Boston: Simmons College warns that saying “God bless you” is “Islamophobic”
Apparently any expression of one’s own culture, religion and identity is simultaneously an expression of hatred for Muslims. The implications of this are clear: Simmons College will have to embrace Islam altogether, adopt Sharia, and mandate hijab for all its students (it’s a women’s college). Anything short of this would be “Islamomisia.”
“College Warns Saying ‘God Bless You’ is Islamophobic,”
by Todd Starnes, March 7, 2018:
If you happen to be in the library at Simmons College in Boston – and somebody sneezes — whatever you do — don’t say “God bless you.”That’s because the librarians believe that the phrase “God Bless You” can spark something worse than a microagression. They fear it could spark an Islamophobic microaggression.That’s right, folks – saying “God Bless you” is considered a form of “Islamomisia.”That bit of information is tucked inside the college’s Anti-Oppression Library Guide – an exhaustive collection of words and phrases that could trigger perpetually offended collegiate snowflakes.Islamomisia is a fairly new malady that until recently was known as Islamphobia.“In North America (and throughout much of the western world), people who follow Christianity have institutional power, therefore Islamomisia is a systematized discrimination or antagonism directed against Muslim people due to their religion or perceived religious, national or ethnic identity associated with Islam,” the document states.It’s not an official college policy, mind you, but — you know the drill.The librarians — a real sensitive bunch – warn that phrases like “God bless you” and “Merry Christmas” and “Happy Easter” can make Muslims feel slighted….https://www.jihadwatch.org/2018/03/boston-simmons-college-warns-that-saying-god-bless-you-is-islamophobic---
My comments: This is the INSANITY that comes with Muslim accommodation. The is No Way to accommodate them apart from Nullifying ones own cultural prerogatives.
