Could we maybe start up a new Covid thread? This is a non-covid thread after all.

I share your concerns, however it's best in it's own thread rather than clogging up this one.

Yeah sorry for not letting you run the forum

I'm literally one of the moderators. I'm going to take it as a compliment to how I don't abuse that as a compliment, instead of a comment on your ignorance.

What's going on in China etc is relevant.   

What's going on in China is relevant. You continuing your rants against Patel and Deepti isn't.

The thread is called Non Covid News...but if China protests do escalate and the trigger is zero covid policies then we can't not talk about it I guess...it's you know, when it starts descending into usual crap and then I get triggered...

I wonder what the difference would be if the question asked if you practice a religion rather than identify

Its actually "white British" so wouldn't include say the Polish. As far as i can see the majority of the world is probably more religious than we are so its unlikely we import many atheists. Is the religious drop off more religious oldies dying and being replaced with young atheists?

Surely at some point white people won't exist...   surely mixing continues to the point where its practically impossible 😛 

Yes and no as we are all descended from Africa. Skin pigmentation is nature basically trying to find a balance between vitamin D production and skin cancer so if those new people stay in the far northern hemisphere long enough their ancestors should turn white again .
