so much for the outcry about christians only - how many of u folk actually see the inside of a church week in week out?

and how many of " YOU FOLK " adhere to no gambling and no alcohol...

raver - exactly but the point i'm making is that people who arent religious at all suddenly use the christian day only POV when it suits them and if there was one they probably wudnt attend to save their lives... the muslims goin to this wont b the likes of me but i know my sis's who are religious really did wanna go albeit for previous made plans. i sure as hell wouldnt want to be the guy lighting up a joint in the middle of a day like that - the sufi's *religious guys* wud shame them to hell!! *L*

PPl do this everywhere in north america...Canadas wonderland in Toronto is one of the biggest theme park they have.
As well in california muslim unity day..
altho the FBI is comin to check out the california event...its not that big of a deal.
muslims like to have fun as well. :P

Bull S........ Talk about a storm in a teacup, did you actually read the article or just look at the daily mail on a regular basis and then make your mind up. As mani said it was booked by a muslim organisation for the day and any organisation can book it even the condecending church groups or gay and lesbian groups, even you if you had the akers, then you could make your own rules up for the day.

This is what causes racist friction though.

Whats stopping the muslims going to Alton Towers any other day of the year? Or can they not have 'fun' when other religions are there?

mani · 20-07-2006, 18:58

i always said if i won the lotto i'd book alton towers out and get my friends and family to go there all paid - how awesome wud that be?!

didnt tom cruise book out disney land too for his kids to enjoy the rides in peace?

morgan_brotherz · 20-07-2006, 19:02

Yes.. as did Michael Jackson. But this is completely different to that.

This is a british country.. and im to be denied access to a theme park to make way for muslims only?

Thats like.. English people only in all thee American Theme parks! The Americans wouldnt like it!

mani · 20-07-2006, 19:04

but y shud it cause racist friction?

does it cause friction when gay's book it out?

or when the labour party does?

morgan_brotherz · 20-07-2006, 19:04

A muslim association has booked the theme park for the day so only people of their religion can go to it! Its f*cking ridiculous! Thats what it is.

Yet.. would it go down well if a Christian association booked a major attraction for the day at Pakistan? And all none Christians were unable to attend? I think not..

So in other words.. for this event Alton Towers ARE restricting their facilities to none members of this religion.

Wouldn't think this will apply to private functions though, would it ?

mani · 20-07-2006, 19:06

y wudnt they? if a private org from england booked out disney land they'd say fair enough.

morgan_brotherz · 20-07-2006, 19:09

The point im getting to mani is that its an association which has booked Alton Towers for muslims only. When was the last time an association booked Alton Towers for all Christians etc? It doesnt happen, because it would be deemed racist towards the muslim population!

u know morgan i'm just gonna stop arguing about this with u - now ur goin on pakistan? *LOL* ignorance is just a magic word for u...

*L*
