The shape of things to come....

[SallyAnne]

You can't write that on a BB and expect it to never be thrown back at you

I dont expect anything to be thrown back at me Ardesco!

I share stuff on here about my personal life to engage in debate. Isn't that what this place is about?

I'd rather have the things I say used against me however, than never share anything about myself, like some of you on here.

It is interesting how the word racist is used to replace debate. Whilst I believe it is entirely appropriate for the UK to embrace people of mixed religion there are some "red lines" that need enforcing:

Firstly that every citizen swears an oath of allegiance to our head of state, and if called upon to fight in a war they do so (they can still be free to disagree with the Iraq war)

One school curriculum for all

Learn English to the point where we do not need to subsidise translators (or they pay for them)

If they dont like Christianity being our national religion, live with it

If the laws of the land contradict their own religious beliefs (arranged marriage) then go and live somewhere where it is legal to practice your beliefs.

Like children, people need boundaries, and if muslims were forced to live their lives according to our laws and culture, and to respect our traditions then no one would mind if their church belted out calls to prayer.

And whilst so many of you guilt ridden, patronising little nobodies are so praising the muslim faith and extolling its virtues, maybe you can show us all an example of where floods of western immigrants are applying for patriality to a muslim country?

Ok.

Hands up...

Who's Piggy?

Is it a Halal piggy?

Indeed.

The place that some immigrants & their children regard as home is not this country.

HTH.

If they are born here - its their country.

But I won't and I was born here. What are you going to do about that? Life internment? What are you planning? A fascist military dictatorship?

(they can still be free to disagree with the Iraq war)

Following your previous ruling of compulsory conscription, that's hypocrisy.

Great idea. Everyone equally stupid, ignorant and indoctrinated. Like the Merkins.

Catholic or Protestant? They are not compatible.

then they should respect it and be proud of being British.

I think Troll moved us into that one 5 pages back.

Sorry... did I misunderstand you?

I had a Muslim ram something down my throat once...couldn't really have called him ungrateful though...

For the record, I was a cheap white slag back then (still am at heart)

[M_B]

I am sure they do and are.

You're a very sad thing.

Very sad.
