    arab does not = islam and islam does not = arab.

    besides, "arabic" numerals are really hindu and predate muhammed.

    they invented a whole lot of other stuff too.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inventions_in_the_Muslim_world


    "Gun: According to Encyclopædia Britannica, the Arabs "had developed the first real gun, a bamboo tube reinforced with iron, which used a charge of black powder to fire an arrow", some time before 1300.[48] A primitive gun that shoots bullets may have been developed even earlier in the 12th century, while the Anatolian Turkish Beyliks were later using guns which fire audible bullets using springs.[39] The Nesri Tarihi in the 15th century states that the Ottoman army were regularly using guns and cannons from at least 1421-1422."

    take that evangelical christians, thank a muslim.

    maybe not, but every myth i ever heard tied to the creation of the arabian horse had to do with islam, or god through the religion of islam.

    for what its worth, i grew up only hearing the south wind version.

    and that, is my useless trivia for the day.

    thats the ass of a draft horse likely. but its not an arabian. arabian horses have higher tail sets.

    yes, i am completely hijacking this thread by acknowledging i can judge a horse by what kind of butt they have. :eek::hihi:

    You don't like Christians?
    Let me just say that you could single out any group and find fault with them.
    I will point out to you that I don't and wouldn't support the few extreme right wingers who do these kind of things.

    Now that I have said that there are also terrorists on both sides of the aisle who have been responsible for bombing buildings.
    Bill Ayers and some involved in operation rescue.

    Then you have the Muslims from 9/11 and those who would want you to convert or die.
    Whoever wants to thank Muslims must have missed Bill Maher's Religulous.

    I just wanted to cover all groups and not single out just one!:)
