I feel like I'm missing something in this debate Isaac Send a noteboard - 02/12/2009 11:21:03 PM
Are they banning signing the Adhan over the loudspeaker or are they actually banning the construction of minarets?

It seems the Swiss ban on muslim minarets has passed rather quietly AgentOrange - 02/12/2009 04:15:22 PM 520 Views
This is surprising. Avendesora - 02/12/2009 04:19:03 PM 270 Views
Not here, it certainly hasn't. Legolas - 02/12/2009 04:34:55 PM 284 Views
Nor here. It's all over our news. *NM* Tim - 02/12/2009 10:01:57 PM 120 Views

I understand the first in Qatar was built in 2003. Legolas - 02/12/2009 10:11:31 PM 240 Views
Yes, with no steeple and no bell! Vodalus - 03/12/2009 12:48:12 AM 255 Views
Ah yes, now that you mention it. Legolas - 03/12/2009 12:52:26 AM 243 Views
So you ban the steeples where church bells are not needed? Cannoli - 02/12/2009 07:19:16 PM 272 Views
I would take an equal line against steeples where there is no bell/or no bell allowed to be used. The Shrike - 02/12/2009 08:29:21 PM 270 Views

Does anyone know the legal effect of this referendum? Tim - 02/12/2009 10:00:54 PM 257 Views
It's Switzerland. Their referendums are binding. Legolas - 02/12/2009 10:07:52 PM 264 Views
Do the Swiss think they live in 5th-century BC Athens or something? Tim - 02/12/2009 10:11:29 PM 259 Views
Switzerland is odd in a great many ways. Legolas - 02/12/2009 10:14:26 PM 262 Views
Actually, I think I meant the European Court of Human Rights, not the ECJ. Tim - 02/12/2009 10:16:38 PM 261 Views
Yeah, but does that one have any power? Legolas - 02/12/2009 10:17:54 PM 276 Views

The latter. Legolas - 02/12/2009 11:22:49 PM 272 Views
Huh, that's bizarre Isaac - 02/12/2009 11:39:03 PM 243 Views

sicherheit schaffen, that's great! Isaac - 03/12/2009 12:00:00 AM 240 Views
I'm hoping you mean great in the bad way. Legolas - 03/12/2009 12:05:30 AM 264 Views
Re: I'm hoping you mean great in the bad way. Isaac - 03/12/2009 02:03:33 AM 246 Views
Thank you, I guess? smaug - 03/12/2009 12:14:08 PM 250 Views
I don't really see a problem with it random thoughts - 02/12/2009 10:09:55 PM 250 Views
They pretty much have. Legolas - 02/12/2009 10:16:46 PM 266 Views
that was kind of my thought LadyLorraine - 03/12/2009 12:17:23 AM 230 Views
I would say it is a bit reactionary but i guess it depends on your definition of intolerance random thoughts - 03/12/2009 03:39:48 PM 265 Views
Several points... Legolas - 03/12/2009 07:15:17 PM 260 Views
The Adhan can really get to you Isaac - 02/12/2009 11:14:47 PM 312 Views
At least that one can sing. Legolas - 02/12/2009 11:24:03 PM 260 Views

just wanted to say high random thoughts - 03/12/2009 03:37:45 PM 246 Views
I think it seems kind of a silly waste of government power... LadyLorraine - 03/12/2009 12:27:29 AM 249 Views
It's not the government that did it. *NM* Legolas - 03/12/2009 12:29:35 AM 120 Views
*re reads* Oh. I guess it's really power to the people over there LadyLorraine - 03/12/2009 12:35:59 AM 227 Views
Unfortunately, sometimes... *NM* smaug - 03/12/2009 12:15:29 PM 146 Views
