Thread Name: BS: Muslim prejudice
Subject: RE: BS: Muslim prejudice
Mike,
I am questioning the wisdom, even the right of people to claim that Muslim culture is an any way a cause of sexually predatory behaviour.
I set out my own personal experiences of racism in England (alongside an extremely well documented case), and asked if, as Keith has seen fit to make definitive pronouncements on Muslim culture based on hearsay evidence, I am nor entitled to offer a similar opinion based on my own experiences - apparently not, from his 'Little Englander' response.
Don has just pretty well summed up my feelings on the matter.
".....try to live as a Christian in Saudi"
Remembering how the British Empire bulldozed national cultures and identities into non-existance for centuries.... the terms 'glass houses and 'stones' comes thundering into view - or Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee even!
