The idea that one cannot even raise questions about the wisdom of oath-taking on the Qur’an is in line with the Left’s sinister and increasingly open authoritarianism, but it is not in line with the American principle of free inquiry.“First Muslim Police Chief in US City Sworn in with Hand on Quran,” by Safaa Kasraoui, Morocco World News, February 16, 2020 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):__________________________________________________________________ SEE OUR PREVIOUS POST:Rabat – US has appointed a Muslim police chief for the city of Paterson, New Jersey, earlier this month.Ibrahim “Mike” Baycora is the city of Paterson’s first Turkish-American and Muslim police chief, Anadolu Agency reported.A video shows the security personnel putting his left hand on Quran to swear in during a ceremony at city hall has gone viral.The 60-year old chief has been serving at Paterson’s police department for over three decades.Proud of the promotion, Baycora said he considers Paterson as his home “for the better part of a half a century.”“Paterson has been in my blood my whole life, and now to be its police chief after a 32-year career — what an honor!”He said he does not think that his religio [sic] will make a difference….PATERSON, NEW JERSEY CITY COUNCIL ORDINANCE WILL ALLOW ISLAMIC CALL TO PRAYER OVER LOUDSPEAKERS
