US: Catholic university opens sex-segregated prayer space for Muslim students

(Davenport)  So St. Ambrose University in Davenport opened a new prayer space Tuesday for its Islamic students .  Nothing in my eyes wrong with that, if they want to pray let them. Yes there will be some who opine that in Muslims countries the reverse would not happen and that a catholic college shouldn’t be pandering to..Muslims. But hey we live in a free society and this is how we do things over here.

But one thing about the above did bother me. The prayer room, features ” sinks for ritual foot-washing,” as well as “separate areas for male and female worshippers, as  Islamic tradition calls for different prayer areas for each sex.” Excuse me, separate areas for men and women, why, in the West we pride ourselves on sexual equality, yet we excuse sexual segregation under the flag of political correctness. Can you imagine the outcry if any teaching establishment in the West expressed a bias agaisnt females, yet this is what is happening under the auspices of..Islam. It shouldn't be happened and yet for some very strange reason the feminazis who love to scream foul play at anything which places the fairer sex at a disadvantage, remain silent on the biggest group of misogynists going.
