Who Made Muslims So Cocky?
Ok, im a 15 year old male, and being 15 means many things.
I have taken a larger insterest in news coverage and international relations and politics, because i know they will mould my future, and also Work Experience.
This is where i get to go out and do a Job for two weeks instead of school, my dad works in a Combined Crown an Civil Court, so i went there.
On my last day, as a 'reward' they let me sit in court, watch sentencing and trials.
I saw many things that angered me, i was allowed to sit in a Rape trial, and the details of that crime upset and angered me. I sat in an assault trial, and thought how petty some people were.
But then, dinner time - The Judge went for his lunch and i couldn't go for mine for another hour, so i sat an talked to the Usher. He showed me papers with all the 'Swearing Ins' and 'Oaths'
I saw the 'I swear before the almight god' one, an asked what would one say if one is an athiest. I was shown a sheet in for athiests, which is just the plain 'i swear the account i shall give shall be the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth' and you have to swear on something or other, not a god though.
i was then shown and told about many different religion's oaths.
The Chinese at one time had to break a plate infront of the jury to show they were being honest.
Then it came to Muslims, who had to have a hand on the Qu'ran (sp) while swearing in.
The book was kept in a bag, and when i pulled it out the bag i was told off, and told that if i did that in court they woul dhave to get another, i asked why and apparently it is because us Christians are unclean people, and touching the Qu'ran desecrates it.
Now if i were to refuse to touch a bible because a muslim had touched it, i would be considered Racist and they would claim im discriminating them.
Damn on way racism and damn religion.
Do you agree that they shouldnt be allowed to make such claims?
Had to vent that out, sorry.
