| Swedish state to train imams | |
| 2008-02-07 | |
| The Swedish government is to set up an inquiry to look into the possibility of using state funds to provide training programmes for imams. Muslim religious representatives should be able to benefit from Swedish tax kronor in the same way as Christian priests and ministers, according to Minster for Higher Education and Research Lars Leijonborg. The former Liberal Party leader also believes that the move will help stem the development of radical Islam in Sweden.

| #6 According to legend, Napoleon wanted to rewrite the Koran. Maybe the Swedes have the same idea. After a generation or two, Swedish muslims might not know the difference. Think of the possibilities. |

| #4 I suspect that their intent is do get the younger Imams sucking on the government teat like all the other little piggies, so much so that they won't want to rock the apple cart. |

| #2 I suppose this could work so long as they don't use the koran, the hadith, and the sira as teaching aids. |
