Brisbane boxer Omar Shaick has been suspended for two years after refusing to give a urine sample because of his religious beliefs.

This case really opens a minefield of litigation - I suspect he didn't want to do the test for other reasons.

serves him right for believing in some stupid F****** religion as all religion is total F****** bullshit. theres no god no allah its all made up nonsense and if hes that F****** stupid to have any sort of religious beliefs then ive got F*** all sympathy for him.

I'm not religious, but if I were you I'd retract this because you're going to piss quite a few people off mate.

no way jose there is no such thing as GOD its made up nonsense just like the tooth fairy. If some idiot is that stupid they beleive in any form of religion then thats there problem and they need to wake up and smell the coffee. Religion is all about control.

I'm not disagreeing with you...but religious or not, it's a pretty strong opinion to force on somebody and I know there are religious people on this board. You're opening yourself up for a world of hate here.

I'm just telling it like it is. If some religious loony hates me because of that then fine. But ive always been an atheist and have no time for any form of religion.

right firstly there is no such thing in the muslim belief system that says you cant do a urine test so this boxer is taking piss(haha u like that :P)

2ndly Seanie you have a right to be an atheist and i aint no religious loony i dont go to church or anyother religious place of worship but as far i was aware this is a boxing forum
Not a place fro someone to try and shove thier beliefs on someone else
And if there was a thread on here from a religious person spouting there beliefs ppl would say something
well u are doin the same thing IMO your forcing your views on everyone else
just because u dont believe in religion does not give u the right to call those who do stupid or slag ppl off for it
So if you wanna hate ME now for SAYING IT HOW IT IS then thats fine too !!!
I have no religion either but it aint yours or my buisness wat other ppl believe in

#18 Kat. I was trying to make the point that this was just creating controversy for no reason. I like this forum because everyone tends to work hard at being respectful of others, and this came across as a tad disrespectful to me.
