    What makes you think the other festivals are less holier? Please elaborate.

    one to 74 whip slash not more in the place she/he done this crime. in this case Muslims and Non-Muslims are equal I guess and this fine worked for both.

    Fasting for Ramadan makes Muslim babies grow up to be stupid. “Rates of adult disability are roughly 20 per cent higher, with specific mental disabilities showing substantially larger effects."

    Oh... you must not be familiar with Ashura! It's fun for the whole family.

    And you agree with that, yeah? And people say islam is a primitive, violent, opressive cult. Allah knows where they got that idea from :rolleyes:

    This is a rule made by their government its not in Islam. Here in my country during Ramzan all non muslims are free to do what they want and sadly in my school there were many christians who used to tease us by showing food and drinks while we were fasting.

    if you read my first post in this thread didn't make this question I guess.

    I don't get fast as majority of Iranian. I think getting fast isn't good for healthy especially in such hot weather.
    anyway I haven't seen any rational reason to get fast.

    just curious, if a Muslim eat or drink in Ramadan daylight in public there, what should be your reaction? I mean your society and law?
    some Islamic counties have law in this case but don't know about Pakistan?

    Seriously people, how brain washed are you by religion as to go through a month of this bull and enjoy it. How can you respect a god that demands this of you? Why would a loving god ask you to do this? Try taking some accountability for your life, you actually might enjoy it. Pssst, it's OK to have fun.

    Yeah, "a spiritual overhaul", because eating is evil. What a crock of shiite!

    There are many who don't fast including the kids for them its not necessary to fast until they are 12 years old so we can't force them not to eat in front of us and there is a large number of christians and hindus here too so in a country like Pakistan they cant impose bans like they do it in Iran because there is a very less percentage of non muslims there.

    thanks for you response although didn't answer my question. Maybe you didn't encounter with such condition at all or it is meaningless for you, so that's OK.
    in Iran if you see a person is eating/ drinking or smoking in public areas be sure that is Muslim, never heard or saw a non-Muslim broken fast in public areas, maybe because they don't dare that.
    Mullahs tell that girls from 9 and boys from 15 have to get fast. 12 years old for girls and boys?

    I overheard a shop owner saying half his staff have to be off during ramadan because they are weak through malnutrition. it's hardly a surprise that islamic countries never amount to anything.

    Muslims fasting during ramadan is cool with me.. why should I concern myself with your beliefs?.. you have yours, I have mine.. but what annoys me is that you people have a problem with us eating in front of you.. apparently you get tempted.. Is that the extent of your will power? Now I know why you get your women to wear burkhas...

    Is there anything you can say which doesn't display your extreme hate for Islam?
