This is news how, exactly?
Maybe to you it's nothing new, but to others it totally is.
A lot believe the mainstream media & its negative image about Arabs & Muslims.
Lots of people believe muslims live in caves & don't know anything.
I was trying to spread awareness that this is false.
I happen to know, back in Melbourne, a very good Muslim doctor, and he is absolutely brilliant.
I also know of a case from the UK a few years ago where female Muslim medical students who refused to wear short-sleeved scrubs because it was against their religion, thereby putting their religious beliefs above the welfare of their patients (there are reasons why scrubs are short sleeved).
So yes, good and bad among the religious.
Dying to live, living to die.
