I have a real pet hate! People (especially English speakers) have a tendancy to refere to regional languages as dialects. this is especially prevalent when refering to languages from areas such as Asia Pacific and Sub-Saharan Africa where the Linguistic diversity can be very high! Geordie is a dialect of English, whereas Yoruba is certainly not a dialect of Hausa! or Illocano a dialect of Tagalog. I believe this mix-up began with the racist dis-regard shown by collonial powers for the ethnic diversities of 'their' colonies and for this reason, I find the mix up offensive! Anyone else agree with me, any fellow pedants out there?

Sahih Bukhari Narrated Qatada: Anas bin Malik said, "The Prophet used to visit all his wives in a round, during the day and night and they were eleven in number." I asked Anas, "Had the Prophet the strength for it?" Anas replied, "We used to say that the Prophet was given the strength of thirty (men)." And Sa'id said on the authority of Qatada that Anas had told him about nine wives only (not eleven). Volume 1, Book 5, Number 268.

where the 'BEEP' does this logic come from?

mmm, also moreover where the 'BEEP' does the creator come from?

surely it more believable that a universe cam from nothing, rather than a fully formed being that knows everything and decided to make some poxy humans cos he is lonely but then makes them live away from him, cos he is super sensitive and cant stand sin, and decided to die, but not die to change everything/nothing?

This would apply to kids in private, public, and home school settings.

What I mean by a world religion course is that they will be taught in the manner a religious studies course is taught in college. They will be given informative data about the most prominent religions and their beliefs including, but not limited to, Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Atheism, and even Satanism (sort of like History of Religions). This would not infringe the separation of church and state because it is being taught from a historical rather than a dogmatic/theological point of view as they do in public universities. I think as citizens of countries that give us wide ranges of options we should be informed about one of the most notorious and influencial ones, religion, so we can best choose the one that suits us.

Aside from fear from having kids think of themselves, which potentially may mean they won't believe as you, I don't see reason why not to implement this. Discuss!

Do you think the rich and powerful should come down to the earth with a bump?Do you not think they should get paid as normal people do.I am sick and tired of seeing hard working people working day in day out when the rich and powerful can sit on there bottoms all day,they have the best of the best and they look there noses down at normal people.I think it is wrong when they flash there stuff around and there is so many poor people around.

I'm not gay, and do not find anything appealing about the practice of sodomy. But if others do, and practice it in the privacy of their homes, how does it concern me, or infringe upon my rights?
Yet Muslims hate homosexuals so much that more than 4,000 alleged homosexuals have been killed by the sharia courts of Iran. Not all were convicted of homosexuality, admittedly, since a well-publicised case in 2005:
http://www.queerplanet.us/moxie/newscast/international/gay-teens-executed-in-ira.shtml
the sharia police have used the tactic of torturing the alleged gays into confessing to rape or other crimes. Why be so dishonest? If they believe killing gays is good, why the subterfuge?
