My thoughts exactly.

Care to elaborate on why it is shit?

Couldn't find a review of this in the Subject Review so just wanted to see if there were any BOSers who have done Biblical Studies and could offer their thoughts on the content/lecturers etc. Cheers TB

I've already pretty much said what I'm gonna say in the other thread on the MRP about use of sources but basically if your focus is on historiographical analysis then it's better to use a variety of sources than just using historians. Especially when you consider that Aboriginal history is such...

Yeah you need to have a variety of sources for whatever you do, not just historians but experts in the relevant field (in this case warfare/military) as well as things like eyewitness accounts etc. Even if you don't end up including references to all of these secondary sources it's useful to...

As opposed to dead births? Anyway, the point is that the birth rate is therefore two and a half times the miscarriage/abortion rate. What's so problematic about that? If we assume that the numbers are roughly 50/50 then that means 50,000 infant deaths can't be avoided. That means that there...

100,000 is a negligible figure when you consider that that number includes miscarriages aswell as abortions.

Why do we need religious advice in a counselling service such as this? If people want advice from a religious leader they can just go to church/synagogue/mosque/temple etc. or contact their local religious leader in some way. I see no need for the Catholic Church, who have a set stance on...

No, Communism's principles are egalitarianism, democracy and emancipation and, just like capitalism, it is only in its implementation that these principles become corrupted. John Howard's capitalism is meant to promote at least the principles of egalitarianism and democracy aswell but something...

Actually he didn't grab him and harass him because he was Middle Eastern, it was a strategy to solve a crime. Whether that strategy was the 'right' or 'wrong' thing to do is debatable but either way it was effective. So what you are saying is that a university lecturer knows more about...

I did and I'll tell you now you have to really want to do all three. You have to be extremely organised and hard-working and you also have to get the right markers for EE2 cos if you get someone that doesn't like what you did for some reason then you're fucked (sorry I'm just a bit bitter about...

I really don't think we should be exlcuding people or placing greater immigration controls on people based on ethnicity. Instead of saying let's restrict Muslim immigration we should be saying let's restrict the immigration of Muslims who can be shown to be a security risk and we should do the...

It was on the news tonight, they found his body not far from where he made the 000 call in an area that had previously been searched.

Re: Should Australia be a Republic. Yeah I largely agree aswell. I think the American system is fairly sound (not the voting system but the way the government is set up), it's just that they have the wrong people in charge.

Yeah but what about the people that are already Australian citizens, some from birth, who undoubtedly believe that there are other, superior forms of governments to democracy? I think we have to make a distinction between those who may disagree with, but still respect the freedoms and laws of...

What about those immigrants who don't have any access to English language facilities in their country of origin? I imagine many refugees would be a bit upset to say the least if the Government said, 'look, we know there's a war or a crazy government at the moment but if you don't mind we prefer...

Hmmm very insightful indeed. It's interesting that he makes the point that race is the pimary factor in a lot of gang crime, I never had that impression before. It's certainly changed my perspective on gang crime, I used to get annoyed with the media for exaggerating the threat of Middle...

Oh do tell us, bshoc, what is this great understanding of society that you possess? Because it appears to me that your 'understanding' is based around the fact that slightly less than half the population are total idiots while you and other like-minded people are paragons of virtue, the...
