Yes gegel you do remember.

back on topic. Hopefully Muslims come out in the hundreds of thousands across the world to protest against Islamic extremism.

I hope not. That would imply we are in agreement with terrorists.

If we have to condone this solely based on our religion, it's like saying Islam is to blame. Any rational thinking person would do this because it's a horrible act, but only Muslims are forced to apologize for something because our religion is to blame.

Stop asking Muslims to condemn terrorism. It's bigoted and Islamophobic.

I mean we shouldn't be required to condemn it. You're basically telling an entire population to say they're sorry for something that's not their fault.

I seem to remember something, vaguely, about photos,

but then NatureBoy* and I started slobbering about your physique and I think you took em down.

That's what I remember, albeit vaguely.. I always have a blast in Malaysia. Was planning a jaunt for Spring Break this year, but no need anymore - my calendar is full.

* Nota.Bene.: NatureBoy and myself share the same predeliction for the 'Goddess' Body Type/Style, and seemingly start writing in the same style when we run across it/her and aren't of any use to anyone for about 48 hours after first sighting. We both enjoy to worship the Goddess when we're able - I was as shocked as you to learn that NB and I actually share this particular predilection.

Not in this case.

If you add up every single person who has been a victim of this type of terrorism in the last 20 years, more folks have been killed by cars in one year. By guns, by cancer, by alcohol, and countless others.

If we have to condemn this, then every time some nut case goes on a murder spree, anyone who has a gun should be denouncing it. It's only fair.
