    Just post the link to thread in here then, so people can debate the issue there, and save this for anyone who might know of cheap designs

    Alton Towers are also doing a gay adult weekend.

    I couldn't care less, it's a business, they can do as they like.
    *ears prick up* Oh really?!

    I assume this isn't coinciding with the Muslim culture day?

    An article from The Sun, reposted on a fundamentalist Christian website?

    Hmm, maybe we ought to start a thread in P&D about this, because this Alton Towers thread has now been totally derailed.

    How apt.

    Anyway i can't say i'm really that bothered. This is not a white english christian country. Everyone should be allowed to do what they like.

    Music, gambling and alcohol were to be banned for the day and theme park rides such as "Ripsaw", "Corkscrew" and "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" all segregated by sex.

    :eek2:

    It's spelt "Halal" not "hallal". I went to Alton Towers when that rule was placed I for one agree with it; I also think many other muslims do to :).

    I think it's a good thing because women should be fully clothed even though they may not feel like dressing that way. I know Islam has a more stricked guidence rulee compared to other religions but many many muslims do fellow the rules :)

    Women were aloud to talk.. It is not shit, I think it iss very good; a way to spread a muslim message!
