Sorry, I should have been more explicit. I was refering to your Medina link. She was pelted with eggs, not stones.

Islam in Europe : Opinion: Why don't the Jews join us?

What really bothers me is seeing my fellow human beings using superstition- and myth-based "identities" to place themselves apart from and above the rest of humanity. It's childish and stupid. Identity schmidentity. Try getting a personality instead.

Islam in Europe : Germany: Lingerie ad features niqab

The niqab is only superficially about "morals and virtue" or "modesty". It actually has the opposite effect in that it hypersexualses the female body by reducing it to a purely sexual object. It is also sometimes used as a very ostentatious display of modesty.

Heresy Corner : Other veils, other places

Banning the burka is unacceptably illiberal, but its use can be discouraged with societal pressure. My suggestion: a winking campaign. If you see a woman in a burka, give her a smile and a wink. This friendly gesture undermines the "modesty" purpose of the garment, discomfits the wearer, and makes a point. It is also appropriately patronising. In the event of this being met with the outraged question "Why did you wink at me?", simply reply: "I like burkas." Wink at a burka today!

He didn't apologise. He expressed 'sorrow' and 'anguish', and offered his 'sympathy'. But the bastard couldn't bring himself to apologise.
