[quote author=Truthsetsfree link=topic=9459.msg121940#msg121940 date=1289378720] You talk as if everything Arab is bad, well, I beg to differ: what about Arabic music, calligraphy, poetry, philosophy etc. and I believe the Arabic language to be ever…

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-11724378 The attacks against Christians have started again. Please remember them in your prayers. Personally, I would encourage the Christians to leave. I would hav…

Hi John2000, No worries, i never interpreted your tone as hostile whatsoever. This thread is totally subjective anyway: Im asking who "feels" that they are "Arab" ? Its a feeling. Concerning the shabka.. this prayer is HARDLY done anymore. In fac…

[quote author=peterfarrington link=topic=9459.msg121906#msg121906 date=1289339518] Thanks for the interesting posts Zoxasi and John. Just a note that the dowry was paid in England until the end of the 19th century, and it was designed to provide a …

Hello, No. Arabic doesn't define me personally. Although I was born in Egypt, the term Arab, as far as I'm concerned is what a Yemeni, a Qatari, a Saudi, and a palestinian would identify themselves as. These are arabs. Now, let's ask ourselves if …

[quote author=peterfarrington link=topic=9970.msg121891#msg121891 date=1289313672] I am not sure what you mean about 'only we were on the MECC'? [/quote] Sorry Fr.. it was my mistake. I made a typo. I meant to have said : I thought we were ON the M…

[quote author=peterfarrington link=topic=9459.msg121884#msg121884 date=1289306875] Why do you think it is derogatory, rather than just mistaken, to call you an Arab Christian? [/quote] Well, that's an interesting question. I feel it is derogatory, …

[quote author=John_S2000 link=topic=9459.msg121880#msg121880 date=1289300223] 'European' and 'Arab' are not nationalities, are they? They are two of the big mankind groups that populate the Earth all of them being the descendants of the first man an…

Nationality wise, I am European! THANK GOD! But if I wasn't European, I'd definately be ashamed, if not embarassed to be considered an "arab". Does anyone else feel this way??
