@zaeyim i had 3 muslim friends who "explained" islam to me, i also read several passages form that book. the more you learn about it from an objective standpoint the more is sounds like any other religion out there, that being enshrined myths. Islam lacks honest criticism my guess because it is p...

@ramio1983 Question then, as far as integration and democratic flourishing, how does Islam compare to Christianity, Agnosticism, and Atheism.

  @ramio1983 "The beauty of Islam is that it thrives in democracy" - show me one example... I would say, Islam is antithetical to democracy, hence the fact that every Islamic state is in such bad shape. Sharia destroys freedoms that are fought for in a true democratic society.

Zicam disproves homeopathy

If homeopathy worked, Zicam would be too weak to do anything. Turns out it's strong enough to destroy your sense of smell. Story: http://www.nytime...

Hey Z-

When you are arguing against homeopathy you have to either argue from reality, or from their own philosophy.

So for example, if a person actually had a side effect from the drug, the homeopathy "doctor" would say, "oops, I may have diluted the solution too much, and made it TOO strong"......
