    If biblical legal standards were enforced we would stone disobedient children to death, alongside adulterers.

    Even today are convicted of murder by a jury and yet convictions are overturned, which is why I cannot support the death penalty. There may be some cases where it is virtually certain that person x is guilty of murder; but for the sake of consistency the punnishment for the same crime must be the same.

    I don’t have a moral problem with killing, if someone were threatening the life of people I love then I would not lose any sleep over taking life to protect them, but as a legal system, I really don’t think that it is satisfactory.

    Hence why the mis-readers of that fairytale are as bad as the mis-readers of the muslim faith. All are insane, but can’t be tried as insane based on a religious belief.

    Well, my opinion is stet.

    Child murderers: –
    We need a 12-0 jury, no possible doubt remains.
    Then Kill them on live TV with phone-ins for the death method. Better than X factor! Even the Arch of Cant would approve, and the Pope.

    Let’s look on the bright-side shall we…..the poppy appeal will raise millions and so far only two collections have been stolen…
    …I’d say that shows an almost incredible level of respect from the population as a whole. 🙂

    No, that’s a cop out. Even to the most optimistic of optimists.
    Birch the basads to within an inch of their lives. Slowly.

    I agree. I’m sure Simon Cowell knew how many public votes each act had and therefore avoided the awkward situation of voting-off a more talented act himself…

    …however it begs the question…..if ‘Jedward’ got more votes wouldn’t that make them the more talented act? :confused:

    Is it not the case that the useless ugly talentless twin misfits are getting their votes from Southern Ireland? Most of Southern Ireland appears rooting for them I believe.
    If they win, then the same people will buy their tosh, which will make money for the Record Co. and unfortunately the pair of them. Which is the whole idea of the show…..even though it is called the X factor, indicating that they are looking for somebody special etc.

    Shouldn’t that post be in the ‘What made you horny’ thread? :diablo:

    No. That would be a double act with Cheryl AND Danni.
    Damn, cold shower required.
