The director of the Islamic Studies Center at Duke is 'sick to my stomach' over Muslim prayer controversy
The director of the Islamic Studies Center at Duke University, which canceled plans to broadcast a weekly call to Muslim prayers from its famed chapel amid intense controversy and threats, said Friday that he was "sick to my stomach" and disappointed by the episode.
"I am disappointed, because Id like to think we are better than this...better than being intimidated and pressured, '' Omid Safi, director of the program, said in an email to the Los Angeles Times.

First, I'd like to know if he has a mouse in his pocket...or if this is the Obama 'we,' by which he means, 'you.'
Second, Muzzies are all for intimidation...just ask a certain French satirical magazine.
"We're going to rape your women and cut your head off if you don't convert to Islam."
If you don’t like it, you’re welcome to leave Mr Safi. When Christians can attend church in Saudi Arabia, we’ll talk more about tolerance.
Poor guy, he should move to a country where the call to prayer is blasted from the minarets.
” Do liberals ever think through how inconsistent their positions are on various issues???”
If they could think, they wouldn’t be liberals.
You mean, like Muslims?
Agree. These Muslim asses need to leave this country. The liberal idiots and Obama’s progressive commie pals know zip about this nations history or they would have known what Jefferson said about Muslims.
Whoever made the decision to play the muslim prayer music at Duke should be FIRED.
Today.
Well isn't that RICH!
There's total consistency.
Western Civilization $ucks.
The rest is like a poker game.
When Christians can worship in your mosques, we can talk. That chapel was dedicated to the worship of the Triune God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. That Duke should have even suggested that a heathen god could be worshiped there tells us how far that university has fallen.
“I am disappointed, because Id like to think we are better than this...better than being intimidated and pressured, ‘’
Who on earth would think it’s A-ok to broadcast a muslim call to prayer from a Christian cathedral? These scholl leaders can’t claim ignorance, leaving stupidity as the only explanation. Either that or they are muslims themselves.
Well I am sick to my stomach about Muslim terrorism killing so many innocent people. Does he really want to go there and have this pissing contest about how outraged he is vs. How outraged the civilized world is about Islam???
Muslim GO HOME!
But he's not a Muslim. You racist.
“We are better than this.” - Elijah Cummings
Why can’t these throwback jackasses put their call to prayer on a podcast or short range radio station? You know instead of creating noise pollution everyone is forced to listen to?
Let your ‘flock’ show up at a closed hall with soundproof walls and once the doors are closed play you filth for your little terrorists alone to hear
I’m sick to my stomach at the thought that I would have to hear it.
And STAY home!
Mosques also sexually segregate men and women.
