safe&sound there are lots of groups for likeminded people that can support you, you dont need to feel isolated. The fear is theirs not yours even though the danger to you might be real enough.

Answer 1

Absolute and total political correctness gone mad.

Answer 2

But is that not Channel 4 for you - will always represent the other side of the argument...Radio 2's own 'Mrs. Thatcher', Sarah Kennedy thought it would be good to wind up her alleged socio-economic ABC1 homo sapien who she thinks listens to her early morning programme by mentioning it.
But I suspect the ones who do the most screaming will secretly tape the Channel 4 'speech'. That old chestnut 'Well...you don't have to watch' doesn't apply to the many hypocrites of the UK.

Seems like the death of the ex-spy in London has run it's course...the media had turned it into a sexy circus (and with a new James Bond film in the house...sorted!), but now it has become musty and 'boring'. Back to the mad mullahs and 'faceless lasses'. It didn't take too long!

Answer 3

Let's hear what the lady has to say. By alternative, I guess C4 will run this to coincide with HM QE2's Christmas Message.

The word Christmas may as well be deleted from the mad winterfest we are about to indulge outselves in. In reality it predates Christianity which imposed its own belief system on an already existing and ancient pagan festival.

Much of what we're going to be doing is downright Pagan from the Xmas tree to the binge drinking and over eating and brawling etc.

Wishing everyone a very Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year.

Answer 4

i dont think of its incorrect ,its only like saying Jews wearing those hats , or nuns wearing those black and white clothing . if its what they have self belief in , then i think of no physique would desire to take that removed from them ,or criticise them for it . think of as a non muslim , your married ,have a captivating spouse and childrens . and d while your spouse clothing up and is going out she looks stunning , and if yet another guy looks or passes remark on her then you definitely might experience somewhat aggravated or disillusioned . and doubtless in the adventure that your spouse is bored stiff with you she might stray , now think of your spouse covers her head and physique , and easily you get to confirm whats at the back of the headscarf or below the veil , would not you experience proud that she might try this for you . and which could additionally tutor she has no interest in showing herself off to different adult males , . this is the reason a super style of the girls do it . or perhaps with the undeniable fact that a super style of human beings will possibly no longer consider it , you will desire to confess its kinda effective . if a female is bald she is often going to look actual the comparable . yet while a female has hair then she will coloration and grace it which differences the way she looks . so if somebody sees a female strolling down the line all cove rd up , no person is actual going to make lots of a flow on her, meaning its left to her husband to confirm .

Answer 5

In my opinion Channel 4 are trying to exercise their social corporate responsibility..
Why?
Because there is a huge wave of anti-Muslim feeling sweeping the UK.. Maybe they are just trying to show that they are human too?
But what a mistake to make, and what an insult to a Christan country to change it to a "Muslim" politically correct speech.. That what the public will think.. I feel sorry for Channel 4, they have tried to promote less sectarianism but this political correctness will probably backfire and make the problem worse...
Will alll those smart educated directors, how in the hell did they come up will such a stupid idea? At least they mean well,

Answer 6

Well, it's not being force fed since we all have the opportunity to change the channel. While I think that all organized religions prevent spiritual growth and are, actually, detrimental to the followers, I, also, believe that people have the freedom to worship who and how they wish. It's the only way we can remain free, isn't it?

I am, however, waiting for things to become so PC that everyone demands their time to get up and yawp about the meaning of life. There will be nothing else on television when it gets to that stage.

Answer 7

Madness...! I guess it will be Jon Snow in Drag.. what next...Camilla making a TV speech while munching on a Curry - during Ramadan ..C4 have lost it.... Please everyone do not watch this ... turn off the TV and get stuck into the Turkey.

Answer 8

So our xmas speech isn't good enough for muslims to watch. We have to dedicate an english channels to them when they have umpteen channels of their own on sat/cable. If our xmas speeches aren't good enough, stick them on a boat out of here. I wouldn't go over there and expect to see english tv programs.

Answer 9

Fuel on the fire!!! Personally I find the veil as offensive as they find the human uncovered. I don't want to know someone that is so secretive they won't even let you know what they look like. As our beliefs have no place in their culture their ridiculous beliefs have no place in ours. I'm sure Mohammad is spinning in his grave at the way his teachings have been corrupted to benefit the bank accounts of a few greedy skum, much like the Christian church bent the teachings of Christ in the middle ages to benefit it's members.

If they want to carry out these acts they are welcome to do it, but please not in front of me.

Answer 10

I don`t think that the `alternative` here refers to religion. I think it means an alternative to the Queens `speech. We has Sharon Osborne doing it one year. I think the Queen was much better, more professional. As for Muslims on TV on Christmas Day...... does that mean we have converted them to Christianity ?!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 11

Everything goes under the sky of a free nation, lol; it's only the Christmas speech, not the state of the union. As to what's going on, look around you hun; you rip here, you gotta patch there. I'd say compensation and recompense; yap, containment if you like.
