Qur'an Lights Montenegro's Ramadan (75% Christian Country)

ISLAM ONLINE (QATAR) ^ | Hany Salah

[Bokababe]

A lot different Montenegro than when one of my great uncles ruled the place, and he used to have Muslim heads on stakes, displayed around the county!

By the way, here are Wikipedia's numbers for the place:

Ethnic composition according to the 2003 census:

Montenegrins (Orthodox Christian): 267,669 (43.16%)

Serbs (Orthodox Christian): 198,414 (31.99%)

Albanians (Muslim): 80,163 (13.03%)

Bosniaks (Muslim): 48,184 (7.77%)

Slavic Muslims: 24,625 (3.97%)

Croats (Roman Catholic): 6,811 (1.1%)

Roma , Egyptians & Ashkalis (Mixed): 2,826 (0.46%)

Nowhere near "half Muslim"!

How could you stand to have that a-hole up on the minaret wailing away five times a day. It would make you want to get a big ole gun and do a little target practice.

[Lukasz]

Bosniaks and Slavic Muslims separately? What is the difference? Biosniaks are Slavic Muslims.

I was just in Kotor, Montenegro last week, just for a day (a port call on a cruise ship). I didn't notice a significant Muslim presence there, in sharp contrast to my three days in Istanbul, where the prayers blare on loudspeakers several times a day and the restaurants were packed the minute the sun went down due to the Ramadan daytime fast.

Heart-warming story........
Makes me want to go find a Bacon Cheeseburger to help them celebrate.

[Bokababe]

The Bay of Kotor is a Christian area. Most of the Muslims are south near the Albanian and Kosovo borders.

This is my response to Islam on balkans- 155 NORA-B, Serbian self-propelled howitzer, best howitzer in the world!

[Bokababe]

"Makes me want to go find a Bacon Cheeseburger to help them celebrate."

Actually, makes me want to join Kronos & his Howitzer and have "a celebration" of my own! And I don't even live there -- I can only imagine what the people who do live there feel like!

And give your dog a good belly-rub. I've discovered this week that Muslims do not go near dogs--that Muslim taxi drivers won't pick up the blind with their guide dogs.

Four wives and no dog. Goes to explain why they're so mean.

[montyspython]

Dogs have a sixth sense about bad individuals, "evil" detectors, that's why Muslims avoid them.

[Nachum]

"Muslims gather twice a day to listen to the imam recite verses from Qur'an, especially that most of them do not know Arabic,"

Stupid is as stupid does...

No wonder they are nuts.......................

Just had a little chat with a Yemeni muslim who raved about BJ (clinton) and verbally murdered President Bush. He went on to say that 9-11 was caused by bombs placed in the towers by the US government and when I asked him where he got this paranoid information he said one of his profs had told him and it was true anyway. I know what I have to do tomorrow morning...maybe tonight.

They are here...being supported by their commie profs and we should all be very aware of that fact.

[Nachum]

They may be supported by commie profs, but that fellow would have invented another source if the commies did not.

[Banat]

Not all of them have accepted the name "Bosniak." Is a Muslim from Montenegro who has absolutely no ties to Bosnia a Bosniak?

Bosniaks are either ethnic Serbs or ethnic Croats, and some can trace their roots back to the Ottomans (i.e. they're Turkish).

This is the only case where the state is older than the people. All nation-states got their name from the founding ethnic group. i.e. Franks --> France; Serbs --> Serbia; Germans --> Germany; but Bosnia --> Bosniak.

[Banat]

Of all my profs, only one was pro-US. Some of the most anti-US profs actually came from the United States to teach here (Ontario).

One openly stated that he was a Marxist. (He's from Kentucky.) I found it inappropriate of him to have done so. 1) He should've kept it to himself 2) I don't like Marxism. I did get an A, but always felt very uncomfortable during his lectures.

It's usually the people who have no clue what it's like living in a communist state that are the most ardent Marxists.

[LjubivojeRadosavljevic]

['Of all my profs..., only one was pro-US..."]

Professors shouldn't be stating their political positions.

I know because I am a tenured faculty member in a statistics department at a major university. And, quite simply, I don't have time for it in the classroom...It's tough enough to get students to understand what a "p" value is.
