Mosque says to avoid Western holidays
'Thanksgiving Out'

This type of thing is akin to the mosque shooting itself in the foot. If it keeps this type of anti-everything western propaganda going, its membership will dwindle and the mosque will eventually die out.

Would be interesting to see the donor list for a charity that advocates not celebrating Halloween.

Also banned, it says, are: watching sports or soap operas, walking dogs, family photos, wedding bands, Western hats, mingling and shaking hands with the opposite sex.

Orthodox Jews have similar restrictions......for an example, they are not allowed to exchange money from sun down Friday to sun down Saturday. As for Halloween, there are many Chrisians who are opposed to holiday.......its considered a heathen celebration......the night that demons from the underworld can come to this world.
