What Do You Think Channel 4
Is hoping to gain by this.

I'm curious as to why they are doing this. I would imagine that most Muslims would already have something in place and would also presume judging by some of the comments (Yes I know it's the Mail but their readers are viewers too)
that this will alienate some.
So I can only see a lose/lose situation here.
Any thoughts?

I'd be rather more concerned about the entire channel dedicated to Christianity that is God TV, which yesterday had a series of programmes dedicated to rubbishing Science in favour of Creationism. That's far more disturbing, frankly, that prayers at 3am that most of the Target audience already have covered anyhow.

Perhaps that is why you have such tunnelled beliefs, you are not prepared to read the source of many different view points.
Even the Guardian are prepared to report on both sides of the issue, even I wouldn't have know that if I also wasn't prepared to read other newspapers.

The Times, no because one has to subscribe to read their web-site, the Economist no, but then I also don't read The Daily Worker or The Peking Times, but I do read the Independent and also the Daily Mirror.
What newspapers do you read Jim?

Did you not see my post where I wrote:
Unless a demographic is (fairly or, in most cases, unfairly) associated with a particular character trait, the joke doesn't work
Why do you then go on to say that I think of Scots as being mean?
Scots meanness, like that of Jews is a standard comedy trope. It's like black men being lazy and Irish being stupid.
These aren't rules I've laid out...I'm just referring to them.
So I ask again...why do you think Muslims are workshy? It's something I've never come across before.
