If I look at the Babylonian captivity, the Trail of Tears, WWII, the Arab-Israeli wars and modern Moslem terrorism then Allah sure is one ugly SOB!!!:p  Is it any wonder the black twin to the Taj Mahal was never built on the opposite side of the river?  There seems to be a bit of an imbalance in the strivings for the ideal life and the actions of those who do great evil in its name.:(

Oh, there are online RPGs based on Discworld that have been going since I think arpanet. People have met and got married in real life from them.

So there indeed may be. I love the fights that keep breaking out between the wizards and the priests in the novels.

LOL. I only PDF'd all the books (may be mising one or two of the most recent). Fun reading and I can crank the font. Besides, when my anthill inside dies (and it's already doing - ugh), I'm going Mac.

I've been religiously avoiding World of Warcraft for the same reason as you, though!

But here's something you might really like - and I bet, like me, you will be able to read it without difficulty - enjoy! :D

I started off poorly on this thread,  i copied and pasted sunstantial parts from submission.org, thinking they sounded amazing, but i agree it gives the impression that what I was talking about concerning the mathematical code found in the Quran, sounded no different to the ELS codes found in any given book, be it fiction or real.  I read the article or the link you provided, and to tell the truth it has confused me, especially the apparant code 19 appearing in the first paragraph of the Constitution of USA, however in my defence or in the defence of code 19, i have to rely on the mysticism and the esoteric meaning of the signature of God being based on  the number 19.  What is the underlying meaning that 19 represents, and simply 1 represent s the first, and 9 represents the last,  which is how they describe GOD, the First and the Last.

Again i am going to have to copy and paste, because I think you need to read this, but i wont i'll just give you the link, and if you think it isn't worth the effort or that you have a life so wont bother, then your loss.

Basically it talks about how the word one in arabic, wahid, appears nineteen times in nineteen difference verses to describe God's unity or to characterize God as One, and the geomatric value of the word wahid is 6+1+8+4=19.

19 can be seen as one also, because if you were to add, 1+9=10= 1+0=1

Ok so certain things exist that obiviously few people either know or care about.  It seems to have no value for Jews today other then "oh how interesting."

We are called the people of the book-meaning many things.  One of which is not the Koran.

It is nice that for a Muslime the face of G-d/Allah is all over the place-but that belongs in a Muslim thread not here.

There are places on beliefnet for all of us,  You do not have to create controversy just to create controverys on places where another religon is being either discussed, having dialog about, and is not a part of the faith community to which you are actually speaking about.

How Rude!!!!!!
