Airport Body Scanners Violate the Teachings of Islam, Says Muslim Group
CNSNews.com ^

Posted on 02/12/2010 8:45:42 AM PST by Commonsensecommonman

The full body scanners that are all the rage at the world’s finest airports will probably soon quietly disappear. The reason; Muslims do not like them. In an article on CNSNews.com headlined “Airport Body Scanners Violate the Teachings of Islam, Says Muslim Group” we hear from Muslim scholars that apparently were not consulted prior to scanner installation. They say, “The Qur'an has commanded the believers, both men and women, to cover their private parts and to be modest in their dress.” Since our government as well as most others around the world will do anything to avoid offending Muslims the scanners will have to go.

Read your own Bible, particularly the New Testament Epistles, and notice words like MODEST, PURE, CHASTE, DISCRETE, etc.

You can use a Crudens, Strongs, or Young’s concordance, and some editions of the Bible are indexed for these words.

Hi. Headline changes, alone, aren’t logged to history. Only changes to the main body are. Thanks.

Sounds like Muslims will be taking the bus, from now on . . . .

Good idea. Muslim only busses, so they can only blow themselves up.

I guess this means that devout Muslims should stay off airplanes.
I'm OK with that.

Nope. Sounds like they will manage to avoid the body search. PC.

That's highly unlikely imo. If Muslims are offended by the scanners, I imagine that they'll either have to choose to abide by them or not fly.

I love optimistic people. So cute.

I don’t like the scanners either (at all!). But, if I thought it would keep the Muslims from flying, I’d be first in line for my scan. But I don’t think it will stop them, they just like to screech about religious discrimination.

The Koran also forbids rendering a human image
