Yale Requests Students Dress According to Islam's "Honest and Decent" Standards During Inter-Faith Conference.....

Are they going to task the campus RA's with Saudi Mutaween like powers to prevent vice and promote virtue?....

Because we seek to have a ministry of reconciliation, it is our aim to defer to our guests' [author's emphasis] sense of propriety whenever possible, by behaving and dressing in a manner that reflects the honor and dignity we wish to bestow upon our guests. In this specific context, Muslims and Christians are working together to organize this conference, but Christians are the primary hosts, meaning that during this conference we deferentially choose to define "decency," "honor" and "modesty" by what our Muslim guests consider "decent," "honorable" and "modest" (rather than by our own culture's definitions), giving new cultural expression to the dignity and respectability with which we normally conduct ourselves.

Nice convention of the Gorts. Let's hope this interfaith conference isn't as deadly as the one they're currently having over in Cairo regarding that church.

Infedible. Can you PICTURE mooselimes doing that same thing for THEIR guests ?

[UberInfidel67]

Ha! I'd go naked just to piss them off.

muzz decency = child rape, muzz honor = stoning the rape victim, muzz modesty = covering the head of the stoning/rape victim. There's your new cultural expression, fckng Yale TOOLS.

These so called Christians might as well convert

If I remember correctly, Yale allowed a Taliban spokesman to attend school.

No. It's time for them to respect *my* culture for once.

This is what you get when you believe in the invisible sky wizard. The heinous waste of fantastic amounts of time, money and effort to perpetuate a fairy tale.

And the outrageous claims that others have to either accept one invisible wizard or die.

Dammit, tommy boy, haven't you figured out yet, that I CAN SEE YOU through that basement window? If I have to come over there and talk to your parents AGAIN about your internet pranks, believe me young man, I WILL! And then POOF! you'll be back to looking at pictures in Fredrick's of Hollywood magazines! Get out of the house, son, before you're thirty and half blind.
