Foxy: What causes Christians to bomb abortion clinics
I suppose those who believe in an eye for an eye. Posted by runner, Friday, 22 August 2014 3:19:37 PM

Dear runner,
No. Christians don't believe in "an eye for an eye," at all. It's only the fanatics and extremists within Christianity that. The most radical aspect of the teachings of Christ is his insistence on forgineness. And even the religions that do believe in an "eye-for-an eye..." like Judaism - have many non-violent Jews in their group who are committed to peace. Therefore - an entire group of people- or the majority cannot and should not be tarnished by the actions of fundamentalists within their group. Posted by Foxy, Friday, 22 August 2014 6:16:45 PM

True Foxy. But when you are a Moderate Moslem & are threatened with beheading you suddenly turn into an Islamic Fundamentalist, very quickly. Foxy: like Judaism - have many non-violent Jews in their group who are committed to peace. Strangely the Jews with the various Funny Hats, Ringlets, etc, that aren't even allowed to breathe on the Sabbath are the most violent mostly towards other Jews. Foxy: What causes Christians to bomb abortion clinics Yair, but they're American Fundamental Evangelists. Special emphasis on the Mental bit. Don't like Fundamentalist of any description, Nutters.

Dear Jayb,
Unfortunately there are religious nutters all over the globe. Not only in the US. That's why it is important to allow for individual differences within groups. Not everyone believes in the same things or acts accordingly - even when threatened with death. Dr Al Muderis is an excellent example - he refused to cut off people's ears when instructed to do so by Saddam Hussein and - he fled his native country and came to Australia as an asylum seeker - studied, worked hard, and today is a miracle worker supplying robotic limbs. You can Google his life story on the web. And he's not alone in contributing to our society. Posted by Foxy, Friday, 22 August 2014 6:56:28 PM

I have no doubt of that, however there are a lot more, dealing Drugs, Rape, Pushing for Sharia Law & a Caliphate in Australia, running Bikie Criminal Groups, Car Recyclers etc. A lot more of the former that are willing to assimilate & lot less of the latter that have no respect for Australia or it people at all. Hear is a message from one of the people you & your Ilk support. Remember either you convert or...

My experience as a student in delivering foodstuffs to ethnic takeaways/restaurants outside of their normal business hours would challenge the cost/benefit to the community of that.
If only the public were aware of the very poor resourcing of health inspection and understand that health inspectors have other roles to fulfill as well. As well, those dubious types who own and operate those businesses often have a lot of swing with local members, somehow.
Just a few are up for 'name'n'shame' in the newspaper, and after years of second chances and slaps on the wrist with a feather.
Try walking past some after hours.
