higher level than other infidels

Oh, so there's a caste system for infidels? Goody! Put me at the bottom, k?

I don't see the Muslims disparaging other religions

Really? I've heard Muslims call Jews rats, dogs, bastards, pigs....

As a side issue: wtf is up with Islam and dogs? Jesus friggin' Christ. Any religion that doesn't "allow" a boy to have a dog as a pet is... sick.

after the Mohammed cartoon controversity, I'd imagine they'd want more "protection"

You mean censorship?

"protected" against blasphemy

Fail.

I'd like to know how the truly religious cope the fact that the book they read today has been rewritten over and over and perverted so many times that it can hardly reflect what was 'supposed' to be there.

Oh wait, faith.

...grumble grumble...

Attached to: Full Review of the iPhone 2 On Launch Day
A friend of mine works for a company selling the iPhone 2. According to him if you lose your iPhone 2 you will 1. Have to pay full price to get a new one (not too surprising imo) and 2. Re-sign up for a 2 year contract... Also according to him the employees have been instructed specifically to not mention this fact to customers. Pretty screwy to me. Then again I am ignorant of how most cell phones work so I don't know if this is standard or not. I'm assuming based on his reaction its not.

The Bible has many contradictions. There are two *different* Creation stories, right off the bat!

But you know what? People still consider it the "infallible Word of God" and believe that there are no mistakes in the Bible. They base their whole religious view based on this faith. They try to live their lives according to the book's teachings.

You think your little contradiction means anything?
