He was an insightful thinker. You don't have to agree with everything he said to appreciate some of his observations.

That's just plain silly.

 

Notwithstanding the fact that it is belief in God that is the root problem of many of the complications we are talking about on this thread.

Exactly! It's not that they will believe nothing or anything. It's that they will believe what they are "free" to choose to believe. 

 

I don't believe in "anything" per se! Yet I would gladly give my life for the people I love. I'll then be dead, and nothingness will be my reward. Does that make me a better person than a believer? Being good for the gain of literal nothingness?

 

Crap quote! All it illustrated was that he had a mind capable of basic thought and nothing more!

There's a difference between saying things that may be termed 'Pollitically Incorrect' and being a racist.  As said earlier, it's all about the intent.

 

The thing is any debate on immigration has been shouted down as "racist" by people like you. I think it's now inevitable that the extreme right wing will be elected into political office all over Europe. Your side of the debate could have listened to the concerns of the electorate. However you decided to shout them down as "racists" and ignore their concerns.

 

Nice one Mark.

Sorry, I think it's you that believes in a bunch of fairytales. You think bringing some of the most violent people on earth into Europe is a good idea. You're absolutedly deluded but you can't see it!

It's well known that France had a "temporary" state of emergency for two years. Why would the Sun need to photoshop an image showing French soldiers on a beach? Here's a photo of a French soldier in front of the Eiffel Tower. I think many people would accept the photo as evidence that multiculturalism has failed. 

 

Anyway, you have a good day baking!

Glad to see you finally did a bit of leg work on your universities, in the internet browser tab ;) 

 

Seeing as pictures can speak a thousand words, would you care to explain what duck duck inc is and why you choose to use that search engine also what’s the DOBS..... forum your on?

 

Pictures and words matey boy pictures and words, your not painting yourself in a good picture.

Have a think about this Idiot, from a moral philosophical stance. It's a very old concept but there's a certain rational imperative to it.

Should we be encouraging more young Britons to be Doctors and Nurses?...YES.
In the meantime, should we encourage qualified migrants to fill the shortfall?....YES
My missus just gave up nursing after a 30 year career, she'd had enough of the NHS and greedy people putting profits and costs before patient care.

This has to be the first time in history that people from failed cultures have been allowed to move to succesful countries and been given free money and houses... 

It isn't.  The concept of political asylum was codified in law by the Kingdom of Kent about 1500 years ago, but refugees have been accepted throughout the world for almost as long as we have written records.  More recently, England/UK has provided for Jews in the late 1930s, Russians in 1917, Belgians in 1914, Huguenots in the 16th-18th centuries.

 

And, for a bit of proportionality... UK homes fewer than 2 refugees for every 1,000 inhabitants.  USA, less than 1.  Lebanon, over 200.

That's a load of bollocks.  I'm open to talks on immigration, I believe that it's an issue that needs to be resolved one way or another.  I  think that a points system is the way to go.  I do think that refugees should always be an exception to immigration rules though.

 

The thing is, you don't do yourself any favours by shouting about racist, when you are in fact, an actual racist.  As shown by your suggestion that you poison food aid with drugs to sterilise the recipients of said aid.

You are absolutely impossible to have a proper conversation with.

 

You constantly say I am thinking things that I absolutely do not think and then you call me deluded for thinking them!?

 

How can one possibly work with that?
