I did answer. it was either a yes or a no answer (besides "what are you going on about with Christians?") and I saved time by putting a ? on the end.

Re: Ban the burkha ?

But if you knew any of the basic rules of the English Language, you would realise putting a question mark on the end of a sentence changes it, strangely enough, into a question, thus also making it not an answer.

I have noticed before that you have difficulties making your postings understood due to the often garbled and confused structure of the sentences and punctuation you use - are you from the UK?

LOL my answer was no, why?
think of it as if you were to ask me if I wanted to go to bed. I'd say no, why?
then carry that thought to you asking me "can the Christians agree on anything?" and I say "no, why?"

it's not such a drama after all, is it?

Strange example for a grown man to use, from someone who hides their age as well as their occupation this remark points towards.

Re: Ban the burkha ?

Fantastic!!

Not only have the Belgians given us half decent chocolate but they've excelled themselves by protecting us from terrorism by proposing that those who break the law (by wearing a full faced veil) could face a fine of 15-25 euros (£13-£27) or a seven-day jail sentence.

The prospect of a £27.00 fine or a seven day jail sentence - levied in Belgium - will undoubtedly make any veil wearing muslim think twice about being the first ever, hitherto unproven veil wearing female muslim terrorist to be apprehended on uk soil whilst planning, pre-empting or having carried out a terrorist attack.


Reuters are reporting that being a potential hitherto unidentified "veil wearing potential (see hypothetical) female muslim terrorist" is considerably less risk averse than not being a "veil wearing potential (see: hypothetical) female muslim terrorist. They even have the dead reporters to prove it.

In the style of a certain poster.....

Re: Ban the burkha ?

I have a problem with ruling. Whilst i agree that in security sensitive areas it is necessary to remove face covering i don't see why it can't be worn in public areas .In my opinion all that will happen is the women whose husbands insist on them wearing a bhurka will not be allowed out and will further erode the rights of these women ,so i think it's a step to far
