CHAPTER SIX - "Hand of Glory or Gore-y?" There was actually a hand in the pit that *we* dug up. I wasn't sure how to feel, it might have been cool. But, we'd found it after thinking about how strange it was that Mo was absent for two weeks. No it couldn't be. I mean the hand clearly belonged to somebody of Afro-Caribbean origin, but it couldn't be hers, could it? I don't want to get over-paranoid (okay, even more paranoid that I already am), but I'm now starting to think that it could be hers. The teacher had now arrived at the scene. He was silent, probably scared. How would somebody responsible act in a situation like this? What was he thinking? What was he going to do? * "Okay, class." Mr Butter paused again. He couldn't believe it. There was a disembodied hand in the playground. At school, during a lesson, during *his* lesson. That didn't happen everyday He'd joked about when one of his colleagues set off a fire alarm after burning a jelly-baby, he'd forgotten to adjust the sensitivity settings. But this was major, people would remember this. Maybe he would appear in the Newspaper again. He remembered when his collection of his weird and wonderful (mostly just weird) objects had got him an article in the local newspaper. Maybe he could add the hand to his collection, which included: a one-eyed pig's stuffed head, a jackalope --antler-headed rabbit, a shrunken head and a real piece of the original TARDIS. He already had a "hand of glory", not the Harry Potter one. The real hand of an executionee, made into a candle. Apparently, when it was lit it would keep everybody in that house asleep, and would help get in a intuder. So where does JK get her ideas from? But maybe he shouldn't take the hand, he didn't know who it belonged to. It was probably against some rule or other, health and safety probably, though he doubted that anything like this would have happened before. Also it was probably unethical to take the hand, that had obviously been separated from it's body recently, the person might still be alive. He'd have to speak to Mr Dier-- who he found really annoying as well. Didn't like how he thought he could completely change the place since he was new, he'd probably been in teaching longer than Dier. Anyway he had more stressing matters to attend to. He was okay, but what about his class? Some might be mentally scarred for life, emotionally and psychologically effected. It'd be best to send them back to class as soon as possible. * After five minutes, he finally spoke again, people had calmed down abit. "Everybody, line up. Jimbo, you collect in the spades. You can watch a video until the end of this lesson, and if anybody isn't feeling well you can go down to see Kate, the nurse, in her office." People were now less anxious, muttering and dreading that the class was over in less than twenty minutes. They wouldn't be able to see even a whole episode of The Simpsons. I wondered how people could be so scared and worried, and how they now become calmer and joked about the situation. I mean they would still talk about it, but they were now more worried about 'Who pushed Clare in Hollyoaks' and 'Who attacked Patrick' in EastEnders. What about 'Who's hand is it, and how did it get there?' Things never change, much; things like this happen but in a matter of five minutes nobody cares so much. Reluctant as we all were, we followed Mr Butter back to the classroom. Anyway I still wanted to know the ins and outs of it all, and find out what really happened with the Hand. Could it actually have belonged to Mo?

