And We Know Who Those 'Some People' Are...

An Australian school has adopted a policy allowing male Muslim students to refuse to shake hands with women.
Well, that's helping them contribute to society. But wait! It's not the school's fault!
A spokesman told the newspaper: “The Department of Education require­s its schools to recognise and respect the cultural, linguistic and religious backgrounds of all students, with the intent to promote an open and tolerant attitude towards a diverse Australian community."
You idiot! This is not doing that, is it? Even a top Muslim cleric thinks you've gone too far!
Former Islamic Council of Victoria secretary Kuranda Seyit said the hadith "shouldn't apply in a school context".
“Students should be able to shake hands with the teacher or the principal, or receive a greeting from a visitor to the school," he told the paper.
Some people take it too seriously.
And I'm beginning to wonder if they aren't the bigger enemy....

"The policy is reportedly in response to a teaching in the Hadith which states, 'It is better to be stabbed in the head with an iron needle than to touch the hand of a woman who is not permissable to you."
The answer is simple. "Hello Ahmed. This lady is your teacher for the next year, I have in my hand an iron needle and a hammer. You can either shake her hand or follow your Hadith. Your choice."
From experience, Muslims only follow the Koran when it suits them or they know they will gain an advantage over others.
