Set a reminder on your phone or an alarm clock for 7:58PM Central Time tonight. One short minute of united prayer. Applies to all people of faith and those who aren't but want a better future.

And now, my completely inappropriate and insulting PhotoShop of the prophet Mohammad (pbuh)!

How can I be so insensitive?!?

Hope CAIR (Can't Antagonize Islamic Radicals) and The Religion of Peace don't attack me!

FOX News (MSN): Hamline University professor fired for showing images of Muhammad had warned students in syllabus.

A Minnesota liberal arts professor who was allegedly fired after showing students images of Muhammad in a class about Islamic art warned students about the works in the syllabus.

Erika López Prater, an adjunct professor at Hamline University, issued a syllabus warning students that the class would contain images of holy figures, including the prophet Muhammad and the Buddha, according to a New York Times report Sunday. Students were told they could contact her with any concerns about the course material, but none did, according to the report.

Prater also reportedly warned students that a painting containing an image of Muhammad was going to be displayed a few minutes ahead of time, giving anyone who might be offended by such imagery an opportunity to leave the classroom.

Despite the multiple warnings, a senior student in the class later complained to administrators about the imagery and picked up support from Muslim students who were not in the class, resulting in Prater not being welcomed back to the school and setting off national controversy surrounding academic freedom.

Some people were offended by something they didn't see!

Migrant student, 14-years old, breaks teacher's jaw.

Free West Media: A 14-year-old Syrian immigrant seriously assaulted his Swiss female teacher because she asked him the "wrong" questions.

The youth from the town of Möriken-Wildegg in Switzerland, talked a lot about the Quran, and during recess instructed girls to dress more modestly.

The case has caused shock in the country. Last week, the Argauer Zeitung published the news, that the student from the school broke the jaw of a teacher by punching her repeatedly with his fist.

He did this when she wanted to find out if the Syrian secondary-school student was once again carrying a knife — as he had already done in the past.

This time the issue was taken up by the Weltwoche journalist Alex Baur. According to his research the assault revolves around the 14-year-old “M”.

He allegedly comes from a Syrian family with numerous children, who had arrived in Switzerland five years ago and lives on welfare. The immigrant youth is described as “quite intelligent, self-confident and quick-witted”.

“M” however constantly talks about the Quran. He also requested — “in Allah’s name” — that the girls from the area dress and behave more modestly.
[.]
[The teacher did not touch] the student, and only told him to show her the contents of his pockets. Because of that, the teen attacked her, and, according to eyewitnesses, he hit the 62-year-old female teacher five to six times with a his fist and the edge of his hand.

Additionally, while she was trying to escape, he allegedly kicked her. The teacher, a mother of two adult sons was about to retire. Weltwoche reported that she was still in shock.
[.]
André Schärer, the school district deputy, neither confirmed nor contradicted the report from the Aargauer Zeitung based on anonymous sources contacted by Weltwoche. He could only confirm that the Syrian had stood out from the beginning.

Schärer had also heard that “M” had allegedly told the girls in the recess court to dress more modestly: “There are clearly certain signs that he doesn’t agree with the way we are living our culture.”

It took a week before the incident was made public. The school district deputy insists nevertheless that nobody wanted to sweep the case under the rug[.]
[.]
[P]arents have been complaining that the school wanted to hide the incident. “This isn’t correct. We wrote a letter to the parents during the week following the Youth Festival. Our hands are tied, because of the investigation by the juvenile prosecutor. Even if we wanted to give out more information, we are not allowed to,” Schärer said about the complaints.

Meanwhile, in Nigeria...school principal allegedly molests muslim students using (wearing) Hijab. "Gun-weilding security guards" bar parents from entering.

Unsure how to interpret the wording in this headline and story with their intent using the words "molests" and "molested". Nothing in the story suggests actual "molestation". The story states, "physical abuse" but doesn't define it. Rather than the literal interpretation of "molest", it doesn't appear to fall within the strict definition of inappropriate physical abuse or psychological trauma.

The Guardian: U.I. school principal allegedly molests muslim students using Hijab:

Some students of International School Ibadan (ISI) were yesterday molested and humiliated for adorning hijab (Muslim headscarf) with their school uniform.
  
The ISI Muslim Parents Forum, who bemoaned this act[.]
[.]
A parent, Idris Badaru, narrated his experience, “I took my children to school and parked under the shade beside Idia Hall at about 8.00 am and noticed a small crowd of students gathered about 80 metres or thereabout away from the school gate. My children promptly informed me that accounts was checking payment clearance before allowing them in.
  
“After checking my daughter’s clearance, the security man and Mr. Odewale of the Accounts section were issuing some instructions, which my daughter was not happy with. I moved closer and learnt that they wanted my daughter to remove her hijab before walking into the gate and she refused. I felt enraged as any reasonable man would when his daughter’s honour is violated. Moreover, that space belongs to the University of Ibadan, a Federal institution”.

This was corroborated by two other parents who said that the security personnel of UI under the leadership of the Chief Security officer, carried out the directives of the Principal and were physically assaulting Muslim girls adorning hijabs.  
  
“All efforts by the Muslim Parents Forum representatives to see the Principal or Vice Principal proved abortive as gun-wielding security operatives said they were under instructions not to allow any parent in. ["]

Israel Folau delivers church sermon aimed at transgender children and gays.

