  1. Err, what about Abraham? and is not the whole theme of the bible the claim that "god so loved the world that he "sacrificed" his only begotten son to redeem them"
  2. Katie Hopkins has got the boot, with this and her loosing in the twitter libel case, it's really not been her year. This clip pretty must sums her up. [ame] [/ame]
  3. I have no objection to them being rounded up and dealt with by due process. In fact I think it's well over due. But I do not and will never advocate punishment without trial are these not the very British values we are so keen to protect?
  4. You don't think looking at child porn is a crime in itself? What about the abused child in the image? Anyone looking at child porn is in part responsible for the abuse. Without demand there is no supply.
  5. The Manchester bombers muslin community to the authorities about him twice, the authorities did nothing
  6. You have missed my point entirely, obviously I'm not suggesting the deaths on the road are the same as deliberate terrorist murders. All the people are just as dead. My point is that a group cannot all be judged as the same as the worst of them. The boy racer doing 70 through an estate is very different to a person who fails to see a cyclist on a busy roundabout. But jailing all motorists with out trial would solve the problem and save thousands of lives every year, so why not!!!
  7. All you ever do is ask stupid questions Of cause I don't
  8. The irony of this thread is that those spouting bile and trying to stir up hatred of all Muslims are in fact, IMO, have the very opposite affect. I'm no fan of muslims, manly because I dislike their way of life and the negative affect many of them have had on my local area, places that I loved as a child have been changed by all recognition and not for the better. I often find them rude and arrogant, but others I have found to be the "salt of the earth" offering unparalleled hospitality and humility. But this thread has made me far more sympathetic to them than I have ever felt. If they have to deal with these kinds of attitudes from my fellow country men little wonder they keep to themselves to themselves and consider themselves better than the west. How many children have died on the roads this year? I drive, maybe I and all other drivers should be locked up, without trial. Think of the lives that would be saved!!!
  9. Once you've had a Shleisling, you always disappointed by other chipper, IMO.
  10. Of cause. My mother fell down the stairs at the age of 70 and became a quadriplegic, its awful, but IMO it would have been far worse if it had happened when she was 60 or 50. She had 70 able-bodied years, which cannot be taken from her by that terrible accident.
  11. I would argue the later the better.
  12. Life is like a fairground ride, we each get our turn, if you die young you fail to get your full turn, which is sad, IMO. Also as we are the product of evolution, procreation and the passing on of ones genes is the fundamental driver in life, dying before you can complete or even begin this is also sad, IMO.
  13. Do you not think ISIS say the exact same thing about the west who drop bombs on muslims in their homelands?
  14. I'm very glad you're not my dad.
  15. What they don't chip they probably sell or use themselves. I know I do.
  16. Some years ago we did a night time removal of some dead Elms on a main road in Preston. The road was closed for us. A muslim lady from about 100 houses down from where we were working came out with a flask of tea and Tupperware tub full of samosas for us. I guess you think we were idiots for enjoying her kind gift, we should have been fearful of her kindness?
  17. You cannot be "racist" about a religion. Sure they may be "Islamophobic", but Islam is not a race.

    Nah, he looks a bit tubby Jonny, you sure it's not you?
  20. Given the amount of time will have wasted trawling though that thread I'm just impressed I'm so important to him:biggrin:
  21. So you genuinely think that tounge in cheek coment is comparable to Matelot's bile?
