The pope is one of the greediest people on earth yet people(followers) hang off his every word. who has a fish tank for a car anyway. Pope calls for Equality : Pope says no, females cannot be popes. - Hexx Wed, 10 Feb 2010 23:18:17 +0100 http://blogocrats.com/index.php/top-menu-sections/human-rights/502-pope-calls-for-equality#comment-9539 Plus Evan dogs can have a litter every year which makes them especially good ;) - Min Wed, 10 Feb 2010 21:36:52 +0100 http://blogocrats.com/index.php/top-menu-sections/human-rights/502-pope-calls-for-equality#comment-9538 Gotta love that natural law. "The natural instinct of man to procreate is evidence of his essential goodness...." How about: "the natural instinct of dogs to procreate is evidence of their essential goodness. It makes about as much sense. - Evan Wed, 10 Feb 2010 21:25:48 +0100 http://blogocrats.com/index.php/top-menu-sections/human-rights/502-pope-calls-for-equality#comment-9513 The problem seems to be that religious organisation are able to obtain exemptions from Anti-Discrimination legislation..no doubt to keep the churches happy, however this had a flow-on effect to effecting teachers employed in church schools. I personally believe in the USA system of separation of church and state which is NOT in our Constitution. If a church wants public $s then they should have the follow the same rules as all other organisations. - Min Wed, 10 Feb 2010 01:17:32 +0100 http://blogocrats.com/index.php/top-menu-sections/human-rights/502-pope-calls-for-equality#comment-9511 Min, what a load of poo eh? And pollies refer to this as the "fair-go country". Fancy a school being allowed to kick out a teacher because she has a baby w/out being married. Now this is one case where the plasma TV will barely make up for the discrimination.

Here is one example: http://www.theage.com.au/national/teacher-scorned-for-chosen-lifestyle-20091003-ghbl.html [quote]This is an example of the largely unseen discrimination that will be allowed to continue under last week's decision by Attorney-General Rob Hulls to grant religious organisations the right to continue to reject employees on the grounds of sex, sexuality, marital and parental status and gender identity.[/quote] - Min Wed, 10 Feb 2010 00:54:47 +0100 http://blogocrats.com/index.php/top-menu-sections/human-rights/502-pope-calls-for-equality#comment-9509 Quiet on here...did someone open a can of fifty year old pilchards?

The religious bullyboys put on their doc martens and head kick or call the golf club and tell them to reject the Labor cabinet members...call in favours and ask the media empires to do a bit of stomping by way of searches into donations, use of expenses etc. I still reckon it's a useful bill...but will be gutted full-bore after the NANNY STATE & BIG BROTHER & so called Libertarian scare-mongers have their way. Probably just an election ploy anyway. Hope not.

They've hogged enuff history, politics, moolah and media space. I'm tired of politicians who produce FAITH gas everytime they open their gobs...and Popes who SPIN SPIN SPIN & do CONTORTIONIST ACTS but usually end up on the same SQUARE...to compete for attention and try to be the HOOK INTO THE CHURCH for a Human race that should, sometimes does, know better. Put 'em in a museum. N' - nasking Tue, 09 Feb 2010 23:18:21 +0100
