    where the heck did you get that from? We've had women in politics, both state and federal for ages, decades. The last Premier of our state (NSW) was an American born woman.

    Wrong. The Lady who was Prime Minister of Australia was there before her one suspects.

    yep she is the first Muslim women, but not the first muslim. She will probably lose on the next election, because the Greens are so out of favour at the moment.

    only by the fact she is a muslim? anyway we are getting off topic.

    I have this theory, and I attribute this to 99% of the things that are wrong in the world today. Our population is way to big, at 7 billion and growing that is totally unsustainable, we need to find ways to reduce the worlds population somehow. Less incentive for people to have so many kids, especially in countries that can ill afford more people.

    no, by the fact she is the first! muslim woman.i don't get the connection to the topic,but in my opinion how many children people choose to have is their own bussiness.its not the population of the world thats the problem.its the greed.anyway back on topic,more good news.we are still winning the war on terror over here.an great news to ta hear bout the new peace talks to begin between other revolutionarys an the u.s. an britain before anymore lives are lost due to impearlisim.

    It's not big news Roamy. We have Muslim women in the courts, running government agencies, businesses etc. She is just another politician.

    It has a lot to do with it. Over population means less resources, less resources means black market and crime, which feeds terrorist organisations.

    Remember this:

    Terrorists may get money from regional, cheap cigarette smuggling ring: Ray Kelly
    Some of those arrested in the bust have links to Omar Abdel-Rahman, the blind sheik, and Rashid Baz, who opened fire on a van of Yeshiva students on the Brooklyn Bridge, killing Ari Halberstam. ‘We're concerned because similar schemes have been used in the past to help fund terrorist organizations like Hamas and Hezbollah,’ says Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly.

    It has been written by several, in fact quite a few well known scientists, that if we keep going as we are, we will run dry of essential resources by 2060. Then even the rich will have to line up for basic needs. Water is our most precious resource, look at African countries now. Even here in Australia we have had water restrictions from time to time. We will not be able to feed a projected 9 billion people.

    I do hope Roamy. I hope my kids (if I have them) will have a good life, I hope there is enough for everyone. But that hope fades everyday I see the atrocities in the world :(

    You didn't answer my first question. "What is it you claim to be fiction that has been presented by me?"

    The Irish and English are different races? I can't tell one from the other, and my Grandmother who was English and my Grandfather who was Irish seemed to not have any decernable differences other than being a male and a female.

    Cultural differences can occur within a family, and usually arise as a result of people living close and working together, with one another, over time. Generally, people pick and choose their friends based on the beliefs and other things they have in common.

    Why do we go to such great length to look for ways to divide us from one another rather than focus on what unites us as human beings?
