I actually fell for your first sentence…but hey, i’m sure if you studied the languages you would pick them up fast, you are a prodigy child!

I do have one question though. What do you consider hardcore? In terms of religion…

The reason I ask is because

1.) I had this conversation earlier with my cousin
2.) I like intellectual conversations and who better to have one with than Mr. Genius himself!

So today (i’m sorry if I’m boring you!) My cousin and I were discussing dogs, and basically they are considered “non-clean” in Islam, which means we avoid them.

And she has two dogs, and we are going to stay at her place during break, so I was telling her to keep the dogs away from me.

This is when she went crazy on me and decided to tell me that I’m a “extremist muslim”

To be honest, I was shocked. I think I have a long way to go until I get to that! I view an extremist as someone who covers their head, prays 5 times a day, is terrified of the western world, etc… But I guess its subjective.

So that is where my question arises. In terms of religion what do you consider hardcore and/or where do you stand?

I’m shocked Rizwana. I thought you knew that I spoke Hindi, Gujarati, Arabic, Russian, and Swahili along with all the relevant dialects fluently. Haha, nah, my parents speak broken Hindi-Gujarati-English at home so I’m capable of understanding most of the language but can’t speak it. The words just don’t come to me. And yeah, about the pig thing, since it’s just excluding one form of meat, then it’s not a big real; however, some hardcore Hindus are strict vegetarians. That just seems like a nutritional impairment if you ask me.

Rishi, I must say this blog was pretty enjoyable. BTW, I dont think many ppl think your a disgrace, because to my knowledge, most hindus these days eat chicken and fish now. Of course, i think they do it because its “fashionable” rather than nutrition reasons. I mean c’mon…the fact that aishwariya rai eats chicken is enough to turn some the non-veg. way. LOL…

Of course, I’m not hindu, so I’m only telling of my personal experiences (i’m sure you know the demographics more!)

Btw, do you understand/speak hindi? (the murghi thing)

And I’m glad “Oscar” put an “lol” after his last comment, because as a practicing muslim, and the pig thing, I would have had to start a religious arguement with him.

You made me laugh, bro. I am the same way, if it’s edible and tastes good, I eat it. Salads are for rabbits. I eat all types of meat, fish, cow, pig, even goat, deer, and rabbit. We have canine teeth for a reason. I also get sad when i see people cannot eat bacon due to their religion, dude…they are missing out on GOOD stuff. lol
