PLUS DE PORC DANS LES PRISONS US

Judge: Forcing all inmates to eat same (halal) diet not discrimination

In order to alleviate the complaints of some Muslims, a former Navy chaplain who fights to defend religious freedom says Ohio prisons are forcing all inmates to adhere to a strict Islamic diet.

 A federal judge recently threw out prisoner James Rivers’ lawsuit against Ohio Prison director Gary Mohr’s decision to ban pork from kitchens in all prisons under control of the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction.

That was Mohr’s solution when Muslims threatened a lawsuit, demanding that they be served strict “halal” meals.

Former Navy Chaplain Dr. Gordon Klingenschmitt, who runs The Pray In Jesus Name Project, reports that Judge James S. Guin ruled the prison’s no-pork diet does not violate the Constitution. But he points out that Christian inmates have no dietary rights.

“This is another example of the Islamicization [sic] of America. It’s establishing Islam as the state religion of the prison system,” Klingenschmitt contends. “The judge’s reasoning is this: He said as long as all of the prisoners are forced to eat the same food, then there’s no discrimination taking place. In other words, if he enforces Muslim law equally, then there’s no establishment of religion. I think that’s wrong, and I pray this is overturned on the appeal.”

This is another reason Klingenschmitt is encouraging believers to sign his online petition urging Congress to pass HR 973 in order to stop activist judges from enforcing sharia law in American courts.
