Trick question. There are almost no Muslims who are muscians because most Muslims believe music itself is evil. Those Muslims who dont believe this (most in the non-islamic states, like USA), still believe that most of the existing music is evil.

Islamic Source:

he heard the Prophet saying, "From among my followers there will be some people who will consider illegal sexual intercourse, the wearing of silk, the drinking of alcoholic drinks AND THE USE OF MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS, as lawful. And there will be some people who will stay near the side of a mountain and in the evening their shepherd will come to them with their sheep and ask them for something, but they will say to him, 'Return to us tomorrow.' ALLAH WILL DESTROY THEM DURING THE NIGHT and will let the mountain fall on them, and HE WILL TRANSFORM THE REST OF THEM INTO MONKEYS AND PIGS and they will remain so till the Day of Resurrection." http://www.islamicity.com/mosque/sunnah/bukhari/069.sbt.html#007.069.494v

Ok earlier I posted a statement about ways to stop gay bashing (See my "A better plan for Yahoo! to stop bashing" question) Alot of people stated something about freedom of speech against filtering bashers questions.
Well the law says yes you have freedom of speech but that does not included hurting other individuals and slandering them. Don't you agree that flitering for this reason is right?
Please express your opinions.

I've been on this site of ooo... iono..... 20 minutes and ive noticed so much hate and resentment on both sides of the fence. "Christians" why do you pass so much condemnation and judgment on the unbelieving instead on the of the Love of Jesus and his message hope? "Nonbelievers" why do you impose your beliefs on Christians and say so many hateful things when you cleary get offended when we do the same? Isnt that hypocritical? Why Hate each other?

A Muslim chemist at Lloyds Pharmacy in Thurcroft, Rotherham denied a 37 year old woman, the morning-after pill because of his 'religious beliefs'.
The woman said "I am a 37-year-old woman, not adaft girl who doesn't know what she's doing and the chemist has no right to tell me whether I can or can't take the pill. It's my choice not his. It is his religion not mine. He's adispensing chemist and his job is to dispense drugs.
The Royal Pharmaceutical Society of Great Britain allows this kind of behaviour.

Jesus spoke of a generation that would not pass before all things are fulfilled that usher in the End of this Age. This started in 1948 with Jerusalem becoming a nation..............

Is there any? Not trying to make the person fall in love with me, cos the person is still and already in love with me. But just need the love to be stronger to realise that we both are truly in love. Is there any spells to bring two separated loves back together?

I just think it's so rude when people "need" an answer to their "very serious" question and then who knows if they actually read the answers!
I understand there are some cases when all of the answers are so similar that the person might choose not to pick a best answer, but couldn't they pick the first one to get it right?

Maybe sometimes, NOBODY answers your question and the asker feels that noone deserves to be chosen best.

I've noticed that quite often, when a question goes to voting, the best answer chosen by voters is the first answer. (because nobody takes the time to read the rest?) So, does it bother you too?
