Catholicism teaches that many things are 'sinful' without there being any biblical evidence to support it. I get the respect thing but to not do those things is not against anything written in the bible.

As a muslim I can clearly re-inforce what Forever is saying. The Shahada is a declaration of faith. And you do not have to say it when entering a church.

Let me tell you what i think and what most probably also think of you. You are a racist and you take great pleasure in creating as many racially orientated threads as you can to stir the pot. Is that clear enough for you or would pictures be better.

Now no doubt you will go running to the mods or red rep me or even send me a nasty pm. Look at my avatar and say does that look like a face that gives a ****.

Re: Do Muslim kids visit churches as part of their education?
 

I wish people would stop slagging people off on this forum/thread, look at me, l am still here, people have different opions, and therefore should NOT be slagged off for what they think.

I say what l think, l may be right or wrong, but l accept what other people say, so try and be civil to each other.

1 Corinthians 11:5 But every woman who prays with her head uncovered disgraces her head. It is exactly the same as if she had a shaved head. Indeed, if a woman's head is not covered let her head be shaved.

Some light hearted humour about Islam, I was reading the Quran and after it describes who a woman can expose herself to it says that : older women not seeking to inspire lust can remove clothes as they wish... but it is preferred that they don't.

Made me chuckle.

Someone check my forehead, I agree with Arthur.
The school should have realised that there are small minded parents who would object to their children learning, and made plans, either have the kids do RE homework to make up for what they're missing out on and make the parents look after their sprogs all day, or they attend other classes' lessons.

the child in question goes to a catholic school Arthur ,it is part of their curriculum to visit other places of worship ,hence it being compulsory ,the mother should know this when she enrolled her child ,imo it's just another case of "selective religion" as i call it

Re: Do Muslim kids visit churches as part of their education?
 

I think an important lesson was missed here - the etiquette for visiting different places of worship varies - including removing footwear in a Hindu temple, males wearing a head covering in a synagogue, etc

- females wearing a scarf in a mosque is just another such example of being polite when visiting, it doesn't constitute 'dressing like a Muslim' , it is just a simple gesture to show respect to the hosts during the visit.

How unfortunate that good manners were, apparently, subverted by other agendas in this particular case - and shame that the educational opportunity was ultimately subsumed by prejudice ...

Re: Do Muslim kids visit churches as part of their education?
 

What l believe in, is that NO one should be forced to do something, they don't want to do, l have beliefs, but l would not force that one anyone else, I am Cof E and my wife and family are catholic, but if l went to my wifes church, l would not be forced to go into that church, therefore l belive the teacher involved in the problem with this child, should go and have his head tested, for common sense.
