  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Fake News: The lawsuit in Strasbourg over Easter

2024040710521485762.png


The screenshot being circulated is a 2016 post claiming that preacher Anjem Choudary said in an interview with the Daily Mail that "the 1978 Spanish Constitution states that Spain is a secular state and that no denomination will have statehood" and that "carrying out all the Christian ceremonies and liturgies during Holy Week in Spain is an offense to the thousands of Muslims."

However, there is no trace of any interview in the Daily Mail or any other media outlet in which Choudary cites the Spanish Constitution or calls for a ban on Holy Week in Spain.

Ridiculous. Freedom of religion is a basic human right, which may include processions.

If it’s fake I redact my earlier comment, other than freedom of religion is a basic human right.
