Of Catholics And Cliffs
"Surveys of Muslim communities in Ontario, France and other western jurisdictions show polygamy is accepted de facto, and recent rulings by Britain's pensions ministry reveal that it's also acknowledged de jure, albeit tentatively. On the other hand, by the police's own admission, there have been at least 120 honor killings in Britain which the constabulary declined to look at too closely on the grounds of "cultural sensitivity". The fact that putting Catholics out of the adoption business should be the priority in a week when British imams have been secretly filmed urging homosexuals be hurled off cliffs shows that the real issue remains not any "privilege" (in Andrew's word) to particular faiths accorded by law but the privilege accorded to one religion by multiculti cravenness."
