      Maybe it's because you use your "religion" as a stick to beat us with and we're sick of it?

        btw, SD, what the blazes was that about pooh? Ah, ok. "The Tao of Pooh". Not read it myself. Prefer "Now we are six".
        Really nice NAT - If you didn't know Islam and Judaism are very similar in everything, I love reading the old testament...

        never been against a Jews, but against Israelis politics!!

            Or maybe Sandy is a troll (avatar + mentioning Islamism at every opportunity).

            I think Sandy is another Dim Prawn alt.

              Sandydown - you haven't stopped fasting yet have you? Or did Ramadan end yesterday?
              Eid ul Fitr (1 Shawwal)
              This marks the end of Ramadan, the month of fasting, and is a festival of great celebration. In Islamic countries it is a public holiday. The first Eid was celebrated in 624 CE by the Prophet Mohammed (pbuh) with his friends and relatives.

              Muslims are not only celebrating the end of fasting, but thanking Allah for the help and strength that he gave them throughout the previous month to help them practice self-control.

              The festival begins when the first sight of the new moon is seen in the sky.

              Muslims in most countries rely on news of an official sighting, rather than looking at the sky themselves.

              Eid ul Fitr is very mucha community festival and people go out into the streets to exchange greetings, and visit friends and relatives.

              The celebratory atmosphere is increased by everyone wearing best or new clothes, and decorating their homes. There are special services out of doors and in Mosques, processions through the streets, and of course, a special celebratory meal—eaten during daytime, the first daytime meal Muslims will have had in a month.

              Eid is also a time of forgiveness, and making amends.

                      There's just something reminiscent of the Prawn in the wording and sentence construction.
