Greetings Roadkill.

Tis true, the UK doesn't seem to be filled with xtian fundies. Not as much opportunity for fun Sad

There's a few good muslim radicals though, but they're just mainly a pain in the ass. *edit* Why did I use the word good? What was I thinking?

Hello and welcome, I'm from the UK and have only just joined as well, (so am currently trawling the introduction forum). You're right that there isn't such a fudamentalist contingent here though, (which is partly why I came on this site in order to better define my outlook on the subject) Smile

Welcome, Roadkill. Dunno about you folk not having trouble with Islamic shitters there. I read recently that the most common name in central England is currently Mohammed (up from no. 2 in 2007). That's a bit disturbing if it is true.

@Epimethean Well I'm not sure if that's true and besides I don't think there's anything wrong with multi-culturalism.

Living in Birmingham I can pretty much confirm that to be true. The muslim population here is probably one of the biggest in europe.

"Multi-Culturalism" is a load of hogwash. It doesn't work and I doubt it ever bloody would.

London's supposedly the most multi-cultural city in the world yet it seems to be working ok so far. The segregation we see in in Bradford for example is actually the opposite of multi-culturalism which has been created by a rejection of these values.

You prompted me to actually start a thread on a connected topic.
I'm sure that covers the failure of multiculturalism.
