There are a minority of old School Christians who are as incompatible wirht modern Britain as Old School Islam is. The problem is, you are deliberately ignoring the hundreds of thousands of moderate Muslims who are perfectly integrated into our society. You only hear about the extreme Muslims on the news, and because you're deliberately ignorant of moderate Muslims, and only go on what other people have told you, you don't like them.
You said it's your right to be ignorant of other cultures in Britain, but it's very telling that your deliberate ignorance doesn't extend to hearing about the negative aspects of Islamic followers. You seem quite happy to hear about that, and then regurgitate it here. Quote: | No, their is not really an alternative who ferociously defends there beliefs, so the only choice are more "racist types" | So you're saying people are voting for parties they don't agree with, because they can't find a party that represents them? And you're saying this isn't stupid? Quote: | Im saying alot of ethnic minorities form communities and only really think about "their own", i know this ive seen it and lived it | So you're saying that it's OK for people to vote for a racist party without thinking of the consequences, because ethnic minorities only think of "thier own"? Can you give me an example of this from your first hand experience? Quote: | well yeah, but some groups your allowed to address, others youre not | Such as? Quote: | I said socially, no fighting the wars, people might have fought wars and be very conservative, however people respected parents more, believed in working hard more, didnt commit so much crime, didnt carry weapons with them, had manners and kids didnt answer back | So you're saying that because of Muslims, children no longer respect adults, people commit more crimes, and more people carry weapons? Quote: | Well they wouldnt be here, thus the problem of muslims in British society would not be here, AS THEY WOULD NOT BE HERE | So out of "a lot" of examples, you have provided zero. Can you give even one?

| The Laws of this country are still based on christianity, Christianity doesnt clash in the same way. Quote: |

| No, its the persons choice, i myself have no problems with looking into diffrent cultures im interested in, but its a choice, so this enforced multiculturalism isnt right Quote: |
So you're saying people are voting for parties they don't agree with, because they can't find a party that represents them? And you're saying this isn't stupid?
| they are voting for what they feel will defend what they believe, its not stupid as no other alternatives suit them and they dont care about groups they feel do not care about them. Quote: |

| Im not saying its right at all, all im saying is its wrong to say they are all stupid.
My "first hand experiance" was/is with my own family, my father still cant speak English apart from very little and my Mum was the same, also the Chinese community, while hard working and quiet, still mainly care about just Chinese people. well people are allowed to freely discredit things traditionally English, but have its racist for people to critisize other cultures Quote: |
So you're saying that because of Muslims, children no longer respect adults, people commit more crimes, and more people carry weapons?
| no, you've twisted that and you know it, i was saying how society was better, i didnt blame it all on muslims Quote: |

| I spelt it out for you, if they werent here, theey'd be nothing there to cause the problems that arrise. |

| Forcing things upon people isn't right, neither is persecuting an entire faith because of the actions of a few. Quote: |

| In other words, they don't like Muslims so they don't care what happens to them. Racists. Quote: |

| They're not all stupid, most of them are just racist. Quote: |
My "first hand experiance" was/is with my own family, my father still cant speak English apart from very little and my Mum was the same, also the Chinese community, while hard working and quiet, still mainly care about just Chinese people.
| So if Chinese are so incompatible, how have they managed to stay so long in the UK? How have they managed with no interaction or trade or communication with the other residents of the UK? By your reasoning, you could say the people of London aren't compatible with the people of Slough. Quote: |
well people are allowed to freely discredit things traditionally English, but have its racist for people to critisize other cultures
| Example? Quote: |

| I haven't twisted anything, you said we've lost our Britishness as a result of Muslims living in the country. Even though you can't say what it is we've lost, and you can't even tell me what Britishness is. Quote: |

| What problems?

| So a muslim who looks out for muslims, votes for things that will benefit muslims but not others are also "racist" and since when is religion a race? Quote: |
They're not all stupid, most of them are just racist.
| Thats just the easier answer, just to cast them aside. Quote: |

| Keeping quiet and working hard, the point i was making is "communities" look out for their own, while from English people to do the same is wrong, but its no diffrent and dont start argueing about chinese people, i am of Chinese "ethnicity" and lived with the "community" so i think i know a bit more than you. If somebody claims British culture is crap, its okay, but if an English person said it about other cultures, they are a "racist" funny thing is, my husbands family taking distain to us is supposidly "racist" while my dad initially taking distain is just "tradition", in my opinion there is no diffrance!

| Again you're going to have to start applying context to your statements, what have Muslims voted on in this country, which is purely of benefit to Muslims? Quote: |

| It isn't. But the fact remains that nearly all Muslims in this country are of an ethnic minority race. If it were a western religion, no one would give two tosses about it. Quote: |

| No the easier answer is to say they vote for a party they don't agree with because some of their policies happen to be what they want, and they are happy to ignore all the nasty bits. It's simplistic and utter rubbish. You're never going to convince me that someone who isn't racist would knowingly vote for a racist party, unless they secretly agreed, or were completely stupid.

| Fine. I'd like to know though, what's it like living in a cut off chinese-only part of the UK with no contact with other cultures? Quote: |

| Thats Night Terror that is Will.....fiesty little minx.
I believe there is a frustration amongst middle englanders.
The "conservative" with a small C, majority of us.
The only Party addressing the real "on the street" concerns for them is a racist party.
Any votes for the BNP are a protest vote, that do alter the policies of the main parties.....and that is the only benefit. Quote: |
..................my husbands family taking distain to us is supposidly "racist" while my dad initially taking distain is just "tradition".....................
