Would FFRF object if Dabo was Muslim?

Of course not.
There IS an agenda here. Wake up, people.

you can find the answer to that if you paid attention to anything I have said tonight.
But to catch you up, cable news is garbage and I do not watch.

Yet you "know" so much about Hannity and Fox news. Weird.
Maybe you're just repeating lib talking points from Daily Kos and Democratic Underground?

They ONLY go after Christians. Not all of their lawsuits have are against public employees either.
From what I can tell, their goal is simply to remove any display of Christianity from this country.

Wait , Dabo's not a Muslim ?
I guess I thought Swinney meant " Most High Coach" in Arabic. That's wrong too I bet.
My world seems very different now.

The reason they "only" go after Christians is because Christians are the ones pushing their religion on everyone else in this country.
If a Muslim, Jew, or Hindu did what Dabo is doing they'd be on it just like they are now. But the chances of that happening, especially at a deep South school like Clemson, are very, very slim.

Personally, I would not care if he is Christian, Buddhist, or whatever.
The FACTS are that everyone knows who/what Dabo is before ever committing to Clemson. How anyone can say he is forcing Christianity on someone is beyond me.

Not only would they object--you would object. You can't tell me that if a coach were busing players to a mosque, especially players that used to be christian that half the south and all the religious right wouldn't be wanting that coach not only fired but shipped back to muslimland (even if he were american).
Come on man--wake up to the hypocrisy. It is all about the establishment of religion. If you gain any extra benefits, real or perceived, from religious practice at Clemson (meaning Dabo or other coaches treat you differently than if that were not the case) then the University has a problem. I don't think that has happened so nothing to worry about but it shouldn't matter what the religion.

But I'll play along...your question is irrelevant
Apr 18, 2014, 12:37 AM

because this country would never let the Muslim faith become relevant on a large scale. There would never be the need to go after a Muslim coach because a Muslim coach wouldn't feel comfortable in this country selling his/her religion to players at a public institution. And the same goes for any coach of any religion other than Christianity. And god forbid an atheist coach ever invite his players to athiest meetings. This crowd would be at his door in white sheets with burning crosses before you could say, "Jesus saves." So put a little more thought into your next question, K?
Personally, I don't think this group has a leg to stand on because I don't think Dabo is awarding playing time in exchange for Bible verse recitations or trips to church. So you can rest easy...Christianity, against seemingly insurmountable odds, will fight to see another day.

Muslims aren't that far removed from Christianity
Apr 18, 2014, 12:39 AM

Christianity is based on Judaism but believe Jesus is the savior.
Muslims is based on Judaism but believe Mohammed is the prophet.
They're all pretty close. It isn't like we're talking Scientology here.

Side comment - "Father of Clemson Soccer" Coach Ibrahim
Apr 18, 2014, 5:47 PM
|

was born in a region of Palestine that is now Israel and came to Clemson back in 1967. This was the same year he asked permission and was allowed to start up our soccer program...he was our only head coach from '67 until 1994 and led us to incredible successes.
I don't know if Coach I was a practicing Jew or not - not the point of this post really.
I just find that this was fascinating -- that this was a very bold, amazing hire and move by the Clemson administration (Asst. AD Bill McClellan and AD Frank Howard) back in the day -- hiring a young Jewish immigrant in the South in the 60s to start up a sports program that was not "American"...love this place!
