Retlaw...for someone who doesn't do all those things(parts of speech)...you write more legibly and readably than the guy from over the borders.
I rarely have any bother deciphering what your post is...

Re: Religious Imposition.

I got 8 right in that one Eric. I have a brain that hangs onto stuff I have come across(even in such unlikely places as crossword clues).
The other quiz wouldn't load for me for some reason.

Re: Religious Imposition.

Would any of those ten reasons not apply to the Welsh, the Scottish and the Irish?
If they do......and in my opinion they most certainly do...then it is tripe....and just another publication that...

Neil, I am sure he could...and he doesn't need any help from you :D:D

For the record I do not follow any organised religion, but was brought up in a household where father was a methodist, and...

Re: Religious Imposition.

Right Rob......getting rid of religion.....religion is the basis of morality, ethics and law.
You are right when you say that it is beyond you to get rid of religion.
And if you get rid of religion...

Re: Religious Imposition.

It is seen today as something which is akin to racism......and as such, people button it rather than speak out.

I have absolutely no problem with shop workers getting a day off from the daily...

Re: Religious Imposition.

There may have been pokes and prods at the religions.....but not perhaps at the person who professes that religion.
The PC brigade seems to largely have put paid to that.

Oh, yes I do Cashy....and I like you for it.
What ever anyone says about you.....they cannot say you are not consistent.
Oh.....by the way I am none of those religions.

Re: Religious Imposition.

Accyman...Maybe that is why people do not profess their faith.....fear of ridicule.
If I said I was Muslim, or Jewish, Hindu or Buddhist, there would be no remark made.
It is about respect for...

Re: Religious Imposition.

It is only religious because the closure happens on Easter Day, and the legislation relates to a religious holiday(as opposed to a bank holiday).....so it is a bit of both.
Religion and a bit of...

Re: Religious Imposition.

Maybe people are embarrassed to profess any kind of faith these days. Muslims and Jews do not hold back in professing faith....But it is somehow seen as a bit 'naff'(for want of a better word) to...

Yes....Accyman that is so...but in the beginning holidays only came about because of religion of one sort or another.

I understand that. What Cashy was saying, was that it should be all or nothing......my comment that Muslim shopkeepers would not wish to be seen observing a Christian festival was a response to that...

Re: Religious Imposition.

Two days a year when the shops close. You may not have a religion, but others who work in the shops may have...
