The University of Glasgow was one of the premier universities of the European Enlightenment. Francis Hutcheson taught there, as did Adam Smith.
One of their more recent graduates is Farhat Hashemi who teaches women to be subservient to their husbands, allow him to have multiple wives and always wear the Hijab. Her degree from the University of Glasgow is in Hadith Studies!
Talk about cultural suicide. Hutcheson and Smith must be turning over in their graves.

Now someone is going to say, "but wait those evil right wing American Christians have been doing it for years, so its OK!"

But no its not, its BS. We in the west should not accept this behavor in our countries.

If it is a class about the hadith, obviously she is going to teach the hadith.

I speed read a few articles of hers, and yes, she's screwed up. So are her students.

Since it's a religion and a private institute you really can't do much about it in western societies.

We all know that conservatives rule higher education.

Scotland has really rolled over to Islamic facists........

She teaches subservience thru her schools, her website and her lectures. According to what I have read, she is currently residing (illegally) in Canada.

So then the University of Glasgow doesn't sponsor the teaching, she just happens to have graduated there.
I think it would be funny if she became very popular with fundamentalists. "Come and speak to our throng of believers. Now shut up and walk behind me!"

"recieved her degree in Hadith sciences..." makes me wannapuke.

Unbelievable but not surprising. Hitchens et al have been warning against this kind of degeneration for some time. I've just read a book called "The man who found time" about James Hutton and the Scottish enlightenment. Hutton being the founder of modern Geology thru the realization of the age of the earth.

The idea that one of the two universities at the forefront of this movement could now actually have degrees in fundamentalist religious crap is nauseating.

Mark Steyn is right.

That's a great book. There's a little garden in Edinburgh at the site of Hutton's house. You can sit there and get a view of the Salisbury Crags and Arthur's seat which must have inspired Hutton to think about the age of the Earth.
I took students to that very site after a geology professor friend of mine and I got very pissed when we learned the bookstore at Grand Canyon National Park was selling a Christian fundamentalist book which explained how the canyon was formed in 6000 years.
Little did I realize that the same intellectually degrading nonsense had wormed it's way into the very universities I was teaching my students were the epitome of critical reason.

It happens. I personally know one person who thinks women should basically bow down to men. This one nameless guy goes to his church's "men's retreats" where the men are taught how to be a good husband. They are taught how women are to be good wives. Upon returning home he emails her a list of things he expects his wife to get done when he gets home from work. That didn't go over very well.

In Colorado and Scotland. I taught a course on the Scottish Enlightenment which culminated with a trip to Scotland. I've done it twice.
We wanted to take students to Siccar Point which Hutton discovered while sailing along the shoreline east of Edinburgh but it's hard to get to with a group of students. You end up having to hike thru a series of farmer's fields in order to see the point. Much easier to see from the water.
