Straight Writer Decries ?Islamist? Intolerance of Gays
2008-06-24 12:50:00 It seems that all too often gay political organizations are reluctant to address the anti-gay attitudes at the core of radical Islamism. They seem sometimes to style themselves as a part of a “Coalition of the Oppressed,” allied with all those at odds with Western governments and societies. But, some do get it, even figures ...

A Token Of Intolerance...Or More?
2008-05-30 18:18:00 (Note: I know the videos have been MIA lately, and that is because of a technical difficulty that I hope to have resolved soon.)I happened to come across this Daily Kos diary which has to do with the story reported here by Reuters and elsewhere of our latest PR blunder in Iraq; namely, the handing out of coins with Bible verses on them to Iraqis in Falluja by one of our marines (and I’m not blaming the marine, I hasten to add; as far as I’m concerned, our military is trying to do its best in a hopeless situation, made so because of what passes for Iraq’s “political leadership” as well as our own)…"(Our military has) initiated an investigation into that and there is some evidence of an individual that was doing that," said Bryan Whitman, a Pentagon spokesman.The Marine has been accused of distributing the coins to Iraqis as they passed through a check point in Falluja, U.S. officials said."Where will you spend eternity?" was written on one side of the coins, according to ...

Dinosaurs, Man, and Galling?s Hypocrisy of The Bible
2008-05-15 06:17:00 Now look at Peter Galling, one of Ham’s cronies’ playing innocent, engaging in bibliolatry, and being a hypocrite with this new approach to responding to a feedback given by an S.T. from Rockport, Texas and L.B. from a somewhat false location (What false location, Galling?), “We thought we?d try something a little different in this week?s response to feedback. Usually, we select one negative feedback to answer, always looking for an emailer who asks a valid question rather than someone just unloading unsubstantiated claims. Recently, we received two relatively similar emails asking about our contention (or the Bible?s contention, as we argue) that dinosaurs and humans lived at the same time. Both authors write as Christians, so we thought this would be a good opportunity to address the question once again and touch on some of the issues it relates to.” The contention of humans and dinosaurs living at the same time is not of the Bible. It’s all made up b...
Religious intolerance is alive and well in the USA
2008-05-12 00:41:00 "Muslim!" Now Available In Insult Form: In a 2004 survey by Cornell university, almost half of the national respondents favored curtailing the civil liberties of Muslims. 40 percent of Republicans wanted American Muslims to register their whereabouts. There are some Americans who recognize the demonization for what it is... but we all need to look fairly at religious discrimination.As Ali Eteraz's article points out, even Mitt Romney, a Presidential candidate who comes from a marginalized religious background, cannot accept the idea of a Muslim in the cabinet. Why? There is resistance among many Americans to the obvious truth that Muslims are a diverse group: 1.2 billion humans, living in virtually every nation on the planet cannot possibly be less diverse than, say, the registered Republicans in the USA. When all Republicans can agree on an issue then we can ask the question again.Meanwhile, Congressman Keith Ellison's faith raises eyebrows (except in his Minnesota district, th...

From intolerance to lawlessness: Politics of hate and revenge
2008-04-30 04:20:00 by Huzaima Bukhari and Dr. Ikramul Haq April 9, 2008 was another day of mayhem in Karachi: violent clashes, burring of offices with persons trapped inside, loss of life and property, all testifying that Pakistan is a state in perpetual crisis. For the last many years, we are witnessing all kinds of conflicts economic, socio-political, centre-provinces disagreements, sectarian, tribal, ethnic and religious fights, suicidal attacks, thrashing of political opponents and what not. These are the wages of learned helplessness and tolerating one-mans dictatorial rule for eight long years. Although Musharraf poses himself as saviour of nation, man with vision and promoter of enlightenment and moderation, but it is undeniable fact that he created a new class of cronies and sycophants that used brutal state power to gag every dissident voicehow lawyers, politicians, political workers, members of civil society, media men and even judges of superior courts were manhandled, detained and t...

