surely, a western style of goverment would be quite alien to a non-european country, therefore would it not be un-expected if the local populace resisted such a goverment? Is this reason enough for the west to empose its will upon such countries?

I believe the real problem is, we the west, are tryin to make the rest of the world live to our standards and beliefs. This is not because we are right, it's happening because our goverments and the big business that are financing them, see profit in exploiting poorer and less well organised...

the New Testament tells us to go forth and spread the good news, that jesus the Messiah has come to save us. To be saved we only need follow the word off the Lord. Whats the difference between that message and the korans ?

yes, I meant wiring a lighting circuit as a ring. I was wondering if I could have more load on a ring rather than a radial circuit.

Can a lighting circuit be wired in a ring type circuit? If so, is there a maximum amount off load the circuit can take? :?

so separate 10mm earths to the water and gas mains would be suffecient?

I've been told by an electrician many years ago, that you can have as many 13amp sockets on a ring main as you want, providing each sockets load does not exceed 13amps. Is this still the case?

if my property has a 4mm continous earth cross bonding my water pipes to the boiler and water stop cock, do i need to return the earth back to the consumer unit(like a ring main)? :?

:D cheers damocles, that makes things a bit clearer. Does anybody know who is responsible for the tails from the suppliers fuse. If they need changing, is it the householders responsibility or the suppliers?
