good mulitculture or the thin end of the wedge??

Australia is not a Muslim country but is multicultural


sharia law units

That is a step too far - Sharia law should be banned by all civilised countries and confined to the Middle Ages East

I'm on your side when you post stuff I agree with..................

seriously though folks I have no problem with sharia law studies; buddhist tome studies; hindu studies; atheist studies but it has been suggested if you read more that they also want to test the legal system in terms of allowing it to be practiced. However have said that I remember way back the good old catholics were pilloried and banned from practicing their own religion once in UK

You can blame Henry VIII for that one. For reasons of not being able to get a divorce from some of his wives he closed down Catholicism in Britain. I think he must have fallen out with the Pope. 

and of course this issued in the concept of a secular government but a royal head of the church who bow and courtesy to each other and some say the best system in the world apart from the yanks that is!

On the point of Religion, I have noticed on all of my travels that a nice bloke called Gideon has always left me a book to read, no matter what Hotel I was staying in. Now I reckon this Gideon Chappy must have been an Irish fella because when you open the book it always starts with "It began at the beginning'. 

depends which version Gideon is using mine says " In the beginning God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wonder what he saw??