CHAPTER FIVE - "Mistake My Biology" So yeah it it's a whole hour of boredom, now. One word. Four sylabals. Seven letters. Girls Aloud wrote a song about it. Biology. Eh, When do we desect the frogs? Honestly three periods of biolgy; Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Well until we get to do BioTechnolgy ,or something more intresting than sampling plants and insects. Do I look like I really care, Do I really want a future job that involves counting daisies? Suppose it's better than Physics, nearly chose that, wonder if Mae's enjoying her sums and formulas(or is it formulae?). Yeah well I could never remember how to make a circuit, so maybe the fun parts would be just as boring. But right now, with Mr Butter ranting on about this "genious invention". It just looks like a red metal frame with sqaure holes inside it, to me. Sampling grid or something. Relieved, atleast we get to escape from this classroom. Those stools are so uncomfortable. I'd rather be digging up pit-fall traps anyday. * So we had to go out twos, Butter paired me up with Anne, that's a relief. Last time I was partners with Fred, who recently emmigrated from Trinidad. He expects to get away with me doing all the work. Everybody seems to think that he's a brainbox. Apparently he organised some full-scale robberies, just rumours. Nah, he isn't that clever, there must have been somebody else helping him, I mean he can't even tie his shoelaces. Fred was blamed for what happened to Mr Dier, apparently his drink had been spiked, likely story. Irn Bru, nah, maybe not this time. He smelt like a bloody pub. Anyway Anne says that she kinda feels sorry for him (no, not Mr Dier, Fred), he got the accusation without any real evidence, exept that he was in Mr Dier's office at the time-- the only "student", what about the teachers, I wonder? Anne also said that he's new here and might be a bit confused. Also there's fact that he apparently "used" to do drugs, more rumours? They just looked at what he did (or might have done) before and didn't think to investigate it further. Fred might have this reputation, but he's not as clever as everybody thinks, well it doesn't seem like it to me; either that or he's incredibly lazy. I thought up some theory (yeah yeah, everybody thinks I'm paranoid) that the teachers were just using it as an exucse to get away with Mr Dier being drunk, and to stop him losing his job. I suppose, even for his vices-- which are mostly rumours--, Fred isn' that bad, not compared to some of the racist bigots and the annoying bullies, oh don't forget the quiet ones. And I'm sure that he's had alot to come with, coming to a new country and all, the racists never help the situation. * "Okay, Third Year." Butter addresses us all. "We're here today, to dig up pitfall traps, like I explained in class." He handed out spades and we were off to work, might aswell be slave labour; exploiting children to work for nothing. Well it beats hitting the books in the clasroom. Anyway this would be the perfect oppurtunity to talk to Anne about what happened at Reggie, with Maureen's MSN and all. Afterall, they were quite close friends. So I started to dig, we chose a location near the wall, it'd be easiest, according to Jimbo Brown-Johnson. "Anne, the weirdest thing happened in Reggie. Em..." "Yeah?" asked Anne, politley. "Well, em, have you seen Mo recently?" "No, actually. Last I saw her was Saturday, on the week when Mr Dier went crazy." "Well in Reggie her MSN addy was logged in." "Hmm..." she paused, intrigued. "Maybe she just left it on... Oh, but she'd never leave it on, er... I don't know." Anne suggested. "Well, it does seem odd. Did she say anything about going away, last time you met? That'd explain the absence." "Well she did send me a text. We were planning to meet at the Bus Stop, she'd joined this group. I think it was a band; but I'm not sure. She invited me to come and see them." She took out her phone, and showed the text: "dont cm 2 the group. whtvr u do dnt cm." "I thought that she couldn't come, or wasn't allowed to invite me. Like she'd just made a little joke. You know how she is, a drama queen."added Anne "Yeah, suppose there's a perfectly normal explanation for it. Maybe she did just leave her computer on, by accident. Not exactly that suspicous. I mean, maybe-"I said "Oh Snap, Snap." Anne yelled. I looked at the pit. "What is it?" "There's something there."she jabbed it with the spade, and reluctanly began digging. "Fudge; is that, is that-" I said, but I didn't want to finish my sentence. Anne nodded, "I think, it is." People started to come near, to see what all the fuss was about. People were screaming. Lots of frightened faces. Boys and girls, all screaming, all shouting. Mr Butter walked up to the scene. "What's all this nonsense-." He paused. He saw it aswell. The hand.

Islamic creation backs up the Big bang, and this theory that "the universe is created from nothing" has lead some scientists to think that there was a greater power. The Qur'an also mentions other scientific theories that closely resemble or are compatible with modern-day theories; such as embryology and the mountains. All this from a book 1400 years ago, revealed to an illiterate man. There were no universities or professors or the advanced technology we have today. This proves the divine authority of the Qur'an, meaning that a single monotheistic God must exist and that there is a Judgment Day; because both these topics (Monotheism and Qiyammah aka Day of Resurrection) are the most frequently mentioned topics of The Qur'an.

