Happens ALL the time when you specialty is databases.

Typically you'll get a slice of "test" data then when that checks out you get the LIVE data to play with. This goes back atleast 10-15 years ago. As far a I know, nothing has changed.

We'd have a ball with the live data. We'd look up people i a particular income and check out their profile. I know of a few that wrote down information and tried to "date" them. They'd call on a pretense and some actually dated them.

Well there you go!!

If it is a virtue to lie in Islam (Taqiyya), how can anyone, even a Muslim, know the truth behind Islam?

Can there be honor among thieves? Can there be truth in a religion built on lies and deceit?

My #249 was a weak attempt at humor. (It's sort of an inside joke for Jews.)

Thanks for the information.

"I don't believe it was random,"

No---- that kind of crime never is. The koran is very explicit on what must be done to those who dare to speak the truth about islam. The muslims killing these kids and their parents were just doing as commanded.

Just imagine if this was the other way around!

Has any Muslim family around the world had their throats slit?? It just happens by one side, Martyrs for Christ. Their Mansions are filled in heaven.

"The LARK Program:

A person wrote a letter to the White House complaining about the treatment of a captive taken during the Afghanistan war. Attached is a copy of a letter they received back:

The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue
Washington, D.C., 20016

Dear Concerned Citizen:

Thank you for your recent letter roundly criticizing our treatment of the Taliban and Al Qaeda detainees currently being held at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

Our administration takes these matters seriously, and your opinion was heard loud and clear here in Washington. You'll be pleased to learn that, thanks to the concerns of citizens like you, we are creating a new division of the Terrorist Retraining Program, to be called the "Liberals Accept Responsibility for Killers" program, or LARK for short. In accordance with the guidelines of this new program, we have decided to place one terrorist under your personal care.

Your personal detainee has been selected and scheduled for transportation, under heavily armed guard, to your residence next Monday. Ali Mohammed Ahmed bin Mahmud (you can just call him Ahmed) is to be cared for pursuant to the standards you personally demanded in your letter of admonishment.

It will likely be necessary for you to hire some assistant caretakers. We will conduct weekly inspections to ensure that your standards of care for Ahmed are commensurate with those you so strongly recommended in your letter.

Although Ahmed is sociopathic and extremely violent, we hope that your sensitivity to what you described as his "attitudinal problem" will help him overcome these character flaws.

Perhaps you are correct in describing these problems as mere cultural differences. He will bite you, given the chance. We understand that you plan to offer counseling and home schooling. Your adopted terrorist is extremely proficient in hand-to-hand combat and can extinguish human life with such simple items as a pencil or nail clippers. We do not suggest that you ask him to demonstrate these skills at your next yoga group. He is also expert at making a wide variety of explosive devices from common household products, so you may wish to keep those items locked up, unless (in your opinion) this might offend him.

Ahmed will not wish to interact with your wife or daughters (except sexually) since he views females as a subhuman form of property. This is a particularly sensitive subject for him, and he has been known to show violent tendencies around women who fail to comply with the new dress code that Ahmed will recommend as more appropriate attire. I'm sure they will come to enjoy the anonymity offered by the bhurka - over time. Just remind them that it is all part of "respecting his culture and his religious beliefs" - wasn't that how you put it?

Thanks again for your letter. We truly appreciate it when folks like you, who know so much, keep us informed of the proper way to do our job. You take good care of Ahmed - and remember...we'll be watching. Good luck!

Cordially...Your Buddy,"

dear Christ - what's going on in NJ?

[MarMema]

the family may have been targeted for death because of exchanges about religion in an Internet chat room.

Thank you for the ping. I am sickened.

Memory Eternal.

May God bless their souls.

What's going on in America?

"The Quran stands very firmly against taking human life," said noted Islamic author Zayn Kassam, chairwoman of the religious studies department of Pomona College in California. "If someone read a verse and used it to justify the killing of four people, I believe that person is unbalanced. ... There are very few Muslims who would support this sort of thing."

"Islam is a religion of peace."

If both of these quotes were true, Islam would have undergone a schism much like what occurred during the Reformation. The pressure to do so by peace loving Muslims would have been so great that the religious leaders of Islam would have been forced to publically condemn the worldwide brutality we have seen. Instead, the violence continues:
9-11 terrorism and the celebrating of the attacks
Continued violence against Christians in Indonesia
Continued violence against Christians in Africa
Continued violence in the ME directed against innocent women and children
The public viewing of barbaric beheadings In Iraq on Al Jazeera and other Muslim public venues
The killing of Margaret Hassan, an aid worker and a Muslim
The savage repression of people in Iran, in accordance with Sharia law.
Islamic clerics in Western countries such as Britain calling for the killing of westerners and the establishment of Sharia theocracies.

Not all Muslims are terrorists, but the ones who live peaceful lives are either passively enabling the terror, or acquiescing to it. Whether they do so out of pure fear, or because they see the extremists as a means to an end...namely, the establishment of a worldwide Islamic Sharia theocracy.. this remains to be seen.
