Are you saying that the culture that tolerates or even encourages stoning of adulterers or honour killings is not objectivelly inferior to culture that cherishes basic human rights?

Wireless? Look, latins use to say: “Barba non facit philosophum” which means A beard does not constitute a philosopher. Hey dude, be a man and handle the conversation as such. The cave remark was as ironical as was yours. As for the brainwashing I can swear to you is not from Koran...
Ironic, metaphoric or allegorical? You have to decide which one. But, do I have a beard?
Look, outside of the cave there is a very bright light which might blind my eye. May I stay as a mediator between "outside" and "inside"?

These things you mention above are practiced in a very minor population and very rarely.

Yes i can.
Before Ottoman Empire. Now, Iran, Egypt, Lebanon, Turkey etc..
But you will not understand it, and even after little bit research and understand what i mean, you will not accept it.

listen here whack job....dont try to tell me what my team emblem stands for. south sydney rabbits have been around since 1908 before the word "multiculture" was even thought off. it stems from a bloke who used to go around the suburbs of south sydney calling out "rabbits". and do u know why he did that.....cause he was selling them. so dont you dare attack me and try to disrail this thread with poppy cock trash talk.
and too all the other trying to derail this thread......i can only speak for myself when i say i never anywhere on thread mentioned muslims or any other religion.
someone a few pages ago mentioned the figures for immigration quoting its only about 10% of the population thats immigrants......yes, you are probably right but the fact is they are only going to about 3 cities. sydney, melbourne and to a lesser extent perth. they are not spread out over the country and "melting" in. they are taking over the look, culture and actually changing the whole suburb to represent their homeland from where they came. when i drive through a suburb and cant even read the name of one shop because they are not in english...which is this countries language...then yes i do have a problem.
so here you go and i will lay it all out on the line.
im over the amount of middle eastern immigrants
i am over the african immigrants
and im over the indian immigrants.
as i said in an earlier post. you only need to drive 1 hour in any direction out of sydney and the western suburbs and you will be lucky to find an immigrant.
so go ahead and slam me all you want. call me racist, tell me we are all immigrants say whatever cause i could not give a damn. ;you dont live here, you dont know what we are talking about and you are just trying to justify your own political beliefs. and one last thing.....you are very quick to put those of us with an opinion down but are we not just doing exactly what you are doing.....expressing an opinion?

if my above post sounds like a rant then it probably is. i have been awake now for over 30 hours as i have just completed a night shift in one of sydney's busiest emergency units. because you see....someone has to work to pay taxes so they can build new building on christmas island to replace the ones that illegal refugees burnt down this week.

If they changed it for the sake of multiculturalism than you can obviously tell that people are trying desperately to include other cultures.
The issue is other cultures not being accepting of the host nation and trying to turn it into a copy of where they came from.
The issue of over immigration is worth discussing too, not just them not integrating into society.

What a scumbag thing to do, bringing up personal thing like you do. Perhaps his grandfather was a supporter of the club and now you attack him for it?
I wonder if you do this and not stick to the topic because your piss weak argument has run out of steam?