I've always thought that suicide was kindof stupid, I mean come on... killing yourself's just gonna make it worse for everyone else. Even if you've got a religion, and expect an afterlife. Well I'm a fourteen year old Muslim, and Islam says that if somebody commits suicide they go straight to hell (known as Jahannam)-- that really kicks those mad suicide bombers in the shins (the "72 virgins for suicide bombers" myth is just propaganda)! But seriously, Hell's gotta be worse than a depressed life. Islam is very descriptive of hell, for example people must eat "fruit" that will boil their insides like oil . Here's a Qur'anic quote about suicide: and a hadith And I'm sure Islam isn't the only religion condemning Suicide, i mean the Bible's sixth commandment "thou shall not kill", it never says what "thou" can't kill, does it? Anyway I just don't get the whole thing with emos, I mean they have their own culture (music, dress-sense, etc) but they would easily give it up for death. Seems kindof weird to me. Anyway I would only think it's right for somebody to willingly allow themself to be killed (so not to directly commit suicide), if it was to save another person's life. Also the story of when Ismail (Ishmael pbuh) seems appropriate here. Very similar to the Jewish/Christian version. Ibrahim (Abraham pbuh) and his wife were very old, however after never having a child before, they were blessed with a baby boy. They cared for him so much, but Ibrahim was a pious man and messenger of God, he had a revelation from God commanding him to sacrifice his son. At this point Ismail (pbuh) was a bit older, but still a child. But even at that age he was willing to be sacrificed if that was what God had commanded, not influenced at all by the temptations of Satan/Shaitan/Iblis. But as it turned out it was all a test from God, a test of Ibrahim's (pbuh) faith. Later Ismail (pbuh) became the forefather of the Arabs, while his brother Ishaq (Issac pbuh) became the forefather of the Israelites; wonder what they'd think if they saw the Arab-Israel Confilct present in Israel and Palestine today. Anyway went a bit OT there, but obviously "willingness to be killed" is a bit different to actually committing suicide-- but if you were in a situation where one person might have to die to save a whole lot of other people I think it'd be acceptable. Euthanasia is considered suicide, and I'm against that.

Hmm, a teacher at my school was talking about this yesterday.Apparently only 1 per cent of the presents that people buy at Christmas, are still kept in 6 months.Obviously, there would be lot's of people buying food and durable stuff, but when you've got people buying computers, i-pods, mobile phones and games consoles aswell; that's a whole lot of waste.For example, with a six-month waiting list for the Wii-- here in the UK atleast, will people still want it when they can finally get their hands on it? And all this extra stuff being bought, is more waste to fill up landfills.There's also the fact that specific industries are spending their time hyping up "new" technology, which won't be so new in another six months. Companies deliberately put up these products, when they have already been developing advanced products, for sale. So when the next thing comes out they can sell that too, this way they can get the public to buy both things.Now, don't get me wrong, I think that Christmas is a great time of year, and I'm abit of a tech-geek , but when theres so much going to waste-- is there any point? We only get a little bit of "instant-happiness" when we first get pressies, but later they go to waste and "help" towards us wrecking our planet-- as we do-- year after year.

---------- [chapter four] 28, No I Mean 2 Weeks Later So yeah I was late everyday in these next two weeks, exept maybe once when, nah I was still late then... Never mind, I'll get on with the story. So let's start with Reggie-- no not yet another character (but it is set in a school, what were you expecting), Reggie is short for Registration for those of you who didn't know. Well this was the first day that I was actually in Reggie, partly because it was an extended Reggie. Ms Peterson was gonna have a party, apparently. Probably a joke. Anyway, the good thing about Reggie in a computer class is that you get to go online. So after watching 'Dramatic Chimpunk' for two minutes (the crazy priarie dog is so funny), I was on to MSN. We weren't allowed, but since i found that proxy-- the teachers never realised. Anyway there wasn't any point since everybody was in school, and a skiver wouldn't be that thick to log on to MSN. (Maybe That-Person-that-Can't-be-Named-or- he'll-Beat-me-up, a la Voldemort, but he obviously isn't in my friends list. But it turns out that Maureen's account was logged in. Thinking back, I realised she'd been off the whole week. She was an Afro-Carribean girl, who liked Nature and saving the planet. I tried talking ME:Hello ME:Is anybody there? ME:Hello Maureen? Then the account logged off, whoever it was didn't want to speak to me (,I wonder why, I always start the most intresting and stimulating conersations). Her mum had recently met up with a hippie group, so maybe she'd moved to live with them. But why was her account logged in? She'd never waste electricity. And she would have told us. Something was suspicous, had to talk to everybody about this at break. Then the bell rang... Time for Biolgy! That'd be fun(!) <groan!> ----------

