NYT: Muslim Swimming Pools Are ‘Inclusive,’ Jewish Pools Are ‘Theocratic’

Two recent articles published in The New York Times show remarkably different attitudes towards special religious accommodations, with the Times praising concessions to Muslims as “inclusive” while an identical concession to Orthodox Jews is described as “theocratic” and highly objectionable.

The issue at hand is special women-only swim times at public pools. Both Islam and Orthodox Judaism require women to dress modestly around men, and both often practice sex segregation to varying degrees. In an effort to accommodate them, some pools have created women-only swimming times so that women who can’t swim around men also have access to the pool.

There is nothing more offensive to a secular Jewish person than a religious one.
The residents of Iroquois Territory shall not determine if Jews may  live in Jerusalem.
