State-Church Separation

Don't get me wrong Nexerus, I agree people should not get bonus just for being a ethnic minority but the thing is in America and Australia (Heck the rest of the world) this is not so.

I would argue more but I have to go. I will continue ue this tommorow

State-Church Separation

That may be your opinion, I however Believe that equality means that everyone is treated equally, hence that is why i am a communist.

State-Church Separation

Ahh welcome Nexerus! I expect us to have colliding opinions once again!

The Nexerus said
It's a documentary that's relatively infamous for its left-wing bias and general anti-American brand of negativity. It gives a lot of just plain old misleading and/or false information, too.

I'm fairly cautious when you say Left wing bias and Anti America. Example of this heresy?

The Nexerus said
Why does it matter if the minority is offended? The entire basis of democracy is majority rule. The rights of a citizen do not end where the feelings of another citizen begin.

It matters because that's not equal? I thought America promoted equality for everyone no matter how minor they are?

Ah, well, maybe I am slightly exaggerating. I'm talking about a lot of cleavage. . . people being models out in the malls, that sort of thing.

Look, I have a lot of friends from many different faiths (not surprising as I'm in Australia) and some of them are fundamentalists, and they don't find Cleavage offensive.

Anyway what kind of shopping center has a model in it!?

Anything can be offensive. I found the decision of the school to show the idiotic "Story of Stuff" or as I like to call it, "Economics for dummies by an even bigger dummy" very offensive, and we did not even get to vote on that!

I've never heard of that video. And if it's "educational" should we not show it?

State-Church Separation

Kind of hard when it's In a Public place. You know where you pass it every day? Look I'm in Australia so it's probably different but I don't see naked people walking down the street.

State-Church Separation

Example of this supposedly offensive material? And anyhow chances are that religion will be more offensive to people, especially since religion is a dominant factor in most peoples lives.

State-Church Separation

Just because it doesn't bother you, doesn't mean other minority's don't like it. The problem with voting is that the majority wins and the minority will still be offended. Better to just remove all relgious monuments no matter what relgion it belongs too.

State-Church Separation

Tangible harm? No. But minority's may find it offensive that they only permit Christian monuments to be on Public areas, after all it is a public area not a Christian only area
