how does the question relate to ethics ?

[Hildy]

There were more questions:

■According to research and news reports within the past 2 years, what are some of the changes the United states has made to policies concerning the treatment of Muslim and Arab members of society?
■List two to three characteristics of "Orientalism". ...

My friend just got her first assignment for her "ETHICS" class...

What is the difference between a Muslim and an Arab?

From the Arab point of view: religious versus ethnic.

From the Muslim point of view: human being versus slave animal.

[Krankor]

Huh? One’s a religion, one’s a nationality.

[GeronL]

Muslim = An adherent of the faith of Islam

Arab = The “ethnicity” of those from or desended from the Arabian Peninsula

[mrreaganaut]

That’s a stupid question for an ethics class, since it’s a historico-linguistic question: an Arab is someone who speaks Arabic, while a Muslim is a religious follower of Mohammad. There are Christian Arabs, and Chinese Muslims; what does any of this have to do with ethics?

What is the difference between a Muslim and an Arab?

The bucket.

[highpockets]

Arabs are citizens of a multitude of Mid Eastern countries.

A Muslim is not tied to any country.

Jihad is a full time job and being a constructive citizen takes too much time away from killing non-Muslims.

[mnehring]

Arab describes the region one comes from both geographically and ethnically, Muslim describes a belief system.

From an ethics standpoint, the key difference is that the latter is a choice and is variable while the former is simply a statement of fact that one doesn’t have a choice over.

I would suggest she approach it from a woman’s perspective.

Might be able to show the flaws in a politically correct way.

Whatever you say it is Professor Indoctrination. Just let me graduate massah.

[Maine Mariner]

This is an easy question. Find out what the professor thinks, re-write it in your own words and appeal to biases and prejudices of the professor. Guaranteed grade: A.

[Ouderkirk]

Being an Arab is an ethnicity of distinct lineage to the Arab peninsula.

Muslim is a Mohammadan.

[Rodamala]

Ethics class was cancelled and replaced by ethnics.

[dirtymac]

An Arab is descendant or member of a ethnic tribe originally from the subcontinent of Arabia.

A Muslim is someone who wants to kill you.

[Newtoidaho]

Muslims prefer the suicide vest while arabs prefer the IED.
