Kobojunkie: 1. Wrong! Aristocracy(rule by the best) Aristocracy does not mean "rule by the best". And selecting them based on their aristos is like DEI based its on diversity, equally, incl Kobojunkie: 2. It did not fail! Rather, it was eroded by dubious elements both from within and from without. That is why I am for bringing back the death penalty in the case of Treason. DEI has more than proven itself to be a disaster, and it will only continue to get worse.  Actually, it did fail, or at least it is being destroyed by those it disadvantaged who fought for change as DaddyJapan has rightly linked to. Kobojunkie: 3. You seem more like one who is disconnected from the history of the British state/Empire in this.  I think you might change your mind when you realise that the British Aristocracy were not the best at anything, and often handed their supposed aristos to their slowpoke first borns.

DaddyJapan: Sadly, there are so many other social climbers who act and think just like her. She's trying to outfarage Farage. Thankfully, there are many like us who either don't climb social ladders or not like her, and there's more like us who see her for the despicable she is. |

Kobojunkie: Nonsense article! Kemi Badenoch's approach is common sense! DEI is a failed experiment. Successful empires were built and sustained by mostly meritocratic means. Britain has fallen from to levels near that of a third-world country because of the stewpid DEI experiment it has blindly committed itself to.  For your information. Britain was not built on meritocracy, it was built on aristocracy, which is like DEI for the privileged noble class. And yes, it failed, and it was replaced with the current DEI in an attempt to rebalance the scales, for which I am personally grateful they tried. And Kemi needs to go to school to learn some history apropo the below so she stops sounding uninformed! But I damn sure helped create a Britain in which her CV and job application would be read.

Christianity Etc › Re: A Pastor Says There Has Never Been A Christian Nation Do You Agree Or Disagree by budaatum: 2:25pm On Jul 08 |
Kobojunkie: That said, Christianity is not a political system that one would imagine a nation could be built upon its doctrines alone. Christianity is wholly a religion. It does not come with a built-in political system on which a nation can be founded. Christianity, like many other religions out there, essentially offers a moral foundation/framework upon which a nation can then be built such as we have in parts of the West.  I'd think all systems are built on the abundance of minds, which devices the "moral foundation/framework", and underpins a nation. And I believe it can be built, with a loosely evolved definition of "a nation", and a combination of Islam and Christianity and our traditions as the "religion out there". The below is to emphasise what needs overcoming before building commences. And beware we might not be meaning the same thing with the word "Christianity". https://eu.vvdailypress.com/story/lifestyle/faith/2016/08/26/why-did-gandhi-say-x2018/985856007/

The case of Celia Hibbert, born in Jos, Plateau State, educated at Imo State University, and now henchwoman of racist Nigel Farage in Wolverhampton also comes to mind. This Nigerian as party leader is become a bit of a thing, I notice. The Tory's have Badenoch, the Liberal Democrats have Josh Babarinde. And I'm certain it's because they hot. I must go and ask Polanski to make president of our big bobby party!

You guys rate others too much.
In UK, Nigel Farage of the Reform Party received £5 million bribe and he would not face a day in prison. He might have to face days as an ex-MP for starts. Nigel Farage has announced he is to resign as the MP for Clacton to fight a byelection, revealing he is under a second investigation by the parliamentary standards watchdog over undeclared gifts. I quoted you because you were the last to mention him on NL.

Poems For Review › Re: Our Father - By That Atheist by budaatum(op): 1:15pm On Jul 07 |
For context
Someone is praying that the arrogant buda must be humble and submit, and the arrogant buda is making sure the Gods listen to buda instead so buda may burn in hell.
And to celebrate my father. |
Poems For Review › Our Father - By That Atheist by budaatum(op): 1:12pm On Jul 07 |
Our Father, Buried 10 years ago.
Hallowed be you and yours, as in, that of the those you nurtured and bred so what you willed is here on earth now.
Thank you for giving us the ability to use the brain in our head to eat.
And for the ability to forgive ourselves so we can forgive others.
And for feeding us fruits of knowledge so we do good.
We inherit the power and the glory.
This Unified Kingdom is Our's!
So it is. |
