I never said "Arabs are ugly." I said that the dog was very good-looking. You assume that dogs are uglier than humans, but I think dogs are beautiful.
Well in that case I'm sure your mother in law appreciates being likened to a Mastiff ;)
Miracles still do happen. God kicked Allah down the stairs, and saved a little girl ;)
Such a sweet puppy! (These people are totally insane.)
So what? You never heard of a homely sister, and a cute sister?
What? Are you suppose to be FreeRepublic's UN observer? Gotta make sure everyone is equally insulted, even if you have to beatify barbarians to do it?
You need to find out what "get a life" means before advising others to do so.
I stated a historical fact, and you freaked out...
Sorry you are so hyper-sensitive.
This Mastiff is much cuter than my mother in law. More even than my mother.
Not necessarily; do Asian Muslims eat dog?
Interesting, since cats are the one domestic animal that definitely was extant there/then that is NOT mentioned in the Bible.
That has to say something about ol' Illiterate Moe and his rambling (purported) writings.
I don't know why, and it makes no sense, but their "prophet" really had an obsessive hatred for dogs.
I don't know why, and it makes no sense, but I really have a love for dogs.
I've met more then alot of arabs and Israelis.
Some of Israelis do look arabic, and some, if not alot, look like they came straight from England or some european country.
Most arabs do look arabic, though I have met a couple who did not.
As for the whole "who is ugly" thing, thats just a matter of someones personal taste.
Never the less, the average layperson should generally be able to tell the differance between someone of arabic decent and someone who is jewish.
Going with the greater numbers, there are more jews who look european then look arabic, while there are more arabs who look arabic then look european.
Arabs aren't a monolith either...
From what I understand, a Gulf Arab looks nothing like a Lebanese Arab, or a Syrian.
I agree beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but to me it's like a Honduran saying Guatemalans are ugly...when they look quite similar to each other.
Some how, some way, his own personal feelings regarding dogs and cats just got involved in his religion.
I do remember some kind of referance to him having a woman stoned for killing a cat, and his, eventually made some kind of exception for "working dogs". Though, considering the time frame then, I have no idea what that means, and Mohammad himself doesn't explain it.
Who knows, maybe a dog bit him as a kid and he held a grudge, either way, he really really hated them.
I like dogs, I don't like cats, but its not something I would become obsessed with or make part of a religion or something.
There could be alot of reasons why he hated dogs (he was nuts, a dog bit him, maybe a dog peed on his food, etc) but the whole love of cats and enemy of dogs thing is weird.
The only thing I have ever heard from a muslim about it, is they dogs are dirty, and thats pretty much it.
That bitch!!!!!
The folks who are lebanese don't look arab in any sense.
Ralph Nader is the son of lebanese immigrants.
Several former senators were of arabic decent (though none of them were muslim).
That said, from what I have seen (not to mention also been told by folks who go to Israel), the "palestinians" and the jews over there can tell who is a jew and who is a palestinian generally.
A light skinned person who goes into the occupied terrotories, is generally assumed to be a jew or european.
I think a better analogy then Hondurans and Guatemalans might be Polish (slavic) and French (or anglican).
Same as his personal feelings about Jews, women, and how to wipe also 'just got involved' in his religion.
"Islam is a cult of murders firmly ensconced it the 7th century who have done nothing of value for thousands of years. If there wasn't oil in the middle east there would be no western interest there. Personally I would rather pay three dollars a gallon for domestically produced gasoline and let the followers of mohammed further devolve back into chimps.
Any religion that calls for the stoning of a human deserves to be extinguished with extreme malice."
Did the girl call for the stoning of a human being? No, she didn't. If anything she'd be the one receiving the stoning. So what are you talking about. Please explain.
Islam deserves to be extinguished with "extreme malice"? So by when should we set up gas chambers?
What ever it takes.
3000 Americans were murdered in the name of islam on one day.
Or have you forgotten?
