Growth of Islam through the political arena in various countries around the world..

It is a growing trend...

You're aware that this is a political show of support for the victims of the christchurch massacre?

and...??

And I guess it's bad to show support for the victims of terrorism...??

Be careful who you mix with. This comes from the newsletter of Fraser Anning, an Australian Senator well known for his white supremacist views. Anning was recently officially censured by the Australian Senate for his comments in relation to the Christchurch massacre.

This so-called "Islamisation of the West" was nothing more than a show of solidarity, by all New Zealanders, for the victims of the Christchurch massacre.

To use this as a piece of anti-Islamic propaganda is nothing short of disgusting.

It's not just wearing scarves, they want the kids to fast as well. What next, stopping traffic in the street to pray to Allah? This is how it works folks, this is indoctrination.

Yeah, what kind of crazy religion places dietary restrictions on its followers? [/sarcasm]

It's from 8.30 to 3 pm. That's not a fast, that's a late lunch.

Also unislamic because children aren't supposed to fast, but whatever...

May I ask what "other religion" refers to?

 

[Nithavela]

May I ask what "other religion" refers to?

Every single one.

I'm not aware of a religion that doesn't somehow regulate the eating behaviour of its adherents.

Oh.. you meant my religion? Discordian.

That "crazy" part was facetious, by the way. I'm not actually calling religions crazy for controlling how their followers eat.

 

[Romans 8]

Every single one.

They want them to fast for Allah. It's absurd.

Why don't you put down agnostic instead of "other"?

No one was forcing Islam on students. Students (and many other NZ women) voluntarily used the head scarf as a visible symbol of their support for, and solidarity with, the victims of the Christchurch massacre and the Islamic community as a whole.

New Zealand, and it's Prime Minister, have provided an outstanding example of how an entire country can come together to support its citizens under difficult circumstances.

I understand what you're thinking. And I think your heart is in the right place. But there's more to this than what meets the eye. I don't think discussing this with atheists is going to go anywhere though unfortunately.

I remember as a child, the muslim community stayed in the middle east. Not any more, the world now has to deal with it in almost every country of the world. Political Islam

We are hearing about identifiable "customs" in the manner of killings that indicate what faction performed the deadly task. The Media taped mouth piece are not to declare who did it if they are Muslims. So we must now go by the weapons of choice, the cry before deed, the object of hate, and other hints as to who did it.

Once in the political arena, the same demands are demanded, and they have become more active in getting into the political arena to make these demands. https://www.smh.com.au/politics/fed...eral-and-state-elections-20151116-gl0app.html

Islam has been a slow trickle to start, grown and then with the recent "migration" across Europe, overwhelmed many countries. Its political strength has also grown. Islamic Party of Britain

It must have been a long time since you were a child--Islam has been widespread in Africa and Asia for 1400 years.