Jonah Goldberg and Christian fish intolerance
2008-04-02 19:43:00 In his Evolution of Religious Bigotry article on Fitna, the Dutch anti-Koran movie, and people who place Darwin fish symbols on their cars, Jonah Goldberg makes two points: 1. That it's rude to put anti-anything symbols on their cars. 2. That people who do so are cowardly because they'd never offend the religion whose adherents would actually harm them, and hypocritical because they condemn the nice religion. Some thoughts: 1. I always thought it was in bad taste and hypocritical as well as an unnecessary disturber of the public peace. The original fish itself is inoffensive- a positive message that only implies that non-believers will go to Hell. People who'd use the Darwin bumper sticker (I know such people.) would say that Christianity is a worthy target of wrath because it places more value on fetuses than women's freedom and wanting to include some sort of non-materialistic ideas on evolution. 2. As for the bravery of placing the Darwin sticker: Of course, unless ...

Tolerating Intolerance? La Raza's Move to Chicago and the Minuteman Respons
2008-02-11 05:40:00 This week, La Raza, America’s largest Latino civil rights group, announced that it was moving its 2009 convention from Kansas City to Chicago. The move is in protest of the appointment of a Minuteman member to the Kansas City Parks and Recreation Board. While much discussion of the move has centered on the economic effect of the move (La Raza attracts some 20,000 participants to its convention), we thought there was a need for some discussion about the discourse surrounding the controversy and, in particular, how that relates to the nebulous concept of tolerance.We get a glimpse into the complexity of the notion of tolerance from an interview with a member of the Chicago Minuteman group, who said of La Raza: “They refuse to go to Kansas City because of someone on some board whose viewpoints they don’t approve of. This organization is probably one of the least tolerant organizations you’ll ever find. And if they come here I think it’s quite likely that we would set up som...
This Day In Intolerance (2/4/08)
2008-02-04 22:40:00 Bloomberg tells us that Earl Butz passed away, the former agriculture secretary who surely uttered one of the most racist quotes of all time in 1976 (I?ll link to it from here and let you decide whether or not you want to read it verbatim).What a shame he wasn?t a radio talk show host about 30 or so years from that point into the future. If he were, he probably would have ended making a lot of money and achieved syndication throughout the country (h/t The Daily Kos ? Butz probably would have been fired or suspended a time or two, but these people always seem to rise up out of the muck regardless).

"My Heart in a Suitcase" teaches children to Combat Intolerance
2008-01-13 19:28:00 What's the best way to show children the importance of respecting the culture and beliefs of other people? Have them attend a moving recreation of times in the past when intolerance for people with different religions and beliefs was not only acceptable but the driving philosophy of a government. ArtsPower National Touring Theatre will perform "My Heart in a Suitcase" at the Performing Arts Center of Queensborough Community College, 222-05 56th Ave., Bayside on April 29, 2008 at 10:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. This drama is based on the autobiography of Ms. Anne L. Fox who in 1938 along with thousands of other Jewish children was forced by the Nazis to leave parents and family and everything they loved and be taken to a strange foreign country to live. These performances demonstrate the need to teach children to combat intolerance and respect all human beings. This drama is especially geared for children in grades 4 to 8. Tickets are priced at $...

Mastocytic Enterocolitis Associated Food Intolerance Missed Due to Lack of
2007-12-29 03:30:00 Increased mast cells have been reported in association with eosinophils in the gut in patients with celiac disease and inflammatory bowel diseases like ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease condition. Mastocytic enterocolitis (entero=small bowel, colitis- colon + -itis= inflammation) is a newly recognized disorder defined specifically by the microscopic presence of increased mast cells (>20 mast cells/high power field) in the gut, typically associated with abdominal pain and diarrhea diagnosed as IBS-D.Mast cells are a type of white blood cell important in immune defense. These “covert” cells are hard to see in the lining of the gut without special stains. Therefore, they have been not recognized as being increased in the gut until recently when this association was found with IBS. Mast cells have granules that contain chemical mediators such as histamine. These mediators are released resulting in pain due to irritation of nerves. Diarrhea is most commonly noted but impairmen...
Mainstream News Organizations AWOL in Battle against Ignorance, Intolerance
2007-12-27 16:10:00 by Michael Gillespie Des Moines, IA The Iowa Chapter of the Methodist Federation for Social Action (MFSA) and The Shalom Center, headquartered in Philadelphia, teamed up recently to promote the Interfaith Peace Committee (IPC)s call for peace in the Middle East and campaign against a U.S. attack on Iran. The IPCs statement, A Pax on Both Our Houses (pax is Latin for peace), calls on the government of the United States to end all actions, threats, plans, or support for war against Iran, and for the religious authorities of Iran to end all threats against the existence of Israel and all denials of the historical truth of the Nazi Holocaust, and to make clear that Iran will not support violence against civilians by its own or other forces, and to reaffirm for the future their prohibition of any effort to seek nuclear weapons for Iran. The statement also calls for the governments of both nations at once to open direct talks on all issues of mutual concern, looking toward...

