MOSQUE PLAN SPARKS TENSION IN COOLAROO (Weekly online, August 27)
■ I am a Shia
Muslim and I am against this idea. We can build our mosque anywhere
else but not next to a church; this will just create problems. Islam is a
religion of peace, not a religion of creating problems for others. I
request all brothers to solve this issue wisely and be peaceful and nice
towards our Christian brothers

When there is approval for these mosques to be built, the planning for
cars should be priority. The mosque in Meadow Heights near the shopping
centre brings too many cars to the area on Fridays. People park where
they shouldn’t, block other shopping-centre patrons in and if anyone
comments, they are verbally abused. I am not against mosques, but they
need to be built in the right area, not next to a church of another
faith.

NO FUN AS SCHOOL PLAYGROUNDS SHRINK (Weekly, August 20)
■ The playgrounds are not “shrinking”
but the number of children needing schooling is outpacing what’s
available. We are experiencing rampant rates of population growth –
justified by our “ageing population”. It’s young people who have longer
periods of economic dependency, and with jobs for young people becoming
scarcer, their dependency periods are getting longer and longer. We
should be removing the stigma from those over 40 in the workforce and increase productivity – not human resources.

■ The
government is in denial it’s spreading disease with its populate or
perish policies. Those who refuse their children the inoculation should
have the children taken away by docs because they are neglecting them.
