Reminds me of this
:
Tattoo of Leviticus 18:22 forbidding homosexuality: £200.
Not knowing that Leviticus 19:28 forbids tattoos: Priceless
Which 'Hawaiians'? This group most certainly does not represent the majority of Hawaiians, nobody has elected them. They don't even represent the majority of natives, since they are not organized in a simple hierarchical way (unlike continental Native American tribes). I predict that the case will be dismissed for the lack of standing, eventually. So yeah, these 'prote$ter$' can go and fuck themselves with a genetically modified papaya.
I don't think that lack of hierarchical organisations should prevent native people from having a say in the way their land is used. Obviously consensus is important, but if they can agree through polling, meetings or some other means then that should be enough.
Authors of manuals may become rich
Although reading reference material in digital format is not that simple (at least for me), that's exactly the kind of book where each page may be read several times.
That really depends on whether the author gets paid every time a purchaser reads a page or just the first time. Typically reference manuals will have a few sections that are relevant to the user, and a lot that are not. If they only get paid the first time a page is read then reference manual authors may not do well.
Religiophobia is a fear of religions, not of possible adherents of a particular one. Xenophobia is the correct word in this case.
its hard to tell with you whether it's ignorance or wilful misrepresentation - but xenophobia means "Intense or irrational dislike or fear of people from other countries". Hatred of things like Nazism, Islam, and other ideologies based on supremacy and violence or suppression of others is neither irrational nor based on country of origin.
Is London where you developed or discovered your xenophobic streak, or did that happen after you moved to the countryside?
When did you stop beating your wife?
Someone I once worked with put it best regarding living in London, there are two groups of people, there are those who have lived there for a short time, i.e. only a year or two who think it's the best thing ever because they've not yet exhausted all the attractions, and then there are the people who lived there all their lives, and know that once the attractions are done, and you've eaten at all the cool places to eat, it's an incredibly shit city to live in.
I moved from London to somewhere where I can walk to unspoiled moor land from my house and live in a 4-bedroom house at the same cost as a studio apartment in London and have no desire to move back. When I have to travel there for work (maybe a week each year) a single trip on the underground reminds me why I moved out.
That said there are some people who live in London and love it. I know people who can't imagine living somewhere where the nearest cinema is a half-hour's drive away and the nearest decent theater over an hour away though.
Happiness is twin floppies.
