#7  Hell Valentines day is Valentines day. I never put any religious significance to it. WTF?

I guess there is after reading all of this, but I for one say who gives a rats a**. It gets tiring having folks get their panties in a bunch over such stupid crap all the time. Or their "little sheet heads" in a bunch heh.
That's one of the big problems over in the Middle East associating religion with politics.

"Muslims are prohibited from observing and celebrating this occasion. Muslims are encouraged to live with love and affection among the Ummah, according to Islamic guidelines."
and we all know how loving and affectionate Muslimes are.
How dare you make such a comment incinuating that those that do celebrate Valentines day only observe love on one day of the year.

"Affection between two individuals will not last long if they lack affection towards Allah the Almighty. While mankind's affection towards Allah is based on faith and piety, Allah's affection towards mankind is universal and everlasting."
How dare you label other religions other than your own as less worthy. F*** Y**.

"Muslim teenagers should possess strong faith, resilience in soul, possess national identity...."
Yeah for all muslimes in America lets not assimilate, lets keep our national identity.

end rant oh, and happy valentines day ;)

#4  Well, it's not for Jews either, but we would rather get blowjobs from our women than be in the good graces of our rabbis.

#2  What about the St. Valentine's Day Massacre? Though that wasn't Moslems, it was in the spirit of Islam.
