Who do you think was chasing the spaceship that rescued Brian?

The penny drops!

Was it your uncle Fred by the way? By all accounts he isn't very good at keeping a low profile.

What have the Romans ever done for us?

For you?

How long have Giant Alien Lizards been on this planet, zeity? You know, preparing to take over and all. Just wondering. Were they here in the Roman times?

Religion and Compromise... Two words one very rarely hears in the same breath.

An African politician complained that where Muslims were in a minority, they wanted tolerance; but where they were in a majority, they wanted Sharia.

Sounds exactly like the history of the Roman Catholic Church to me.

All for gay rights generally but I do not see why they should overide the rights of others. In this case why should Catholics be expected to provide a service they believe is morally wrong? I would not mind betting that moderate gays would agree.

A compromise would have been a good idea, but as it is, some the most effective agencies will probably close for no real purpose as gays were unlikely to have used them anyway.

Everything this government does is tulipe. There is not a single damn thing they ever do that isn't.

Ah, so are you advocating that we tell people how to think? What opinions to have?

Isn't that the New Labour way?

[shaunbhoy]

I bet you rarely win it though.

Can't remember, still trying to empty the house!!

[Lucifer Box]

And what's more, I can also start an argument in an empty house!

You make me larf, SB, so that makes you a top geezer in my book.

Well go and swallow some of this "food" and stop trying to run that pocket-intellect of yours on an empty stomach!

No, you can have whatever opinion you like, but we don't have laws tailored to individuals' opinions.

Not at all, just the opposite if you read between the lines.

[wendigo100]

And who are you?

What have your feelings got to do with it?

Some interesting points here, fellas (SB's excluded) and certainly some food for thought.

But aren't you removing choice? Suppose you feel strongly - nothing to do with religion - that a child should not be placed with a homosexual couple?

And who are you?
