Useless jobs still being recruited for in the civil service

you do not judge

you yourself decide if it's right or wrong for you

Huh? You're endorsing anarchy?

So if I go out and murder a gay, I can say that you have to respect my action because I've decided it's right for me?

George Michael has written a new song for his skinhead cellmate. It's called Hairless Fister.

talking of george michael....was he solely responsible for nurturing benefit scrounger culture back in the 80s. have you read the lyrics to wham! rap?

"Wham! Rap"

Hey everybody take a look at me,
I've got street credibility,
I may not have a job,
But I have a good time,
With the boys that I meet "down on the line"

I DON'T NEED YOU
So you don't approve,
Well, who asked you to?
HEY, JERK YOU WORK
This guy's got better things to do
HELL
I ain't never gonna work, get down in the dirt
I choose, to cruise
Gonna live my life, sharp as a knife
I've found my groove and I just can't lose
I'm style from head to toe
Cool cat flash gonna let you know
I'm a soul boy - I'm a dole boy -
Take pleasure in leisure, I believe in joy!

[CHORUS:]
WHAM!
BAM!
I AM!
A MAN!
JOB OR NO JOB
YOU CAN'T TELL ME THAT I'M NOT
DO!
YOU!
ENJOY WHAT YOU DO?
IF NOT
JUST STOP!
DON'T STAY THERE AND ROT!

Party nights, and neon lights
We hit the floors, we hit the heights
Dancing shoes, and pretty girls
Boys in leather kiss girls in pearls!
Hot - damn! Everybody, let's play!
So they promised you a good job - NO WAY!
One, two, three, rap!
C'mon everybody, DON'T NEED THIS CRAP!

[CHORUS]

IF YOU'RE A PUB MAN
OR A CLUB MAN
MAYBE A JET BLACK GUY WITH A HIP HI-FI
A WHITE COOL CAT WITH A TRILBY HAT
MAYBE LEATHER AND STUDS IS WHERE YOU'RE AT
MAKE THE MOST OF EVERY DAY
DON'T LET HARD TIMES STAND IN YOUR WAY
GIVE A WHAM GIVE A BAM BUT DON'T GIVE A DAMN
'COS THE BENEFIT GANG ARE GONNA PAY!

Now reach up high and touch your soul
The boys from Wham! will help you reach that goal
It's gonna break your mama's heart (so sad)
It's gonna break your daddy's heart (too bad)
Just throw the dice and take my advice
'Cos I know that you're smart
Can you dig this thing? (YEAH!)
Are you gonna get down? (YEAH!)
Say Wham! WHAM!
Say Bam! BAM!

[CHORUS x3]

Do you wanna work
Are you gonna have fun
Do you wanna be a jerk
Are you gonna stay young

Everybody say WHAM!
Say BAM!
Everybody say WHAM!
Say WHAM! BAM!

It was a serious question. You're suggesting that there is no such thing as morality, only personal morality.

You could be right. I don't know.

But if you are, then the logical consequence is that everyone can be free to do whatever they want with no possible judgement or consequences, because if there is judgement, from whence does it come?

And if they CANT do what they want based on their personal morality, why can't they? What rules govern them, and from what morality do those rules come?

If an Iranian is hanging a homosexual, which one should you support?

you'd support the homosexual since there are homosexuals in iran. respecting someone's 'race' is not the same as respecting someone's culture. i don't think we should always respect someone's culture. assuming that someone necessarily has a cultural belief is in fact a form of prejudice.

a similar dilemma came about with church groups in charge of adoptions who have refused to agree to comply with the law which states gay couples should have equal rights to adopt. i'm not sure where it currently stands. i think the church groups got away with it. anyway lots of money for the lawyers again.:D

no i don't make the laws.

i make personal decisions on how i see things and interpret them.

the law in each country is the law and it's up to you how you follow those laws. if your actions break the law, it's the way it goes. most people realise when they could break the law and don't do so.

you can even contest the law. people don't like people contesting laws but that's how society has developed in the UK - rightly or wrongly, i really don't know.

Maybe you need to be more specific. As you will include !!!!!philes and rapists in that description.

:rotfl:

"Rapist" is now a sexual orientation? It's political correctness gone mad!!

Probably won't get that many replies on a dating site though.