---------- [chapter three] Beware of the... Pickerel Okay so the bell rang, and it was time for English I obviously couldn't take my jotter, after Mr Dier had made it look like it should be in the toilet-- mind you, it probably smelt better than the toilets. Anyway, off to Ms Pickerel's English class. She was gonna go rajj at me, but I wasn't touching that jotter. * "ZAKARIYA!" she screamed when I asked for some paper for our latest project; we had to look at poetry, again-- it was on "old" people, Mae was doing it on the Psycholgy of English teachers. "WHY DIDN'T YOU BRING YOUR JOTTER? You've had English on the same day for the past year, so should remember by now." "Mr Dier puked all over it, he was drunk or something." I replied. "I'm sure he wasn't." Her face was a big red ballon, her vien pulsating, a sign of her how angry she was-- according to Mae. "No stop spreading your lies and excuses. You could have come up with something better than that." "It's not like I lost it on purpose...,threw it in... the Water of Leith or something, it's still downstairs in the Concourse, if you want to see my jotter." She looked like she was gonna explode, but before she could say anything the phone rang. She picked it up. Everyone was pretending to do their work, but they were secretly eavesdropping on the conversation. "Oh Good Morning, Ms Laser."she answered the call. "So what's so important?... What?" she looked worried. "Really, this isn't a joke or anything. Okay, okay so I have to go down because Kate's not in... Is it serious... are you sure nobody else could help with First Aid?" I guessed that she must have found out about the incident at break. "I see...I'm just coming." "Class, I... I need to go, it's urgent. Make sure you behave, Ms Ravers will let me know if you disturb the other classes. Remeber to do your work." she looked anxious and kindof scared. She sprinted to the door. Maybe this wasn't the best time, but hey this was important, according to Mr Basket. "Miss-" I said. "Yes, Zak?" she replied, with a worried expression on her face. "Em... Could I borrow a pencil?" ----------

---------- [chapter two] Break Time Two hours later...Break Time, Concourse...Not at the "usual table" "Oh bull, Why did they have to move the tables?" I asked. "Do you ever stop moaning?" said Mae. The poltical brainbox. Also had a sarcasm problem. That was Mae. "Hate that Katie from The Apprentice, what's her problem with Maevis'?" "Yeah, you arney fat. So don't do a Hannah-from-Hollyoaks. Anyway she was fired, that was good." replied Maureen. "Final tommorow,..."I replied. So we carried on our converstation on The Apprentice. Jimmy and Laura joined the table. "My money's on Kristina," said Laura. "Simon's just a posh, know-it-all reject." "What are you talking about?"asked Jimmy "The Apprentice," replied Maureen. "Sir Alan Sugar's TV show. He's looking for a someone to join his organisation. Fires one every week." "It's a load of capitalist bull, but hey I'm addicted." added Mae So we carried on our regular natter about stuff, while Kelly, Anne, Sarah, Lee and Tracy joined the table. Then Mr Dier arrived. "He looks drunk." said Kelly. "Drinking too much Irn Bru, the eejit's gone hyper." replied Lee. "Hello everyone. Give me your jotters, or you're on detention." "Em, I'm already on detention. No need to rub it in." I replied. His breath really did smell of drink, and it definatley wasn't Irn Bru. So we handed him the jotters, he went crazy. Ripping them up, writing graffiti. We all looked shocked, Mr Dier was drunk. He was vandalising our jotters- Oh no, how much trouble would I get in from Ms Pickerel? Mr Dier had just puked up in my English jotter, nasty... He started doing weird dances and jumping around. "So he likes liqour, Irn Bru and carrots."replied Tracy, she was looking at the mess in my jotter. "No that's not carrots, it's just some orange stuff that comes out in vomit."said Mae, who was being a know-it-all, even in a situation like this. "Hmmm, looks like the stuff your hamster eats, Kelly." added Jimmy. "It's not a hamster, it's a HEDGEHOG, you idiot." Kelly answered back. "Well someone tell a teacher." added Maureen. "The dinnerladies don't give a damn, and I think he was the only teacher on duty." Anne infromed her. Tracy went to look at the sick, "examining" it. "I saw this thing on CSI, about human vomit, it can tell you if he really HAS been drinking too much Irn Bru. I'm gonna be a forensic scientist."she brought up the subject of her future job everyday, so we were kinda getting used to it. "Oh, not your forensic rubbish agian. I'm getting a bloody earache." "Do you ever stop moaning?" added Mae, talking to me. "I did tell you he had Irn Bru, I saw him with it on his desk."said Anne. "Well go on, Tracy. Show us if it's true." responded Jimmy. Just then, the bell rang...we'll never know if he really drank Irn Bru or not. NOOOOOO(!), and the small matter of Ms Pickerel killing me... ----------

