Why?

[ScottBen]

Why is it that non white British citizens are treated with kid gloves, given preferential treatment and have everyone around them walking on eggshells?
Is it because the politically correct liberal madness prevalent throughout government still defines them as a victimised oppressed minority that's under the thumb of the right wing bigoted white fascist?
It's ridiculous. It would be funny if there wasn't an element of truth in it.
I refer of course to sp1814's racist thread in news. It's only racist and bigoted if you're white or British.

can i just point out from a non white british citizen point of view that i'm not

"treated with kid gloves, given preferential treatment and have everyone around them walking on eggshells? "

Elderman - “... Birdie: You can’t see what is under your noses!! Can you?”

The last time I looked in the mirror, I had only one nose.


“... The object of the illustration is to show what man has done to God’s creation...”.

Really? Gosh! You do surprise me. Not.
The illustration that you have copied and pasted (yet again) is actually an argument against the existence of god but you're too blinkered to see it for what it is. What the illustration actually demonstrates is that god is simply not there. The idea that the 'house' is the earth and therefore represents god creating order out of chaos is childishly simplistic. Order comes from chaos all the time with no help from god.


“... God is soon going to evict those that have ruined his earth and restore the earth to its original purpose...”

The old 'the end is nigh' story eh? People have been proclaiming this since the dawn of time. Not one of them has been correct and therefore there is no reason whatsoever (other than blind faith) to believe that you are right. Dream on.


“... well do not conclude that during thousands of years God’s role has been merely a passive one, that he has simply been tolerating the wickedness that has developed but taking no action himself. As you shall see, the facts show just the opposite...”

So has god left his creation to rack and ruin or not? Now you're telling us that god is actively intervening in man's affairs. How can this be reconciled with your earlier claim that god has left the 'house' to fall into disrepair?

Please can you give me a specific example of god's intervention? Note the word 'specific'.

Your thread seems to have been hijacked by Elderman and his proselytising. By engaging him in debate, I realise that I too have hijacked your thread by association.

I apologise.

[wildwood]

Naomi, yes, as jomifl said. On second thought my contribution earlier was not meant to be derogatory but it does read as such. Sorry. This is the price of I have to pay for getting on in life, not thinking my reply out properly... especially when someone writes such frustrating tripe. As a punishment I shall only have two chocolate bars tonight, instead of three:-)

[naomi24]

Wildwood. Thanks. Hope you enjoyed the chocolate. :o)

one example of the op: the couple on bbc news yesterday wanting to adopt children but turned down because they are white. why does anyone 'need' a quota for anything? that is positive discrimination in my book and is rife in a lot of aspects of public service these days. when i worked for the local council, there were lots of really good jobs (with uni training and guaranteed posts after) which were only offered to ethnic minorities. i'd have chopped limbs off for some of them, but i wasn't allowed to apply.

[birdie1971]

Come on Elderman! I'm still waiting for the specific example of god intervening in man's affairs because he is displeased with the way his 'house' is being treated.

[Tommy360]

To be honest, there are some racist people in this country.I have mighty respect for black people, and i think its wrong.

Elderman

a) you know very well that this site disapproves of members hijacking threads for their own ends and changing the topic completely - this is about politics and culture, not religion.
b) I'm tempted to say "get a life" - I can't be the only person (with my own or without my own religious convictions) who is fed up to the back teeth with your constant preaching.

[venator]

I think we should report Elderman whenever he posts this sort of stuff, completely irrelevant to the original topic

[Tim800]

I think it's bizarre scottBen was suspended for stating the obvious. Racism and Bigotry only exists in this Liberal democrat career politician ruined nation if you're not white.