Teddy Bear Fiasco Allows Intolerance to Flourish
2007-12-01 15:59:00 The British schoolteacher who was convicted of insulting Muslims by having her children name a teddy bear Mohamed is being placed in a secret location because a mob of 600 protestors shouted, “Shame on the UK,” and “No tolerance, Execution.” The Sudan government has placed itself into a quandary, by allowing the silly situation to even begin. It has enabled just about every fanatic in the Sudan to rush to grab the limelight of extremism by shouting hate and anger against a Westerner. Noted hard line cleric Abdul-Jalil Nazeer al-Karori, urged on people bent on hate with, “Imprisoning this lady does not satisfy the thirst of Muslims in the Sudan.” Fortunately, in England, the British Federation of Student Muslim Societies denounced the sentence as being out of all proportion to the crime. There are some who support sentencing a teacher who named a teddy bear on grounds each nation’s culture should be respected. One can understand another cultu...
Legitimizing "Terror High" Intolerance
2007-11-27 00:34:00 This AP story courtesy of the San Diego Tribune tells us that the Islamic Saudi Academy K-12 school in Fairfax County, VA should be closed pending a review of its curriculum and textbooks based on a recommendation from the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (which includes a chairperson and two vice chairs).The story also tells us?The teachers, administrators and some 900 students at the Islamic Saudi Academy in Fairfax County have heard the (terror high) allegations for years ? after the Sept. 11 attacks and then a few years later when a class valedictorian admitted he had joined al-Qaeda.OK, that?s not a good thing, I?ll grant you that. But before we rush to judgment here, I would ask that we think about how many students from the entire school have joined an organization that encourages killing Americans and all non-Muslims; if it?s only a fraction of the student body, then what is the issue exactly? Don?t non-Muslims join al Qaeda or related groups also?The story...
Intolerance....It's not just for Lactose anymore...
2007-11-05 15:59:00 Saturday morning, Collette had a friend over to play. The girls are both ten years old, so it never occurred to me that the Mom (who shall henceforth be called "mumzy") would feel the need to stay the whole time (I might have done this when my kids were preschoolers - but 4th & 5th graders?) - don't get me wrong - I totally understand staying for a few minutes to check things out since they'd never been to our house before - just to make sure we weren't some kind of weirdos or something....but the whole two hours??Since Mumzy made it very obvious she was not going anywhere, I invited her to sit down & proceeded with the obligatory "cocktail party" kind of chat. Mumzy did not stop talking the entire time...which was okay with me because as she droned on, it became very obvious we had absolutely NOTHING in common. At one point, she started on about this concert she and her husband had gone to (five years ago). I finally got a word in and said that the only concerts Eric and I get t...