I like playing games, and talking with my friends online, and other technological stuff (website making, animating, game making... i could go on...). I was born in Manchester and I like Man U!!! But now I live in Edinburgh. I have 3 brothers and 4 sisters. I have loads of cousins. I'm a muslim. I like reading, TV, films'good' music and computing. At school, I'm in Third Year; I like IT, Modern Studies, Business and Drama's okay and English can be okay sometimes. I hate Maths and RME(WTFP?); and sometimes German can be boring. Like everyone else I like having a laugh. My IQ is 133 (GIFTED), but I can be an idiot sometimes.MusicThe Black Eyed Peas, 2Pac, , Akon, Pussycat Dolls, Beyonce, Cassie, Sugababes, Keri Hilson, Snoop Dogg, Cassie, Rihanna, Timbaland, Fergie, will.i.amFilmsHarry Potter series, Unbreakable, Phonebooth, "I, Robot", Shaft, Night at the Museum, Epic Movie, Rush Hour, The Medallion, TransFormers, Spider-Man 3, ...BooksHarry Potter books, CHERUB books, Artemis Fowl, Alex Rider books/Anthony Horowitz, Reapers series by Andrew Butcher...TV ShowsChaotic, Doctor Who, Heroes, Jekyll, Torchwood, Sarah Jane Adventures, MI High, Little Britain, Ugly Betty, Catherine Tate, Hollyoaks, Everybody Hates Chris, 8 Simple Rules, Pimp My Ride, EastEnders...GamesChaotic, Tekken, ...

