Prayer room

[takersbabe]

yes true jason people always have a go at things they dont understand or are scared of.
me myself have a lot of different religions and faiths in my family so i respect everyones religion i may not believe in it myself but i would never mock anyones colour or beliefs.

[Jason]

We all have to learn about each other for a healthier world and community spirit............some folk just dont want to listen...........unfortunately!!

[takersbabe]

yup very true

at the end of the day we are all human and life is so very precious and in my opinion why waste time we have with arguements

[Jason]

Just politics getting in the way as Basil said earlier in this thread..............That will never go away and this will never be a peaceful world!!

[takersbabe]

which really sucks in my opinion

[Jason]

*Agreed*

takersbabe, silverscrim and Jason, thanks guys that's really heartening :cuddle: I'm touched really.

You guys are right about xenophobia, to a certain it exists in every community sometimes it’s understandable but at other times it’s completely unnecessary, none of us are aliens out of outer space, I grew up with both white and brown kids and I can assure you really we’re not all that different from each other, we’re all human, everyone wants love… ok I’ll shut up on that coz I’m starting to sound overtly soppy.



I know a few of the migrant generation South Asian Brits who are a bit reserved, can’t seem to get out of their own South Asian cliques, but I think that’s more because they’re apprehensive rather than bigoted and of course the linguistic and cultural gap makes it hard for them to communicate properly let alone assimilate, they’re not usually racist or anything coz if they had been they wouldn’t have come here in the first place…



But with some of the younger generation born here who don’t assimilate, the culture gap is not an excuse they just don’t know any better, again it goes back to the ghetto culture they were left to grow up in by their immigrant parents who being new started their lives here right at the bottom of the socio-economic ladder, maybe immigrant parents need childcare lessons and learn about their new environments and societies before they start having kids so that their children don’t end up on the fringes of society.



And Jason, yeah sure mate I’ll dig something up to shed light on my religion sometimes.



Anyways good night everyone I’m off for now.

Thank you for your insight into your life and sharing with us what some of don't know abouit the asian culture and family life.

We all have a view on the asian community,and most of it not nice..............I am becoming a volunteer to work with single parents (white and black) and i am learning all about the asian community as i am going to be working with them.

I passed my volunteer course btw to do this as well.

hey hun

no thanks needed it annoys me so much as to me people are all the same a lot of my close friends are asian and to me they are just my friends not asian i dont see the need to point out different colours and race we are all one and should start to live as one. :)

Still don't know where this supposed room actually is.

I'm off down town today, suppose I'll have to ask someone there then.

I'm now closing this thread. Thanks to the user who checked (Not mentioning a name unless they give permission) the area and confirmed that there is no such thing as a prayer room in that location. There are facilities for washing however.

I will end by saying so what if there was a prayer room? It would not be in your face and it would be multicultural.
