I don't see how this example helps your rebuttal. If pictures had been taken, you could have simply discounted them as fake.
Oh, and please don't use text speak, especially in a serious context. To be fair it was pretty obvious from the first post that it was nothing more than using 'protect the children' to have a go at the country itself. There was never going to be any proof of any kind. If there had have been I don't have a problem admitting I'm wrong and gracefully bowing out (as I've done so before on these boards and others). edit: yes yes, the internet lingo is wasted here

well granny you touched a nerve with this one. just goes to show people do choose not to be taken in by these stories and as we can see from certain replies people do deal with things in all dirrerent ways. as many ghost stories we ignore, as may welsh/sheep jokes we hear, its out there, somewhere, happening and god help them. max

Max, we do deal with things in different ways and as you mentioned in your first post, we tend to give these issues thought, when something jogs our memories. Nothing much to choose between us. As years have passed and all things quieten down, I for one have assumed that everything is improving, obviously those assumptions were very wrong. Maybe they are in certain places, but there must be so many forgotten ones..it breaks my heart.

This subject obviously means so little to you and your view on other peoples sufferings. You are not likely to get photographs and proof from Missionaries on the internet..you fool. As it happens, the same person will be going to China again next year to do more. There are over 20,000 Christian Missionaries placed all over the world,and it's not for you to challenge the work they do or even the 'first hand' accounts they can divulge.There is alot more they can't talk about. Why don't you take a few exams and join them. It might be a far more worthwhile way of getting your proof instead of making rash, stupid, argumentative comments about something so tragic. I hope you can gracefully bow out now. Prick!!!

Tonight I have received first hand information about a Chinese Orphanage from a person who has done mission work out there. An orphanage, out in the country away from the towns, where the little children are tied by their feet to wooden chairs, which have holes in the seat, so they can go to the toilet whenever they need to. That would indicate that they sit without any pants or nappies on most of the time.
Having had a look on the internet tonight, I have discovered that these claims have been made before, and also many of the orphans die from malnutrition .
Why oh why are our councils, companies, world governments and us as a nation happy to make deals with the Chinese, buy their goods, support their Olympics, and have nothing to say about such dreadful human rights atrocities? If we do, it seems to be soon forgotten again.
Most have strong feelings against the suffering of animals out there, but we hear little of the plight of these tiny little children. What is our world about? The Chinese have had a cruel streak in the past I suppose and one wonders if the same is still going on in Eastern block countries.We hear little about them these days and that is no help to those little children.
Sorry, because this is first hand information, it has gone deep within me and maybe I shouldn't be posting,just felt I had to share it with some of you out there.
unfortunately money makes the world go round, it will never changeand these stories will never go away untill people are pre pared to pay the price... whatever that may be