I'm a muslim, and there's lots in the media recently, giving Islam a bad message.I would never say all non-muslims are bad and that all muslims are good. I'm saying; as it says in the Qur'an (this may also be the case in other religons and scriptures) that everybody is born sinless; and they remain sinless until they reach maturity. But Human kind have been given "free-will", and what we do affects us. There are obviously non-muslims that are good; and there are also muslms who are bad; that's just human nature-- Free-will.Also there are also the facts of the mis-interpretations of 'Kafir' and 'Jihad'.All lot of people think that Kafir means non-believer; but it's a bit more precise. It actually means "Rejecter of faith", same thing? I think not, by rejecter of faith, it means someone who has clearly been informed about Islam, and then rejects it. And the king of the Kafir? Iblis/Shaitan aka The Devil,Satan. He did "know" about God's faith, but he was too proud, too arrogant, too self-obsessed to follow him. He "rejected" Islam, he didn't like it. The same could be said for the the one of the groups of people that Muhammad (pbuh) first approached his revelations to, one of the groups that the Qur'an was SPECIFICALLY aimed for, the followers of past prophets, the Arab Jews. At first they were willing to embrace Islam, but later they rejected it, as they couldn't change it to profit their beliefs.Maybe some did, but that was those who didn't, there priests, from the past, had changed their beliefs to reflect on what they wanted, I wouln't like to offend anyone, these are past people I'm talking about. If a "non-muslim"-- not kafir-- learns about Islam clearly and properly then rejects it, then they are a "Kafir"-- "Rejector of Islam". If they spend there whole lives not knowing at all about Islam, or being misguided by lies, then they are not Kafir, but still technically non-believers none the less. So in the Qur'an it mentions that a muslim shouldn't be friends with a "Kafir", this doesn't mean that they can't mix with people of other religons; this means that they should stay away from those people who fully-know about Islam, and reject it.Two more groups; "People of the Book"-- Christians and Jews; they are sometimes known as this in the Qur'an, the actual group that the Qur'an was aiming for the descendants of the followers of Moses (pbuh) and Jesus (pbuh). They aren't "proper" non-bleivers as they do believe in some prophets-- Jews believe in many prophets including Adam (pbuh), Noah (pbuh), Abraham (pbuh), Ishmael (pbuh), Issac (pbuh), and Moses (pbuh); to name a few, Christians believe in the Jewish prophets and a few more including John the Baptist (pbuh) and Jesus (pbuh); Muslims also include Muhhamed (pbuh), and there are some prophets mentioned in the Qur'an that aren't mentioned in the Old or New Testaments; and then there are all the ones that weren't mentioned in the Qur'an either, thousands of them. They also believe in the angels, and the books and in One God (debatable about the Trinity of Christianity), and "the Day of Judgment".Also there are these hypocrites, some of the worst people on this Earth. People who claim to be muslims, but who don't follow the most important rules. The may claim to be muslims, but these people aren't. They may be muslims to the outside world, but in real-fact, inside they aren't. Maybe these include the Muslim terrorist groups. They are Extremists, they go to extremes to get their message across and and end up breaking up the most important rules of what they believe; kind of like Enviromental Extremists, they say protect the whole planet and nature and all life, then they go killing many people (life), and wreck the atmosphere with the pollution, and destroy the plants and animals in their way, and they destroy the artificial objects/builings that they may aswell of recycled.Anyway, that leads to this next paragraph. The true meaning of Jihad. Jihad is an Arabic verb for struggling or striving for a cause. In the Qur'an it means to struggle for your religion. Jihad doesn't just include "military jihad", but also other aspects of deending against lies about you're religon. Like Putting things right; setting a good example as a person,to anyone, like your family, and you're friends. Showing them that you are a good person, and that this because of following your faith. You might also say that me posting this is classed as "Jihad". As I am trying to correct these misconceptions, but you don't see any random act of violence and destructing of somebody's life. There is also military jihad, more closer to the in-correct definition, "holy war". This is when somebody protects there religon, etc from threats. Kind of like joining the army, but there are rules; you can't attack innocents, women, children, the ill, or the elderly. You must only attack the "soldiers" and so. And you can't harm trees, plants, animals and try not to harm the environment. And this type of Jihad, is like a last resort. Before this, you must try other methods of reasoning. So these terrorist groups, may be doing things for the right cause, but they certainly aren't doing it the right way. They are evil things to do, but let's remember that people aren't always remembered on their morality, but on their popularity. Examples of some evil-doers:ADOLF HITLER: Evil dictator; killed many people, including Jews; eventually went (more) insane, adn started acting like he was a demi-God. Hated by many people including the Allies, who won. Went down as Evil in history.OSAMA BIN LADEN: In charge of Al-Qieda; responsible for the lives of many. The majority of the Public think he is an evil tyrant, which I actually kindof agree with.GEORGE W. BUSH JR.: Some like him, some hate him; thought of as an idiot, and made mistakes like the situation in Iraq; hmm, hard one...Made Major mistakes with Iraq, and quite unliked for this by many people not just non-muslims.OK, Get back your history books; this one might surprise you.WILLIAM WALLACE: Well not saying that he is "evil", but he has done wrongs. Murderer, Rapist, "Extreme Freedom Fighter", "saved" Scotland, But not the nicest man. Well he is quite liked and very popular, especially with the Scottish people. But what about his bad side? He is remembered as a "good guy", because Scotland won against England then, and well that's what really counts their populairty, especially by those that "win".Okay, so it's not that plain and simple. But I don't support these extermists. But I don't support Bush and that either. I as a muslim am part of the Muslim community, the Ummah. Like a big family of world wide muslims, and we don't like it when other innocent muslims are attacked, so we are the first to help them. But extremism isn't the way. I mean think about the situation in Palestine and Israel, I mean they do both have evil people attacking eachother, but could I add an example of what the Israelis have done to the Palestinians, they bombed places that were nowhere near Hezbollah, and killed many innocents. So remember that Muslims aren't the only ones who can be extremists, so can others.And lastly, women aren't mistreated in Islam. Infact they are considered to be better treated in Islam than other communities. Like in Islam, women "choose" to cover up as it makes them feel more independent, and it's kind of like a way of being feminist. They don't want men pervving other them, thinking that they are only sex objects, like in a lot of western societies. They want to dress modestly, and not always be jusged on their looks. But in Islam it says that everone should dress modesley, which includes men.In Islam women are probably more free than in other societies. Muhammed (pbuh), brought justice to pre-Islamic world filled with female-infantcide, disrespect for women, wife-beating and prostitution. women were subjected so much ill, and Islam order this to be wrong.Not all muslims are good muslims, so when judging religion look at the faith, not the people-- human are imperfect, they can make mistakes and they have the free will to commit evil, and that's people of all faiths. Anybody could try using religion as a "tool" to justify misdeeds, but that doesn't mean the religion subscribes to that view. People have interpretations and make misjudgements. And people can do good aswell, religion can be a "tool" for good deeds such as giving to charity, polieness, etc. Religion just gives people on guidance on how to live, but at the end of the day the people can choose how they use that guidance. So don't assume all people of the same faith are the same.

