Things have changed a lot over the years, but one thing has remained constant and that is our love of the Mariners. People come and go, some like to post a lot and others just like to read. It's up to you how you participate in the community!

Apart from the rezoning argument, isn't the planned site of the Islamic school also in an area regarded as high risk with regards to flooding?

Just some clarifications and further points on this...
Oh you are quite right in your scepticism Kareem. I'm sure the protests and the mobilisation of the residents stirred up the Council, particularly heading towards a Council election this coming Saturday. But they found legitimate concerns about the proposed development and their reasoning can probably be tested in some Administrative Tribunal or Planning & Environment Hearing of some sort.
On the flip side, did the Quranic Society think they could build a school holding 1200 students in a small town without scrutiny and some emotive response if they didn't explain it well enough?
It really depends upon the religion's view of itself and whether they view themselves as a separate race of people, and whether other people accept that view.
Jewish people tend to believe that they are a race of people, and in more recent historical times, they have the State of Israel to prove that this has been 'accepted' by others. Do Muslim folks view themselves as a race of people or as a religion, I dunno?
By saying 'we' are you referring to Australia in general or us here for placing comments within this Thread about the issue down at Camden? I'm not sure that's all.
When they fire up that Collider, Serious, all this 'us vs. them' rhetoric will probably disappear into the same out of control black hole that the rest of the world is going to gurgle into, according to some crackpot. The only good thing about that scenario is that it will be the Froggies & Swiss down the plug hole first!
;D
Blame the likes of Ursus, Bex and Atomic if this happens (all mad scientists the lot of 'em! ).
I'm quite content to leave it as is, but NOOOOOOOOOOO, they must push the envelope until they finally get the big bang, just so they can say,
, to the creationists.
Hopefully the Socceroos will have a chance to complete the game vs. Uzbekistan before the world turns itself inside out.....
Kareem I'm neither for nor against such a school personally, and I have nothing to do with Camden, but was responding to points brought up by Dibo and had thought about it. I felt that I had something to contribute by offering alternative views that I saw may have been more closer to the reality of a Council decision.Kareem said:

Thank God I live in a community that isnt 100% full of bogans...
I know I may cause contraversy by saying this
Newcastle>Camden
Plenty of bogan up here in Scumville.
Sadly, plenty of religious dodginess going on too.
At my child's state pre-school you have to get permission to stop the God-botherers from getting into her mind at 'religious instruction' classes. Once permission is given, she is told to basically sit in a corner while all the other kiddies get brainwashed.
It would be all fine and dandy if all these people taught were good values. Sadly they preach. Badly.
One classic statement at the pre-school orientation from the Catholic preacher-in-charge: "We are tolerant here and accept all faiths, even Jews and Muslims!"
Saints be praised.
