"I want to take this opportunity to mention how thankful I am for an Obama re-election. The choice was clear. We cannot live in a country that treats homosexuals and women as second class citizens. Homosexuals deserve all of the rights and benefits of marriage that heterosexuals receive. Women deserve to be treated with respect and their salaries should not depend on their gender, but their quality of work. I am also thankful that the great, progressive state of California once again voted for the correct President. America is moving forward, and the direction is a positive one."

I like boobs too, that doesn't mean I like them all. I do like them in general. In general, boobs are good. So are Muslims. And no I am not calling Muslims boobs.

But, the unasked question is .... do you like Muslim boobs? :unsure:

Breast-Feeding a Man in Islam

by Mumin Salih

26 May, 2009

Is it acceptable in Islam for a woman to breast-feed a man then stay with him legally in one room?

The answer to this question makes the difference between true Muslims who faithfully follow the footsteps of Mohammed and the hypocrites who modify their religion to follow their desires. Allah described them as such in the Quran: Q.28: 50… they only follow their own desires, and who is more astray than one who follow his own desires…

The issue of breast-feeding men is currently a hot topic in Egypt and has been the focus of the media in many Middle Eastern countries. It all started when Dr. Izzat Attya who is the head of the department of Hadith in Al-Azhar, which is the world’s most prestigious Islamic University, issued a fatwa, or religious opinion. The fatwa declared that, it is legitimate for a working Muslim woman to breast-feed her male colleague to avoid the sin of ‘khulwa’ (staying with a stranger in one room). Similar fatwas had been issued in the past by many sheikhs in many Middle-Eastern countries, but this is the first time it comes from a high level academic of Al-Azhar.

I think liking as person solely for being muslim is as negative as hating them solely for that reason.

Lets say someone put up a poll that asked "Do you want to send Why_Me to prison forever?" and the responses were 14 in favor and 20 against. Wouldn't you be a bit dismayed that 14 said yes at all?

I was a little dismayed at first, because I am Muslim. So then I went with my children to a cafe here in Fremont, Michigan to make myself feel better. Everyone in the cafe stared at me, practically pointing with their faces, so we knew they were talking about me, and the three people sitting directly behind us got up, took all their stuff, and moved to the other side of the restaurant, like I was hiding a machine gun in my hijab, and I thought - VJers aren't so bad :blush:

Sometime it is just curiosity. When my wife and I go out, we get the stares. A big old white guy, and a tiny young brown girl, that folks can't tell if she is Mexican or Chinese. :lol:

People at the store, restaurant, etc.. usually think Kira's my daughter, and I just tell them she's my very sexually active young niece. :devil:

Possibly some of them. Many of them have never left Fremont, and are a bit afraid of anything outside of it. It is a very conservative Dutch Reformed community - the people who left The Netherlands because it was too liberal, way back when. It is also a place where your physical therapist might ask you if you have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. I don't think the people who moved were too curious though - LOL.

I don't like or not like people based on their race, religion etc.. I base it on what type of person they are... you can't just lump people together :P

This... but I voted yes.

I'm mostly asked if Alex is my brother. Or, most commonly, people think we are both high school students. 'You're old enough to be married?' 'Um, I don't think you're old enough to be having that wine...'

So what if a person said they liked you because you were white? Or solely because of your religion, or other trait that should not matter?
