Church of England leaders have accepted the need to be “hospitable” to other faiths within any future service at Westminster Abbey, in order to reflect the spiritual diversity of modern Britain.
The Church has resisted calls for a multi-faith service in recent years, preferring to stress that the Christian nature of the coronation is preserved by law.
Senior church figures told this newspaper t that it was now accepted that other faiths should be recognised within the coronation service for the first time.

The Land without Muslims
The Japanese do not feel the need to apologize to Muslims for the negative way in which they relate to Islam.

Latest update: May 20th, 2013
There are countries in the world, mainly in Europe, that are presently undergoing significant cultural transformations as a result of Muslim immigration. France, Germany, Belgium and Holland are interesting examples of cases where immigration from Muslim countries, together with the Muslims’ high fertility rate, effects every area of life.
It is interesting to know that there is a country in the world whose official and public approach to the Muslim matter is totally different. This country is Japan. This country keeps a very low profile on all levels regarding the Muslim matter: On the diplomatic level, senior political figures from Islamic countries almost never visit Japan, and Japanese leaders rarely visit Muslim countries. The relations with Muslim countries are based on concerns such as oil and gas, which Japan imports from some Muslim countries. The official policy of Japan is not to give citizenship to Muslims who come to Japan, and even permits for permanent residency are given sparingly to Muslims.
Japan forbids exhorting people to adopt the religion of Islam (Dawah), and any Muslim who actively encourages conversion to Islam is seen as proselytizing to a foreign and undesirable culture. Few academic institutions teach the Arabic language. It is very difficult to import books of the Qur’an to Japan, and Muslims who come to Japan, are usually employees of foreign companies. In Japan there are very few mosques. The official policy of the Japanese authorities is to make every effort not to allow entry to Muslims, even if they are physicians, engineers and managers sent by foreign companies that are active in the region. Japanese society expects Muslim men to pray at home.
The Netherlands to Abandon Multiculturalism

The Conservative Papers
The Netherlands , where six per cent of the population is now Muslim, is scrapping multiculturalism:
The Dutch government says it will abandon the long-standing model of multiculturalism that has encouraged Muslim immigrants create a parallel society within the Netherlands ..
A new integration bill, which Dutch Interior Minister Piet Hein Donner presented to parliament on June 16, reads:
“The government shares the social dissatisfaction over the multicultural society model and plans to shift priority to the values of the Dutch people.
In the new integration system, the values of the Dutch society play a central role.”
With this change, the government steps away from the model of a multicultural society.

Ghulam is a taxi driver who lives in Blackburn, a once-booming textile town in Lancashire. He has a terrace house near his local mosque (one of 53 in the area), a silver Nissan car and a very complex private life.
Two experienced Lancashire social workers say that in their estimation there are 20,000 bigamous or polygamous unions in the UK
For he has so many children that he struggles to remember their names, and five wives from various countries, including Yemen, Egypt, Turkey and his own birthplace, Pakistan.
Ghulam’s latest bride is a shy 20-year-old called Hafeza. He brought her to Britain from Morocco, soon after his 45th birthday earlier this year. They married in an Islamic wedding ceremony called ‘the Nikah’ in her village, with Hafeza’s pleased parents among the guests.

Saudi keeps ban on churches
I think we need more multiculturalism not less. Let us take a page from the Saudi play book and not allow any mosques to exist in the western world.
Why would we allow Nazi or Shinto community centers to exist all over Canada etc. and even publicly subsidize them above and beyond even tax free status, while Imperial Japan or Nazi Germany was busy destroying any institutions other than their own as quickly as possible as a matter of sate policy. In the future, assuming liberalism survives at all, people will look back stunned that we facilitated Islam the way we do. They will think we must have been staggeringly stupid just the way most people think the Crusaders were savage, intolerant and vicious as opposed to fighting a defensive war against a manifest-destiny Islam.

