I don't think they use prayer mats inside the mosque!

Edit: Looking at pics. One big carpet with its pattern making space for separating people with enough room

Think you're right, Rob

Think you're getting race and religion mixed up. Religion is a matter of personal choice, race isn't.

Thanks for looking up the facts of one of the cathedrals. I'm reminded about the old saying "going to the wall". These days it's used in the context of a company going bankrupt but it originated during the days when churches were standing only venues and the elderly, weak and infirm of the congregation took to leaning against the church walls for support.

The mosque wasn't needed by any standards. Nothing to do with any religion.

But Accy is so segregated between the races, that any non-Muslim race would be clueless.

There are some excellent elders like Ethyl, Mike, Glynn and Catheline of Central Ward who would know this as they have integrated freely for the past 60 years, no matter race or religion.

It was a few factions of Asians fighting to get the bigger area, to attract the most followers to their sect (from the other sects). Nothing more to it.

Don't let ignorance or hatred fool you to associate every ill you see in an Arab/Asian = Islam.

Accy is screwed 'cus of such type of numpty idiots in both races, sadly, like some on this very board.

99.9% of the ills you're seeing are nothing to do with any race/religion.

Cultural? Maybe, just maybe.

No of course not, I,m only including the ones who obviously are and they are pretty easy to spot.

The only reason that I haven't posted on here since I first joined 3 years ago is that up till now most of my spare time was spent working for a living.

No they aren't, I have been accused of being racist, too P.C. and everything in between.
Try not to correct the other members of the site when you know so little about them, it ruins it for me if someone else upsets them.

Plenty of posters on here, perhaps even the majority, work long hours to keep the wolf from the door (did so myself up to a few months ago) but it doesn't stop them from posting. You joined three years and you've only just started posting now - that's up to you and there's no law against it, but don't insult our intelligence with bull.

Yup ... can't miss those white bedsheets, the pointy hats (or heads), and the burning crosses
