So, did anyone explain to this twit that he was kinda making the opposite point?
(I'm assuming he was male)
Yes he was a male student from KSA. I do not expect many to realize how stupid their communicated thoughts are when it comes to defending their views of their religion. Especially when the topic was women in Islam with the changes in the world. He was never a happy camper in the class in the first place since her husband, also a scholar, was not teaching the class. It was more of shock and awe experience. People around here rarely express their views of the other sex, race or ethnic group in public while right in front of a member of the group they are talking about.
How many times have you had to resist the urge to backhand someone?
More often than you think.
It was screwed moment as the class is supported by the MSA and local mosques for the purpose of breaking down misrepresentations of Islam. Yet right in the class there is a person which help propagate the negative view of Islam by opening their mouth letting the stupid flow. However as I have previously posted here a lot of Muslims born/converted in Canada are far more moderate and liberal. Many of the issues with Islam are being imported by waves of conservative immigrants. I know a few have linked videos about changes in the Muslim community by ultra-conservatives
Still keep forgetting you are a student. Maybe I'll never accept it.
Did your professor otherwise react well?
No she did not react well but she could do little besides moving on. He was expressing his view which is granted by freedom of speech and academic freedom.
