Everyone,
Just to clear something to all the people, Islam in Arabic(comes from the verb Isteslam) means "to Surrender" people who were forced to become muslims(they were asked to surrender, ""Surrender yourself to God"" -or to them so u'd become a slave- about that I don't know) ,but that's how the name of that religion became Islam.
Now lotta people try to lie about this Fact(the meaning of the name Fact) by teling people that it means (peace).
ISLAM IN ARABIC DOESN'T MEAN (PEACE) !!! and of course who would say it doesn't, since 75% of arabs are muslims.... and they wanna make it look good in the 21 century....and of course since people now are more open-minded and the competition among different religions and sometimes atheism is high, as well as the growing accusing of terrorisim is also worth mentioning.
what buggs me the most, that i see Muslims from non-arabic ethnics saying that on Tv. stations in Canada and lectuering people about the actual and the symbolic translation of the name...what do you know??!!...i mean, wouldn't be better if you take some language lessons and learn how to spell your name in arabic first.
(peace) in arabic means(salam) which is completly differnt word.
but i'd say if that's how allah named it 1500 years ago, accept it !!!, don't decoy it, unless you are accusing your god of missleading...i dono, don't get me wrong, i'm just saying !!
so Salam !!!
Here, kitty kitty...
The book "Infiltration" showed me another side of Islam and I can't accuse people of stereotyping an entire religion anymore after reading it.
Allow me to commend you on your wonderful writing skills.
Okie dokie. Thanks for your input.
A for effort; D- for performance. But keep trying!
Islam and their fake moon god and child rapist prophet can bite my sac.
Kewl Luca. Nice first draft!
Now I'd suggest a bit more research into the meaning of the term "submission" (vice "surrender")... and submission to whom and to what, as relates to Islamic religion.
Also revisit the use of capitalization.
Glad to see you've found a subject that interests you.
Shalom.
Maybe there should be a section of FR devoted to messages such as this. When a thought comes in someone's head and they just have to post it as a news article. Call it "Brain Farts".
Yes, I was going to say that "submission" is the usual translation.
This is a ch__ch. What's missing?
Go gettem tiger!
All children try to act like grownups.
Luca's attempt is not bad for beginners and it beats sitting at Play Station 2 or hanging out in some AOL chat room. Encouraging him to expand his research so he is better informed and more effectively expressive- should be encouraged by all of us!
hahaha...
dude, sorry for not meeting you standards, but yea, english happen to be my third language..and if i make mistakes I have my reasons...
but honestly, english is an easy language, if you ask me, i only learend it by watching movies...moreover, they don't talk perfect english in porn ones..
and i cannot careless about using CAPS.
about "submission" i don't have to do research dude, i just look it up the dictionary !!..but honestly what reserch you talking about?? , you obviously spent more time thinking about it.
like an old French saying "Sois belle et tais-toi"
meaning: be beautiful but shut-$$$ ...
thanks
Luca, I have the feeling that english isn't your mother tongue.
Looks like I was right.