MRT food sensitivity and food intolerance testing helpful
2007-09-30 11:37:00 Certain foods, additives and chemicals are capable of triggering immune reactions that are not due to allergies. Chemicals mediators released by the immune system are capable of producing a variety body reactions resulting in symptoms. Avoiding foods that produce such reactions significantly improve symptoms resulting from eating those foods. Mediator release (MRT) testing measures the release of chemical mediators from white blood cells and platelets in response to specific foods, additives or chemicals. Such chemical reactions presumably indicate sensitivity to these foods or additives. Principles of mediator release testing (MRT):Mediator release testing (MRT, Signet Diagnostic Corporation, www.nowleap.com) is based on measuring the reaction in the blood resulting from a food or chemical to which you have become sensitive or intolerant. When exposed to a foods or chemical that you are sensitive to your cells release various chemical mediators. These mediators cause an alteration ...
Intolerance
2007-09-26 05:33:00 Say what you like about the man, but it took courage to stand up in front of what was always going to be a hostile audience and allow himself to be assaulted by a barrage of searching questions. Perhaps President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad expected some heckling from the audience, but its doubtful he anticipated the vitriolic attack that was launched by the president of Columbia University, Lee Bollinger. In a statement that was embarrassing to himself, his institution, and indeed the United States of America, Bollinger excoriated the Iranian president with insults and slanders, even before Ahmadinejad had been given the chance to speak. Interestingly, looking through the reader's comments on CNN.com and the BBC website, a majority of people seem to agree that Bollinger's outburst was arrogant, rude, uncivilized and belligerent. Or "typically American" if you prefer the short version that some posters offered. Doctor Philip Brenner, a professor of international relation...
An Anniversary Of Intolerance
2007-08-30 00:24:00 (Posting is iffy for tomorrow, by the way?)Fifty years ago today, former Repug senator Strom Thurmond from South Carolina conducted the longest filibuster in U.S. Senate history (24 hours and 18 minutes, believe it or not) in an unsuccessful attempt to derail the Civil Rights Act of 1957.As Joshua Zeitz tells us here?Staunchly opposed to racial integration, he gave a campaign speech in 1948 in which he promised that ?there?s not enough troops in the Army to force the Southern people to break down segregation and admit the Nigra race into our theaters, into our swimming pools, into our homes, and into our churches.? He warned his followers, ?Think about the situation which would exist when the annual office party is held or the union sponsors a dance.? His focus on constitutional questions like ?states? rights? and ?federalism? was a matter of political expediency rather than noble conviction. After World War II, in which America had defeated a state built on racist ideology, it was ...
Ah, the intolerance of the tolerant
2007-08-04 01:14:00 Since first launching upon the seas of the blogosphere some six years ago, I've disliked blogwars - particularly with other bloggers who you might think I would ostensibly be siding with in many areas. However the recent, non-issue dust up over this post has simply gotten out of hand because of misrepresentations and doublespeak. The accusations and distortions in the comments section, the pseudo-righteous indignation of this follow-up post by the anonymous blogger "Faithful Progressive" (and its subsequent comments) have passed beyond the bizarre.As regular readers will already know, it all started from a single sentence in the original post.And from the left we've already got someone insisting thebridge wouldn't have collapsed if we hadn't invaded Iraq. In all fairness to FP, that exact text did not appear in the original post. Then again, it was not posted as a quote, but clearly a summary or interpretation. Was it a fair one? You be the judge.FP's post referenced two articl...
Celiac Disease and Gluten Intolerance: You're Not Alone
2007-08-02 19:51:00 Many readers have asked me about Celiac Disease. According to Gary Huffnagle Ph.D. (The Probiotics Revolution) there is a minimum of one million Americans with celiac but it is estimated to be much more widespread. Celiac.com subscribes to three million affected Americans, most of Northern European extraction.Back in the 1970's in small town Michigan, my aunt had two young children with severe celiac. After giving his diagnosis, their doctor proclaimed short-lived lives for my cousins. The children had inherited the condition from their paternal grandfather, skipping a generation by leaving their father untouched. Living in the Grove, a local neighborhood, my aunt-'s family sold their home and purchased a piece of farm property. Remodeling their lives wasn't easy, but they gave up wheat and other glutens as well as cow milk. My aunt grew a large fresh garden, produced her own meat, eggs, and goat milk. In the kitch...

Careful what you eat: Link found between food intolerance and illness
2007-07-25 17:40:00 I have always believed that what we eat affects our overall health and well-being--and that digestion problems can cause illness anywhere in the body. So when I came across a recent article that said British researchers have found "compelling" evidence that links food intolerances and serious illness, I was shocked to learn that this was the first time such evidence was found. Interestingly, researchers said they specifically found links between food and Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.Why are these findings this such a big deal? Well, it may prompt the medical field to completely rethink the way they treat and look at a whole host of conditions from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) to migraine. This is great for patients whose reports of food intolerances have been mostly seen as "in the mind"and discounted, according to a Medical News Today article.Specific findings from the University College of London researchers included: Those with Crohn's Disease and ulcerative ...
