12 head,

Why is it that not ONE of your heads even has a semblance of intelligence?!. I know doctors arent the most intelligent people on earth. But I cant, for the life of me, understand how you became a doctor.

More amazing than that...how the HELL do you reconcile living in a society whose dominant value system contradicts your own?! I`ve always marvelled at how guys like you, Urstruly, F-K etc CHOOSE to live in the US?

It cant be money--heck your talents will fetch a better price in the oil-rich gulf!
It cant be for ``spiritual`` satisfaction....not in a society whose values are so alien to you!
It cant be for ``political`` reasons..not when the US is declaring a ``cold war`` with the Islamic world you cherish so much....

So what is it?! hahn, that keeps you in Amrika?!!
Amrika ALLOWS guys like you to live here, even if you hate its values...as long as you dont ``f*ck with them`` by breaking their laws..ergo..you are doing it entirely by FREE WILL!!!...

I`m wasting my time...I realise...because this question has NEVER been answered by guys like you. In all the time I`ve been on Chowk, I`ve asked this question REPEATEDLY...either its met with stony silence; or a ``bob & weave`` answer like quoting Iqbal or some gol-mal logic that belongs in another dimension...the type you display so often...

Please reflect upon this..even if you dont have the courage to give me a straight answer....I pity guys like you...atleast Naqsbandhi openly says he`s going back to Pakistan...he`s a fool, but atleast he`s not a hypocrite...

...
If you want to breave for numbers dead breave for 36,ooo American dead by self inflicted drunk driving in last 3 years

Oh no .....Non muslims would rather die for there idolatory ,right to drink


The drunk driving % has been constantly increasing taking more than 35000 lives in last 3 years.


2000 saw the LARGEST% increase in the % & actual number of DEAD from drunk driving ...... ]

I wonder how much of total driving deaths is attributable to other intoxicants or other medical conditions like diabetes or hypoglycemia etc or even driving after a sumptuous Biryani lunch? How much is attributable to stimulants? Popular belief is that stimulants increase alertness. No one has systematically kept track of driving deaths info or else we would have info like this. Probably we would be able to say that after taking any rich spicy dish containing rice and lots of fat we should wait for (say) 2 hours before we are alert enough for driving. May be such info could debunk scientific mythology about stimulants and what not. A person can self administer alertness test and figure out what works for him and what hurts his alertness. But there is a limit to which this has any utility. Those who are idolatrous will remain such. I guess some people will remain what they are no matter what. You like Biryani you will eat Biryani for a million years.