Israel Folau

Newshub: Israel Folau, former rugby star, described homosexuality as a sin and claimed the devil was behind primary school children being allowed to decide if they wanted to change gender:

"This is what the devil is trying to do - to instil [sic] into the government, into this world, into society - and it is slowly happening," Folau said in his Sunday sermon at The Truth of Jesus Christ Church in Kenthurst.

"The sad thing is why a lot of people out there that are non-Christians say bad things about the church, is because a lot of the churches allow those things to happen.  

"They say that a man and a man should be able to be married, and there is nothing wrong with it. This buys into the theme of pleasing man rather than pleasing God and standing up for the truth."

CAIR files complaint regarding 2018 incident at Minnehaha Regional Park.

KSTP: CAIR announces plans to file complaint in regard to 2018 Minnehaha Regional Park incident.

The Council on American–Islamic Relations-Minnesota announced Friday that it is filing a complaint with the Department of Human Rights against the Minneapolis Parks and Rec Board in relation to an inaccurate 911 call at Minnehaha Regional Park in July 2018 that resulted in four innocent Somali American youths in handcuffs.

The organization also announced it would be filing a complaint with the Minnesota Department of Administration Data Practices Office.

"We are moving forward with this case because we believe the Minneapolis Park Board Police is acting in bad faith," Jaylani Hussein, director of CAIR-Minnesota, said during a press conference Friday.
[.]
"We believe that this incident could have been dealt with much different response and due care," Hussein said. "We have reached out and done our part to make sure we work with Minneapolis Park Board in order to understand the full scope of the incident and to come to a solution. But we believe since this incident ... Minneapolis Park Board has refused to provide information about this incident and other incidents that have happened that are very similar."

The MPRB issued a statement in response Friday afternoon:

"The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board has responded to CAIR's data requests and has provided them with the public data we can legally provide," it read. "We will review and respond timely to any complaints CAIR files with any federal, state or local agency."

According to police, a 911 caller on July 10, 2018, reported four males holding knives and sticks at the park. The caller said one suspect said he had a gun in his backpack and that the suspects were assaulting the caller's boyfriend.

I have a few questions. What additional information does CAIR feel it is entitled to? Spell it out. What do you believe is being hidden or kept from you?

With the statement: "We believe that this incident could have been dealt with much different response and due care." Okay, fine. Please explain in detail, and with examples, what and how you "believe" the procedure and process should be handled.

CAIR, please explain what you "believe" the process should be when police receive a 911 call like the one described above and when they arrive on-scene, observing unknown and potential threats? Should the cops offer potential suspects candy and donuts and have a cheerful chat with people who may be armed and dangerous? How are the police supposed to know who does and who doesn't present a threat?

This "issue" will go away, I imagine, after the City of Minneapolis ends up paying CAIR a nice chunk of money and the idiot Soy Boy-child Mayor Jacob Frey (Super Lib) orders more "sensitivity training" for those working in the dangerous, and often fatal, field of law enforcement.

McJesus Controversy

The Independent: "Art" of Ronald McDonald as Jesus, in Israel's Haifa Museum sparks protests.

Violent clashes between hundreds of Arab Christians and police erupted in Haifa on Friday after a protest over a piece of art showing a crucified Ronald McDonald titled “McJesus".
[.]
It said the work was part of an exhibit on consumerism that “references mega-corporations’ cynical use of religious symbols.” 

Ma'an News: Haifa Museum displays other offensive "art".

Jesus Christ was depicted as a clown and as a Ken doll, while the Virgin Mary was depicted as a Barbie doll.

The “McJesus,” which was sculpted by Finnish artist, Janei Leinonen, and depicts a crucified Ronald McDonald, went on display in August as part of the Haifa museum’s “Sacred Goods” exhibit.

The display also featured a number of other pieces depicting Jesus Christ, including one as a Ken doll, while the Virgin Mary was depicted as a Barbie doll.

Patheous: Asked to remove the offensive art, Haifa Museum instead addresses violent reactions.

One of the protesters complained that the government was slow to react to their concerns because they were from the Christian minority.

    "If they put up [a sculpture of] Hitler with a Torah scroll they would immediately respond." Thursday, Culture Minister Miri Regev sent Haifa Museum director Nissim Tal a letter calling for the sculpture’s removal."

    "Disrespect of religious symbols sacred to many worshipers in the world as an act of artistic protest is illegitimate and cannot serve as art at a cultural institution supported by state funds."
[.]
...the Haifa Municipality put up a sign at the entrance to the exhibit explaining it contains potentially offensive content.

The museum also condemned the throwing of the molotov cocktail and said any objection to the piece must not be expressed violently.

    "A discourse about art, however complex it may be, must not spill over into violent territory and must be respected – even in charged situations."

Commercialized Christian Holidays

Is it just me, or are Christian holy days the only ones that are uber-commercialized?

You did catch the "Hop In For These Great Deals", right? "Hop In"? I bet they paid big money to an advertising agency for that gem.

I've never seen advertisements for "Super-Savings Big-Discount on all Pools and Spas" during Purim.

I don't see sales of "Buy One, Get One Free" commercializing Passover.

"Mattress Liquidation Sale During Ramadan."  I've never read that.

"Oy Vey! It's A Rosh Hashanah Blow Out Discount Weekend!  Everything Must Go!" Big discounts on yarmulkes and Tzitzits , maybe?  It's just a thought.

And why exclude Atheists? Add an Atheist holiday to the calendar.  "40% Off on Everything, Including Sale Items during Atheist Event Week!"

Why are there no Muhammad Peeps?

It seems a large part of a target market is being excluded. I wonder why?

Have a Blessed Easter.
