Duke University finds homosexual haters it can embrace: Chick-fil-A Out, Muslims Prayers In

Duke University is one of the most politically correct campuses in the nation, a title for which there is abundant competition. Chick-fil-A’s outlet on campus closed in 2013, after its contract expired in the wake of concerns expressed by the LGBT Center.

But now comes news that the Muslim call to prayer, the adhan, will echo from the bell tower of the Duke chapel – Duke’s most iconic structure – every Friday, electronically amplified. CNN:

Starting Friday, the Duke Muslim Students Association will chant the call, or adhan, from the Duke Chapel bell tower. The adhan signals the beginning of the weekly prayer service. It's ubiquitous in Muslim countries the world over; not so in the Carolina piedmont.

The call will last three minutes and will be only "moderately amplified," the school said.

Duke, which got its start in the late 19th century with help from the Methodist church, says the move "represents a larger commitment to religious pluralism that is at the heart of Duke's mission."

I wonder how the LGBT Center feels about this. Islam calls for the killing of homosexuals. If mere opposition to same-sex marriage is cause for outrage, how about the killing of homosexuals?

Breitbart reports:

Duke University has a long history of fostering political correctness and hypersensitivity, from Chick-Fil-A’s removal from campus, to hosting a the national Palestinian Solidarity Movement conference, and to canceling a pro-life event in their Women’s Center on campus.

From your link, it says:

In 1892, after a spirited competition among piedmont cities, Trinity opened in Durham, largely because of the generosity of Washington Duke and Julian S. Carr, influential and respected Methodists grown prosperous in the tobacco industry.

Wonder why they named the school after Duke and Carr was left out...

I have no personal or professional connection to Duke University, so I can only guess ...

My "reading between the lines" in that paragraph is that Washington Duke forked over considerably more money than anybody else ... and the Golden Rule was put into effect. (He who has the gold, makes the rules.)

Duke, the law school of Richard Nixon (3rd in his class 1937).

With the intense competition among elite schools for smart kids who can pay the exorbitant tuition, this seems like a bad sales pitch.

Essentially Duke is recruiting muslims. Perhaps that’s the plan.

“...they should have thrown Imam out of the church..”

Amen.

I’ve seen that before. She didn’t want to go, but the Lord prompted her. Speaking truth into a world of lies.

I actually discovered things that my wife and I could do together and have a real life not tied to sports. My blood pressure is 116 over 68 and I don’t sit in front of the TV ramming chips and dips down my throat and yelling at the TV. It really is a nice life out there.

LOL!! Priceless!
