    And yes you should be able to criticise/mock religion in the same way you can mock homo’s and anyone else. Lets face it the JC clique have been trying to criticise/mock people on here for years whatever their creed, religion, sexual orientation, but they are a brave clique… perhaps that should be made illegal to?

    To be fair sword some leave themselves wide open for criticism , i know i did when i first started to post on here, and still do to a certain extent, but its down to how much you are prepared to be yourself and put up with the criticisms.

    your very public fall out with PB was a prime example. lets face it sword people are people with their own insecurities, not wanting to be left out or be seen as ‘different’ in any way, this is a place where you can remain anonymous to a certain extent, be who you cant be in real life maybe? one example i want to quote is the fact i worked for a company and there was a core of women who bitc hed constantly about one or another person. one day because i said i dint want to join in the conversation about one particular person because it made me feel uncomfortable they never spoke to me again from that day!! how childish is that??

    Everyone needs to feel they are not living on the outside of everyones circle, some just have a light hearted way of dealing with life , laughing and running with the pack as maybe , but to be honest this is what keeps these message boards going….. I keep posting on here because i want to and to be honest have made some very good frends on here, sure like a lot of people i have time on me hands and do have freinds in the outside world but its not always possible to see people every day of the week so i come and do what it says on the tin here lol Just chat!!

    takes all sorts sword and lets face it we got em all here, the good , the bad and the ugly lol

    Well I made that seven questions all in the same post. Which one would you like answered first by our panel of experts, and in what order should the subsequent ones be answered?????

    Oops, was I too serious? Sorry but I thought I was in the Serious Posts area, not the local alehouse.

    No, ok, no, yes most pukka, uh-huh, what about them, of course not you crazy munchkin, repeat last bit, depends on the country, I never discuss speech crime.

    Then you may wake up one day and find your freedom of speech has been abolished after years of gradual erosion.

    I prefer kosher scrutiny to pukka, but that is just my own thoughts on this matter.

    “Kosher” comes from the repugnant practice of ritual slaughter. Kosher scrutiny of religion wouldn’t make any sense then, would it?

    Religion is man-made and therefore open to criticism, and I don’t believe in Aelius.

    I agree that religion is man-made and should be criticised. Whoever asked you to believe in me? I can assure you that I am neither a prophet nor god!

    i fink quotin pukka is a dead giveaway…………..innit!!!!!

    You have me nonplussed. Give away of what? Can’t you write English?

    Oh dear, first time poster gets mocked… that’s new.

    Thanks for the hint. How very nice to meet such friendly and kindhearted folks.

    And yes you should be able to criticise/mock religion in the same way you can mock homo’s and anyone else.

    The Labour Party doesn’t seem to agree with you.

    And they don’t seem to be bothered by religious texts that incite hatred against others. Personally I find it disgusting that books such as the Bible and Koran can incite hatred or even violence but criticism thereof is banned because it would be seen as incitement against the adherents of these two books (and others).

    PS: Since some of you seem to be so inordinately fond of the word “pukka” I hope you all have a pukka day! :lol:

    The bible or koran do not incite religious anything people incite hatred and violence and bend those texts to suit themselves if it wasnt religion it’d be some other feeble excuse for violence

    If god sees fit to criticise my Mcgregor tartan golfing trews and matching jauntily-perched tam o’ shanter, then I see no reason to desist from pointing out that a full head of glossy chestnut hair looks naff if an omnipotent one forgets to also dip his beard and whiskers into the’ Just For Men And Members Of The Holy Trinity.’
