Although I'm no Muslim myself, I will try to intercede for the muslim Wikipedians. To all Muslims: Please don't take offense personally. Stay calm and occasionally drop a word, which will hopefully wear away the stone in the end. Raphael1 01:00, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  31. Torero 23:46, 11 August 2006 (UTC) - Firm believer that all religion, and Islam in particular, is fascism in principle. Stresses the idea that muslims may keep their fairytales to their own minds just as any other may do.[reply]