Henny and Apple Juice by Keri Hilson is the best song at the moment.My favourite artists include The Black Eyed Peas, 2Pac, , Akon, Pussycat Dolls, Beyonce, Cassie, Sugababes, Keri Hilson, Snoop Dogg, Cassie, Rihanna, Timbaland, Fergie, will.i.am, and more i fir got to mention.But basically rap, r&b and hip hop songs.

I have a few...Harry Potter seriesUnbreakablePhoneboothI, Robot ShaftNight at the MuseumEpic MovieRush HourThe MedallionTransFormersSpider-Man 3(more)But I don't go to the cinema alot, so most I've seen on DVD or TV.

Google is faster and "I'm feeling lucky" is always helpful. It's more famous and more memorable.Yahoo adds too much other stuff to it's "search page", whereas google just has little links to them on other pages.Lots more people use google and remember it, so with it's wide use simplicity (atleast in the search page anyway), it'll come out on top compared to Yahoo anyday.

Here's some suggestions for what to readCHERUB series by Michel Muchamore-The Recruit-Class A-Maximum Security-The Killing-Divine Madness-Man Vs. Beast-The Fall- Mad Dogs(more out next year)Reapers series by Andrew Butcher-The Time of the Reaper-Slave HarvestCHERUB's about a secret organisation of kid and teenage spies.Reapers is about a sickness thats killed all the worlds adults. There's only under-18s left. They have to find ways of surviving the chaotic and dangerous world.George Orwell's "Animal Farm" is good, and the Harry Potter series (obviously).

Heroes, by far. It's the best show ever, can't wait for series 2 to come to the United Kingdom.Dr Who is good too, so's Chaotic...Oh, I'll add a listChaotic, Doctor Who, Heroes, Jekyll, Torchwood, Sarah Jane Adventures, MI High, Little Britain, Ugly Betty, Catherine Tate, Hollyoaks, Everybody Hates Chris, 8 Simple Rules, Pimp My Ride, EastEnders(no real order, and that's not all)
