Taxpayers paying for a giant mosque

Do you know any muslems, I think not otherwise you would know my views to be true. Hypocrisy abounds, 'white tarts' are OK after wifey hours.

This country is Christian for the most part, not Muslim so why is it that Islam is being treated any differently, why is it that Muslims can have a huge Mosque built especially for them (in what will be very valuable land) but no Cathedral or Church for the Catholics/Protestants, Synagogue for the Jews etc... The Olympics are supposed to be for all, not just some people.

I've not seen anything that says that the Christians cannot build a new church or cathedral (indeed, Middlesbrough had a new cathederal built in the 1980s IIRC), or that Jews cannot build a synagogue.

Just because the Muslims want to build a mosque, and have the money to build one, doesn't make it wrong. If the church wants to build a new cathedral, then I suggest that they fund one - the CofE and the Catholics have plenty of money that they could spend on new buildings if they wanted to.

Do you know every Muslim in Britain? While your experiences of the religion are obviously negative, a great number of Muslim men don't feel the need to go and shack up with "White Tarts".

You're a bigot.

It's more to do with the young single males actually. They can't have sex with other muslim young women as this brings dishonour and loss of dowry on the girls family, however they need to find an outlet for they're sexual tension.

White girls fit the bill. It happens, go to Keighley or Bradford.


To put some perspective on this, in 16th century Florence the young men had no outlet for their sexual needs as the girls were off limits and they could be lawfully killed for deflowering so they turned to each other i.e. homosexual practices. However when the Florentines lost one of their battle the city elders blame the effeminate young males and their gay practices for this. To put an end to this they opened up 300 brothels to make their men men again.

Here endith the history lesson.

They're?

I think a large and beautiful building would reflect well on the area. Plus, having the largest mosque in Europe should be a source of pride.

But it would be nice if we could all use it (see my earlier post about mint tea and steam baths...only partly tongue-in-cheek). If it could only be seen as an accessible place for everyone, rather than a shady hang-out for apprentice terrorists.

Are you certain they are muslim or are you going by the colour of their skin? Bigot! Grow a brain or get off here.

yes why not! add on a community centre, a cafe and a gym. It would be great....but would the saudi's go for it?

They might if a prince gets a fighter jet as 'commission' in his back pocket.

bugger the saudis! we should build it ourselves...

some kind of building to enhance understanding and ease tensions. some facility that would be used by everyone in a spirit of fellowship and understanding.

buggered (again) if I can think what though!
