If you're not supposed to ride faster than your guardian angel can fly then mine had better get a bloody SR-71.

Islam is one of the sub-groups of religion that can spawn Literal Satanists, yeah. You have to accept belief in Satan to be this type of Satanist (yes I know that modern satanism is not representative of this). Only so many books you can open and find that old dragon nowadays.

Indeed it varies. I invite you to go up into the arctic circle, where the sun set can occur 6 month after sun rise. Happy starving to death for Allah.

Rayaan has already explained this. The provisions of a cosmic mandate are subject to local variations in angle of orientation, due to the orbit of the earth. You shouldn't be living where these commandments cannot be followed. At the very least, you should consider a move. (Packs his bags for Alaska)

Yeah, you could just move to a part of the earth with very little sunlight during Ramadan and pretty much avoid the "fasting" all together!

Ramadam, minus the superstition, is a way of eradicating addictions. There is nothing mystical about it and it has nothing to do with devils. You can lose addictions using will power. Or you can be a muslim and have will power replaced with life-long spoon-fed toilet training from the nanny. But that would make life so dull.

Damn muslims, if they would only accept christ's teachings and lose all the superstitious baggage eh Hannah.

No food nor water for about 16 hours (from 4:20 A.M to 8:15 PM).

It's kind of hard, though, especially in this hot weather in August. But I'm used to it and time seems to go really fast when I'm fasting. And we have to do this for a month.

Ramadan pictures from last year:

Why do you have to do it? It makes no sense.
HuhA man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
