Muslim pupil offended by the word 'jamón' in class in Cádiz The parents of a Muslim boy who attends a secondary school in La LÃnea, Cádiz province, have reported their son’s teacher for an incident in the boy’s geography class which the child said caused him offence as a Muslim. The teacher, with more than 20 years in the profession, was explaining to the class how the cold climate in Trevélez, Granada province, aided in the curing of the village’s most famous local product, jamón serrano. The boy told his teacher that hearing the word ‘ham’ in class was offensive to him because of his religion and asked his geography teacher to stop referring to the product which caused him offence. The story So stupid it's hilarious Wonder why so many Europeans don't welcome them?
Well I have seen stupid Christians too. So if you are point was that all religious have a very high percapita stupid people ratio then I agree
I don't see how using the word ham is offensive lol, people have the right to say what ever they want... Hearing death to America chants is offensive, but who the hell are we to say they can't say it lol If the Muslim world allowed their people the freedom of speech, then hearing the word ham wound not be so offensive, it would go in one ear and out the other
He was wrong in getting offended, he should not have requested to stop using the word"ham". You guys always try to discredit Islaam by looking at the actions of certain Muslims, which shows your ignorance. A number of European countries are Muslim majority, and Muslims have ruled Spain for approx 600 years. So, don't be so ignorant to "wonder why" they are not welcomed, they are already in Europe, no need to be welcomed. SP
To be offended by "ham" was ignorant not for the kid by the parents. I don't think I've ever heard that Muslims can't use "ham" word before, they just can't eat it. And no need to make this a big issue.
Was someone talking about the intelligence of this piece of jamon ? Cuz his a shining example . As for those parents they need to be catapulted over the Mediterranean to much more civilized places like Algeria , Morocco or my personal favorite the Sub-Sahara zone . They can be happy there .
I don't either or what's the big deal ? In Asia such as Malaysia, Singapore, Borneo and the Philippines as such both Muslim and Christian walk through smell of pork in streets, see pork cooking daily.
I think religion don't teach to hate but its the followers of religion n miss communication or preachers which causes this kind of things
