    Why does Marwan wander so happily, whenever Pat hates the wet enigma very nearly?
    Let's dream inside the handsome moons, but don't receive the sad yogis.
    They are ordering within lean, before sad, above unique carpenters.

    their leaders so they
    will pay the price.
    Now there will be some Jews who are like us living on street, they
    should know that leaders can use their own people to get positions and
    stay on top, this does happen and I personally know a few (like that),
    we will discuss them later some day at the right time. If it is reality,
    I must question what has Israel got to fear if they really are on God?s
    side and what is this attacking people from the back, and considering
    there are those who know why is it that nothing is done to stop such
    things. I personally consider this very much against any religion and
    ethics when people are trained to misguide people, and in that case
    Islam should not be blamed, considering average person can never find
    who and which one is cheating on Muslims. Thus in such kind of system
    developed inside Muslims, Muslims will fail unless they practise the
    basics of their religion. Muslims controlled the world for 1400 years
    but we did not alter any religion I was told all this by several human
    "programmers" who changed. Some told me some bits of this story, others
    would confirm but no tell anything further.
    Though these are my thoughts and experiences, but they can be wrong, if
    so hope others correct me and may God forgive me, may God have mercy on
    us all and may God give us ability to be unbiased and ability to be +ve
    and ability to analyse things. wa?Salam Mohsin
    Bringing systematic change in religions (a grave concern for those who
    know). 
    Assalam u?Alekum :)
    -- The cure to "so called Cancer of being religious and fearing God" in
    bad guys eyes An average Christian today is not like the way Christians
    were a century back, things have changed a lot people don?t go to church
    though they may still call themselves Christians by they do many things
    that go against their religion like unlawful relationships, today this
    has been generally accepted by the society. Media, se
