From Deutsche Welle, with thanks to the Norwegian Kafir:
Frankfurt University is the most recent German college to launch an Islamic studies program. But it's already under fire for working closely with Turkey's state religion authority....Mehmet Emin Köktas and two professors of Protestant theology have been working on the curriculum for two years. Köktas, a Turk, is able to teach in Frankfurt thanks to an agreement signed between the university and the Turkish Presidium for Religious Affairs (Diyanet).
Criticism followed public announcement of the cooperation, alleging Turkey meant to use the new degree program to influence the training of Islamic scholars in Germany. But its supporters vehemently deny the Turkish state plays any role in the project.
Diyanet, however, is a state agency, and it represents Sunni Islam as taught in secular Turkey, a modern, non-fundamentalist form of Islam -- but that is strictly controlled by the government.
But the dean of the university's Protestant theology department, Stefan Alkier, can't understand the criticism of the cooperation with Diyanet. On the contrary, he's pleased that the deal to fund the position brought a renowned Islamic scholar to his faculty.
"We could have carried out the course of studies with our own resources, but it's much more interesting for students that we have Muslim professors," Alkier said. He stressed that Diyanet has no direct influence on who is appointed to the position.
Hmmm. It seems that American universities aren't the only ones susceptible to the lure of Islamic money.
"it's much more interesting for students that we have Muslim professors..."
Nothing need be added.
Has good sense been stolen from the human race? It is like LSD is in the water supply.
Once again we have the sectarian fights by Muslims to claim that THEIR version of Islam is the correct one and THOSE people aren't the "TRUE"
followers of Islam,ironically this attempt to appease them mirely exposes the problem with Islam and Muslims.
In Canada CAIR has backed public school workshops on Islamophobia that base the Quran
on whahabi teachings,kids are taught that "True"
muslim females wear Hijabs and the 9/11 attack had nothing to do with Muslims or Islam.
I wish I was joking folks.
Another university sells its soul to Islam...
"...renowned Islamic scholar..."?
Is that like "efficient serial killer" ? Or "accomplished pedophile kidnapper"?
The International Slumber Party continues.
What the hell does anyone in Germany need to know about Islam except that they were driven out of Europe several times, at the cost of many thousands of noble lives, and now they are being invited to re-invade under the delusional guise of 'education'?
Do we need to have 'renowned scholars' tell us that we should be destroyed for the satisfaction of a psychopathic desert 'god'?
Sigmund Freud warned about this type of theocratic-irrational danger swamping the West under "a black tide of the mud of occultism" (Hitler was the first wave), but the earlier National Socialist Germans were so smart they drove "the father of modern Psychology" into exile in England, where he died soon after. (The dirty Jew bastard smart-aleck!) And, to compound the brilliant Germanic insight, they expelled Albert Einstein. (Dirty super-Jew bastard mega-smart-aleck!)
The sorry Deutsche story of supplication to tyrants continues. Deporting geniuses and importing imbeciles.
Is it something in their inherently slavish national character, as Nietzsche mockingly thought? That they enjoy licking the shiny boots of dictators? And if aren't allowed to grow their own, at home, they'll import the next best thing from elsewhere? In this case, Mecca?
As the song put it: "Suicide is painless."
Especially national.
Lefty loonies are the same everywhere. The riff-raff that governs Germany at this moment is probably the dumbest lot in that countries history. The US stumbles from one clumsy attempt to the next, and NOTHING is done...
Spain is no different. And England "leads", like the lame follow the blind...
"Wollt ihr Euch nach Mecca beugen, wollt ihr immer mehr Moscheen...NEIN! NEIN!..." from Sheik Yer'mamis forthcoming record: "Winds of Jihad". here he rides again:

Islam should not be taught in any non-Muslim country until Judaism/Christianity/Comparative Religion is taught in their universities -- and not a day before.
