It works! KUDOS, man!

True, but only when it's in the form of hats. Or cans. Incidentally, some years ago I worked for a time in a chocolate factory in Telford. It was in the months approaching xmas, so naturally they were making Easter eggs. At one point I was sent to collect a couple of rolls of coloured tinfoil for the wrapping machine, and very nearly dislocated my shoulders trying to pick them up; because though you don't realise it when you see it wrapped round an egg, it's still metal. I had to lug 'em round on a pump trolley and hope they didn't slide off onto someone's feet.

Verily, your version of v for vendetta variety verbiage validates your voicing of verbal validity.
Yes, kudos indeed.

Your post is verging on being contradictory as well as inaccurate. You allow that Islam accords with evolution but don't believe it anyway?

I dont like the questions which have been asked in vain . Please dont get it as an aggressive attitude , just want you to know .

I said Quran or Islam (same thing) doesnt contradict with evolution . So you cant find any information in it that opposed to the human evolution .

nineteen... so young... so pretty... so deluded...
Even if one was to admit that your qu'ran is compatible, on some weird non-canonical way, with the theory of evolution, then what?
Does that make every word in the book instantly valid?... or does it mean that the whole book has been incorrectly interpreted and must be researched further to arrive at some new field of knowledge that science hasn't been able to demonstrate, yet?

So if the Qu'ran does not contradict human evolution, but you don't believe evolution, what do you believe?

What part of my post was asked in vain? Also, I'm interested to hear how you think you're entitled to make that assessment of my intentions. If you don't want to answer my questions then fine, I can't force you; but at least pay me the courtesy of being honest about it. Please don't mistake this for an aggressive attitude either. I'm just curious.

Stimbo, dude, calm down bro!

Hey, I'm so calm I have to keep checking my pulse every five minutes just on the offchance.

FOR GOODNESS SAKE MAN WILL YOU STOP WITH YOUR WILD ANIMALISTIC AGRESSION !!

I'm sorry - I don't know what came over me. (I know, I know; that's what she said...)
