      no - but I also wouldn't throw out treasured photos of someone's dead granny, even if I didn't give a stuff about her

      If they were 'treasured' you would come to collect them at some point during the several months' advanced notice of disposal

      just donate to the nearest mosque - problem solved! but no, an ignorant/disrespectful response.

      Did a single Muslim offer to take it there? Why is a university supposed to care more about a holy text than ppl who consider it holy?

      If 'muslim' and ' 'Quran' were replaced with 'scientologist' and 'Dianetics'... there would be zero outrage.

      If we're concerned about faith groups & concepts of holiness, they are.

      they're not, as Scientologists don't accord the same holiness to their physical scriptures

      I'm LDS and would not be too fussed if you chucked out our blessed sacrament bread

      but for Catholics that would be a hugely disrespectful and shocking act

      If people hold certain objects 'holy' & 'sacred', its up to them to take care of them. They can't leave them around & expect others to do it

          Definitely a major case of neglect on the part of the owners of these sacred texts. They must be getting fairly worried right about now.

          especially not if I was a university who apparently respected diversity

          Diversity exists in (& because) secular organisations do not fetishise the sacred. The fetishists are allowed to do that. Here, they didn't.
