Comparative Religion

I always hear/see debates between Islam and Christianity such of Sheikh Ahmed Deedat, I was wandering if their are any debates between Islam and Jewish religion or not? If the answer is yes, may anyone provide me links if it exists on the WWW or books.

If the answer is No, why their aren't? Are people afirend to create conflict with the Jews?

Are you money conscious?

I've been wanting to post this topic since 26 Feb. 2005 based on Lil pink submarine: Miser or money conscious? post, read here below post:
This was an initial shock to me since I never considered money to be an issue. I don’t really care who pays for bills or if I end up paying more than someone else’s share of a bill.

We were at a lil chocolate Shoppe’ where we were selecting items to munch on later. I picked a few things and my friend picked other thing, but when we came to the cash register we both placed our items together. As the women on the counter started adding my friends’ items first she quickly separated her items from mine and made sure that none of my items were added onto her bill. I was shocked, since I would have gladly paid for the simple items together.

I then realized something that there are others that are very stringent with their money and can calculate shares to the biaza (cent), which never crossed my mind since I never considered money as an issue.

To me money is there to be used be it for oneself or with others, it’s a non lasting ‘value’ that does not matter or should not be a divide among people.

Seeds of thought



A person must value his money from the start (LOOK WHOSE TALKING!!) to enable to save when the money is needed more like in buying a house, car, someting valuable.

Generally people spend this money unessary without thinking about the future, people who haven't got the sense of money tend to not over look the future. The current/present circumstances is not the same at the future.

Hotel room Key Cards

I don't know how true it is, did'nt do any research before posting it, when I do, I'll lett you know my reasult.

Petite For Life / Shahad.


You know how when you check out of a hotel that uses the credit-card-type room key, the clerk often will ask if you have your key(s) to turn in...or there is a box or slot on the Reception counter in which to put them? It's good for the hotel because they save money by re-using those cards. But, it's not good for you, as revealed below.


From the Colorado Bureau of Investigation: "Southern California law enforcement professionals assigned to detect new threats to personal security issues, recently discovered what type of information is embedded in the credit card type hotel room keys used throughout the industry. Although room keys differ from hotel to hotel, a key obtained from the "Double Tree" chain that was being used for a regional Identity Theft Presentation was found to contain the following the information:
a.. Customers (your) name
b.. Customers partial home address
c.. Hotel room number
d.. Check in date and check out date
e.. Customer's (your) credit card number andexpiration date!


When you turn them in to the front desk your personal information is there for any employee to access by simply scanning the card in the hotel scanner. An employee can take a hand full of cards home and using a scanning device, access the information onto a laptop computer and go shopping at your expense. Simply put, hotels do not erase the information on these cards until an employee re-issues the card to the next hotel guest. At that time, the new guest's information is electronically "overwritten" on the card and the previous guest's information is erased in the overwriting process. But until the card is rewritten for the next guest, it usually is kept in a drawer at the front desk with YOUR INFORMATION ON IT!!!!


The bottom line is: Keep the cards, take them home with you, or destroy them. NEVER leave them behind in the room or room wastebasket, and NEVER turn them in to the front desk when you check out of a room. They will not charge you for the card (it's illegal) and you'll be sure you are not leaving a lot of valuable personal information on it that could be easily lifted off with any simple scanning device card reader. For the same reason, if you arrive at the airport and discover you still have the card key in your pocket, do not toss it in an airport trash basket. Take it home and destroy it by cutting it up, especially through the electronic information strip!

A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend. A successful woman is one who can find such a man.

Men who have pierced ears are better prepared for marriage.

Wedding season (my view)

I don’t really know when the wedding season period is at all, as I don’t really attend wedding, but I believe that now is a wedding season for some but not for all, three or four weddings took place in less then a week, some prefer doing it in summer because most of the relatives are around.

I’m starting to fill up my schedules for the month of June & the coming months, I usually plan my weekends, like a day for night girls out, cousins day, movie day, proper dinner day, etc. I usually plan a month ahead so no any clashes with other plans, family gatherings are been planned ahead of time.

Once every month or two, I go for a dinner, a proper dinner, need a break from all the junk and home food.
