U.N. wrongly forbids criticism of Islam

mrgroothand, you mean that it sounds "inconceivable." You, as a human being, are capable of being "incredulous," but a statement or proposal cannot. That said, you are correct, and I am shocked to see how much you and I agree on this issue. You, and a good number of other observant individuals, and I, are sounding an alarm that not many are heeding. When universities "protect" muslims by creating single-gender gym and pool hours, but will not "protect" Christians from politically correct dorm-live "codes"; when hospitals "protect" muslims by allowing female nurses to scrub only up to their wrists (b/c baring their arms is grounds for stoning, or something), but don't "protect" their patients from MRSI; when local governments "protect" muslims by allowing them to broadcast the call to prayer over several square miles, but do not "protect" any other religious group's right to less-intrusive expression, then there is a problem. These are not principled stands; these (would-be) legislative bodies are scared of muslims, as well they should be, since it is difficult to engage in spirited debate once your friendly neighborhood imam has had your head removed from your shoulders...

You can speak about and study any religion in public school, except Christianity..

There should be no surprise at all that the United Nations is striving to prohibit criticism of Islam. Not only criticism, but even discussion. There are 57 Moslem nations which comprise a huge united voting block. Not a single one of those Moslem countries has accepted the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights -- and the United Nations permits that to continue without any protest. In fact, ALL 57 Moslem countries subscribe to the "Cairo Declaration of Human Rights in Islam" which explicity states that Islam is superior to all other religions and that the ONLY source of "human rights" is Islamic sacred law (shariah). You can Google the text to see for yourself. This is the clearest evidence that Islam has a set of basic values that are just incompatible with the values of the rest of the world. For the United Nations to permit this makes a mockery of the term "united nations". They are not united at all.

We and other civilized nations should have pullled out of the UN years ago. They accept our dues (which is larger than any other nation's or even numerous anti-American members added together. It is up to US, the average citizen to oppose the Islamification of our society and schools. They CHOSE to come here KNOWING our culture was in direct opposition to theirs.
