California should invite 100k Muslims to a celebration in the Rose Bowl.

 

100000 muslims together in one place.

In the USA that would not be good for those 100k Muslims. Not good at all. You'd have a buncha misinformed nut cases like Cop and Balco showing up with cars full of ammunition...

Reds are still sore from their last confrontation on this soil. More bluster than bullet. When you take a beating of that magnitude, your kinfolk are more likely to build bunkers to hide in than to ever fight again. Evolution at its finest. Reds learned that, in order to survive, they must go underground. Mother Nature is a mad scientist, Jerry.

Oh yes, we should be more aware about Muslims. Brilliant article about Muslims, written by a Muslim -

Roughly half of the world’s illiterate adults are Muslims, and two-thirds of that number are women. Greece, with a population of 11 million, translates more books from other languages into Greek than the entire Arab world, which has a cumulative population of 360 million, does into Arabic. More books are published in Danish, the mother tongue of 5.6 million people, than in Urdu, which is the language of at least 300 million South Asian Muslims. Since the 9th century, when the Abbasid rulers of Baghdad patronized learning and built a huge library for its time, only 100,000 books have been translated from other languages into Arabic. The same number of books are translated from other languages into Spanish every year.

 

 

An open discourse among Muslims about their decline might identify the reasons why the Ottoman and Mughal empires refused to accept the printing press for more than two and a half centuries after Johannes Guttenberg invented movable type. It might also explain why Muslims failed to embrace the Industrial Revolution, modern banking, insurance, and the joint stock company, even after these had emerged in Europe. Instead, most of the discussion focuses on real or perceived historical injustices. “We are weak because we were colonized,” Muslims tend to say, instead of recognizing that Muslim lands were colonized because they had become weak.

 

The most glaring insufficiency across the Muslim world is the gender gap, or the gender deficit. Women are excluded from the work-force in many countries around the world, but the practice is far more visible in the Middle East, North Africa, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Indonesia.
