UK - Lessons in hate found at leading mosques

This happens around the world.

"Books calling for the beheading of lapsed Muslims, ordering women to remain indoors and forbidding interfaith marriage are being sold inside some of Britain’s leading mosques, according to research seen by The Times....

Extremist literature, including passages supporting the stoning of adulterers and waging violent jihad, was also found on sale at many other mosques regarded as mainstream institutions. "

The author of the report seems confused however.

"The report said: “On the one hand, the results were reassuring: in only a minority of institutions – approximately 25 per cent – was radical material found.

“What is more worrying is that these are among the best-funded and most dynamic institutions in Muslim Britain – some of which are held up as mainstream bodies. Many of the institutions featured here have been endowed with official recognition.” "

There is nothing reassuring about any of this. Just because they didn't find more doesn't mean there isn't more. And the fact that they did find such material in the top mosques is very worring, but not surprising if you're a regular reader of mine. Hardliners taking over mosques is nothing new.

UK Islamic schools teach that Jews and Christians are apes and pigs. Similar teachings have been found in Islamic schools in the US.

What all this tells us is that most people are in denial about the religion of Islam or they prefer not address a religious problem - and Islam is a problem.
