    Lower level of my data center.. Not really what I would call a basement.. Roomy though...

    Grab has been here only a couple of months and is at 8.48 post/day
    I've been here 4 years and am at 9.17/day...

    Who's running up the post count? You manage to maintain a high post count even in between bans..

    Honor killing is horrible, but somehow it's not limited to Islam only.
    In India you will get to know about fathers killing their daughters (And even sons) for falling in love with a guy or girl they don't approve of. And it happens in every community and religion. Hindus, Sikhs and Muslims.

    I was reading the newspaper this morning and found a news that a father killed his daughter as well as her lover because the lover was of some other caste. Few days ago a Sikh family killed their daughter and burnt her corpse for the same reason.

    May be closed mindset about the family honor is the reason for these kind of killings?

    Oh brother! Why do you put the blame on religion when it is the culture that is to be blamed! I am defending all religions here, not just Islam. Religion doesn't teach to to kill, it is the closed minded, barbaric culture that teaches the concept of honor killing.

    It's the damned Canadians! Blame Canada!

    The only solution -- all of Canada must submit to the Religion of Peace!

    God bless first class ignorance. Millions of people from the Middle East are Christians my friend.

    Millions of people from the Middle East are in fact Christian. :)

    Allah is the exact Arabic translation for God. Regardless of what religion you follow, the Arabic translation for God is Allah.

    I'm a bit confused by this statement of yours.

    Did I claim that no Middle Easterners were Christians?

    You quoted a snippet of text where I specifically differentiated between Arabs and Muslims. Perhaps you just need to read my post again?
