This thread is for discussions about whether God exists. I created a similar thread a long with the same title but I eventually deleted it because it became a monster. I am reluctant to recreate this thread, however such discussions about God are encroaching on a number of different topics and...
A thread to discuss domestic political events that dont quite warrant their own thread. A substitute to fill the vaccume left after the big election threads. Discuss, laugh, cry. Will be more lax on spam here, as long as it's broadly Australian politics.
If Obama had the gumption that Latham had he would have eased the squeeze long ago. The troops would have been home by Christmas and all around America kids would have been climbing the ladder of opportunity.

Hi so this is just going to be an open thread in which you can ask myself and other anti-statists questions about anti-statism, whether they be philosophical, about the economics/practical workings of a hypothetical stateless society, or anything else you feel is relevant e.g. How will roads be...

Many of the criticisms that have been flung towards the Coalition and Labor party in the previous election campaign is that neither of the parties support equal marriage rights for homosexuals. The question I pose to you is that are homosexuals, simply put, allowed to marry? The practice of...
The international student body represents a severe and crippling problem for Australia. These cancers drain our society. They are rude, they band together, they do not adapt to our culture, and none of this is remedied by the money they initially bring in: the cancerous nature of internationals is...

As I'm sure some of you know, there is a fairly comprehensive political test called the 'Political Compass'. It goes beyond the traditional left-right spectrum. This is the link: The Political Compass Do the test and then share your results. :) Here's what I got: Economic Left/Right: -7.12...
do they deserve it sometimes? is it ok to hit a girl? lots of celebrities seem to be doing it, chris brown, mathew newton, charlie sheen, mel gibson etc, so maybe its cool these days? should penalties be reduced for domestic violence if it can be proven that she/he deserved it?

Texas mum told operator she killed kids if you has ever met an autism then you should know they are devil children who don't even follow Islam because they are like too logical and they will be sent to Jahannam (SWT). bless this mother
The media as a whole has a left wing bias. This is not debateable and i do not want to debate the validity of this statement. I acknowledge that the bias of educated factual news sources is negligible but the truth is that people are stupid and people watch A Current Affair. I wonder then, how many...
Hey guys, does anybody here have access to the academic database JSTOR? I am not affiliated with any institutions so I don't have access. If anybody can procure this article for me, I would be most grateful: http://www.jstor.org/pss/1162003
Occupation/Profession is often linked to a strong bias in terms of political views. For instance, here in Australia, two basically true stereotypes are that teachers are left-wing and those in the military and police are right-wing. What in your opinions are other occupations where there is a...

We take the dregs of our society, give them guns and expect them to protect us. Police only exist to destroy interactions between willing people and 1% of the time actually stop proper crimes against property. They are ill-informed scum that believe they are the thin line between society and...

It's obvious this liberal judge is trying to stop ACA's hard hitting attacks on the scum of society, probably in league with liberal activist lawyers who want to make it legal to steal from everyone but illegal to say it's happening. Disgraceful!
