Technically it's not a religious belief I suppose, but more a cultural one, though the talk of spirits and things again points to religion even if it's not explicitly expressed as one, though it does say that "Established customs of a religion" are exempt?

Technically speaking, because that part is a religious event, though I don't specifically agree with it I guess they're within their rights to request that?

1143420 2010-10-12 08:28:00 I apologise to voxy.co.nz for making incorrect assumptions about their site.
My ignorance knows no bounds.

Hi Erayd
You were correct about the email notifications.
I had a reply from the site saying there was automatic email notification, and to turn it off. Feel really bad now about shooting my mouth off before waiting for their reply. Thankyou for making me aware of email notication, will keep that in mind next time.
Cheers Marg :)

1143422 2010-10-12 09:58:00 Thanks. Wasn't aware I had posted it on the forums yet, so a little surprised people have found it already, yet it's getting quite the hits in the last hour or two since I posted it :) I found the subject rather interesting, and a surprisingly good chance for self-reflection!

1143423 2010-10-12 10:01:00 Oh, I haven't seen you link to it, I was just reading a whole bunch of updates, and saw you mention they you might blog on the topic.

Any idea where the hits are coming from (referers, etc)?

1143424 2010-10-12 10:24:00 michael laws is another upstart that should be booted out of the public arena, like paul henry he is just using it for personal aggrandizement.

Another big mouth that needs to zip it.

I am definitely not interested in anything this strutting little peacock has to say.

1143425 2010-10-12 18:57:00 Think about it though - Henry apologised, then apologised some more because he CLEARLY didn't realise he had insulted a whole slew of NZers as well as the GG with his errant mouth .

Michael Lhaws was intending to cause insult, then caused insult by saying everyone that was insulted needs to get over it .

Who would deserve their job back?

As much as I hate Paul Henry, he has far more grace than Lhaws and will probably learn from his massive beat-up .

1143426 2010-10-12 19:19:00 Yeah mostly referrers to it today / yesterday are from my posting it to Facebook. There's a few from my PF1 sig.

PEBKAC, you're right, though each has to adhere to their own local broadcasting standards, even though the law says both are technically within their rights. See my latest blog post for a quick run-down ;)

1143427 2010-10-12 19:45:00 If Henrys laughter over Dicksh!t was so offensive, why has that very samme 'offensive' clip been replayed over and over in the news broadcasts? Are we trying to cause even more offense, or is there really nothing to get offended about.

Exactly Paul, it’s a classic example of hypocrisy and double standards, something I notice on this site from time to time. ;)

Ellis should be fired for allowing these highly offensive insults to be replayed ad nauseam. :D
