Just because it’s the law, doesn’t mean it’s right. People should not be allowed special treatment because of their religion. Although I don’t think what you linked to supports what you were trying to say.

I will summerise the guide as I read it:

I’m sure that a paedophile who works in a primary school would say they are doing their job properly too. They could argue that being attracted to children for years and years doesn’t impact negatively on anone else’s lives.

But that doesn’t mean they should be doing that job. They are blind to the danger they pose to other people. The same is…[Read more]

It’s not the 15th century anymore, we don’t need blasphemy laws.

Your god doesn’t exist. If that offends you then that isn’t racist, just a problem with you.

The National University of Athens wanted to use some of my research to create a short series of lectures and lab excersises. So I’m here to work with the staff on that project, and to hold some introductionary sessions for any students who haven’t gone home for summer yet.

I’m sure this is true, but how much does the upper management of the site(s) mix with the workers?

I’m not even sure who the ’employer’ would be in this case. Many construction workers are self employed, or work for smaller companies who are contracted out blocks of work. The person running the site might not even know who is operating the cranes on any given day as far as I can tell.
