    Hats off to the Muslims. The only crowd taking religion seriously these days around here

    No problem with mosques except the call to prayer.

    Good God almighty. I'm almost beginning to see why people used to call us retarded....

    We swap one oppressive religion for another. Great source of financing and potential financing to boot.
    The new purpose-built mosque will be financed from Dr al-Sattar’s family fund, his life savings, and donations from the Muslim community in Leicester. He also has plans to fundraise among the medical community in Saudi Arabia and Pakistan.

    Kilkenny is screwed then. Its going through one way or another.

    That call to prayer minaret wont last long if it starts waking Corduff up at 5.30am.

    How about a viber to prayer as an alternative? Ding ding!

    Great news. Plans for a large-scale mosque in West Dublin have been given the go-ahead by An Bord Pleanála in spite of local opposition. The four storey building will house a mosque, community centre, and primary school (but for Muslims only, tee hee!) More mosques please.

    How do you make that out? From the article -


    The Council also stated that the applicant has indicated that the school and community centre will be open to everyone.

    If you read the article it sounds like there will be no audible call to prayer. There's none in the one in Clonskeagh audible outside the building either.

    the call to prayer is no more annoying than the angelus!

    The Islamic colonization of Ireland must be opposed.

    It's down the road from me. Once we aren't getting woken up with bells or whatever I don't care.

    Bad day for Ireland, first of many large scale on the way!

    Islam with its issues of terrorism building a mosque in Ireland is a silly idea considering.

    don't think they will become your overlords if you are not interested in their religion?
    live and let live

    It's a recessive and reactionary ideology that should be actively discouraged.

    If the Saudis want to fund mosques then they should only stick to the ones in their own country they should be told to **** off from here Ireland is a European non Islamic country and should remain so.

    Not from the north and most of it was before my time but that was a completely different situation to the current Islamic terror inflicting the world and anyhow why does that justify importing Islamic terror into this country.

    I don't think anyone suggested importing Islamic terror into the country?
    did I miss something?

    As a conservative male, I welcome our new Muslim friends. I intend to convert so I can reap the benefits of Islam: can have multiple wives, will no longer be bound by political correctness, can say and do as I please safe in the knowledge I can use my minority privilege as a get out of jail card.

    Can beat, assault and oppress women and feminists will defend my right to do so.

    If I decide to commit an act of terror, liberals will brush it under the carpet as the desperate actions of a 'mentally ill lone wolf' who felt alienated from society.

    Oh yes, it will be good.

    On a serious note, I don't believe all Muslims are bad people, not at all. Just that we are probably not importing the best and brightest and we really should avoid the same mistakes as continental Europe.

    Imams preaching hatred of the west and radicalising young muslins have very much to do with promoting terrorism so mosques need to be discouraged for security reasons alone.

    To quote the great Billy Connolly..

    "you know that noise you get when you shove a newly boiled potato up a donkey's ar5e?

    Well its exactly the same noise..."

    You'll be offering to sell a kidney to have big bells instead chief.

    So we'll avoid the problems in France, Germany, Sweden, Britain? Massive increase in sex crime, no go areas, terror attacks?

    By the way if you're a woman then go to hell. A muslim male like myself does not have to listen to you.
