They say there is going to be a pool and a gym in there, right? Surely, that comes under construction and not religion. Maybe they wanna start changing their construction, using US supplies, or sumfing. Im confused there is too much talk on this. Is the Shariah Law a Government? Seems funny to me as an Australian that you would allow a government within a government(but then again-Oz- maybe not)

Well if my area is an indication- they will build rojin homes on the bus routes. There is also a lot of hospital-taxi services for health care. With online now being able to deliver, and there was always co-op. Maybe a computor is all that would be needed. Maybe you are suggesting that spending your days in your home, even with all the necessities is boring? I feel differently. Maybe making home, more homely is all that is needed too. But I didnt think the question was vague, I took both meanings. I think there should be no under-age limit either-Im sick of parents not taking responsibility! Suggesting 5 is silly. No parent in their right mind would allow it ( a tractor with Dad is different tho).

I wouldnt say massive swings to the greens. You gotta appreciate the dryness. But I would say the laborers have made their voice heard too-no family ties down under yk.

Yeah, and you could say the UK and the US have come to heads down there in Van Diemans Land. So hope they suck it up and keep Australia Australia rather than make judgement on ideologies and economies Above them.

is that right? they have 2 very tight opinions, and who is looking forward to the independants, and especially those of US influence, there?? that Kennedy relo wouldnt happen to be using Australians who are used to the tough conditions in his area for fights in other hot places would he?? If Gillard gets in, her choosing troops in Afghanastan is one thing. If Abbot chooses troops in Afghanastan it is totally another. Annnnd if he wanted to play ball, hope his family is ready for the ordeal.

See, mist too pointing towards Japan. Japan couldnt care less about the mosque, is one way it is seen, trade and barter as usual. Quibbling over God? Whats that?

Im sure y'all know a hell of a lot more than me, but, while I can understand the thinking towards the term Victory Mosque. Isnt there another way of thinking about it, to answer the question why there? Maybe its admittance that they were connected? And taking it to there, is because it will take the talk there, rather than an ocean away?

There is traditional marriage today, and there is dreams of traditional marriage in a lot of kids. While the gay community has highlighted the importance of marriage, there is very few males or females that can understand that. Is not the difference between male and female obvious? Nobody answers that question either. I cant understand why male and female homosexuals are on the same page either? Im willing to understand, but only if traditional, or more the meaning of marriage, is accepted too.

I dont understand the hatred either. I dont think its related to religion, for me, or is inclusive. In a sense the naming of it doesnt matter-yk its a good thing to take marriage seriously. But if you called a doctor a whack-as is sometimes referred to where I come from-it would seem wrong to the patient. Civil partnership, huh. Isnt there something that can be derived from all those older languages, or even a different language, that can sound.....prettier? Or is Arnie, just talking about a wedding?

yes, because that then reads to me that male is the head, and joining with a woman makes marriage. I dont find it so hard to identify a difference between male and female, I guess, and therefore take offence. Cant you think of another word for heavens sake? And Mist Wizard watch who youre calling conservative! Dont you think male and female are different?

I expect the writings suggest how given a certain upbringing one is given the chances for understanding oneself? But your suggestion that 3 religions alone speak out about homosexuality would only counter the controlled state of affairs of other religions?- I believe in my experience. Why would parents, and I believe that usually consists of a married couple, endeavour into such upbringing? Not speaking out about it is a Buddhist-type of character, imo. Keep your secrets, but as a parent turning a blind eye seems more cold to me. How big a part is marriage in a persons life? And how equal are genders?

While whatever or whoever's words lead you on, is personal, reading this all, it had me wondering about whether this isnt an issue about taking words into the church? Having said that, can I get a degree for reading here!

I thought the civil unions cover economical fairness? If people would take marriage seriously, then surely this move would be provocative?

Education about discipline versus punishment, a good one too.

I think there needs to be a broader discussion about various ages of what child is. While I agree with Disillusioned, the terms for child abuse are also broad. For eg. a child that you might allow to walk down the street counters the term segregation. But for a different aged child, it could be neglect. Children have various stages of growth, and by clumping it all together, and creating generalizations will only influence more abuse,imo.

While Im interested in seeing a better image of women, I think there is a lot of educational TV programs; change the channel. Lifestyle is the culprit of child abuse.
