Muslim Group Banned From UCL After Segregating Men And Women During Debate by obi123: 11:26am On Mar 15, 2013
An organization known as the Islamic Education and Research Academy (IERA) booked a room at University College London for a debate on Islam vs Atheism. ( meanwhile UCL is the uni the underwear bomber attended)
UCL was notified by some individuals planning to attend the event that the organizers intended to segregate the audience by gender.This was directly contrary to the policy of University College London which was founded in 1826 as a secular institution.it was the first university college in London to admit both men and women on equal merit, so this group was clearly on a long thing.

Like joke like joke despite instructions by UCL who made clear to the organizers that the event would be cancelled if there were any attempts to enforce such segregation, as people entered the venue for the debate ,they were told to use men’s or women’s entrances, they were also directed to where to sit clearly women at the back .

The segregation was halted only when one of the major speakers, US scientist Lawrence Krauss who was speaking for atheism , stormed out.

The organization has since been banned from UCL ,the world must stand up to beliefs that are clearly not taking us forward , discrimination on grounds of gender, race, religion or other irrelevant grounds must be refused at all cost.

i mean what century are these people from ? i mean where do they think they are. 3 cheers for UCL and the Professor .
Very good i say, i'm happy that the dinosaur like belief of this group was not given the time of day.
