My name is N-Gone-Gay. It's a popular name in the Congo. I don't know what it means. Hehehehehe - Sxb as an English speaker, I can only begin to comprehend the meaning of your name. In Congo, it may as well mean: 'your Highness!' Simply, Sax. I wont

If I were to be honest and not a hypocrite man, I'd swear that we have no will for religion but culture. Unless we reach a position of honesty and self-criticism about our religiosity, there is no hope for faith but for a fight. Currently as it stands, religion is our vehecle, we travel on it expediantly.

If her presence equates summer's day, If her smiles are the morning's glow, If her soothing voice is a song in itself If her hair's darkness is a night's veil If her sigh makes the spring leaves fall Is she not like wind, sun or a song? Is she not all seasons in a single soul? If like rivers her kindness to me flows If like gold her word to my heart melts, If like dream myself in herself is lost, If like comfort my soul with her rests, Is she not more than love and hate? Is she not a cause for a man to die?

^^^^ I agree. Levels determine what is and what isnt. Originally by Viking, "J11, You are confusing sympathy and empathy with selfishness." Brother sympathy (almost of all of it) and empathy are but selfish feelings. People sympathize and help others because they don't wish to be in the situation someone suffering is in. Thus by helping, they are avoiding to 'feel bad' inside. Sympathy is the name given to the feeling we get when we relate to others' pain, while apathy is the name for when we dont. Its this ability to seperate feelings and think new terms for them that makes Humanity such a unique race. Other than that, there is nothing special about Humanity. Below are some quotes that may be relevant to this subject. -- All sympathy not consistent with acknowledged virtue is but disguised selfishness. Samuel Taylor Coleridge Sympathetic people often don't communicate well, they back reflected images which hide their own depths. George Eliot PS: Empathy is possibly tiggered by (unconscious) selfishness.

"Is altruism attainable by someone who is not a prophet?" Mutakallim, say altruism is a desired (good) thing, and for one to attain it, one must 'seek' it. In 'seeking' to attain it, one thus is in a selfish quest for that which is good. So I believe it can't be attained. Its something that has to be there to begin with, since endeavouring to attain it amounts to selfishness. "Would I be understanding you aright in making the suppostition that you believe that Humans are intrinsically selfish?" Mutakallim we are physically and spiritually in continual state because of the very act of selfishness. We can't affort to be selfless and without it we won't eat, drink, think or live.All Human acts (except prophets - though every living thing needs selfishness to survive) are selfish; the only difference between humans is the degree to which they are selfish. We are good when our selfishness is morally acceptable; bad (evil) when it is not acceptable morally. "Some acts of charity can be purely unselfish. Take for example you see an old lady wanting to cross the road but has difficulty walking; without even giving it much thought, you rush towards her, hold her hand and help her cross to the other side." Viking, is it really altruistic? Let me see if I can make helping an old lady a selfish act! If you ask me, I would say in helping the old lady, one habours vested interests. In society, when the weak is helped it is not because we are good or altruistic in nature. Its because today this weak lady needs you because you are strong; you will need the same help tommorrow from someone stronger than you as you grow weaker and older. You don't have a choice. If you don't help; those stronger than you when you are in the lady's situation wouldnt stop to help you. So you must help the old lady because of your long-term interests. If you need a clearer example, look at how selfish the new-born baby is; it cries when it needs milk. Another reason why one helps the old is to obtain instant joy in your soul. Helping makes one feel better, so when you help, you seek that good feeling and thus you are selfish. PS: That is not to mention the exceped rewards from Allah in helping a suffering Human being .

Originally by Sheherazade: It sounds like a lot of you just can't handle a woman who has it together. It's pathetic. But oh so funny... Of course we can. It is just that life is too short for it.

Nice going! Gentlemen, continue, as you were!

Insha-allah bro. Good luck with it bro, hope it fetches high marks, aamiin.

Therefore, in the words of Sayyid Qutb - (may Allah forgive him) - there are things that are not befitting. In the words of Sayyid Qutb, in his works concerning tafseer and other than it there are unbefitting words and things that are not appropriate, and not befitting that a Muslim should express and say them. Hmmm!

Delivery Boy Blues by Noonan Pizza Hut is where I slave barely making min’mum wage. Five nights a week I do toil, with my car burning gas and leaking oil. Small dogs have bit without remorse, and made the lawn an obstacle course. I die a death at each new door. I can’t take this job no more! Cruel parents revel in that game of sending kids with exact change. These are words that they should hear, I’m hoping I can make this clear: I don’t deliver for my wealth, I need insurance for my health. So do your part to spread some joy, and kindly tip your pizza boy. Source: Poetry on Poverty
