Okay, after double-checking my resources, I've realized that I misunderstood some of the content that I linked to in my last post. I'm sorry for misrepresenting things, naturalplastic. |

I'm back with more interesting information about modern Muslims. 1) Although Islam is usually associated with Arabs and African descendants, a growing number of people in the US with Latin American roots have embraced Islam over the years. 2) Many South Asians in New York City have also become Musli... |

How many nations do you know of that seem to have almost always tolerated the Jewish diaspora? The only places like that that I can think of are India, Ireland and South Korea. |

As a Jew myself, I was pretty surprised. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coat_of_arms_of_Croatia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coat_of_arms_of_Northern_Ireland http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coat_of_arms_... |

A while back, I remember getting an earache, the kind that made my ear too tender on the inside. I wasn't too sure what was causing it, since the only major thing I was doing with my ears was listening to stuff online with my headphones. Then it hit me: the problem WAS with my headphones.

Although some Muslims claim that the Quran justifies the theory of evolution, other Muslims aren't too comfortable with that scientific concept. Yes. The OP is being kinda inane and silly.

To play this forum game, you have to use uppercase Slavic letters to make Latin-alphabet words that have been flipped vertically. Kudos to anyone that makes a word that also counts as a legitimate word in a language whose alphabet uses Slavic letters! (Also, check out a similar thread about making b... |
