There's talk of alcohol being banned in another country, and we have Australians here triggered to the point of hysteria.

A little disturbing, to say the least.

the idea of choo choo having to go without his beer is to much for him to handle .. it's all he has to look forward to in his life Cheesy


You've got me pegged Mimo. Religious fundies in Indonesia are trying to impose their will and the only reason I could be opposed to the idea is that I might miss out on a beer, here in Australia.

Your support for govt decrees banning shyte will be eagerly looked forward to the next time the burka banning thing is played out. Gregg's too.


How does John feel about banning the burqa?

And Pecca?

It's a bit silly really.

I've never heard of a burqa causing heart, liver, or kidney disease.

Why would anyone want to ban a harmless piece of clothing?

I've never seen anything like this:

"Wearing burqas too much can harm your health.

"Excessive burqa wearing led to approximately 95,000 deaths and 2.8 million years of potential life lost (YPLL) each year in the United States from 2011 – 2015, shortening the lives of those who died by an average of 29 years.

"Further, excessive burqa wearing was responsible for 1 in 10 deaths among working-age adults aged 20-64 years.

"The economic costs of excessive burqa wearing in 2010 were estimated at $249 billion, or $2.05 a drink."

Have you?

I'm curious.

Oppose.

Alcohol kills.

Dresses don't.

If I ever see official health department warnings like this, I might change my mind:

"There is no safe time to wear a burqa during pregnancy.

"Burqas can cause problems for the developing baby throughout pregnancy, including before a woman knows she is pregnant.

"Wearing burqas in the first three months of pregnancy can cause the baby to have abnormal facial features.

"Growth and central nervous system problems (e.g., low birthweight, behavioral problems) can occur from wearing burqas anytime during pregnancy.

"The baby’s brain is developing throughout pregnancy and can be affected by exposure to dark clothing at any time."

Wouldn't bother me in the slightest.

Sounds like a good idea, actually.

Are you pushing for one here in Australia?

Have you considered converting to Islam?

I'm not calling for a ban on anything, FD.

I'm just answering your questions.

So, are you pushing for a ban on junk food?

How would you determine what "junk food" actually is?

Alcohol is alcohol - there's no ambiguity there.

But your plan to ban junk food would be quite confusing without setting guidelines.

What's junk to you might not be junk to me.

See what I mean?

Maybe you'll need to work on your food ban a little longer   Undecided

I'm not pushing for a ban on junk food, nor am I claiming that you are. I'm just asking what else you would like to see banned.

Also, have you considered converting to Islam?

I'm not asking to see anything banned.

And no, I wouldn't convert to any religion - I'll remain an atheist until the day I die.

What religion are you, FD?

I'm curious.

Grin Is that why so many women(who have the guts)in hard line Islamist countries call for the cessation of forced wearing of these oppressive garments?

I suppose chastity belts are harmless so OK as well?

Peccary taking a belting this week by us.  Grin Grin

Anyway, the 'Fashion' or 'Spirituality' of the Burqa is designed for 'Desert Living'. It is a very superior form of attire to be worn in the Deserts. Only expensive Western wear can beat it.

I guess some things of Islam will move forward into the future, while others will fade into the past.
