This post is only for those who are familiar with the issue I'm talking about.The arabic word for 'virgin', could as mean 'dates', as in the fruit.So if you think logically, wherever 72 'virgins' are mentioned, it is probably a mistranslation, and should be 'dates'. It makes more sense, since dates are quite significant in Islam.Sorry, I edited this...I really don't want to debate about Islam anymore

A man who rapes, according to the laws of Islam is supposed to be sentenced to death. Rape is much less frequent in Islamic countries. OK...you're going to laugh at this but the Islam word for 'virgin' has multiple meanings. It can also mean 'dates'. Therefore, the verses from the Koran which claim that a man will have 72 virgins in heaven, could actually have the true meaning of 72 dates. 'Dates' as in the fruit, lol.

Thank you salamgkero!! You're answer is exactly what I've been trying to say all along The Vegetarians at my school actually discriminate against me. Well put it this way...In my school the very 'clever' people study together. The very 'clever' people in my school are almost all vegetarians apart from me and a couple of other kids. I show my concern for the world through taking pride in my science lessons. However the vegetarians tell me that if I loved the world so much, then I wouldn't kill and torture animals for food. They call me 'fake' and it really gets on my nerves. How could they say such mindless things?

CLEAR: This is a topic against vegetarianism (I don't see a problem in that)Think about it...If the chickens were as strong and intelligent as us, then they would probably be killing us as wellI know chickens can't eat us, but you're missing the point. If any of the species were the most 'intelligent', then they would take advantage of the 'less intelligent' species, like we do for food. Who knows what the chickens would have needed us for!Another point:If I'm just going to sit there all day like an animal, with no actions or thoughts, I might as well not exist. I might even want to die, but not know how to. Anything without a purpose should be used to advantage.Okay, maybe I sound a little crazy and unshameful to all of you vegetarians, but every species is in competition. If we are classified as the most intelligent, we should take advantage of this privilege, like any species would and use the animals we need to for food. We need to find peace amongst the human species first, then talk about the rest. You see all these divisions of race, religion and also 'veg' and 'non-veg'. Its ridiculous, we should respect eachothers decisions. I hate being cursed by the vegetarians everytime I walk down the street. I am against animal cruelty, but turning vegetarian won't stop it. We need a more common-sense approach to stop the cruelty!

Well since I am Pakistani, my parents have told me how great Bhutto was. When she was elected, she had my father's salary double! Yes, double.As for her death, she died for her country. She felt the need to come to her country and if she took the risk then it is evident how much she loved her country. Think about it. Theres always a risk when you cross a road, but sometimes you just have to. She did everything she could for her country, and that I truly respect.We can't blame her for her own death. It was bound to happen one day and it is not like she wanted to die anyway.Lets lift the blame off her and think of her as a heroin

Hi, my name is Mehreen and I will graduate from HS too in about 3 months. When I go to college I'm going to study science and maths for A levels.Computers are interesting, maybe I could consider it once I'm older because my life has a set routine right now =[i also like history and creative writingOccasionally, when I am bored/unhappy/happy, I write poems to express myself.

How about we choose the 'hottest' woman in the world, who hasn't had any plastic surgery done to her face?That excludes most that I knowMaybe we haven't seen this special girl yet

Let me tell you one thingIt is those RACIST people who hate America, and there are RACIST Americans (also), who hate people from other Countries.It all goes round in circles, but there are exceptions to rules. There are also peaceful people in America, and peaceful people outside America.I used to be afraid whether there was racism against Asians in America

Believe me, this is not much of problem.I tend to stare straight through ones eyes when I am communicating with them. Some people get scared, while others think I like them. The worst is when people break out smiling or laughing. Maybe it is because nobody thinks I'm serious. But when I do give eye contact whilst someone is talking to me, they think of it as a little too 'extreme'. Don't worry if you can't give direct eye contact. You're not supposed to do it for a long time anyway. Give them eye contact for a few seconds when you're talking to someone/someone is talking to you. When you can't take it any longer, look around the room to give the illusion that you are thinking about what they are saying. And as long as you are really thinking, your response will be much better than just an 'eww'. Lol.Good luck!From a person with the opposite problem

I love Pakistani food. Nice and Spicey

Believe me, being popular hurts so bad. You will probably never concentrate on your work. I had to leave and prioritise my education, which led to a 100% score in Physics. Something I thought I would never get! PS I'm not boasting, I'm just proving how beneficial it can be if you don't turn to popularityHowever, if you still desire to be very popular, I suggest that you look your best and leave your unpopular friends behind. Then when you are majorly popular, you can hang around with them again, without anyone getting in the way

Lol, well I still had to learn how to find the nth term of a cubic sequence, so there wasn't much point in copying anyway.Me and my friend discussed it over break-time, and we figured it out. It took about 4 A4 sized papers though lol =](even though the above equation was correct, google searches are usually junk)

I read a book once, and there was a character by the name of 'Kensuke'

Wow. I'm amazed. In such a short period of time? Do you mind if I take the 'acid trip' logo and print it on a bag I have to make for GCSE textiles? I won't be making money, I'll just need a design idea. For educational purposed, if you like.P.S I love abstract things as well, in fact, I have a band and our name consists of the word 'abstract'
