IF GOD IS GOOD, WHY IS THERE EVIL IN THE WORLD? With Hamza Andreas Tzortzis Feb 5th 2010, 5:30PM Kings College, Waterloo Campus, B5 The world is plagued with an array of distressing events - from international wars and large-scale natural disasters to domestic cases of horrific torture and abuse. But why exactly do these events feature in the world when God is supposed to be good? Hamza's discussion will explore this very question in what is anticipated to be a truly unmissable event!

I agree on the first count their entitled to express their opinions, but its imposing them upon others i have a problem with. Now these people who are wearing that, are out of conscious/individual choice to wear what they deem is appropriate on their bodies and we should respect that and not subjugate them to what some might regard as socially acceptable clothing’s. Won’t you agree? Parents have the same right to object to what their kids are wearing. If they feel their kids are dressing inappropriately they are entitled to let them know about their disapproval. On a societal level, Qatar is a Muslim country where the dress code is one of modesty (Islamically and culturally). It cannot be equated with the EU/West where societal expectations as well as governing laws vary considerably. Come on Norf, are you seriously saying the campaign has/is equal in its scrutiny? How can this be in a society that is clearly very much gendered? in such patriarchal societies (and i use patriarchal loosely) any cultural shift that gives women some form of choice or emancipation from their situations tends to be viewed as a process of “westernisation” thus attract a backlash and more or less women find themselves fighting for their spaces...and by rendering it as such denies women there agency thus robbing them of their experiences/rights and this in itself is an act of power. Hence-why it’s important to recognise that we can do without certain cultural regulations, especially ones that subjugate women....what is good for women/not shouldn’t be decided by men or cultural governors, women should be able to exercise their right to voice/choice and agency without fear. This is the middle east dear. I don’t see why you’re surprised that this is happening. When all of the peripheral issues are done away with there remains Islam as the governing law of Qatar/ME. Those in power believe it is their duty to dissuade any members of their populace from veering into what can be construed by them as contradictory to Islam. An Arab ruler will not change those laws nor will he tell parents to respect what their kids wear even if they disapprove. The question here is: If clothing worn by women in Qatar are contrary to what the ruler believes is prescribed in Islam, is it wrong for the government to try and change it (back to something that is, according to them, Islamically correct)? Now we get to the heart of the matter- conservative culture. Now do you think these cultures need to change when it comes to issues of women’s rights? (Now am also using women loosely here, since we’re not a homogenous entity but rather heterogeneous with distinct needs and wants depending on individual sights) Is it a right to wear what you want as a Muslim in a Muslim country where the laws are Islam and you’re expected to dress modestly? We’re not just talking about women here either. Men are frowned upon for wearing shorts, walking around shirtless, wearing tight jeans/clothing etc. And i agree, it most certainly has, but we must not regress/use that as an excuse to curtail progress, we must march forward and make progress and demand women to be given the right, choice to do/wear what they like without the fear of prosecution. It is expected that a Muslim woman dresses modestly. If she doesn’t, like I alluded to earlier, those in power will try to dissuade them. Even foreigners are told to dress modestly when landing in the country. It is important to differentiate between societies/laws in the west and societies/laws in the ME. There will never be the same rights in both societies and, most importantly, individual rights are in line with their respective laws (in both London and Doha).

It’s been announced on Sky Sports News that Capello has phoned Wayne Bridge to let him know that John Terry has lost his captain’s armband. He has asked Bridge to check under the bed.

Sayid, you're the man who said Talking about laxoox - reminded me of story of londoner who went to Buhoodle and married local girl. on the first morning the girl woke up early and prepared an all somali breakfast: Laxoox, fried liver, fresh coffee on a table with fresh flowers and all the nine yards as they say. My stomach has been rumbling since

I was exhausted. All I wanted to do was relax but obviously I had to sit with that mess in front of me for half an hour. I swear the sponge shafts moved at one point. So that was that Richard. I didn't eat a bloody thing.

Val, ever been on public transport with a couple of islaamo chatting away? They would be at the front of the bus and you at the back but by the end of your journey you know about the problems they have with their kids, their health problems and last night's Universal TV shows
