They have a medieval mind set and that's all there is to it, you can dress it up as religion any way you want. It still boils down to the fact that they are unrequited killers, devoid of any humanity. Not quite the wording I'd choose but I agree with the sentiments. Globalisation comes out of greed for more profits, not for the furtherance of the human race as some would like to state. But globalisation doesn't make allowances for different morals, laws, ethics, economy, development etc of different cultures. As an analogy, how about putting goldfish and piranha in the same tank.

No excuses were given, in fact I was allocating blame and agreeing with your viewpoint.

No, you went on the "globalisation" rant. You know I don't agree with that analysis.

They are a different culture, globalisation brings cultures together.
Surely that is fact?
Globalisation is caused by greed for profit.
Surely that is fact? Or is it one of those right wing things that is true but nobody is supposed to state it?

We're opposite polarities. I'm going to leave it at that and bog off.

I've yet to meet anyone since 1979 that can say anything positive about right wing principles. They usually start bashing the Labour party (which is hardly left of centre anyway) and end by extolling the virtues of greed.
There are many left wing principles I disagree with but I fail to find any uniquely right wing principles I can agree with - and nobody seems to be able to provide any.

This is the sort of thing which dismays me. It may not happen, but in times of such turbulence, why even consider putting this on display if it is as they say ? I imagine that Birmingham will become a place of 'Homage' and the Muslim world will come in droves from every corner of the world ! When security is so high, how can anyone even suggest another mad hatter idea ? It could have been kept quiet in the vaults for a few more decades, I would have thought. It's also strange how they can make a public announcement about this earliest carbon dated specimen of the Quran, but for some reason, the Turin Shroud has never been given the all clear for results of carbon dating. It seems to constantly change. There again, nobody has ever been able to deny it either. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-33436021

Got to laugh at your poster Rude, last I heard the National Blood Transfusion service was crying out for donors from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic communities, are you limping?
