Muslim call to prayer to sound at Duke University

[Vanyali]

Do you have a source that states it is still being amplified?

Do you have a source saying it's not?

The article only says that they will be gathering in front instead of the chapel, not that it won't be amplified.

No I don't. I was only asking because given the context of the articles I have read, it would seem that they are no longer going to amplify it. Some of the articles mention serious threats have been made, to the extent that the school has asked students not to identify themselves. Taking that in context with how the articles state the students would gather in the common area in front of the chapel and chant the call to prayer seems to indicate that amplification is not going to take place. I could be wrong of course, it is just how I have interpreted the news. I was just wondering if you had a source that specifically states that they will amplify it from the common area so I could adjust my interpretation of the events.

Nah, just my own interpretation from "no longer amplify from the chapel but instead gather at the [word for common grounds i can't remember]".

Serious treats? It's a private school, if money says they have to do it they do it

Sounds more like people decided to be their own version of terrorists to fight the terrorists

I kinda want to see this..if only to see if a bunch of Muslim students suddenly stop whatever they are doing(taking notes, playing video games, eating bacon, having unprotected sex, drinking, whatever) and start praying in unison.

Like those groups that were treating to rape people if a convicted rapist was signed in a football team :
Monte phyton had it right

FRANCIS: We're gettin' in through the underground heating system here, up through into the main audience chamber here, and Pilate's wife's bedroom is here. Having grabbed his wife, we inform Pilate that she is in our custody and forthwith issue our demands. Any questions?

COMMANDO XERXES: What exactly are the demands?

REG: We're giving Pilate two days to dismantle the entire apparatus of the Roman Imperialist State, and if he doesn't agree immediately, we execute her.

MATTHIAS: Cut her head off?

FRANCIS: Cut all her bits off. Send 'em back on the hour every hour. Show them we're not to be trifled with.

REG: And of course, we point out that they bear full responsibility when we chop her up, and that we shall not submit to blackmail!

COMMANDOS: No blackmail!

We beat the piss out of Duke in Chapel Hill, don't dive a flying fuck what some group of people want to pray about.

[Hooked]

Yay, isn't this great?.

Why did you resurrect a year old thread? Also, enjoy your ban.

[kail]

the topic isn't about religion the topic is about hypocrisy

Have they done anything against Christian students trying to worship their religion?

At 1:15pm Fridays, screenings of that Duke porn chick's latest video will be shown at the Student Centre.

God I wish. They keep taking her videos down on the sites I visit cause of copyright crap.

Meh I can understand the dislike for it, Religion is and should always be, a private affair. Islam is not part of our cultures, there should be no specific loud-speaker event for it, this stops it from being a private affair and becomes a disruptive event, even if its only mildly annoying.


But another thing one might have to consider is that this will only reinforce the perceptions of islamification, totally can't backfire.

.

when Christian students start reciting the lords prayer over a campus loud speaker then I will say something

[TwoNineMarine]
