The Insidious Advancement of Islam in Australia

[brewerb]

From yesterday's ABC Australia news...

Swinburne University in Melbourne has decided to close
its Hawthorn campus prayer room on Fridays—the Muslim
holy day when congregational prayers are held—forcing
dozens of Muslim students to pray elsewhere, and has
sparked outrage among almost 400 members of the
Swinburne Islamic Society.

A spokesperson for the university said the breaches
included some members of the Swinburne Islamic
Society refusing to allow the university-appointed
Muslim chaplain to lead prayers, as well as "encouraging
attendance from large numbers of people not associated
with the university".

President of the Swinburne Islamic Society Tabish Rather
said the chaplain's presence on 11 October was "unnecessary"
and upset the students who wanted one of their own to
lead the prayer.

He also said the time restrictions on the Multi Faith Centre
from 5AM to 11PM meant many students had nowhere to
do early morning prayers during Ramadan, as the nearest
mosque was located 13 kilometres from campus.

Muslim student Fatima said, "It's a chill safe space, especially
for us as hijabi women because it's that one place where you
feel like your modesty is being guarded".

—These sorts of divisive activities are typical of the Australian
   Muslim "community", who are never satisfied with the societal
   conditions they encounter in a largely secular population.  And
   they expect—no, demand of us—that we put up with every absurd
   element that's part of their obnoxious, anti-social religion.

I suggest they start their own university, problem solved,.................... until they start rejecting non-muslim students.
