I’m trying to establish a symbolic ritual to commemorate the Last Spaghetti Dinner (LSD) and I’ve spent hour pouring over the photo record but I still can’t figure some things out.

Can you help me out with the elements of the ritual?

Is the Finger of Friendship (Lucky Fokker) extended before or after the meal?

Are meatballs and Jack Daniels suitable as sacraments?

Should we have little cups for the Jack Daniels or just have people pull straight from the bottle?

Should the meatballs be hot or cold?

Am I missing anything?

Whatever the extremists are doing around the world is cruel and inhumane and it disturbs me as a Muslim as much as it disturbs everyone else. But why do people generalize as all Muslims being like that? Why do people think that Islam preaches that?

Don't they read about rapes, murders, kidnappings in the West every day. Columbine, Oklahoma City bombings, Sniper attacks...nobody characterizes those to any religion then why is everything else being characterized as Islam.

Serious answers only. Do your research before you answer and I dont mean just looking at one website that portrays Islam as a hateful religion but read books..be biased.

Can voodoo spells and curses be done with just a photo of someone and is it for real or does it only work if the one who is being cursed believes in it?

I am trying to find proof that they are the same person. It is no surprise to me that there is no historical reference of Jesus (a carpenter) using a hand-saw to cut wood. Could it be that he was too busy Karate chopping the wood in half, and had no need to use the saw?

The Quran was revealed to Muhammad, a man of 40 at that time that was known for his good character, he was also known as the 'Honest and trustworthy'. He was an orphan, and no one taught him to read or write. One day he returns from his meditiation shiverring, very scared, and telling his only wife about the angel that came to him and told him to 'Read, Read in the name of your lord that has created, Created man from a clot (of blood)...' As the time passes and more of the Quran is revealed, the arabs are fascinated with the Quran, which lead to many of them becoming Muslims. The style of the Quran is very unique and beautiful, it makes sense and rhymes too. The Quran has details about things that happened and things that are to happen. For example, the Quran narrates about Jesus and his mother Mary,peace be upon them. Many other Prophets are also narrated about in the Quran. In the Quran God tells us he sent the Book to Jesus and Moses, and those who believed in it are of the pious...

ok. "Christian" is your keyword tht you look 4 to get on here and vent at 'non-christians' (ppl who don't follow your creed & say what you want to hear); & that includes your saying our Q is due to anger, or frustration, or hatred. Well, once again, you're are WRONG. i.e., just to be sick of being on the receiving end of your wrath and indignation, is just that...bng sick of it--it doesn't mean anything else. Jesus never intended for his followers to be that way...so all of you Rntrs+Rvrs---DO as you PREACH or you will REAP what you SOW. *END* (I will not be responding to this---or picking an A or getting notices). Non of U are worth the time. (talk amounst urselves).

Why are christians allowed to use their religious writings (the bible) as "proof" of their god's power and existence BUT I can't use religious writings (ancient egyptian hieroglyphs which predate christianity by thousands of years) as proof of the power and existence of Egyptian gods?

Why do you risk being cast into the Tomb of 10,000 snakes?

Why is it that followers of my religion, built the greatest structure ever known to man (the great pyramid) thousands of years before jesus (who was a carpenter) had the technology to build and live in a "mud hud"?
