The Sikhs seem pretty cool
Kinda like Jedi
A punch up
There's no a Sikh in Scotland that could batter me.

Muhammad married Aisha when she was six and consummated the marriage at nine, according to the Quran and hadith. Most of the others on the list were done to secure political alliances. Muhammad being a ***** wasn't the worst thing about him; claiming he had visions from God and angels and using that as casus belli to destroy neighbouring Arab tribes was why he was a twat. He was an opportunistic caravan merchant-turned-warlord and nowt much else. Couldn't read or write.

A Hari-Krishna could knock your block off, so I've heard.
Then we are in agreement for the most part, I said as much already and I was being sarcastic, I knew full well you were not saying the Koran was evil, I just wanted you to say it.
Books as I said, are only as bad as the people who are influenced by them. I care not a jot for religion, but I would never deride anyone who takes comfort in it or practices it.
Thanks Dev - I'll light a candle for you on Sunday
He hasn't died has he?
