We have a guy at work who thinks sending us 30 links he got from google somehow represents good research. I see the same stuff going on here. Is the stuff impossible to summarize?

Just wondering. They seem like good company, and if the conspiracy theorists are right, joining them would mean being right in the powerhouse - should be interesting?
Any opinions?

The French law prohibits Muslims, Christians, and Jews from wearing headscarves, large crosses, or skullcaps. So, on the surface, it seems as if it is not discriminatory among followers of various religions. President Jacques Chirac said that this law is “meant to protect the country’s strictly secular state from the perceived threat of Islamic fundamentalism.” The headscarf is not a sign of Islamic fundamentalism. Throughout the Muslim world, average Muslim women cover their heads in obedience to religious instructions. Do you agree that this law is discriminatory against Muslims only—and Muslims women in particular—since Christians are not required by their faith to wear crosses, nor are Jews required to wear the Star of David. To say the ban includes these Christian and Jewish symbols, too, is misleading.

I've been looking at research into portions of the human genome that is made up of 'fossilised' viruses called endogenous viruses. These viruses existed a long time ago but managed to work their way into our ancestors' genes before mutating into a basically broken and non-infectious form. The recent research I was reading pertained to their actual positive actions during pregnancy, these ineffective viruses are thought to help the placenta and immune system develop.

How do young earth creationists take this information? I'm not so much disputing the fact that it could take millions of years (well over 6000) for such for such retroviruses to be taken into our genes, I'm more interested in the opinion of whether it was God's intention for us to have the remnants of old viruses in our genes.

I'm interested in learning more about Islam. People seem to interpret it all in their own way, and the government and media both have their own perspective that i'm not willing to trust. So, i want to read it for myself. What do i have to know? Is there a good english translation of it that is accurate? Where would i get it?
