    French President Sarkozy says burqas are 'not welcome' in France

    Your posts are always of a higher order, so I honestly can't understand why you've reduced your argument to this. I believe I have a valid point in reference to the 'second' argument. I've got historical references and statistics to boot, not to mention the moral superiority of the 'religion R...

    French President Sarkozy says burqas are 'not welcome' in France

    That is the idea. The principle of secularism in France, described as there being no "(religious) nation within a nation" was way too early for it's time in 1789 and it seems, from this thread, that we are still not ready for it as religious apologists continue trying to drag us down a level. I...

    French President Sarkozy says burqas are 'not welcome' in France

    Good point - I was stumped by that. They should be banned as well though, in accordance with France's secular values. I guess there just isn't that taboo associated with the nun-wear that there isn't with the burqa. For good reason though.

    French President Sarkozy says burqas are 'not welcome' in France

    Hardly. I'm not sure what kind of convoluted, or rather, traditional view of religion you have, but I can see banning it as an act more liberating than allowing it.

    Ahmadinejad wins Iranian election

    NedaNet Resource Page Don't rush into this, it's dangerous for many reasons. Good if you want to make an impact though.

    French President Sarkozy says burqas are 'not welcome' in France

    France will be an Islamic nation in 10-20 years, it's own Census has acknowledged this. What we are seeing now in France is Sarkozy invoking one of the pillars of Freedom, the Freedom from Religion. What we will see in 15ish years is what the opposite of freedom is. There is a very extreme...

    Web filters to censor video games

    Vote for who then? We have shit small parties. Family first are conservative baby boomer religious nuts, the Greens are fucking dirty hippies and the Democrats are just fucked in the head. Only ones left to vote for then are the Protectionist party xD I think I'll stick it safe with the Liberals :p

    Web filters to censor video games

    No, Counter Strike will be allowed. All games at the MA15+ rating or below are allowed, which is most games. Only games like Fallout 3, Leisure Suit Larry etc. will be banned or heavily edited. A move like this won't have that much of an impact, but it's the principals of it, that the...

    Web filters to censor video games

    Web filters to censor video games We can cry foul at Conroy all we want, but lets face the facts, even if Conroy were to resign tomorrow, the web filter policy would continue. It is not Conroy's initiative; it is Labor's initiative. Failure.
