    Well Well Well looks like some people have shown their true colours………………….

    Quoting Matt

    ‘’I think it was originally to do with a battle/war involving tricks being played on Muslims’’

    You think…???????.And u maybe wrong...well it turns out that you are…………

    April fool’s Day and its origins……………………………

    ‘Ancient cultures, including those as varied as the Romans and the Hindus, celebrated New Year's Day on April 1

    Many French Refuse…………………………..

    In 1564 France adopted the reformed calendar and shifted New Year's Day to Jan. 1. However, many people either refused to accept the new date, or did not learn about it, and continued to celebrate New Year's Day April 1.

    Other people began to make fun of these traditionalists, sending them on "fool's errands" or trying to trick them into believing something false.1

    Matt if you’’ think ‘’then don’t post…if you’’ know’’ then by all means do…

    Quotes suicide slut
    1) ‘’Anti-Islamic feeling is just a wonderful side effect of the war on terror.’’

    Thank you for admitting you are a racist and that you’re proud of it.

    2) ‘’Muslims in Iran stone people to death’’

    People who are stoned to death are done so as it is a death sentence to those who are guilty of a crime / sin that carries such a sentence. The reason for ‘stoning ‘ is because the law that the sentence follows commands that to be carried out… and that law was passed 1400 years ago… and such a law can not be changed and so that is y u have your ‘lethal injection and electrocution and the Islamic states have ‘stoning’.

    Quotes JustPlainME
    ‘’beside the fact that they are all terrorists who wear towels on their heads.’’

    I am a Muslim are u accusing me of being a terrorist?

    There are two billion Muslims.... That’s 1/3 of the world’s population ……

    And I assure you the majority of us do NOT wear a towel over our head. Please do not make racist remarks or cast judgment on a religion you clearly do not have any knowledge of.

    i can remember after 9/11

    When some of the americans went all 'anti-islamic' and a guy got shot and murdered from it.

    the murders thought he was a muslim as he looked like he was wearing a 'towel' on his head.
    But the thing is he was a Sikh a different religion. He was wearing a turban.

    just goes to show how peopl know little about Islam :P and cant differentiate between to distintly different religions.

    Hussain,

    Jimena asked Matt what the origin of April Fools is. He told her what he thought it was, he said he may be wrong and encouraged her to look it up on google.

    Correcting him is fine, but there is nothing wrong with what he posted.

  • hussain

    he made a statement which if u read further fueled and triggered racist remarks from others....the orginal answer he gave was wrong.......and if he wasnt sure he should have googled it himself ..but obviously he coudnt be arsed.

  • BaybeBlew

    He was defending Muslims!
    "that's racist...it actually has nothing to do with Muslims or the religion/culture/people in general :)"

    "that too is racist against Muslims. If you're gonna say it say it directly not presuppose that you don't like Muslims.

    "Personally, I have no problem with them. They are less ignorant and arrogant than us anyway..."

    Just because his statement triggered racist remarks does not mean it was wrong of him to make the statement.

    You spelled original wrong.

    Slut: There are also many great muslims, such as Arafat was.

    Just like a terrorist to gain the popular vote of the English teenage masses.

    Three words for you, Slut; Palistinian Liberation Organisation.

    Not only was Yasser Arafat not great, he was a murderer. Now he's a martyr. Go figure.

    I knew a few GREAT Muslims, they were in the Kuwaiti Army. We played five a side footy a few times and although we didn't speak each other's language we spoke the language of footy. May God bless them and theirs.

    The muslims I know at home aren't great, they are just like me and everyone else I know.

    i said his statement was 'wrong' as in -innaccurate.

    i never said 'it was wrong to make the statement'

    and i know he was defending the muslims. so for that i thank him.

    ps.i dont care about my spelling not like its an english essay thats going to get handed in to be marked. :P

    ''think ‘’then don’t post…if you’’ know’’ then by all means do

    i cant find the words 'it was wrong to make that statment' in that quote and it was not what i was saying...that is merely your interpretation of it.

    but the statment he made would offend some muslims.. oh an i would know because i am one of them.

    ''think ‘’then DON'T POST…if you’’ know’’ then by all means do

    Don't post...Why shouldn't he post it?

    "I think it was originally to do with a battle/war involving tricks being played on Muslims"

    How is that offensive to you?

    Wow...people played tricks on muslims...those bastards. If it were 'canadians' or 'christians' instead of muslims I wouldn't have been offended. So why would you be?

  • hussain
    20 years ago

    he was basically saying muslims were fools.....and that they named April fools day after them. and that is offensive..an i said it would offend some muslims.........meaning not all...... his statment was wrong(innaccurate) totally wrong(innacurate) ........ as for

    ''think ‘’then DON'T POST…if you’’ know’’ then by all means do

    ur quote is wrong i didnt capslock. anyway.. i was saying if ur not sure if somthing is true....y post it ? and if he told the girl to google it cos he was not sure he should have googled it himself ??? to find out for sure...????? before posting ???

    u also clearly fogot wot this part of the quote meant ..............

    ''you’’ know’’ then by all means do''

    i also said..'by all means do' just to clarify ..that means POST!

  • BaybeBlew

    That is the most retarded thing I've ever heard.

    April fools day...a day to fool someone. He said it was a war when people go around playing tricks on each other...Thats not offensive at all, you're warping his statement to make it seem racist.

    I caps locked to make a point, you should re-read my last posts. Its none of your business why he didn't google it, he stated that it may not be true and she should find out for herself. There is nothing wrong with that.

  • BaybeBlew

    You mean I forgot, with a 'r', and the word 'what' has an 'h' and an 'a' in it.

    Actually I didn't forget.

    i was born and raised in the 'west' so does make me igonrant ? no i am not ignarant of others cultures.
    i was brought up with my culture tought to respect others and treat them as equals.

    its not where your from its the culture that has raised you.
    and many people in the west as you said are ignorant and self centred
    not only that they are uneducated and lack understanding of others cultures, religion and beliefs.

    there is a stereotypical image of the muslims and it is a inaccurate to say the least.

    it is nothing to do with pride......if you carried on as a muslim matt you will have learned..that as a muslim you can not have not even an ounce of pride in you. so i did not post that original post out of pride as only to outline the faults of others.
