    Muhammad Cartoon Controversy

    Given that your prophet is a symbol, couldn't that particular cartoon be trying to suggest that the 'issue' of Islam in Denmark is reaching a crisis point? Or, more broadly, couldn't it be highlighting the way in which extremists have hijacked your prophet's message in order to further their own...

    Why religion is bullshit IMO

    That they are. If anyone would like to continue with this debate in a serious manner, please turn to the 'Does God exist?' thread.

    Does God exist?

    Is there much point in debating what many christians do not take literally? Surely there are other god-related issues to discuss, issues that are more worthy of our time?

    Does God exist?

    Sasha, what are you trying to prove?

    RU486 will make us muslim

    Try not to carry the joke too far, please. Edit: As we all know, humour is subjective (and as I once said, dark humour is at its best when it is provocactive), and though this particular comment may not be too my liking, I am more than willing to let the odd attempt at inappropriate humour...

    New Moderators & Farewell

    On behalf of everyone, I'd like to thank Moonlight once again for the time that he spent moderating this sub-forum. On another note, I'd like to stress the following point - If you consider a post to be inappropriate (please refer to the guidelines for an indication as to what is...

    Who do you look up to?

    Yes, this article may be a day old, but I thought that it would be a good starting point for our own discussion regarding the people that we look up to (in a NCAP sense, of course). The singer, the crim and the scientist: who we look up to As the article states, the list compiled by the...

    Abortion debate

    A grand claim, but one that cannot be upheld scientifically. Edit: If NTB doesn't mind, I'd like to add my own request for a response to his question. Edit 2: As for the 'emotive arguments' claim... I think that that is an interesting claim for one such as junky to make. If my memory...

    Liberal control of the Senate

    *bump* Labor angry at Govt move to block AWB questions Opposition angry over Senate AWB gag An interesting development, and one more suited to this thread than it is the one specificly discussing the AWB affair.

    RU486 will make us muslim

    'you people'? I'm sure that I'm not alone in wondering who it is that you are referring to.

    RU486 will make us muslim

    Of all the comments that I have read/heard today regarding the RU 486 debate, this one has to have been one of the best. It even beats her very own 'Gallipoli in Victoria' suggestion, if that can be believed.

    RU486 - Abortion Pill

    There's nothing necessarily wrong with the anger, I just think that there are more constructive ways to channel it. As for those some generally associate with the Hillsong Church, apart from asking such members to try and write in a form of English that the rest of us can comprehend, there's...

    RU486 - Abortion Pill

    Given the nature of the account, my assumption was more than fair. As for the rest... I suggest that you try and be more polite in the future.

    RU486 - Abortion Pill

    Two points - 1. As serious as some contributions may be, I don't think that there's a place for the language that some otherwise trolling members consider to be appropriate. As valid as some of their concerns may be, there's nothing to be gained by presenting their point in such a poor...

    RU486 - Abortion Pill

    Neither are trolls, yet they continue to pop up every now and again. As I said, keep it somewhat civil (at the very least) and relevant. Edit: Just take the above as a general statement that applies to everyone.

    IR reforms -- anyone been hit?

    As leftrightout's link shows, the bulk of the legislation comes into effect sometime in March. As of the current moment, nobody has been hit by the actual reform agenda, but some may have been subjected to related actions (such as new union agreements, unscrupulous employers acting before it is...

    Iemma's dirty mouth

    Premier no. 2 - Cameras catch Beattie swearing Beattie swears he holds deputy in highest regard *shakes head* The joys of living life in the spotlight... Even the most mundane of words spoken in a thankful manner can give some sort of ammution (however meaningless) to what I believe...

    Labor's Future

    As far as I'm concerned, all that is truly needed is someone with both the strength and the will to kick the factional hacks back into line. As much as this may pain some, the factions are here to stay, so it would be best if the ALP used them for the betterment of the party and the nation-state...

    Muhammad Cartoon Controversy

    You're a little late... Not only is the article almost a week old, but it (or one discussing the same point of interest) has been posted before. There's really no need for the one article to be posted more than once, let alone 3, 4 or 5 times.
