Couple's wedding clashes w/ Muslim fun day
Telegraph ^ | 7/12/06 | milford421

"A couple's plans for a £5,000 wedding at Alton Towers were thrown into confusion yesterday after it emerged that the theme park had double booked them with a fun day for 20,000 Muslims."

Amanda Morris, 30, and her fiance, Scott Lee, 31, have been told that if they go ahead with the ceremony they will not be allowed to go on celebratory rides together.

Furthermore, Miss Morris and her female guests will have to cover up to be in line with guests of Islamic Leisure wearing hijabs...."

"Believing that they and their own guests had the complex almost to themselves, Islamic Leisure drew up a list of requirements.

These included the provision of prayer areas and bans on music, alcohol and gambling. In the Muslim tradition, women would also need to cover their bodies, as well as going on rides separately to their menfolk.

The couple have since contacted Islamic Leisure, whose staff confirmed that the wedding party would be asked to adhere to their conditions...."

"Yaseen Patel, the organisation's director, confirmed: "The body will have to be covered, (though) they do not have to wear the hijab."

"The Muslim equivalent of Gay Days at Disney."

But, I don't think that those who happen to be in attendance at Disney on a "Gay Day" are required to follow the rules, practices and observances of the sponsors...

I wish I had read this article yesterday. My daughter asked me last night what an oxymoron was. Having read this I could have provided a much better example than the one I gave her.

Correct.

Gay just decided to have a gay day at Disney. Disney doesn't rent out the park to them or anything. They just show up.

The women sit in a circle and keep their mouths shut. The men bully their children into bomb-jackets and have them blow up the rides becuase the machininery involved was invented after the sixth century by infidels.

That would probably result in a beheading, no doubt adding to the 'fun day'.

Why are these muslim "restrictions" not considered racist and anti-multiculturism?

"Muslim Fun Days." Who knew.

SOME FUN!!:

These included the provision of prayer areas and bans on music, alcohol and gambling. In the Muslim tradition, women would also need to cover their bodies, as well as going on rides separately to their menfolk.

No alcohol, music or gambling? Hell, I've been to wakes that are more "fun" and exciting than this event appears to be.

Why don't all the moozies just stay home and pray to their allah 48 times a day; keep their women covered head to toe; refrain from imbibing in adult beverages; and whatever else they do for "fun," and leave the rest of Western civilization evil "infidels" alone to wallow in our shallow, materialistic, existence.

Oh yes, did I forget to mention we are FREE to choose or reject any of the above, whereby "they" are NOT?
