So is scrubbing out one's nostrils in a public lavatory sink.
This is all political correctness gone wild. The simpletons who promote this accommodation will have a surprised look on their face after their head is removed and held aloft for all to see.
Muslims make up around 1% of our population. Why is it this nation is so interested in catering to the vast minorities?
Footbaths today, black hoods and swords tomorrow?
You just know someone is going to pee in it
LOL
I could care less if a venue chooses to install foot baths to accommodate its patrons. And if it is so bad to witness (I never have) then I will take my business elsewhere.
And a contrary attitude does seem to be bias against the faith of others.
I do think it is hypocritical of the ACLU and the atheists to not challenge public institutions for funding the installation, but not sure that a stance has yet to be taken on the issue.
We need to lower that percentage to 0.
I wonder what will happen the first time these “foot baths” are used by a non Muslim for a non Muslim purpose.
I wonder why washing one’s pee-pee isn’t part of the ceremonial cleansing by these rag-headed followers of the prophet?
Uh, oh. The unclean infidels daring to wash their tootsies in a wholly contaminated foot bath.
Because it is another way to attack “the establishment,” that is, America’s Judeo-Christian heritage. The Leftists who have been infiltrating American institutions since the days of Woodrow Wilson know that they cannot conquer America by open revolt, so they have been trying for decades to accomplish that through attrition.
The goal of all these Leftists is to strip down everything that is “established” in this country: pride of our founding, of our history, of the wars we’ve fought, of our influence in the world, and strong Judeo-Christian values and ethics and a God-centered worldview. Their goal is to remove all that through ridicule (satire in entertainment and the arts), moral relativism, multiculturalism, and Leftist activism. This is the motive behind the “anti-establishment” movement of the 60’s.
Once all that is established has been removed, chaos follows that vacuum. Stalinist-type government officials then enforce order by imposing a bloodthirsty Marxist government upon the people.
That is uncalled for. You realize that Jesus Christ followed the custom of cleansing, right?
I don't. The ACLU has always been an anti-Christian organization first and foremost. In that light, it will always take on issues that "promote" Christianity in the public square but shy away from issues that have nothing to do with Christianity.
It is. My sisters in law work with Somolian muslims in Minnesota and they said they wash their privates in the sinks in the restroom sinks. But if anyone complains, they tell them to leave them alone.
I think you are right. It is not that the ACLU is pro-Muslim. It is that it is something different than mainstream and thus something to be tolerated and protected.
Activists seem to get off on protecting the different.
I agree, but that doesn’t redefine the hypocrisy. It only explains it.
Let's take what another poster mentioned about holy water stalls being paid for by public money and the "outrage" that would follow. Say these stalls were in fact built. What would happen if a non-Christian person decided to urinate in one? Would that person be charged with a hate crime? Heck, would that person even be charged with any crime? We all know the answer is a firm "NO." Heck, Congress might even fund the act as a work of art (not my original idea, but it applies anyway).
Now I guarantee that if a non-Muslim decided to defile one of these footbaths, they would be charged with every hate crime imaginable.

Foot-washing in regular sinks can be a messy business
Turn around, there's water in the toilet.
