So they kill someone and cry culture? For fucksake. They are more than happy to exclude themselves when they do something wrong, but if it goes negatively against them they start crying racism.
"I guess at the end of the day it's a question of whether the cultural practices are acceptable or unacceptable or whether they have crossed boundaries which negate them from being a traditional practice," Detective Levy said.
Yet they then go on to say that no one does that any more because the maori have been urbanised?

Read what it says and wait for outcome before jumping up and down.
While the investigation was being treated as a homicide, there were a lot of legal and cultural issues to work through.
The Police are treating the death as homocide and have simply qualified some issues.......they have not said that they are not taking action.

Ceremony - OK, fatal ones - erm no.. I guess like all cultures Maori are inflicted with neer do wells who claim all sorts of magical ability to work wonders and I'll bet a sack full of shaved weasels that money changed hands to arrange this little shin dig... hence - dumb as a puddle and no - thats not confined to maoridom..

Well, some of the PC stuff surrounding the Maori issue is utter bullshit. I say this as a foreigner in NZ!
E.g. my girlfriend is doing research at the hospital here in Chch. Usually when they're done with a blood sample they just chuck it in the sink. This is obviously not good enough for the maoris... no, no, the blood needs to be fucking blessed before they can chuck it out! :crazy:
Almost no maoris are organ donors because they state that their traditional values are opposed to it. Bullshit, traditionally they'd take the heads of their fallen comrades home and bury them! (And no, I'm not making this one up either!)
But the worst bogus bullshit I've heard about from in there was this: They were taking a project proposal through all the necessary bureaucratic institutions(e.g. ethical commitee, maori commitee, :eek:) necessary to get it approved. Their project had been approved by the maori commitee already but was then failed at the ethical commitee because their testing group didn't include any maoris!!! I mean FFS it's not like there are heaps of maori willing to participate in medical test as it is - and doing research on the impact of genetic profiles on drug usage requires that you have a fairly consistent testing group. I was just dumbfounded!

I usually don't take sides. It ruins my objectivity.
If by darkies you imply people with maori, polynesian or african heritage - I wouldn't say lots, but there are a couple though. I certainly would never "deselect" anyone for social intercourse on those grounds.

Oh, I see what you mean now.
I disagree, the 10 commandments should be covered by standard ethics. And while they are good values, calling them christian values implies that there's a religious aspect.
You can follow the 10 commandments for any number of reasons, let me give a few:
1. You'll burn in hell if you don't! (Catholicism)
2. God will think you're naughty, but if you say "sorry" it's all good cause he loves ya. (Protestantism)
3. You just feel like behaving in that way. (Egoism)
4. You feel that it's a good and proper way to behave around your neighbours. (ethics)
5. It brings you closer to spiritual enlightenment. (Buddism - while their rules are not the same, this is the train of thought)

Que?? Just which side of the argument are you on??
Besides, what's bigotted about being against state-sanctioned mumbo-jumbo? When that very same state won't allow christian-value teachings in schools etc...
I heard that now Sunday school will be banned as 3 or more kids being taught spirituality as christians is educating and they need a trained teacher ffs...
Call them anything you like...the title does not legitimise the content. Nor should the content imply a need to go to church or believe in the mumbo-jumbo of religion.
Which should bring us back to the reason for this thread...specifically, the death of someone as a result of weird beliefs, which the state encourages and foists upon us, as long as it is 'maori' stuff....
I see that as it is a maori practice it will be swept under the carpet and totally excusable..spoze the rest will drown their sorrows under a keg tap...

The news item which this thread is based on has no substance, in my opinion it is a rendering of a journalists pathetic attempt at sensationalism.
The reality is that a young woman died under suspecious circumstances which appear to be related to a religious ceremony. The ethnicity of the deceased and those allegedly involved in the religious ceremony is irrelevant.
Any attempt by someone associated with the event to excuse the cause of death using cultural or religious reasons is only exhibiting their guilt for the responsibility of the young womans death.
However, it makes for a great news article that stimulates a majority of the populations existing frustrations. The consequence is that a group of innocent people sharing the same enthicity of those associated to the event suffer the unfair and unjust effects of racism.

Aww Finn, here's a hug. :hug:
Well, what I find most incredible about the whole maori thing is that all that is required to be considered maori is just that you "feel" that you are maori.
So anyone, you included Finn, could be a maori if you decided to feel maori. And you already said you're a victim - half way there I guess. :lol:
-And I just read your "My Maori Thread" and found it very valid indeed.

Stop trying to start a factual reasoned argument!

This speaks of the need for a stronger science curriculum. And to strengthen individual assertiveness - 40 stood by - Kaumatuas aren't always right, some are craaaaazy!
If the christians can christen kids safely (without drownings) I don't see why some basics on water safety can't help here., for those who want to indulge in hoodoo voodoo.

Cash only, no personal cheques!
Catholics are christians too...
At least not until the kids are old enough to draw their own conclusions on what they are being taught.
Those poor alterboys. Spit or swallow?

Enigma means 'scientology'. A weird set of beliefs started by the science-fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard.
Yep. But you forgot to mention he started Scientology in order to win a bar bet. Some friend wagered him $1000 he couldn't start a new religion and have 1000 adherents inside twelve months. He won. However, at least he was honest about the made-up origins of his religion, unlike every other religion out there.
As for teaching Christian values in schools.. should they teach catholic, jewish, hindu and all the rest.
Not Jewish. Wouldn't trust that lot...
(waits for the inevitable shitstorm)
I heard that now Sunday school will be banned as 3 or more kids being taught spirituality as christians is educating and they need a trained teacher ffs...
Yep - like Graham Capill...
Religious teaching of anyone under the age of 18 should be banned. Period. No sunday school. No chedar. No madrassas. No kids attending church, synagogue, mosque, temples or other places of worship. Nothing. If people under the age of 18 are deemed too immature to drink alcohol and vote, they should be deemed too immature to undergo religious brainwashing, with all the hatred and divisiveness it includes. Certainly no child is able to fully understand the concepts of religion, deism and all that it includes.

And the coroner doing the inquest on Mrs Fullolollies (that's what it sounds like anyway) is being asked to stand down because he knows someone who works for a power company or something like that. Shit, I suppose we're all to blame for her death because we USE power. Get real!

I think you need to try an alternative such as sex therapy, realise those inner demons and face your frustrations of rejection and redicule.
