I would agree with that if not speaking english only impacted the individual who couldn't speak it, but that is obviously not the case. There are plenty of situations where other people have to communicate with these non-english speaking people and it is impossible. Enough people not speaking...

So because the parents who should know better don't pass this information onto their children it is the governments fault.... that makes sense.

All that proves is that we should be tougher on English ability of people. It doesn't matter who cares. If someone wants to become a citizen they just need to answer them. Like muslims wanting to enforce sharia law in some parts of the community where they are dominant. So its a little...

The questions are irrelevant. It's about making people put some effort into becoming a citizen instead of getting something for nothing.

It didn't force people to be informed about Australia before they became a citizen. This makes people work harder. A test does it better. I don't mean to stop it as a defense for breaking laws. I mean it to stop is as an excuse for demanding special treatment and stuff.

Those two statements are both wrong.... but if the point of this exam is to make baseless statements about athiests to make them seem inferior to christians then you are doing well.

....because there needs to be one. Something is better than nothing at all. There are laws and value questions in this one and it doesn't hurt to know some Australian history. I think the 'trivia' should stay, even if that means making the test 50 questions and making sure 30 of those are...

There are some values questions, there just aren't 200 of them that can be used to randomly generate a set of 20 for people to answer. Since everyone should be reading the information book first anyway they will (should) know the values even if they don't get 15 questions on them. Obviously...

It doesn't matter if cricket is an Australian value or not. The citizenship information book says bradman played cricket and so having read the book you should be able to answer that question.

I wouldn't of made that mistake if I was using firefox. My palm doesn't check spelling... I am in a lecture now with 4 other people being delivered by a person who I am smarter than. That is exactly my point. It is so ridiculously easy yet people still complain that they shouldn't have to do...

The questions themselves are irrelevant. It makes no difference what they are. Having to pass a test is just a way of making people prove they care, by putting in effort to read the information book. Australian citizenship is not a right, it is a privelage and should be treated as a privelage.

Having to answer 20 easy questions is not too much to ask for the opportunity to become an Australian citizen.

Firefox has an option to automatically delete that shit when you quit... apple is shit

No one ever claims racism when non-white countries don't let in white people. It's a ridiculous double standard.

Morality has nothing to do with religion.

I guess your parents will find out you've been looking at porn now.

I didn't even bother turning my ducted air con on today... it wasn't that hot.

You can go ahead and do that if you want but its not going to work.

I didn't contradict myself. I don't think we should fix the problem. I just don't understand how you can claim you are so moral by letting all these people come to Australia but leave other people who are EQUAL are still over there to be killed. What better way? There is no better way. The...

How is letting a whole bunch of people come to Australia and bother us a solution? There will still be people left over there being raped, tortured and killed. Wouldn't it make more sense to fix the cause of the problem?
