Yes, it actually would have. If someone can't present any convince evidence for something, why would anyone else buy it? We start reasonably believing things when we see convincing evidence. So if we had no evidence of Pluto, it would be perfectly reasonable not to believe there is a Pluto. Do...
I'm not repeating myself for you.
Ditto, except your arguments just amount to IDW anti-woke platitudes.
Yet you can't cite any examples.
That wasn't an insult. You seem genuinely to not understand what I'm explaining to you.
I haven't insulted you, though. This debate has been civil on...
This is going to shock you, but law has evolved since the 9th century. So yes, law was surely more theocratic back in the middle ages but broadly speaking it isn't any longer. We still base part of modern law in Western countries on common law but things have changed. The modern government of...
Sir, where does this say common law is "theistic?" And what does that have do with the price of eggs, for the third time? New Zealand is a secular country. Do you know what secular means?
As with the danger of vaccination, you do not know what you're talking about in this thread...
Perhaps I'm not technically savvy enough. Given your conspiratorial web of ideas on this topic, it's more likely that the data just isn't there or doesn't show what you think it does.
It's not hard to post a link to the site where you can download the information from.
So you trust to NZ Health Ministry to provide accurate data. But then when they summarize that data for you, that's somehow not trustworthy. Got it.
No, it isn't. And even if it were, what does that have to...
Link?
Also, didn't you just say you don't trust the NZ Ministry of Health? :facepalm:
New Zealand is secular. Besides, what does Anglicanism have to do with health data?
And that is the beginning of your troubles.

It's on you to defend your own ideas. I'm not doing the work for you. What fundamental ideas in Islam are relevant to immigration policy?
Then where is your criticism of Christian or Jewish immigration?
I haven't put any words in your mouth. You seem unable to grasp a very basic concept. It...
I already explained this to you. Go back.
That makes no sense. Think for two seconds.
Meanwhile, what core tenets of Islam are you talking about?
This isn't my, or your, first rodeo. Your criticism of Islam is outsized. Your desire to discriminate against them is unique.
I didn't say we...
I have. Have you read the Bible?
If you're gonna judge billions of people as a monolith based on some things their holy book says, be consistent about it.
I didn't. You're welcome to start a thread about how we should restrict Christian and Jewish immigration any time. Go on.
Like the Five...
All you need to do is post it here and cite your source so we can all see it. It doesn't need to be a secret. Show us.
What are you talking about? Why would the New Zealand Ministry of Health not be a reliable source for data on New Zealand's health initiatives? What does religion have to do...
Again, you're trying to fit the square peg of whatever "anti-woke" silliness you read on the internet into the round hole of what I'm actually saying. Please stop. It's not helpful.
All I'm asking you to do is consider for a moment that your understanding of Islam seems informed by things...
Oh geez Louise. :rolleyes:
Thankfully, millions of Muslims have immigrated to the West despite such things. Almost like their religion and Western law are compatible...hmmm...
I didn't misquote you, and it was an example of something I'm sure you don't do. How you have peeked into the homes...
But it doesn't seem like overreach to the EU. Who have long had a say in immigration matters for member states.
Candidates should be judged individually based on the merits of the case or whether they qualify on rational criteria, not "what religion/race/gender are you?"
What better way than...
It's part of a long-standing type of rhetoric that paints gay people as dangerous to public health. It's the same mentality that produces "grooming" comments.
