Islamic Awareness Month. I didn’t know we had or even needed one of those. Sounds like some kind of @$$kissin’ to me.

shouldn't the Christian chuch bells also be rung on school properties when it's time to pray?

Why is it Islam is allowed to stick their evil cult in everyones face while Christianity is forbidden from doing the same thing?

Where is the UCLU and their team of religion hating lawyers? If this was Christianity, they'd be suing the school for allowing religion on the school grounds.

I think most of us became painfully aware of Islam on 9/11.

When they take over, that mutant Marxist lesbian midget will be the first to have her head sawed off with a rusty knife.

They're not scared the Christians will blow up their buildings and murder them in their sleep.

This is the 21st century. Tell them to text-message the call to prayer.

I just don't understand this necessity for any call to prayer being instituted in any city within the United States of America.

This whole part of the Islamic faith was instituted centuries ago. Haven't these guys ever heard of text message alerts! Why disrupt an entire community, town, or city for the needs of a few?

The school mulla....er...admins wouldn't like my response to this kind of idiocy.

I'd gather a group of students together and have them recite 5 times a day (that just happened to coincide with the howler monkey yowling) The Lords Prayer, together and with enthusiasm.

And just let them even try to stop us...

You either fight these mohammedan incursions or you accept that your children and their children will be at best dhimmies and at worst converts to the mohammedan abomination.

commemoration of Islamic Awareness Month

Oh, I could have so much fun with that. That Dutch PM's movie should be a part of the festivities.

Maybe we Christians are jealous because church bells on Sunday morning don’t see crowds heading toward the chapel.

"It serves as constant reminder of when we have to pray, because prayer itself is a reminder of our religion and how we practice it,"

Like beheadings, amputations, honor-killings....

Interesting that they would pick March which is used to celebrate all things hellenic including Greek Independence day (march 25) when a PRIEST in 1821 raised the modern Greek flag in defiance fo the ottoman occupation.

Kaleena Salgueiro said that although she could not understand the words in Arabic, the call was "pretty" and "very melodic."

it always gives me the heebie-geebies...

we in the 21st Century have these nifty little devices called “watches”.

They have them, and some pretty high-tech ones that tell you what the direction of Mecca is no matter where you are. The calls are antiquities -- like church bells, only much more annoying.

"Kaleena Salgueiro said that although she could not understand the words in Arabic, the call was "pretty" and "very melodic." She said it reminded her of chanting in a monastery."

Typical stupid, ignorant westerner. here's what that "pretty" Arabic chanting translated into english sounds like:

Qur'an:9:112 "The Believers fight in Allah's Cause, they slay and are slain, kill and are killed."

Qur'an:9:29 "Fight those who do not believe until they all surrender, paying the protective tax in submission."

Ishaq:325 "Muslims, fight in Allah's Cause. Stand firm and you will prosper. Help the Prophet, obey him, give him your allegiance, and your religion will be victorious."

Qur'an:8:39 "Fight them until all opposition ends and all submit to Allah."

Qur'an:8:39 "So fight them until there is no more Fitnah (disbelief [non-Muslims]) and all submit to the religion of Allah alone (in the whole world)."

sing it in "pretty" sounding arabic. even if a Muzzy does this standing right next to a dumb westerner, they will smile and think it's "pretty".
