Islam is a religion not a race.

Before the Human Rights Act some Muslim took his case to court under the Race Discrimination Laws. His case was thrown out because Islam, like Christianity is not a race. Jews and Sikhs are races.
Now due to the UK intepretation of the Human Rights Act, Christians and Muslims can only claim of religious discrimination however a Sikh now can claim both race and religious discrimination.
I've had lots of fun pointing out to Muslims mostly from Pakistan who claim race discrimination when what they are claiming is religious discrimination.

I suppose you are right - religious discrimination is a better term and it is good the law recognised it.
