China Cancels Christmas in Hong Kong ? Leaving Churches Fearing for Their Future Wed Dec 18, 2024 11:22 | John MacNab
China has cancelled Christmas in Hong Kong this year. Officials have ordered that the usual celebrations be 'toned down'. It's part of a creeping intolerance that leaves churches fearing for the future, says John MacNab.

Eating dogs rather than the treatment of them seems to be the main isssue, would you really want to destroy an intergral part of another culture's culinary traditions?
Yates - please read the summary of the demonstration once again. The way the Korean's are eating dogs and cats is not acceptable - FYI - the dog is skinned alive and then roasted slowly; this is thought to improve the taste of the meat. Cats are boiled alive until they are liquidated into cat "juice". So Yates -do you call this culture? ARAN protests for the rights of ALL animals not just dogs and cats. What the Koreans are doing to their animals is NOT culture - it is cruelty at the highest stakes. Please do not support this and check your facts next time you want to make a statement about other cultures "culinary traditions".
Lobsters are boiled alive too ? Do they have rights as well or are crustaceans being discriminated against ?
And so are crabs. Anyone up for a demo outside "Celebrity Fishmonger" Cavistons in Glasthule?
Theres probably some "claws" against this in their constitution . Celebrity fishmongers probably arent a legitimate target . The wrong time and Plaice for a demo .
I believe the previous poster has hijacked my genuine concern for the plight of lobsters and is only acting the cod . His post is a red herring .
Sorry. it warmed the cockles of my heart, so i was trying to stay in tuna with the general thrust of your argument, and not skate on thin ice. I'll scale it down.
FIN.
your apology sounds fishy to me . I still reckon you were being shellfish .
That stuff about Koreans eating cats and dogs . If this is true are there any Korean restaraunts in Dublin ? And does anyone know wht the hell the menu means in English , or even as gaeilge
You're really floundering. Stop carping one about it. You don't have the sole right to the issue.
Ive been defeated in the pun contest . The use of obscure brands of fish has done for me .
but it was squid pro quo.
Siobhan we all agree with you. Sometimes people will come on these internet sites and just try stur up stupid silly ridiculous arguments. We are as ARAN volunteers focussed....Moving on to the real fight for animal liberation and heck are we doing a good job at it!
pah , interfering westerners . Do we complain , during theyear of the pig when you eat bacon sandwiches ? you round eyed barbarians !!
The noble cow is sacred to millions yet you slap it between a stale bun and go yum yum , we are the burger kings !!
If god didnt want us to eat dogs he would not have made them so tasty in the first place .
It all sounds like a species argument to me.
I think the animal rights crowd are barking up the wrong tree on this one . Derek R , despite his optimism doesnt seem to be any closer to persuading millions of koreans to stop eating their household pets . Or us to stop munching cows pigs and chickens and little baby lambs , which taste absolutely gorgeous with new potatos .
mmmmmmm
bitchin' story, but not enough puns about dogs...
now, if it were dogfish....
these puns are of a poor pedigree indeed .
...in the open air .
Not enough room to swing a cat in a korean kitchen , apparently .
I am a strict vege, have been all my life, I don't have a problem with people eating meat as long as they feel they could kill it themselves instead of needing it neatly packaged. On the score of dogs, I think the difference between that and a calf is that most animals that are consumed are mostly vegitarian, if it eats flesh, don't eat it!!
