Comment on Public Prayer: Bigotry and Beauty by Wilful

Wilful — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 18:43:29 +0000

The lack of comments is due to the Mail filtering them out, not on account of people not posting them. It has not been updated since early this afternoon. It may or may not be, but often they just don’t allow any more comments to appear on the article. Perhaps they (at the the Mail) were alarmed by the gist of the comments, and were expecting something else, since they seem to be swinging towards the pro-diversity camp.
As for your comment about ‘choice’, it is not about that at all. If there was not enough room in the mosque, there are two nearby mosques. Perhaps ask why on that one day, there were so many – a deliberate show of strength perha?
Secondly, you might ask where all the women are.
Thirdly, you might note that in petty-rules Britain today, nobody other than praying Muslims would be allowed to block a street in this manner – they would be moved on by the police, therefore there is a strong perception that there is one rule for them and another for everybody else.
Fourthly, British culture and society is based on Christian tenets, whether people realise that or not and like it or not, and it is considered vulgar and boastful to pray in the street.
Surely the ‘bigots’ here are those who see fit to impose their culture on us, whether we want it or not. In the land where manners and politeness are everything, this sight is extremely insulting to many people, and yet laws about ‘insulting behaviour’ do not apply where there is a legally protected group such as this.
Moreover, this kind of behaviour is likely to lead to more intolerance, not less, which is perhaps why such public prostration displays are now unlawful in France.
