and Whisper and others Just gone speechless for being included amongst such fine figures. Please don't get me wrong, I am not trying to stereotype anyone here at all, but do I sense a bit of Arab in you? for only they possess the depths to be able to afford to "know of heavens even while talking only about camels". I won't even attempt to thank you. |

I've been waiting for you to show me where I "spit" on you, what you can't find it? Anyways, why would I care what she says about some idiot in the south who thinks people like being without a home and away from family? I only call you on your bull so if you only post truthful statements or at least show some type of proof of what you claim maybe I will agree with you as well. Well I won't ever agree with you on terrorist as you seem to idiolize them and I just won't be a part of that. But if you want to bash Bush or any of his cronies in Washington then by all mean let's see who can find the most dirt on him as I don't believe anything that crook says. Maybe we can talk about the facists direction America is taking? Just try your hardest though to admit that even Muslims can be crooked and I'm all ears. |

Hanan, Would you think that to a degree all humans have a bit of racism in them? Society and culture often foster a lack of understanding. I know I used to apologize constantly when dealing with other races. I grew up in a town where there was no racial diversity.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saxton,_Pennsylvania Given the lack of contact with other cultures and races, I naturally grew up with many misconceptions about other groups. This is the case with many people I think. Small towns far outnumber large cities and isolation from the world at large affects groups all over the world. Racism is based in the lack of education and exposure. My father once proclaimed (when I was very small) that if I ever dated a black man, I was not welcomed home. Then he got out of Saxton and worked in Pittsburgh and other large cities. He experienced and grew. And when I dated a black man years later, he welcomed him with open arms. Too often people scoff and meet racism with a nasty attitude, this just reinforces the racist attitude of those people. Instead, I propose the battle against racism is thru exposure and openness. There was a lovely thread here about attending a mosque as a Non muslim and how a mosque opened its doors and invited outsiders into their world. It profoundly changed those that went. If we were to all throw open the doors of our lives to others, we would allow for the exchange of ideas, culture and knowledge. Then when people talked about another group, there would be a human connection, not just a preconceived notion. |

I've known that you were lost but admitting the problem is half the battle!!! I changed it as I get tired of people not listening and then I have to repeat the same thing over and over.
