    As Ean said... from memory it got a little heated last time...... this is one of those topics that many people have pretty passionate opinions on....

    Let's see if we keep it respectful of others opinions this time > I'd rather be reading and contributing than wearing my mod hat.

    Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most

    Ayers Rock belongs to ALL Australians not just one politically and racially motivated interest group. When 1% of these people actually get a job and contribute to this nation I will take an interest in what they think/want.

    Let the cards fall where they may.

    Well it'd be pretty disrespectful to go climbing up the outside of a church and you'd get nicked for that.

    It also seems pretty pointless. Surely the most dramatic/best thing to look at round there is Uluru itself and you can't see it if you're standing on it.

    You can actually climb many churches including the Vatican.

    They claim only 16% of visitors were climbing Ayres Rock.

    Out of the 84% how many were elderly, not fit enough etc.

    Not saying I would climb it, just seems that minority groups seem to have a disproportional say in everything these days.
    Cheers

    Well you climb them with the permission of the groups who hold it sacred. I wouldn't fuss if the Pope decided that climbing the Vatican should stop.

    Yes we have, and it's the same people that said it's there for all Australians, the difference from where I sit is the one person who insinuated that the entire Aboriginal population should get a job and contribute. Which we also covered. And that comment is racist.

    It's an old argument, the decision has been done - I argued to keep the last thread open despite being offended because it was a debate and it was in the context of whether they would be closing it.

    You can't climb it soon, it's closed as should this thread. Pointless ****.
