Re: # 15; majumdar

these are not ugly rumours ... i recently presented Ibn-e-maja's reference (hadith quoted by ayesha ... who else!) advocating this ... allegedly the full script was not available since it was eaten by a goat!! ... with "editors" like that, who needs enemies! ... LOL!!

Re: # 105; majumdar
[[I agree that Masadi sahib is often repetitive and offers no solutions,]]

understatement of the century majumdar ... it is often very easy to criticise, doesn't require any wit to state the, at times, obvious .... it is our ability to come up with an alternative (no matter how silly that may be to some) that counts

as for the US, I for one didn't think americans would/could do this ... and I'd happily eat my words! ... I wish the americans well and hope Mr Obama brings good tidings, not only for his own country, but for the rest of the world.

as for the 'elitism' .... no two men were 'created' equal by the almighty! ... if they were, we won't have any inequalities in nature and there would be no need for anyone to strive for anything more than their immediate survival needs. It is what we do/achieve and how we react, within those inequalities of nature, that determines if we are decent human beings or not ... and the american record is much brighter on that accord than what our (yours and mine) ancestors ever achieved ... and kudos to them for that!

Re: # 96; tahmed sahib

I don't understand this sir ... masadi sahib has only ONE THING to say that he recycles time and time again ... it is the US and its elite, the peons of west, white man worship (or perhaps the "black man" now??), and 'conspiracies' instigated by the above ... why don't chowkstaff just publish his views (not that we don't get to read them anyway!) and put us all out of misery?

or WILL IT put us out of our misery?? that remains the big question

Re: # 90; dawa behen

yes .. but his biggest regret was not being let back in his beloved homeland and live with some grace and dignity

Re: # 86; majumdar

thank you sir .. I am sure those 'mutids' would be very happy to hear that

dawa behen ... what's your take on Dr Abdus Salam trying his hardest to serve his country ... perhaps the same way as Sabieh ... but constantly being shunned away ... do you have a theory on that

(and before anyone gets ideas, like viewer sahib, I am a sunni/hanafi too and NOT ahmedi)

Re: # 79; dawa behen

true ... though one can only make that comparison by 'venturing out' don't you reckon? I have to go but like I said many a times before, I'd love to discuss this (and other subjects of your liking) with you ... sometime soon

[[However, unfortunately, I certainly remember being treated as a "3rd Class Citizens" a few times in my own home country: Pakistan.]]

Re: # 72; dawa behen

there is a multitude of reasons for 'migration' of people ... it is an ever present phenomenon throughout the known history of man ... a lot of misconceptions I am afraid!

Re: # 70; dawa behen,
[[My salam to such life !]]

I think you meant to say "Khuda hafiz" ... right?

Re: # 147

it is not my development that is stunted though! the facts speak a different language and the message is written clearly on the wall!! ... for all to see (but for those 'blinded' by "faith")

now if you have 'work to do', go and do it! ... take it easy though and have a very nice day

Re: # 142

it is not the 'godless' that are 'inventing' the bs as you put it ... they actually "look for" the answers, admittedly don't always find them ... but keep looking nevertheless ... rather than satisfying themselves with incomprehensible bs such as you regularly produce here

and you go and have an even nicer day sir
