freedom of expression and to wear what we want. It is not neccersary to cover from tip to toe. I love living in the UK, and would not move anywhere else (apart from a few countries) simply because I would be given up my rights as a woman. We get treated better here than alot of other places in the world, even countires that are predominantly muslim. Yes I agree there are some people that don't like our religion but thats life, everyone has their own opinions get on with it. We can't pick at every little thing, we should just get on with it......Who agrees??

PS.The purpose of the Q was that alot of people seem to say that muslims dont amdmit their flaws.

What do you think of this quote? I read it and it struck a cord with me...

"Truth is usually one step beyond one's vision and two steps beyond one's comfort."

Are there "rules" about giving joint gifts? For example, is it okay for my husband and I to give one gift to my sister-in-law (or mother-in-law, brother, etc.), even though she usually gives gifts to both of us separately?

It appears that the days of foreign languages may be limited in England as debate continues as to whether they should be removed from the curriculum altogether. Currently students in English schools have to study a foreign language - usually one of French, German or Spanish.
My personal view is that, actually, languages should be part of the core of modern teaching and, in England, should be taught in much greater detail than they actually are at the moment. I studied German at school; I also studied Spanish for one year. Yet I felt that the basis of teaching these languages was (and no doubt still is) largely based on set phrases rather than the understanding of the grammar and the amassing of vocabulary. More should be done to give students a chance to understand how the language works.
A second language is invaluable and greater emphasis should be placed thereon. There may even be a case to start teaching languages at a much lower age than the current age of 11.
Do you agree?

I have heard that it started at San Quinten prison as a sign that you were available for homosexual activity. Is this true? If so, why would anyone who isn't gay want to display themselves in this manner?

Professional complainer and shakedown artist Jesse Jackson is in the news again. Today in California, along with black congresswoman Maxine Waters, he has called for an official "end" to the use of the word "n i gg e r" by ALL people. This of course is the SAME Jesse Jackson who referred to NYC as "hymie town" (a racist slur against Jews) and the same Jesse Jackson who admitted on "60 Minutes" that as a teenage cook he used to spit in the food of white patrons (a racist ACTION against whites.) Now he has called for all people to stop using the word "n i gg e r." WIll he demand that this ban start with black rap and hip-hop artists who use the term ad naseum? Will it include black youth that refer to one another by that termn daily? Of will he follow his racist roots and only require non-blacks to follow this dictum? Will the double standard enjoyed by blacks in America be challenged or will the status quo of two laws (one for whites and an easier one for blacks) be followed?

Since the earth have been around for over 2 billion years and modern man maybe a few million years. My theory is that religion was born when man became acutely concious of his own mortality and self, a few thousand years ago (unlike animals) and had to come up with a explanation for his exsitance and what happens after his death. Any other explanation or theory please beside the simplistic it came from god.
