indeed. how do we set down the foundations of change to eradicate murder in the name of a god? Ban religion?
Im not promoting sharia law and its just my ponderings on the matter from a standpoint of little knowledge on the matter. I will have a chat with the Immam and get back to you... oh yes... very well written. Good piece!
Yes, the one that represents them all through the European Court of Human Rights, courtesy of Legal Aid of course................
One thing thats gripping me at the minute are the procession of bleeding heart experts who keep getting wheeled up in front of the camera to say that its "our"fault for failing to engage with hard to reach Muslim communities!!! I can only imagine that if I went to live in Saudi or Iran how the people there would bend over backwards to engage with me!! Im personally sick of this religious rubbish of all donominations. all this was made up years ago to explain the unexplainable and keep people in power and others in line, now we do understand things a bit better you think all this would have died a death.
what they should do is arm all policewomen then if the bad guys want to get shot they,ll be shot by females and apparently thet don,t like that idea
It may eventually..both of my offspring dispise religion, but so much money and power is involved..in these made up Groups ..
I might BBQ some lamb chops for lunch tomorrow and enjoy them with a couple of glasses of a young, but delicately robust, shariaz.
@Moons Re: your comment about the Saudis. 'Meanwhile, the Saudi Arabian government has confirmed that Masood worked in the country as an English teacher in two year-long stints between 2005 and 2009.'
What's getting to me is all the media coverage Where he got the car Where he stayed in Brighton Where he went to school And people who knew him in the pub
I feel the same way about all this religion stuff dividing people and gullible people being indoctrinated to bad things. I really can't understand why religion or so called religious people would even think of doing anything like this. Surely religion is supposed to be a peaceful thing. Or am I just being naive?
I genuinely believe that some of the most indefensible inequities in the world happen in that kingdom...utter poverty to a Rolls Royce for each day of the year. I think the Internet and then the Arab Spring got them papping themselves. Sponsor war, sponsor terrorism, distract from the things you get up to on home soil.
I think if you look back at some of the main stream religions most have a violent past, burning and torturing people , I think they should all be consigned to the past where they belong.
