Lmao. Why do you keep going on about what it says then?

The action scenes will be excellent. The story will be crap. Mila Kunis will be hot.

S'about it.

Seeing as you're clearly an authority on all things Islamic, can you direct me to where it says this? As far as I can see, as long as Muslims are free to practice their religion they're allowed to live wherever they like, peacefully. And if their religious freedom is compromised, they are urged to emigrate, rather than wage "holy war" upon that country.

This quote from the Quran backs this up:

"When angels take the souls of those who die in sin against their souls, they say: In what plight were you? They replied: Weak and oppressed were we in the earth. They say: Was not the earth of God spacious enough for you to move yourselves away from evil?"

As does the story of the Makkah muslims and their emigration to Abyssinia, they were facing oppression and were urged by Mohammed to move to a Christian land where they could practice their religion peacefully.

It's an insane decision.

"Yeah, we think you're being oppressed by your husband so we're not giving you citizenship (we're cool with your husband though)."

But presenting him as a political opportunist who indiscriminately killed people is somehow better?

But I didn't do that. What a silly reply.

Not particularly true this, really. Jews and Christians were not persecuted because of their religion or forced to convert by Muhammad's ummah, because he saw them as legitimate people of God - "People of the Book". Obviously there was plenty of warring with other groups, Christian, Arab and Jewish, mainly for political and economic reasons, but to use phrases like "hell bent" and "wholesale slaughter" is just hyperbolic and largely incorrect. A lot of his ummah's conflict was with other Arab tribes, who actually were "hell bent" on the "wholesale slaughter" of all Muslims.

Early Islam's form of expansionist warfare was actually relatively liberal and revolutionary for the times (and not religiously motivated), it was insisted that once a region was conquered the original residents would remain land-owners and have a reasonable amount of independence, stopping generals from dividing the land up between themselves. Jews and Christians were granted full religious freedom in the early Islamic empires, and largely preferred Muslim rule to that of the Byzantine. During Muhammad's reign he managed to bring peace to Arabia, something never achieved before or after, and with a remarkably low amount of bloodshed, so presenting him as some bloodthirsty madman is disingenuous and/or ignorant.

If you change your laws to make special provisions for a group of people simply to appease them, you're treading on fragile ground.

What change in laws would these be, specifically?

Wow. I didn't even know he was actually the son of Oswald Mosley, just thought it was an ironic coincidence.

That was immense. Two of the best athletes in the world taking turns to knock the shit out of each other for 4 hours. Exceptional sport.

lol @ the aesthetics of metal in general.

Seem to be masterminded by pre-pubescent 12 year olds from the 80's.

The more schisms the better.

The grim words of a virgin.

I put £10 on Mugabe at 10/1 to win the election.

Just had a sneaky feeling about this one.

But if you're working part-time shouldn't you get paid less than a full-time worker beacuse you're working only part of the time?
I don't think gender has anything to do with it

Getting paid less PER HOUR.

Example - for 1 hour's work a part time female would be paid £8 whereas a man doing an identical hour's work would get paid around £11. Obviously unfair.

And this legislation only applies when candidates are identically qualified, so retarded women and black men aren't going to get a job they aren't suitable for, just for the sake of it.

But never mind let's ignore this and scream about THE FUCKING PC LEFTY LIBERAL BASTARDS OPPRESSING THE WHITE MAN WTF I BLAME THE PAKIS.

Video of the kid Nick Hogan nearly killed.

Where's his brain gone?!

Who watched it today?

What a bunch of cunts. I would love to rape and murder the families of Dennis, Dale, Jen and Co. Absolute cunts.

It only applies to equally qualified candidates.

Burberry, Fred Perry, Henry Lloyd, Ben Sherman, Kappa and Reebok.

Conclusive stuff.

I've watched quite a few Kevin Smith films recently because I thought Clerks was excellent. Turns out he can't direct anything with a budget of over $30,000 for shit though.

That should be "spa" rather than "spar". I don't think you find crap supermarkets in the wild.

Ray would kick fuck out of Bear Grylls.

A week in the wilderness with Ray would be like a week in a particularly rural 5* hotel - plenty of fine food, probably find a natural spar, lovely little warm hut, an overwhelming sense of safety as he wraps his reassuringly podgy arms around you...

The faking spaz Bear would have you dehydrated, climbing up rock faces and sucking camel shit. The posh twat.

If more countries had held a referendum, like they did with the proposed EU constitution, the results would have probably been similar to Ireland.

Indeed. The vast majority of countries' electorates would have voted the same way had they been given the chance. And a perceived erosion of sovereignty was not one of the major issues in Ireland's voting in any case, it was largely because they didn't know what exactly they were voting for, claiming it was made too hard for them to understand it. Most Irish look upon the EU very favourably.

Still, don't let facts get in the way of insulting those silly faggy liberal Europeans!

Is he pretty?

I'm sure the irony of curbing basic freedoms in the fight against people who "hate our freedom" will be hilarious one day. Also lol @ it being left up to the Tories to take a stance against authoritarianism.

As has been said, hopefully the Lords will rape this in the face.
