    Another priest molestation scandal...

    Well I've been trying to find a study or something that has researched this and I haven't found anything except Michael Jackson and Religious Clergy-related articles and essays :/ A google search reveals something called the 'John Jay Report'. But I am apprehensive about the statistics...

    1. Yes, yes it would make them homosexuals 2. I am very much aware how rape works, but you are making an assumption yourself that the priests wanted to exert power over these little boys and nothing else 3. This is true, yes, in fact I have heard about priests having live-in homosexual partners...

    The right to bear arms

    I didn't say that "the only way to make streets safer is to allow the use and free distribution of weapons". If that's what I think, then I would have said it. Instead, I was clearly pointing out that IN FACT your claims that the "streets" are safe doesn't hold true everywhere in Sydney. /eyeroll

    The right to bear arms

    In my corner of Sydney drive-by shootings and stabbings have been increasing. It happens every week and yes, innocents get killed. The streets just aren't as safe as they should be.

    The right to bear arms

    Totally should have the right to bear arms. Armed robbery rates will go down for sure if the citizens of Australia embrace the law. Would you try and shoot up someone who COULD be holding a gun? Only if you're an idiot.

    Typing vs writing notes

    In class I write semi-neat-semi-messy notes on good quality rhodia pads, tear the paper out and store them in an arch-lever file. Then I re-write my notes using the syllabus in separate notebooks that I always keep at home. These notes are concise and have exactly what I need to know in them and...

    You are one of many intolerant bigots in this forum. You don't like somebody's opinion? Refute it profusely with facts, instead of just...whinging.

    Another priest molestation scandal...

    Across Afghanistan there is a growing number of "dancing boys"; more and more young boys are kept and sold as prostitutes for the benefit of their masters. This makes me feel sick. http://www.rawa.org/temp/runews/2012/04/05/afghanistan-sees-rise-in-dancing-boys-exploitation.html

    That is not necessarily true. I have a very good understanding of Christianity myself; I grew up in the Pentecostal church whilst attending catholic schooling throughout my entire education, so I became rather acquainted with most aspects of it. In fact I know I had a better knowledge base on...

    What time do you guys sleep on a school night?

    I have a terrible habit of sleeping later i.e. 12-1am during the holidays so the first few weeks back at TAFE are a bit tough, but I gradually drag the hours back to around 10.30-11pm, w/ 7am wake up; the good part is that I have heaps of flexibility in my timetable and I only have one 8.30...

    I did Business studies and it had quite a lot of essay writing involved. Also some basic budgeting (not very hard at all) =] Unsure about Modern but obviously more essay writing than business studies. (I hope you like essays lol).

    Subject Selections for year 11?!

    Pay a little attention to scaling, but also try and choose subs you are good at/like as this will help you get through the next few years not only alive, but happy. If you think you could handle maths/phys/chem, go for it, but remember you'll be spending 2 years of your life on these subjects.

    Another priest molestation scandal...

    In the US about 2% of Roman Catholic priests have sexually exploited minors (e.g., anyone under the age of 18). (Goodstein, 2003; Jenkins, 2001; Loftus and Camargo, 1993; W. V. Robinson, 2002; Rossetti, 2002a). God only knows how many trusted religious authority figures have done so. This is...

    None of what soloooo said made sense initially, then I realised he/she was being not only irrelevant but a smart ass (by using the strict definition of "Celibacy"). So lame.
