time_bomb Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 i dont like how pakistanis are always used as representatives for muslims in this country anyway, f*ck this show pisses me off would you prefer them to use somalis its not about who id prefer, its about representing the muslim community as a whole. Pakistanis have a culture that many non-muslims in the uk would perceive as being part of the religion, when in fact its just as alien to us north africans. In uk we have a decent size north african community, somali community, arabs, then u got others like the white reverts, black reverts, sub-saharan africans, malaysians/indonesians, theres lots, it would just be nice to see some variation when uk muslims are shown.

time_bomb Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 / it seems the only time we see other muslims represented in uk is football, your ba's, cisses, nasris, benarfas, dzekos etc praising allah when they score, but then again most non-muslims dont even realise what theyre doing.

Mizchif Posted October 4, 2012 Report Share Posted October 4, 2012 Islam and its followers needs to be open to the same critical & comical analysis that all other religions receive or risk forever segregating themselves from the general population. We do live in a multi-cultural society and to be honest people should be happy there is a BBC one show primarily featuring Muslims. What Muslims aren't allowed to be critiqued or made fun of? f*ck that, the strength of a religion isn't based on how well you defend against people who question or mock it but by the conviction of the individuals beliefs in their deity and doctrine. And Pakistani's make up almost half of all muslims in the UK so it's statistically more likely that they would be selected right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
