Imnotdutch said:"Mosque is more important than school"
This is what a 12 year old kid told me at school this week.
The boy in question is a muslim who is always creating havoc. His excuse for not doing after school detentions is that he goes to mosque every night and that is far more important than school. The fact that the Qu'ran says that teachers should be treated with the utmost respect is totally lost on this boy (and many of the other kids). As is the fact that without decent qualifications he wont get a job, therefore wont be seen as somebody worth marrying your daughter of too but will be seen as a scrounging little shit for the whole of his life. I bet his parents are real proud of him........
Oh and this sort of comment is quite common in my school....... sad but true.
trust me he will end up getting married to someone....they always do. Chances are he will get thrust into a family business somewhere and leech of them, and then gets an arranged marriage to a girl who's not exactly the pious type herself, or doesnt fit the lofty criteria of his family
i doubt he truly believes that anyway....supposedly religious peole seem to have a selective memory anyhow. even using god as an excuse for not repenting you crimes is i'm sure a sin, yet he is using a holy requirement as an excuse. not to mention his disrespect of the teahcer that put him there. getting your sins absolved isnt an excuse
if they had half a brain at the mosque they would come to the school, ask for the names of the worst trouble makers and then publically ridicule them infront of the community, and force them to integrate through their collective shame while making an example of the others. it sounds sharia like to me as well....almost an eye for an eye.
guarantee it will never happen
