why is it that writers write but fingers don't fing, grocers don't groce and hammers don't ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, why isn't the plural of booth beeth? One goose, 2 geese. So one moose, 2 meese? One index, 2 indices?

I am not asking this question to be fascetious or belittling; I just want to know why everytime I take a whiff of a Muslim, I feel like barfing. It is an odd mixture of spices, body odor, and something that is straight-up funky. I know the spices in their food are pungent, but this should not justify their odors (my heritage has pungent spices too but I keep it in the kitchen). I especially smell this stench on muslim women from Africa. What is the deal?

Just because" Khaatam ol Nabiin"(which there is different points of view in interpreting the word: Khaatam), While there is in Quran implications about prophets coming continuously to guide the man:
A'araaf, 35
Baghareh, 38

And it is said that: for every group (including Islam) there is an ending and Islam is a middle group:
A'araaf, 34
Baghare, 142

"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say unto me, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then I will profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." Matthew 7:21-22

"...he that doeth the will of my Father..." makes clear that faith in grace is not enough, that to achieve heaven you must also do works that are in accordance with the will of the Father.

How do you justify a faith in grace alone when Jesus makes clear your works must be in accordance with the Word to attain heaven?

"Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect." Matthew 5:48

Is he holier than Jesus, or did the clergy who added his epistles to the NT have more of a reason to keep the laity from expecting the clergy to be perfect/complete as they are called upon in Matthew 5:48?

"Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect."

NEWS BRIEF: "Bush Signs Terror Interrogation Law", AP Breaking News, October 17, 2006

"WASHINGTON (AP) -- President Bush signed legislation Tuesday authorizing tough interrogation of terror suspects and smoothing the way for trials before military commissions, calling it a 'vital tool' in the war against terrorism ... With the bill I'm about to sign, the men our intelligence officials believe orchestrated the murder of nearly 3,000 innocent people will face justice," Bush said. A coalition of religious groups staged a protest against the bill outside the White House, shouting "Bush is the terrorist" and "Torture is a crime." About 15 of the protesters, standing in a light rain, refused orders to move. Police arrested them one by one."
