The General Conversation Thread

'There are many thousands in this country alone who consider that violence is an acceptable way to progress their case for Islamification'

But there's no real proof of what you're saying, you'd think if what you say is true then there'll be a lot more violence here? But in my opinion I really doubt there is many Muslims here that believe violence is acceptable and it seems silly to suggest other wise.

 

[woodbine]

It is an educated guess based on the factors in my last post but here is another one for you. 90% of the indigenous UK public would agree with me and most of them would think my comments too mild. I am not suggesting lynching Muslims, or even being less than polite to them. I am just saying that there may be trouble ahead.

It's not an educated guess, just a guess.

I must say I'm with Mulder here. Unless there's some sort of actual, recent survey, no one can take anything from these seemingly random percentages.

And there will be no figures published for the simple reason that our leaders are scared of what might result from such publication. No they prefer to bombard us with acts of selflessness by good Muslims,of which I am sure there are many. But all this does is to obscure the facts that we are dealing with a medieval religion that will not compromise on modern life. No concern for the 130 dead who committed no more crime than sitting in a cafe or listening to music. We need a sense of proportion here.

Blimey - nine shots for a half round of pub golf is pretty impressive. Clearly you either need to play a tougher course (pints of Guinness and minimum three shot cocktails) or move on to the full round as that was clearly not a challenge to you. I once played a full round in Oxford city centre which ended up in carnage with two players ending up spending the night as vagrants due to their inability to move their legs and the rest of us being too insensible to find them. Happy times...

Guiness was the last hole, I can generally put a pint of the black stuff away in 5 seconds or so. Mild and the glass of wine were harder as was the sambuca just cause I hate the stuff. 18 would be tough depending on the time scale. But I do volume quite easily. We did the city of ale last year in two days a half in each pub. Me and the other last man standing managed the first 28 pubs on day one with a couple of them pints for good measure! My new favourite way to spend that bank holiday weekend.
Apparently it's not binge drinking cause it's halves!

Bah!

Whilst I wish all religion would wither and die, no religion is inherently medieval or modern. Each religion is personal to every individual. Yes each person may be influenced by their spiritual leaders but each makes there choices acording to their circumstances and influences. Islam and Muslims are more than capable of integrating into any society, that many don't is a reflection on them, their key influencers and their priorities. Some Respect women other will chose not to maybe because they may like the power, maybe that's just how life has always been around them?
And whilst I agree that the numbers above are pure guess work, I don't disagree with that guess it could be 10% of the guess it could 1000% of it we can't know. But there are advocates in those communities who see us and our lifestyles as at best poorly chosen at worst as evil. These ideas can proper gate the further from integration and acceptance the are and feel.
Whilst these are not facts my opinions are in part based on people's observations who have seen and been shocked by the cultural enclaves that have formed in some of our cities estates.

Sorry again FML, just washing the dishes now, her indoors is marking books so I get to cook and wash up tonight

Bah!

That's ok though because you can easily fill in the blanks with your completely spurious and unfounded numbers that you are plucking out of the air to support your lazy and potentially dangerous notion. Convenient

And now much concern I wonder have you ever shown to the hundreds of thousands of innocents who have been killed in their own homes over the past 15 because of your Tony's abhorrent foreign policy based on lies and deception?

I need to stop posting on this thread!!

What's everyone having for tea? And do you call it "tea" or "dinner"?

My Girlfriend is off work for the week, so she is cooking this week! I get a week off cooking. She just cooked a gorgeous Spiced Lamb Pilaf (from Good Food). Was gorgeous. Especially using the left over slow cooked roast lamb we cooked on Sunday, and the left over gravy made from the juices.

I call it dinner. Tea, is cake, scones and a hot drink.

Nice! We went to The Stag (A11, Attleborough way) for lunch on Saturday, and I had a gorgeous Beef burger with pulled Pork on top, and crispy onion rings, bit of lettuce, tomato and Gherkin. Skinny Fries. Really good Burger!

Lunch is midday, tea is taken in the afternoon 4 O'clock generally and dinner is the main meal of the day and never served before 8:00PM, I thought everyone knew that? ........
...... "Jeeves, aperitifs please"

 

[Forgot_My_Lines]

I have Dinner about 6-7. Generally about 6/half 6. Don't like eating later, feel bloated all evening.

Mate, seriously I do ALL the cooking in our house. I do all the grocery shopping and plan all of the daily meals. I'm a real foody and an amateur chef, if it was left to 'er indoors we'd have egg 'n' chips or bangers 'n' bloody mash every night !

Haha! My other half can cook very well, but I start work really early and don't stop for breaks, so I get home before her. So generally I plan all meals and cook all weekday meals. I'm a foodie too.
