Where Was Jesus Born? A lifelong unchurched man suddenly develops a vague religious urge and decides to join a church--any church. So he sets out to find one. His first stop is a Roman Catholic church where he asks what he has to do to join. The priest mentions diligent study and the affirmation of the Nicene and Apostles' Creeds, then--just to see how much the man knows--asks him where Jesus was born. "Pittsburgh," he answers. "Get out!" cries the shocked priest.Next stop is a Southern Baptist church wher... Read More

Carbs are the main source of energy.. Carbs are broken down into glucose and released into the bloodstream. The speed in which it does this differs in Simple and COmplex Carbs. Complex carbs are called 'complex' because they have a complex molecular structure. Simple are called simple because they have a simple structure (doh). so it takes longer to break down complex carbs and its quicker to break down simple carbs. When you eat carbs, they are released into your bloodstream as glucose or stored in the fo... Read More

Is Dave Chappelle really Muslim? if so why does he curse so much on his shows?
September 6, 2005 at 12:12amYeah just the fact that he converted is a great accomplishment on its own. I can't pass any judgement on him. We may claim to be good people who live moral lives but nobody kn...

Seriously I know a lot of us blame IRC for cr@p that happened in their lives. But did it actually make you grow as a person or harm you? You skipped a grade or got kicked out of college? or what?

On the authority of Abu Ruqayya Tamim ibn Aus ad-Dari (may Allah be pleased with him), the Prophet (PBUH) said: Religion is sincerity. We said: To whom? He said: To Allah and his Messenger and to the leaders of the Muslims and their common folk. It was related by Muslim * The arabic word Nasiha (sincerity) has a variety of meanings, the most common being "good advice', which is obviously unsuitable for the above context. It also gives the meaning of "doing justice to a particular person or situation... Read More

When a (courteous) greeting is offerd you, meet it with a greeting more couteous, or at least of equal courtesy. God takes careful account of all things. Sura 4, ayah 86 ...But if you enter houses, salute each other - a greeting of blessing and purity as from God. Thus does God make clear the Signs to you: that you may understand. Sura 24, ayah 61

Salaam all. I am in my last year of residency, and am in the process of looking for both a one-month international elective and a posting for next year (thinking of msf, imc, etc.) Does anyone out there have any advice of a good resident elective that is not bench-research oriented? Amina

Any thoughts on how one could bypass government corruption in attempting to make changes in Pakistan? Is there a limit to what the private sector can achieve? What kinds of things would all y'all out there like to do for Pakistan someday? :)
July 15, 2005 at 2:44pmI'd like to see a change in the Hadood Laws, specifically the Zina Ordinances. As well as a change for the better with those - oh what are they called? - tribal courts that sen...

Source : www.americanchronicle.com Author : Amal Chaaban There is a new front in the war on terror. It is now the front of Radicals vs. Moderates. The moderates will win. For far too long, moderate Muslims have stood by wringing their hands as one psychopath after another declares that he is going in the way of jihad (or at least his version of jihad). The voice of moderates is being drowned out by the screaming rants of what I call the fascist faction of I... Read More

ok, so alcohol is forbidden in islam... but so is pre-marital sex and a myriad of other things. yet, there seems to be a bigger stigma against alcohol than anything. Example: i had one of my few muslim friends over with a few of the christian and buddhist friends and i had alcohol here (I no longer drink btw) - mainly wine - for my friends and my grandparents. the muslim friend felt so uncomfortable (even though the most someone drank was 2 glasses in a few hrs time) that he left soon after and he was upset all ...

What makes a long distance relationship a more interesting option than a homegrown one. Is it the allure of the exotic? Do UK/ US/ eastern men/ women really come across as that much better than their local counterparts? or are we all suffering from a bad case of 'all men/ women are horrible' and hoping for greener grass elsewhere without realising it..
September 14, 2006 at 1:28amBeen in one before. Important issue with the distance is trust. Being far away as I was from this person, what made it fall apart was that she couldn't trust me. Felt I w...
