Girls Gone Wild #510, only way Zeena can be on the shariah bench with Urstruly and Zeemax is if she grows a male organ by tomorrow.:-) impossible!!

The Secret Is: Don’t Worry, Buy Happy `` I do not see much difference between the logic of the evangelists in The Secret and the people who send emails about how they can see the verses of the Quran in squash or signs of the moon separating as per Mohammed’s vision. ``


let us hope (not The Secret style though) once the ``Secrect`er`` imagines getting the car: he probably won`t get it. but if he does get it (he might still have good credit score for all we know) he will happily drive it off and enjoy it and hopefully not imagine people falling under his car and getting cured of cancer and aids. :-)

I saw this `phenomenon` reviewed in news segment og one of our local channels few weeks ago (or when the book came out I guess)...once the reporter finished, the 2 Newscasters made snide remarks on the whole thing. something they won`t dare to do to ``squash`ers`` :)


``There are perhaps two kinds of spiritualists. The first are the few who can humbly face the truth, that our desires are our weakness and then tell us how to be authentic. The rest are the hypocrites who will lie, cheat and/or kill to fulfill their own desires while talking about the greatness of god. ``

this first group does sound like Santa Baba Sharmshaan Singh ji Pehowa`walay...but then again he was caught with a girl in the basement of his dera during one of his DirectConnect sessions:-)

Pakistans Permanent Revolution #308...but you sure run like a gidhaR at the prospect of competing with this sardarji.:-)

Pakistans Permanent Revolution :-) You got a point there. but why is it even under discussion till today by some people ...that was my point. (yes it is debated on the internet even today)

Pakistans Permanent Revolution Establish Nizam-e-Mustafa by Friday, March 9, or Else

---

Even if you accept them to be on the right path and Mushy to be on the wrong one....are these guys out of their minds to suggest a half-kafir like Musharraf could establish a true Sharia/Mustafa system in a week even if he wanted to do so?..dudes you guys have been trying to establish that mustafa and sharia thingie for last 1400 years with all those millions of ghazis and shaheed gone on the way and you are no closer to deciding whether one should really wash his ass with left hand or right after so many centuries......and now Musharraf is going to establish mustafa for you in a week?

Industrial Dieting: The Myth and the Madness Couple of years ago I bought a pedometer and with great enthusiam had it around my waist the whole day to discover to my utter dismay that I have taken less than 2500 steps from the time I dressed us (which was 15 mins after I woke up:-) ) until I went back to bed..hardly a distance of 1 mile.
Lot of people have lifestyle like that...I can`t believe any kind of diet with such people until they change that habbit and move their butt a little. fortunately I was never overweight more than 15-20 lbs. but I did take it as warning and since then try to walk a bit more or jog or sit on the excercise bike.

last year I tried Atkins in a crude way - my way. I did not change anything other than no bread/roTi for about 6 weeks. That alone brought me in shape. but it is very hard for me to aprt from my naan and tandoori roTis at the local Pak joint. so slowly i have got that back. this time I relying wholy on excercising and cutting down on bread, naan and roTi to a level where I don`t feel I am missing anything. It is working slowly...I think this is more sustainable than aggressive over ambitious goal of last year.

Most people are fat because they are lazy, low self-esteem and lack discipline in their lives. They don`t need any special diet..they need discipline and excercise.

Teaching Science Badly – and Well Zeena, look, I am an Engineer and I work with scientists and some scientists turned engineers.. let me tell you there is a difference in a scientist and an engineer. There are some engineers who are good scientists and there are some scientists who are good engineers. but most engineers, doctors, MDs, are really technicians who use science to invent products and perform services. Majority of MDs die without putting forward a single scientific theory or making a scientifc discovery not known before.

Teaching Science Badly – and Well I think the larger point that Dr PH is making is that the education system due to excessive interfence and influence of the religious dogma does not encourage students to pursue science and other academic subjects with inquisitive mind with a structured logical approach. Student is encouraged from young age to accept the ``text`` as a fact without questioning it. That leads to a culture of ``ratta`` education that many of us have grown up with. This more or less applies to both countries although religious dogma is not big part of the education system in India as it is in Pakistan.

My feeling is the cultures that believe in the concepts like ``word of God`` or routine recitation and acceptance of religious scriptures are more prone to above behaviour. Here is the knowledge from the highest source and here are you the receiver who is supposed listen to it, accept it without any doubt, repeat it and practice it. Reapeating and practicing of this knowledge alone is supposed to bear the fruits. Since practicing is harder than repeating or reciting we eventually fall in this trap where our mind starts believing that mere reciting this knowledge is enough...questioning, investigating and improving the body of knowledge takes the back seat. This applies as much to us Sikhs as it applies to Muslims...Brahmins on the other hand made a creative use of these recitals of the text as a tool to make earnings and livelyhood in this life (unlike just doing so to improve the prospects of the next life)..so they may be little better off in this sense than us.:-)

Teaching Science Badly – and Well #12 what a master piece!! great job ahmedmadani.:-)
