Bendigo is in the goldfields - beautiful old buildings, unbelievable gardens, right into sport, really good looking place.
Very multi cultural - stong Indigenous history, huge Chinese history (museum, gardens, joss house etc etc), heaps of Karen refugess, biggest Buddhist Temple and Centre so u can see it very multi cultural
What we dont have is a mosque. What the Muslims are planning to build is a mosque.
OMG = Shame Job = people are protesting, I am so embarrassed by these people. Why these people do this? Are they ignorant or what? Or are they really truly scared these Muslims (Who live here already) are all of a sudden gonna turn into terrorists cos they have a mosque? This is very weird.................. they pray now but at the Uni, there be a prayer room, whatever thats called, they want there own place.
So I ask these people - "What exactly is the problem here?" And I get stuff like "terrorists, go home to their own country (When they say this I lift an eyebrow and stare at em but they miss it ofcourse)
Im not Muslim, I dont even know a Muslim but I dont understand one bit why we protest against people wanting a church, this embarrasses me LOL
Do you people have mosques near you? Is this a big deal?

Fair enough... I made a specific reference to your ID so yeah....I probably would have reacted in a similar way. Glad we were able to sort this out. x
