"This is University, it's not a Mosque or a Temple." Ysamin Alibhai Brown telling off Omar Ali of the Federation of Student Islamic Societies on Channel 4 News.What's this all about?
Segregation of males and females because of religious buffoonery; it goes back to a post Free Planet made last month asking Why Do We Legislate For Belief Systems - you know, 'hate crime' legislation and 'right to segregate' legislation, legally sucking up to 'religious dogma' etc. Universities'll always try to allow money into their coffers even if it's sourced via 'religious agenda'.
There's literally NO WAY a Free Planet can support such fascist re-engineering of the last fifty years of women's lib, equal rights and freedom of expression for the sake of Religious Fascism.
You want your faith, good for you; keep it to yourself. You think you have a 'right to faith', you're probably on dodgy ground, as there's NO PROOF in this world for the existence of 'any deity'. Having 'faith' or 'belief' therefore is all fine and well (if that's what rocks your boat) but it doesn't mean it's a) right or b) should be applied to the non-faithful or c) should not have the piss taken out of it by critics, commentators and comedians alike.
All organised religion is just Control of the Masses, never forget that.
ALL FAITH SHOULD BE A TARGET FOR HUMOUR AND DERISION, simple fact.
