    Geez Mello, are you implying they should have sought council approval first?

    Some of you blokes really ought to watch that show on SBS with Jamali Maddix. You would be able to see what some of your Yank counterparts look like.


    Edited for spelling.

    bob, not sure what you would like me to say -
    my comments are directed at their contempt of their hosts and their customs and dare i say it, but they introduced it, contempt towards their religion - not a good foundation to build a church on

    i have no other recommendation for these particular blokes other than grow a pair of tolerances - and stop rorting the system

    @mello I may be missing something, but the stories in your last couple of posts have SFA to do with religion "rorting the system" here in Australia.

    then what are you asking me about - the blokes in the OP rorting the system or the other two posts of examples of "doing it for religion"

    sounds like you mentioned the blokes and now want to question my other two posts - whats going on champ?
    does the thread need to only exclusively talk about the impending riot at Hawkesbury or are examples of "losing my religion" acceptable in a thread titled "religion again used as an excuse"

    i found two more examples - one where children are indoctrinated and yet their guardian is saying it is just a "show of religion" - AK-47 style, and the other one was using a vehicle to kill innocents in "the name of religion"
    all three examples are varying degrees of the same thing - when you look at it closer

    what is your - umm - interest ? - thread integrity ? control? political correctness ? other ?

    i also have a right to ask ;-)

    Firstly champ, don't call me champ.., LOL

    You can link all the stories you like about different religions, and how nasty they are, but does it add to the OP, which was about a particular religious group, Diwan Al Dawla, and their contempt for Australian law in the illegal land development. The only link in the articles you attached, is that they are also about Muslims.

    It would be the same as if I linked stories about Catholic paedophiles, tenuously linked by the fact that they flaunted the law too?

    At the end of the day, many religions and corporations rort the system here in Australia, it's just that some are more newsworthy than others.

    Oh I forgot to answer your question... My interest? Mostly it's just that it pisses me off, how many posts here tend to get derailed by rants from people pushing their own agenda, without actually adding anything to the original post.

    we all see things differently sometimes, and specific issues stand out more than others

    umm no it wouldnt, not by a long shot because the crimes you describe have never been attributed to being committed in the name of religion as the three examples i gave have

    see, you did miss something

    Perportedly by Jiggs McDonald, NHL Hall of Fame broadcaster speaking in Ontario:

    "I am truly perplexed that so many of my friends are against another mosque being built in Toronto. I think it should be the goal of every Canadian to be tolerant regardless of their religious beliefs. Thus the mosque should be allowed, in an effort to promote tolerance."

    "That is why I also propose that two nightclubs be opened next door to the mosque; thereby promoting tolerance from within the mosque. We could call one of the clubs, which would be gay, "The Turban Cowboy," and the other, a topless bar, would be called "You Mecca Me Hot."

    "Next door should be a butcher shop that specializes in pork, and adjacent to that an open-pit barbecue pork restaurant, called “Iraq of Ribs."

    Across the street, there could be a lingerie store called "Victoria Keeps Nothing Secret," with sexy mannequins in the window modeling the goods, and on the other side, a liquor store called " Morehammered."

    "All of this would encourage Muslims to demonstrate the tolerance they demand of us.”

    Yes we should promote tolerance, and you can do your part by passing this on.

    And if you are not laughing or smiling at this point, it is midnight at the oasis and time to put your camel to bed.
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...

    Probably not much, unless they had read Camus, or give a fvck about a schoolboy's interpretation of his novel. In effect, it's a story about a French colonist in Algeria (The Stranger), who murders an Algerian man, over a dispute between his friend and the brother of the friends girlfriend, and is subsequently executed for the crime. So, unless they are into analysing classic French literature, they'd probably just take it at face value, and mistakenly see it as something a bit racist.


    eh sport... ;-)