ULTRA-CONSERVATIVE Saudi Arabia will retain its longstanding ban on non-Muslim places of worship, Justice Minister Mohammed al-Issa said in comments reported by the Saudi media.
As Saudi Arabia is “home to the Muslim holy places, it does not allow the establishment of non-Muslim places of worship”, the Al-Hayat newspaper on Wednesday quoted Issa as telling European MPs in Brussels.
Saudi Arabia, home to the holy Kaaba – the cube-shaped structure at the Grand Mosque in Mecca towards which Muslims worldwide pray – has come in for repeated criticism for its ban on non-Muslim places of worship.
Although Saudi Arabia’s citizen population is Muslim, the kingdom is also home to millions of expatriates of various beliefs.
Unlike Saudi Arabia, the kingdom’s Gulf Arab neighbours allow the building of churches and the celebration of non-Muslim feasts.
Greece pulls statues from Qatar exhibit over nudity dispute

Greece has pulled two ancient statues from an ongoing Olympic Games exhibition in Qatar in a dispute over nudity, a Culture Ministry source said on Tuesday.
“The statues have already returned to Greece,” a Culture Ministry source told AFP, adding: “Organizers in Qatar wanted to cover up the statues’ members with black cloth. So they were never put on display, they went back into storage and returned on April 19.”
Ann Coulter is superb here. This is telling it like it is.
Wanna know how bad things are these days? Go into any restaurant or grecery store and where the context allows it, say, “…cause for me, a day without pork is like a day without freedom” and guess what…

EU Wants To Abolish Cross From Greek Flag?
The thing about this is, I guarantee 100% that if they succeed in removing the cross from the Greek flag, some kind of exception will be made for the crescent moon and star perhaps claiming that it isn’t really a religious symbol or some other such nonsense as they do everywhere else. My favorite example of course is this one where Ottawa City Council allowed a mosque to be built with no parking even though the nearby church had to obey city bylaws and provide X number of parking spots per seat. Why? Because in mosques they sit on the floor and so they don’t really use seats and as a consequences, don’t need parking.
Yes. Really.
That actually did happen

On March 25, on the occasion of the Greek Independence Day Parade, the “new” Greek flags which fluttered in the wind in many Greek cities, appeared with only blue and white stripes, without the cross symbol of Christianity.
In the past few months, there have been reports in the Greek media that the European Union has been seriously discussing the possibility of abolishing religious symbols from six out of 27 EU countries that have the cross symbol on their flags: Finland, Sweden, Denmark, Great Britain, Malta and Greece.
Established during the Greek War of Independence against the Ottoman Empire, the colors of the Greek flag symbolize the sea that surrounds the country (blue) and the purity of the fighters’ cause (white).
Sex attacker wins right to appeal over cultural differences
Any nation that pretends to multiculturalism actually has to do this. Not only grant him an appeal, but they should force the rape victim to ‘marry’ him and then let him kill her. After all, that is the Afghan tradition and Islamic law. Multiculturalism is an oxymoron. It simply cannot be. There cannot be more than one set of legal principles operating in the same area. The government of Australia is now asking a rape victim to accept no justice because her rapist was from a culture where rape of women is the norm.
In more rational periods of human history this would have been grounds for serious actions against a democratic government. It would have been headline news for weeks or even months in say, the 1960s and would have been discussed in the bars and schools of the free world by all. After all, one can’t help but notice that for us regular civilized folk, “Ignorance of the law is no excuse” while for an Afghan, “an unclear concept of what constitutes consent” (ibid) is grounds for an appeal.
As it is, likely the vast majority of people will never even hear about this.

AN Afghan refugee who argued cultural differences led him to rape a drunken girl has won a bid to appeal against a 14-year jail term.
Esmatullah Sharifi, 31, was given a total 11-year non-parole term for two rapes committed within days of each other in December 2008.
He pleaded guilty at separate hearings to raping a teen on December 19 and a woman, 25, on Christmas Eve. He’s been granted leave to appeal against the sentence for raping the teen.
A date is yet to be set.
Granting leave to appeal, Court of Appeal Justice Robert Redlich said: “The sentencing judge rejected any suggestion (Sharifi) didn’t have a clear concept of consent in sexual relations. His Honour concluded that the protection of the community was the principal purpose for which the sentence was imposed.”
But he said the 18-year-old victim had found there were “aspects of his conduct that were strange” because Sharifi treated her like a “willing participant”.
He noted that Sharifi, who came to Australia on a temporary protection visa in 2001, also drove her home.
“It proves, in my view, an adequate basis for most grounds of appeal that (Sharifi) wishes to pursue,” the judge said.
In April last year, a psychologist told the County Court that Sharifi had “an unclear concept of what constitutes consent in sexual relationships” in Australia.
