Prof fired for showing picture of Muhammad

[Sunni Man]

Then they should not be taking art classes either

Incorrect
Muslims can paint and display pictures of inanimate objects like lakes, houses, mountains, bridges, etc.
Just not people and other living creatures.

You think that's still universally true?

You will not find pictures or statues inside of a Mosque.
Also, muslim people do not display pictures of people or other living creatures inside their homes.

It's like those who believe in the so-called "rules" about not wearing white pumps before Memorial Day. It's just a bunch of silly crap people do because others are doing the same silly crap.

The same should go in regards to displaying the image of a known thief, murderer, rapist and child molester. If people get bent out of shape when they see an image of a life-long criminal, that is THEIR problem.

 

[Sunni Man]

Providing special privileges to Muslims is not fair to other employees.

It's not a privilege but an accommodation provided per U.S. law.

Wrong.

Art includes all of those and many other things especially other humans. You do not get to tailor what you learn to your specific restrictions.
Deal with being offended by challenges to your beliefs or stay out of school

Yes, it's a prohibition followed by the vast majority muslims.
I've attend services in many mosques and have never seen a picture displayed.

I have seen photos displayed in public buildings and family homes in Arabia. I also remember how irate Muslims were over the Piss Christ art exhibit. Seems to me Muslims have pretty good judgement.

Which is fine for their homes and mosques.

But like everyone else when you leave the home or mosque they have to adapt to a world which does not respect or care about their beliefs. This ESPECIALLY includes universities.

Why should Muslim rights trump other people's rights?

 

[Sunni Man]

Why should Muslim rights trump other people's rights?

So other peoples rights should trump a muslims rights?

 

[RetiredGySgt]

So other peoples rights should trump a muslim rights?

there is no right to not be offended retard

 

[Soupnazi630]

So other peoples rights should trump a muslim rights?

In this case, No one else is demanding the right not to be offended.

Not the same thing or even close

 

[Sunni Man]

Most mosques display beautiful geometric tile patterns inside and outside.

 

[Soupnazi630]

And?? ..

No one has such a right

The muslim is wrong

 

[Soupnazi630]

Most mosques display beautiful geometric tile patterns inside and outside.

Most art clssses include protrayals of other humans.

Stay in the mosque or deal with it

 

[Sunni Man]

That's for a court to decide.

 

[Soupnazi630]

No it is not,

There is no such accomadation.
