UK: Top British Academic Says Muslims Would Be More Tolerant of Others If They Started Drinking Wine...
From Weasel Zippers:
(Daily Star)- A TOP British academic reckons Muslims would be more tolerant if they started drinking wine.
Professor Roger Scruton controversially claims a glass or two would help them to be “gentle with others”. He insisted: “Muslims must learn again to drink and should be piously applying themselves to the task.” Dr Scruton even said “lunatic” preachers such as hook-handed Abu Hamza, 51, Anjem Choudary, 42, and Omar Bakri, 52, had got Islam wrong. Most Muslims shun alcohol because a passage in The Koran brands it “Satan’s handiwork”. But the professor, 65, said great Muslim scholars of history were “winos”. He told wine magazine Decanter: “It is one of the tragedies of our time that those great winos should have ceased to be the leading authorities on how the Holy Book is interpreted."
This "TOP British academic" is sloshed to the core if he honestly believes "a glass or two" of drinking wine could tame the all encompassing doctrine of Islam .
ReplyDeleteBattered victims of alchoholics should have word with this fool.
Yeah...Muslims would be more tolerant if they took Ridalin, too!
ReplyDeleteHa!
Cal
I cannot imagine that a drinking Moslem would be a mellow drunkard.
ReplyDeleteHeh.
ReplyDeleteI see your point.
I still think it's funny.
Here's another thing that would help Muslims, eating bacon. That would make them peaceful for sure.
