Rebuked by Graham, Duke University cancels bell tower broadcast of Muslim call to prayer
Via comment by Anonymous on Oh, goodie. NC: Muslim call to prayer to sound at
“As Christianity is being excluded from the public square and followers of Islam are raping, butchering, and beheading Christians, Jews, and anyone who doesn’t submit to their Sharia Islamic law, Duke is promoting this in the name of religious pluralism,” said a post on Graham’s Facebook page.
In the face of biting criticism from conservative Christian evangelist Franklin Graham, Duke University dropped its plan Thursday to let Muslim students chant a weekly call to prayer from the Duke Chapel bell tower.
“Duke remains committed to fostering an inclusive, tolerant and welcoming campus for all of its students,” Michael Schoenfeld, vice president for public affairs, said in a news release. “However, it was clear that what was conceived as an effort to unify was not having the intended effect.”
