I still maintain that denial of The Stolen Generations is morally equivalent to Holocaust Denial.


Well, you have always been mentally negligible so this claim is of no surprise.

Windschuttle?  Talk about a historian who is ideologically driven (or in his case, financially driven)...    Roll Eyes

Prove him wrong, bozo, prove him wrong.  You pretend to be an intellectual, here's your opportunity to show your mental prowess.


I don't need to, others have, Soren.  His claims have been picked apart by Robert Manne, et al:

Someone said we could not judge a person's Aboriginality on their skin colour.  Why isn't that applied in the matter of Pascoe?  Tsk, tsk, tsk...   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Is there nothing you'll deny?  Is the sky blue?   Are clouds white and fluffy and carry rain?  Do Bunny Rabbits have long ears?  Do Tigers have stripes?  Are you a fool?    Grin Grin Grin Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Grin Grin Grin

Sure, as I said in part one of this thread, I think the government has no place telling people what version of history is the correct one and which version they are allowed to promote. I can understand people getting particularly wound up over this one, but it is time we grew up. The government can not and should not protect us from ideas.


How about denial of the Stolen Generations, FD?  Government denial of their existence and any need to apologise under Howard versus an apology on the behalf of all Australians under Rudd.   Which was the morally correct path?



There was no Stolen Generation.




Raven is going to have to disagree with you there.

Quoth the Raven "Nevermore"

Raven would rather ask questions that may never be answered, then accept answers which must never be questioned.

Raven is going to have to disagree with you there. When the various governments have a policy of compulsory removal of 'Half-Caste' children it can not be claimed the children were removed for their own good.



Raven - do you know him? - is talking though his arse.
