In the age a Political Correctness things get a bit stupid!

From The New of the World (Sunday 22nd Dec 2007)

' The Womens Institute axed prayers at a Christmas Carol Servie at St Pauls Church, Leicester, amid fears they may offend non-Christians'

Is it only me that thinks ' If you're offended by Christianity, why the **** are you in church listening to Carols ?'

Because somehow I have to get back at the pricks that force me to listen to carols in stores from Oct-Jan every year.

Oh and...

It's in the "Screws of the World" so it must be true[ :oyvey:]

Oh FFS. I get pissed off every year that tabloid trash papers like that twist stories into xenophobic rants, and morans like you regurgitate them.

A Headteacher wrote to parents suggesting that they might like their child to bring one Christmas Card for their class if money's tight. Nice sensitive move you might say. Tabloid Headline: "Teacher Bans Christmas Cards"

The last School Nativity Play I attended that the Noblet was in, there were Jewish, Hindu & Muslim kids taking part. The local Imam & Rabbi came to the Carol Concert. Not newsworthy, but the norm.

FUck Off you gullible cUnt.

Breaking news: not all women women's institute members agree!

http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/news/article-23429163-details/Women's+Institute+members+told:+'Don't+say+prayers+at+carol+concerts+-+it+will+offend+non-Christians'/article.do

Quote:
Margaret Gamble, secretary of Groby WI in Leicestershire, said she had also received complaints from members.

She said: "She shouldn't make the column personal. We don't impose our opinions on anybody else, and a lot of members thought she should have just stuck to WI matters."

June Whiting, president of nearby Ullesthorpe WI, added: "The column was raised at our last meeting and there were several complaints. We had a carol concert earlier in the month and we had our new priest in charge and said some prayers. It was what everyone wanted."


WOW this is all so interesting I could just ****** all over the women's institute's face

Don't forget polo players, junior army officers, journalists, hoteliers. . . apparently everyone but me.

She was a shallow, insipid cow, but yeah, I would've.

More accurately it was probably cancelled due to lack of interest.

Or if she had put her seatbelt on.

In a related headline it was written that she would have survived if it wasn't for the damn Frenchies delaying her getting to Hostpital, further down the same article you discovered her Pulmonary vien had been completely torn from her heart and even if she had been in the operating theater inside 1 minute she would still have died.

I hate Journo's more than i hate politicians, more than Traffic wardens, more even than Terrorists.

How did this turn into a thread about Diana? Oh well, I dont care, it was TEN YEARS AGO!

Anywho, this is a quote from an actual conversation I had.

Other guy: You know, Jesus was African-American.

Me: ... Oh, REALLY!?

Other guy: Yep *smirk of moral superiority*

Me: I had no idea Jesus was AMERICAN!

Other guy: *Deer in headlight look at realizing he had walked into a "Here's your Sign" moment.
