She'd be at danger from drowning.

You make my posts seem almost sensible

Be careful here googlemonster, it's not that we don't agree with you in some ways but we prefer a subtle approach to such subjects.

Hey you again, wash your mouth! You aren't welcome, because you're just throwing random insults around.

Look we all live in countries where we have to, sometimes, accept that by our standards things seem irrational and illogical. Many cultures and societies are still developing concepts such as a secular state. Even in western countries these ideas have only been around, perhaps, less than 200 years (Late 1870's IRRC). Whole societies do not just "see the light", it takes time and all we can do is stand back.

It's education and gradual infiltration of western concepts that will eventually change entire societies, push too fast and you face revolt because people are moved by inches.

It's now clear the OP's only intention in posting on BE is to wind people up, therefore I have banned him and so I am closing this thread.
