Mt O, blow me down with a feather, yes more than average chance they are Christian. Funny about the confusion, I had a Jordanian friend who children attended Catholic school with my kids. I simply assumed they were Catholics, met him one time, asked where he was going, he said to the mosque. Wow blow me down they were Muslim, good education at Catholic school and all that.

Many Egyptians in Australia are Coptic Christians, dress the same as Egyptian Muslims. Confusion.

Paul,

I wonder if half-wits like Misopinionated assume that all Africans are Muslim ? [Just as they assume that everybody who looks 'East Asian' is Chinese ?]

I would have thought that very few South Sudanese would be Muslim; that was one of the reasons for the dreadful civil war to break away from Muslim 'Arabic' Sudan. An African from Tanzania or Ghana or South Africa is more likely to be Muslim than a bloke from South Sudan.

But everybody, even kids like Misopionated, have the right to be a dumb-arse bigot.

Joe,

Your promotion of Mr. Opinion to half-wit puts him well above his ability level.

Ttbn,

Well, kindness is in my very nature :)

Cheers,

Loudmouth,

How many degrees have you awarded yourself this week?

You should join Hasbeen for a trip down memory lane once in a while. Not only has he been a jet fighter pilot, the only ever recipient of a BSc(Eng) from Sydney Uni, a Souths Seas solo yachtsman and explorer in Melanesia, and an intellectual Plastics Engineer, but now he's telling us he was a Formula 1 racing car driver.

Hasbeen seems to have as many past experiences as you seem to have degrees.

loudmouth: "1. There will be far more British in Australia than China-born Chinese for many decades yet; add in the Kiwis and it could be centuries."

That's simply not true according to projections published in The Australian:

"The Chinese-born population of Australia grew by half to 650,000 in the five years to last year (more than eight times faster than the overall population), and by 2023 is on track to exceed the English-born. The Indian-born population grew even faster to 590,000, overtaking the number of New Zealanders, traditionally the second biggest stock of ­foreign-born residents after the Brits."
