Hi, Ali:

Okay, then, I won't talk about foreign policy issues here if you think it is the wrong place to do so. (U.S. foreign policy cannot be the sole focus, as we are but one player in the field, greatly affected by the foreign policies of many other political entities: by self-serving nations like Russia, France, and Syria, and by the overreaching and unbridled policies of subversive Islamic organizations, like Hamas and al Quaeda.) I was merely trying to address some common misperceptions about U.S. policy that Perception brought up in his response to Shadowpuppet's initial post.

I will see if I have time to start a new thread later today. I am involved in one other thread that I need to check in on ("Do they hate the Qu'ran?"), and then I have work to do!

So, see you later Brother and Sister Earthlings.  Take care.

Astro

Dear Perception:

Peace be with you, as well.

Please forgive me for forgetting to respond to you before leaving this thread. I have a lot to do and my mind gets pulled away.

As suggested by you and Brother Ali, I will leave this thread (General Discussion, �I�m New�) and continue the discussion in the Current events section under the new topic �U.S. as a Vessel of God�s Goodness.�

Peace.

Astro

But for the record, I'm not a "bro" lol.  I'm a girl!! A 28 year old one.  I thought the chiro flirting would have given it away, but maybe not.  Unless I'm really ignorant and you call the ladies bro as well.

  No, you are fine with your understanding of brothers and sisters as two seperate gender groups. Thanks for your clarification about your gender, but I think, if I am not very far off, this flirting thing is not exclusive to opposite sexes here in this country. Isn't it? or is there some other name or terminology for the same sex "flirting"?Secondly, from your post the gender of your Chiro is not obvious either. Nevertheless, it hardly matter what your gender is, but what is important is what you think and how you express them in your writings. Hope that we can have better conversation now. Cheers.

AhmadJoyia,

If it is not assumed that it was a male doctor, why is it assumed that I'm a "bro" and not a "sister"?  I didn't think that posting to forums was exclusive to genders either. 

And I didn't think it was a bad conversation.  Cheers.

Ms. shadowpuppet,

I don't think that the people on this site think differently than you.  We are all humans right.  We all have the same animalistic tendencies; one can only assume that given the right circumstances we would also 'think' in the same way.  I believe that if we are able to talk to these people in the right way, we could surly turn them around.

Peace,
Arabian

Arabian,

Who would be "these people" and what do you expect you could "turn them around" from?

Peace, ummziba.

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but your words...they break my soul ~

Hmm! Probably from a fifty fifty chance outcome! (Is it really a 50-50 chance? I can guess only). Cheers.

[QUOTE=Astrophysicist]

Hi, all:

Ray, it seems to me that your response to shadowpuppet was unnecessarily hostile. 

peace,

 That's what all you haters do. You take the truth and claim someones abusing you for stating it. My responce to puppet was "far" from hostile. Your accusations are completely false. I think you on the other hand were attempting to turn opinions against me to further your own agenda. Shameful and hateful on your part. Again more haters allowed to abuse Muslims while other Muslims stand around and watch.
