Stay several days in an Egyptian Army hospital in Somalia with a stomach infection. There were few possibilities to communicate, only some of the doctors spoke a little English. I had no idea what kind of medication they gave me and the food was something I wasn't used to. My only company except for an odd nurse that checked me once in a while was cockroaches and spiders...

That I will suffer from a stroke and become paralysed; my mind being clear, but unable to communicate.

So that's something I hope we'll never have to share, then...

I end my life in a nursing home like my Mother. It is just awful seeing her there.

The present government of Norway is revising our immigration laws and making it harder for "convenient migrants" to tap into all the social benefits that they have been able to enjoy until now, but which will put a strain on our welfare budget if it continues. And it works! After the news hit the media, the number of asylum seekers have been reduced by 90 percent over the last month.

If you were the prime minister/ruler of your country, which laws would you change/add? Well I'd get rid of all these laws that are being discriminatory against the LGBTQ community for one. The fact that they're being segregated in some ways as much as saying "You can't eat here" "You can't live here" "You can't buy that here"...that's segregation...this is the equivalent of the "White Only" signs people hung up... I get the Priest not being forced to marry someone he believes is marrying into sin however, when it comes to something as basic as having a place to live and a place to eat and shop...these should be basic human rights. You're providing a service and that's it...You're providing to people every day that 'sin' and to deny the LGBTQ community service for their 'sin' then you really oughta start only serving 'pure Christians' which is nobody...legit I'm sure there isn't even one person not living in sin or hasn't done something sinful. I'd also make some pay cuts toward the politicians... |

discriminatory against the LGBTQ community Alongside people with certain disabilities, non-straights seem to be the last group to be discriminated against, now that luckily most gender and race issues are a thing of the past. Religion has always been used as an excuse to put individuals into "undesirable groups" and both "God's will" and the concept of sin have provided bigots with handy arguments to maintain their biased opinions... |
