British hypocrisy and the burka

Someone asked me what I hate the most?

I see myself as being very rational, and despite having been blessed with a fiery nature I can control my emotions pretty well. This is the result of years in Scandinavia and the UK. But on a deeper thought there are indeed few things that make me explode like a Strombolian volcano; cruelty and hypocrisy, specially the British one.

Cruelty should be bread out of human populations through eugenics. Identify those people who are naturally cruel and sterilise them. Actually, by the state of the world, we should sterilise half the population starting with the Taliban.

Hypocrisy aims conflict avoidance, but the English are exquisite in the cultivation of such art. They call it political correctness and go around babbling things they don’t believe in, just to make them look good in the eyes of others who accept as convenient truths the very same things they don’t believe in.

Take for example the burka. The English are prompt in criticising the French for their suggestion to ban it. The argument presented by the English is that everybody has the right to express their religious beliefs and we should respect it. I am not so sure. Some religious beliefs claim that all the infidels should be killed. Should we respect it? Some religious beliefs force female circumcison.Others that it is fair to stone them to death. Should I respect it? If not who decides which ones should I respect and wich ones should I not?
And who respects my right not to have to live in societies that rule us base on irrational mystical beliefs?

The burka should be banned and people should stop making irrational claims just to look politically correct in public.

Humans are social animals that communicate through sound and visual language. One of the most important cues in communication is facial expression. Without it we miss a great deal of information about the intentions of our interlocutor. If an evolutionary and behavioural reasons wasn’t enough, I can as well argue against religious belief. I do not have to take in other people’ s religious beliefs. Besides, since it seems to be fashionable to feel offended when one's religion is attacked, I woudl like to make a stand and say that I feel offended by the burka. Shouldn’t an atheist have the same right to feel offended as a religious believer? Why is it that rights account only to those who hold irrational beliefs? Shouldn't respect work both ways? Why should atheist moral standing be less important? At least we base our reasoning in facts and evidence, which we can't say about religious belief.

When do the British get the courage to say what they think? More dangerous that the BNP are those who silently cultivate the same beliefs. Those we can't identify. At least with the BNP we know who they are!... You can target your enemy if you know where it is. Identifying silent haters is like fighting a guerrilla war where the cowards hide behind their politically correct nonsense gibber.
