i presume any muslim newsreaders in the BBC wont be able to wear a head scarf without an uproar. Something makes me think otherwise. If its christian it needs to be suppressed so we dont offend minorities, if its those minorities themselves then its promoting muliculturalism and learning about other people. hmmm. smacks of hypocrisy to me.

it all reminds me of a neurotic houswife franticaly cleaning her ornaments whilst there's a riot in the street out side...it's all fine as long as the royal doulton is dusted....it's just nonsense...political correctness is basicaly dishonest in nature...it acts like the truth (what ever that may be) is a stray dog that no one wants in their home in case it makes a mess on their pristine carpet...

Am I on Candid Camera?! :shifty:

:p

:down: We cant wear jewels that represend our religion anymore? in our own country on our own TV channel?

Who is that idiot that ''thinks'' wearing an cross has an insulting result against muslims? WTF!?!

now this brings on my steam lets see.

I,m Dutch and this is what I noticed, but I think that in other countries this is happening as well:

*Are allowed to represent their religion by clothing or jewelry
*They can build a lot of mosque
*On dutch televesion in the afternoon there are programs SUBTITLED IN ARABIC!
*They can insults us in many ways and get away with it.
*In holland they are planning to build a MUSLIM HOSPITAL!
*They wanted, (lucky that didnt happend) an Squar where they can express their religion, beating the wifes and stuff:stare:

We in arabic countries:

*are not allowed to express our religion in any kind (clothes or symbols)
*Cant have as many Churches there. , in some country NONE!
*If we say something that is true, but they find it insulting they create a mayor rampage about it.


Well my meaning about all this Crap is, I find it Enough already , In holland I couldnt feel safe on the streets. My friend's friend got stabbed and died of it because they wanted his mobile phone. He got arrested and the parents of the arab criminals said '' HE HAD THE FULLY RIGHT TO DEFEND HIMSELF'' :x Now from what? for not giving his own mobile phone to him?

We in holland are putting Millions in an program to help them to Adjust in our country, but most part they refuse to adjust themself and so I call it a waste of money. And they dont even behave, they do what they want and dont give a single sh!t what we think about it, You know what I say? ''If you dont behave, Get ur ass back to your own country and to that crap you do here over there!''

Arabic Subtitles on dutch channel, I find this ridiculious, we are sending them free to learn the dutch language. here In spain there is not channel with Dutch subtitles nor English. I had to learn first before I could understand where they talked about on TV. So why ruining the screen with subtitles when they have to learn dutch.

IF someone says ''The Muslim religion is ridiculious'' is in big trouble, and the funny part about it , HE'S RIGHT , it is a Stupid religion, and they even want that we the western country must also follow the lines of the Muslim religion, WHAT!?!
just see today the day how much influence they have in our way of living , to be right , I think we are living in fear, because no one is doing something about this mayor problem. I think if we prohibited the building of mosques and people expressing the muslim religion via clother and jewelry at the beginning , they wouldnt stay long or even not even coming over here.

Now also I see on Tv those Muslim fellas , screaming on an protest to stop DISCRIMINATION, Fine by me , but You muslims first :D and Adjust in our country please? if not , I will keep calling those ALLAAAH AKBAAR screaming muslim dogs , a bunch of idiots till the end of my life.

just my thoughts though, sorry if it went OT

Let's call it a draw. :p

Yes the BBC should be ashamed of themselves for wanting to present the NEWS in an impartial manner.

I suggest you don’t watch the BBC anymore. If you are that upset about it, switch the channel. Get cable or satellite TV. Watch the 700 Club. I am sure you can find plenty of Christian symbols there.

One thing I would like to know - was it

a.) a demonstrative oversized cross, ten centimeters or bigger, worn with a clear intention to represent a given religious or political or ideological or any other kind of agenda, and an "Amen!" on her lips after each report finished reading?

b.) or was it more likely one of these miniature crucifixes that are worn by so many people for no other reason than habit and using it as a fashionable ascessoir that can be bought at thousands of streets stands, or because it was a gift my a caring grandmother? Maybe that is why she was allowed to wear it for many years before, then?

If b.), then I don't know what the big show is about, and why.

And if a.), then I don't know either - isn't Britain a nation of Christian heritage and Western culture and has always been since the celtic and druid religions withdrew?

The latter question maybe must be asked about the BBC, too, without the positive answer so very much obvious, maybe.

The BBC news sucks up to Islam so is that impatial?

The BBC loonies who came out with this PC Crap are left wing Dumbo's who waste the BBC licence fee but that's another subject.

To my mind, the BBC produces the best news, on the telly, radio and Web.

This wasn't the BBC telling Fiona Bruce she can't wear her cross, it was one part of a discussion on religious symbols appearing on a state broadcast network.

So quit with this horrible inflation.

maybe you think its the best news because you agree with its views.

I never find myself nodding along with a newsreader, if that's what you mean?

I prefer the BBC for sheer scale and scope of coverage. Having lived in America for the last two months, I am disgusted daily by the amount of news that is left out of broadcasts/websites.

Update

Clear cut case of PC Madness.

I'm right in the middle of Melanie Philip's book "Londonistan". Very sobering read, and this is a perfect example of exactly what she's talking about. I can only imagine where England will be in another 10 years, given the appeasers, PC judges run amok, and Imams preaching treason and sedition with nary a whisper from the powers that be.

Plus, I'm guessing there's a little anti-Christian element to this particular element as well.

Tail wagging the dog.
 

71 % of the population of the UK is Christian.

The next closest group would be Islam at 2.7 %.

Yet some people here would have you believe the British Broadcasting Company is partial to Muslims. I do not understand the motive behind this belief. Why would one believe the BBC would want to be impartial to 71% of the UK?

BTW

If you believe in Democracy, Then you have to understand it:

One of the fundamental things a modern democracy must do, is protect the minority from the majority. That is why you have to have a bill of rights that apply equally to all citizens of a democracy.

Indeed. :up:
