Thank you TTBN...
I've been pretty busy lately, and one thing on top of another, you know how it is, in this busy world of ours.

I don't for a moment blame religion for terrorism, rather many of the terrorists seem to come from Daesh, and Daesh is closely connected with Islam ? That in itself doesn't mean Islam is responsible for terrorism. However if I were seeking an operative from ISIS, I wouldn't start my initial enquiries at the Catholic Cathedral, rather I'd be hotfooting to the nearest Mosque, might prove a logical starting point I would think.

And how are you NICKNAMENICK...

I should apologise for my awful syntax and other deplorable grammatical errors that make anything I write very hard to understand?
As I mentioned above, it's quite wrong to blame Islam for terrorism. It is however reasonable to equate and synthesize terrorism with Islam and inversely so.

You direct much of your criticism towards the one per-centers and you'd be quite correct. Were you aware many patched members of these intellectual giants are of Lebanese origin, therefore most have had a fairly close associating with Islam - moreover many of the Prezz's are Lebanese, some are and were, the Club's prestigious Master of Arms. So to infer the bikies are a unit unto themselves, is erroneous. Most of the 1% have large Lebanese memberships and that my friend is true.

Please I'm not suggesting Lebanese folk are inherently bad, of course they're not - however the facts do speak for themselves with bikie gangs. Another gem if you will, NICKNAMENICK...

I don't know in which State you reside. However, Long Bag is the largest prison in Australia. Interestingly, those who run the joint are the Lebanese gangs. Followed by an amalgamation of Asian gangs, followed by the bikies. If you're a white anglo - tough, you need to buy yourself protection, ask screws for non-associate status, or bucket loads of Vaseline. Choices are limited.

Dear O Sung Wu,

My husband went to a Christian Brothers School and
was told by the Catholic Chaplain to Pentridge Prison,
in Melbourne, that the largest number of offenders
in prison under his care, were from Christian Brothers
schools. Over nine years at my husband's school,
having contact with other class-mates, my husband told me
this was totally believable. Perhaps times have now
changed.

//what you are talking about is criticism (or worse) of the divisions of humanity based on geographical, language, customs, physiognomy and particularly skin pigmentation.//

You do know physiognomy is a pseudo-science, right? You cannot reliably judge a man's character or intellect by his gait, facial features, cranial bumps, skin pigmentation, or whatever... it's crap and it always has been.

//The golden rule is if seemingly disparate groups can mate and breed fertile offspring then they are of the same race.//

When I studied biology at uni (only one semester - not my cup of tea) about 10 years ago, that was the definition of a species. There was no taxonomic class for 'race'. It went Kindly Pay Cash Or Furnish Good Security: Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species.

Contemporary biologists don't view 'race' as a thing, and nor do most other people. But some people still have quaint 19th century views about the inferiority of people with certain physical characteristics. What can you do? Some people still believe in homeopathy. Idiots will idiot.

Life should be simple,
Life should be fun,
It should be lived but not on the run,
It shouldn't hurt,
It shouldn't squirt,
Consider moving into a yurt.

Have you felt like a Yurt?
In Long Bag jail :
“You have the Aboriginals in one, then in the next yard the Lebanese, then next one caucasian Aussies and Asians, and next one caucasian Aussies and Islanders.
“They split the Aussies up because they couldn’t get on even with each other.
“But now you’ve got gangs, the motorcycle gangs, the ethnic groups like the Lebanese and islanders and the Asians. They’re all groups and they all stick together. And they’re very hard to confront if they’re in a gang.”
-
Bandidos : Vietnam War veterans , Caucasian.
Hells Angels: white racist ,
Gypsy Joker: US Norway Germany ( bikie gangs started with Hitler Youth in black leathers on bikes and guns)
Comanchero : Serbian Chinese Turk Penguins Yaks Yanks and Yurts.

I dunno about Yurts, but here's a joke I learnt from my dad:

Be Alert! Your country needs more lerts!
