“More ham, Ed?”
“No thanks, I’m Jewish”

(actually I’m not really I’m a humanist atheist – don’t get me started on that kids’ cartoon programme the Thornberries where the monkey is called Darwin!!)

asian muslims killed over 30 women in britain last year in the name of honour.

That is a terrible thing and something that obviously needs to be stopped, but how many women were killed here by angry / jealous /drunk / drugged husbands / boyfriends /ex’s / obsessed stalkers / random attackers that were not muslims?

It doesn’t take much imagination to envisage an alternative and less far-fetched plan for world domination that would be much more malevolent towards the west.

The green bandwagon is based on the semi-myth of globbal warming that is being promoted with religious zeal by non-scientists around the world.

What we have is a scenario where there have slightly rising global temperatures for a few decades and a scientific model that shows how human activity (CO2 production) might tend towards a heating effect.…[Read more]

I also found an amazing video of UFOs in Haiti – incredible, until I looked at the responses and read that it was all computer generated and all the palm trees were identical!!! But they look real.

Makes me think the Lima one is a hoax too, with the newsman and the spectators in on the game too!

High flying aircraft with bright lights shining downwards? Why? Haven’t a clue!

Or…… lighting effects created by interference patterns where 2 beams intersect – looks like objects but no mass, just blobs of light???

Wow! People seem to be more wound up about any attempts to stop bad driving than they were about the original topic.

I am left-wing, atheist republican anti-monarchy pro EU pinko but I speak as I see on the subject of radical islam. It is, in my mind, a ‘hostile foreign power’ and I wish more lefties would realise that, rather than banging on about Bush all the time!

You’ll always be able to find cases of police officers, teachers, judges etc. who indulge in stupid actions.

Over 3000 people die on our roads each year so it is self-evident that enforcing speed limits and prosecuting the criminal motorists who drive badly IS an important priority for the police. When I am walking, cycling or driving my car I…[Read more]

I saw the leader of the Muslim Council of Britain speaking on TV. I can’t vouch for all the things he’s quoted as saying in the above post, but he did make the comparison to Nazi Germany in the 1930’s.

But this begs the question – where should we be looking for this comparison to Nazism?
I’d say that the greatest parallel to Nazism in Britain…[Read more]

they are left aside without public funding whilst asylum seekers and illegals get fully furnished houses and jobs in government positions.

Try telling that to the ones in the assylum seekers’ detention centres!

coppers are too busy chasing car owners and council tax dodgers to bother with catching real criminals

Er…. Speeding motorists and…[Read more]

What I really need to know is whether Father Christmas is really the Tooth Fairy.

Religion is the world’s oldest mental illness.

What I observed among christian evangelists in the past and I’m sureIt’s the same with these radical muslim preachers, is that there is a certain sence of power derived from being in a position to MAKE people believe…[Read more]

I don’t think it’s at all immoral to be gay or to indulge in gay sex. Not being gay myself, I find the idea of sex with another man as unappealing as I find eating cabbage. But, like the cabbage-eating analogy, it is not wrong or immoral, just something I wouldn’t want to do.

So it’s not without good reason that mechanics sometimes refer to a hammer as an ‘American screwdriver’!

It sounds like they don’t need to develop a muslim car as such, but just an islamic version of each of their models. This sounds like a clever marketing move because then they can develop christian versions too, with a St. Christopher to pray to before you drive like hell!

Isn’t it islam that forbids men to make anything perfect because only God…[Read more]

Mine has to be the wheel hub. Without a hub of some sort to locate a wheel and its bearing onto an axle or stub-axle, wheels would be totally useless!

NOOOOO! X Factor – I hate it. Mainly because of the panel – they are all annoying people.

As for the acts, the best bit is in the early stages when they show really bad acts.
As for the real talent, being a ‘straight’ male, I think some of the girls are OK if they are pretty AND they can sing AND they have stage presence. As for the guys, they…[Read more]

Among my ancestors are Irish protestants and catholics. My great grandmother came from Enniskillen. We recently had a holiday in Galway and I had hoped to visit Enniskillen but time and distance meant I didn’t get there this time.

I think that all the people of these islands (British Isles or whatever the alternative term used by Irish people…[Read more]

In the TV coverage of this looming tragedy that is building in Pakistan, the world’s most powerful muslim country, one thing I noticed is how most women appear to be either in Western clothes or Indian type saris. Lots are not wearing headscarves and those who do go for the sort worn by our grandmothers to protect their hair-dos rather than…[Read more]

I was put in mind of a tragic accident a year or so ago when a National Express coach overturned on a slip road and several passengers were killed. Witnesses had said that the coach was being driven dangerously prior to the accident and the driver was subsequently convicted of causing death by dangerous driving.

Were there calls for the…[Read more]
