    We are a strange Nation



    We quite happily(bear with me) have a single woman living in sin as a PM,,
    but could you ever see OZ as a nation having one of the above?

    and yet the USA DEMANDS their Presidents be -upstanding go to church every sunday -happily married men,, but have opened a Joint Joint.

    its a funny old world.

    I'm also happy we dont make our pollies choose religous sides,,
    just one more thing they'd be "political' about,,

    we'd not only have conscience votes but religious votes

    Pedro, the older I get the more I realize just how strange a race we are, not just how strange a nation we are :-)

    Who was living in sin? That sounds pathetic to me. By whose judgement is sin determined?

    It's a common phrase in the english language. It means they were unmarried.
    I know a good english teacher I can refer you to if you require further help.

    OK then I ask the question....what is wrong or sinful about living together unmarried? My questions don't refer to my knowledge of English.

    Nothing is wrong with it, unless you're an American puritan.
    I think that was the point of the post. Americans have different moral values than Australians.
