Like the Albanians?

The figures are bonkers.

2021 800

2022 12,000

Why on earth are we granting asylum to a decent percentage of them? It's not a war torn country.

interesting, youre thinking those with stronger religious views are more against immigrants? or vice versa?

i think its possible but my suggestion would be the more strongly religious might be against other religions

im pretty much religion free and couldnt give a crap about what anyone else chooses to believe or how they live their life as long as theyre not shitting all over anyone elses life and beliefs 

i was playing hangman a lot in school and missed lots of history but im pretty sure religion has caused a war or two here and there

but then so has people being aunts

I've found that most people I've met who label themselves as Christian are as far removed from Christ-like behaviour as could possibly be. 

 

Love thy neighbour, rich men shitting through the eye of a needle (or something?), sinners throwing stones at a greenhouse, etc.

 

Christ be horrified to see what 2000 years has done to his teachings, he would be chucking all of your shit right out of the temple. 

Nice fella, he had some great ideas, I'd love to have a glass of wine with him. I reckon we'd have gotten on great. It's a real pity about the millions of shitty people taking his name in vain these days.
