    Yet more demands for special treatment from muslims

    I am not splitting hairs, if as Creaky has said that the largest growing group our those non religious, then how can there be greater religious driven decisions similar to those discussed on this thread. How do soberly dressed middle class Muslim men try to effect the governance of some of our...

    I think you're confusing numbers with influence, that is the key point here, although I suspect both our increasing. Again I think you underestimate many peoples grievances and you seem to infer some underlying racism that for most doesnt exist, there is however a tendency to offer Islam a...

    Well I think it does. If any one religion becomes influential and numbers tend to dictate this then of course it is relevant, its silly not to acknowledge this.

    I wonder if as a %, if the Muslim population has proportionately increased or decreased and how does this then compare with the other faith groups. I am sure that if this indicator was important then that might offer a greater insight ( I do not know the answer ) but I suspect it might yeild a...

    Thats quite something to compare a decision based on a religious doctrine to the health and wellbeing of another child, it represents the disproportionate importance that you seem to hold for the sensitivity of Muslims, something I doubt you would offer so much to other faiths. Of course we...

    It is a demand driven by religion otherwise why comply and if that in turn increases costs why would you expect those that did not contribute to that increase be denied choice of what they eat at their non religious school ? Catholics same.

    With your underlying logic wouldnt you expect other schools to do the same, if I suspect that they dont then your non meat on a Friday chums do not seem to be demanding or being catered as those wishing not to eat pork !

    Some drivel talked here, it would be strange not have a view on Islam in the West and its consequences, it seems an absolute delusion not to even acknowledge some problems. You can quip about 'closed minds' and rather tedious unfunny 'prehistoric analogies' but if the World/UK is to change then...

    I agree with nearly all of your points except for the last bit. Many when offering a wholly reasonable views on the lack of western Muslim integration and its effects, then nearly always feels obliged to counter it with a 'rise in the extreme right'. Accepting this perhaps is happening in...

    No doubt the Muslim family are categorised as 'moderate', so be gentle they are the voice of reason within their community.
