All I can say is "Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster".

Many things that go against our beliefs as a society are acceptable for religious reasons in what is supposed to be an enlightened secular society.

Sorry Fiddledog, I won't dirty my mouse by clicking on a link involving the SNN.

Bigot.

At least the prof told this zealot to fuck off.

The dean should resign for being such a coward and a twat.



Wonder how much longer that will happen.

The director of the Centre for Human Rights also weighed in on the decision in an email to Grayson.


“While I fully share your initial impression, the OHRC does require accommodations based on religious observances.”

Unless those observances are Christian, then the person can go fuck themselves.

What is it with York University, anyway? So much that's nutty seems to come out of there. It competes with Rob Ford for Toronto's answer to the Florida Man Meme

Well, I got my hands--er, mouse dirty and saw that the link leads to...

...the Toronto Star?

The video he posted. I read the article, but I won't click on a video from the Sun News Network. Nor will I from CNN, MSNBC, anything to do with Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Nancy Grace . . .

At least I'm a consistent bigot.

Religious individual asks to be segregated from female students....prof says no it`s offensive to women.....student accepts decision....some busy body PC nazi in admin decides to take issue and demands that the male student be accommodated and should be segregated from women. Ridiculous

I`m guessing that the adminhole is a white liberal

I watched the video, but ignored the article from The Red Star.

I knew some here like that partisan left stuff though, so I added it to the story for them. The video was a debate showing both sides. I like that kind of stuff. I've read the star before, it just didn't seem necessary to read here. The Sun had a lefty represent that side in the video.

I don't like extreme left any more than extreme right.

Ok, I watched the video. Not nearly as bad as anything from Ezra. Pretty tame. I did like the "Friends don't let Friends go to York" comment.

But I agree, segregating men and women punishes men more than women. If we are to be equal; they people need to suck it up, and realize Canada is a secular society and women and men are equal. If one guy is so offended by women that he won't take classes with them, that's fine he'll just have to not take that class. Put on his big boy pants, as it were.

What if this was a Muslim woman asking to be separated from men? We've certainly had instances of women only situations that were deemed legit - so here she's got being a woman and religious grounds on her side. Love to see the outcome of that.

I don't think there's much doubt what the outcome would be.
