We are on a continual learning curve.

You will never convince me though that Sharia law should be allowed in this country.

The more I think out it Sharia law is used in other countries to persecute people. Many things done under Sharia law probably breach human rights.

Blinkers take them off seems to be the message here but so many of us seem to be afraid of speaking out. Why should Sharia Law be adopted in this country? No need for it IMO but am open to education from folk who know better!!

You're right, there isn't any need for it, but it shouldn't be simply because it is the law of countries that many people seem to think only breed terrorists.

We should be saying no to it simply because our own law is effective enough, which in my eyes it is.

Just because Neanderthal man and homo sapiens co-existed for a time doesn’t mean that one didn’t evolve from the other.

Although what evolution has got to do with Sharia Law is beyond me.

You only needed this post on this subject blazey, instead of all the woffle you've posted before, your right our laws are enough, which is the point many of us have been trying to make. I do not have a problem people coming to live in this country, but when here abide by our laws and don't try to change our way of doing things

Not everyone realises everything straight away.

Maybe this debate has changed her mind on the subject.

But what you are talking about are the fruits of scientific enquiry, built on an incomplete, rather than a flawed theory .... I don't think that anyone believes that what Darwin concluded was the alpha to omega of how life developed and adapted ... it is those who disagree with the theory (the one's who prosecuted Scopes in '28, at the infamous "monkey trial") who come to the simplistic conclusions. The beauty of scientific enquiry is that it never stops discovering the new, and refining, sometimes discarding, that which has already been found. To dismiss the scientific basis for evolution is an ideological rather than a scientific descision.

One day you will discover that there is and that we are created in his image.

Sorry Willow, love you to bits and respect your belief in your religion, but this one always bemuses me. Can't possible be in his image, as wouldn't need lungs, heart to pump the blood around and the most important bit .. the p*n*s, etc. Would love this one explained to me .... :confused:

Even if there is a higher power (which I will never be ignorant enough to rule out), it most certainly isn't the cartoon-like Abrahamic God of Christianity and Islam. It should ring alarm bells for believers when more and more sections of scripture are being tossed out as utter guff as we learn more about our world.

Isn’t it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too? And worship a make believe gardener?

It all makes perfect sense if you think of "Man" as a group of sophisticated androids and "God" as the superior beings who created them. Erich von Daniken had some odd ideas, perhaps, but..........I've often wondered. ;)

Eeew West Ender, that was above my peabrain, will have to look him up .. :eek:

Irony here is that, Willow does not accept Evolution, however, for a God to be in our image (or vica versa), he's only like that because of climate, local foods, gases we breathe, etc. So must live amongst us somewhere.

We see evolution all the time, e.g. average size of shoe in a woman 40 years ago was size 5, beds in the middle ages were much shorter, back problems will disappear as the years roll by as we get more used to walking upwards.

Every creature on Earth is different due to the environment they live in.
