Lewinsky Stinks, Dr. Brennan Rocks:
Shalom Chaim,
Was there an Arab or Middle Eastern (")History(") Month when you were a teen attending Jamaica High School?
What advice would you give to high school kids today who, for a whole month, get shoved down their throats that Arabs were the first humans to evolve from apes and produced all other races, that all great ancient civilizations were Arab or Persian, and that the caliphs brought science and mathematics to the Middle East and got Europe out of the dark ages? How do you feel when the so-called "Israeli occupation" is compared to the slavery of negroes in the Old South?
Should right-wing students just go along with the lies their Bolshevik teachers are saying, or speak up and risk getting flunked or worse? Even more specifically, how should kids who know better react to such artistic nonsense as Arabic "spirituals" lamenting the "oppression in Palestine" when it is blasted in the classroom?
Dr. Brennan Fan
PS: Please feel free to speak in Arabonics. :laugh: :::D

Greetings Chaim. Almost every time I leave my home I end up running into low class illegal immigrants who do disgusting things. They pick their noses without tissues, sneeze and cough without covering it, leave public toilets unflushed, and often don't know to wash their hands afterward. They also take bites out of produce like tomatoes or apples then throw them back into the pile.
They also get offended sometimes that I don't know their language, which I have no connection to and therefore don't wish to learn. When I hear them speaking Spanish, sometimes I get a headache because of the choppy rhythm and loud volume of their speech.
I really, really hate them as a group, and I feel they're destroying the future I expected I would have when I was growing up. Will G-d be upset with me for hating these people, or should I not feel this way?

Does anyone in your family disagree with jtf? What aspects do they disagree and what do you tell them? If previously family members disagreed but now agree with you what aspects of jtf philosophy did they change their minds on? What have family members said to you to influence you and jtf for the better?
Thank you
Dr. Dan

Bullfighting is unfortunately still a popular spectacle in Spain, Portugal and some Southern French cities.
I find it rather interesting that the origin of this form of "entertainment" is barely discussed.
Recently I discovered a good theory about the origin of bullfighting.
Since it is practised almost only in Spain and Portugal it was the muzzies who introduced this.
So, according to this theory, what happened exactly? When the muzzies conquered the Iberian peninsula in 711 CE they put an "unbeliever" in a big arena just for entertainment. This was of course a win-win situation for the bloodthirsty muzzies: in case the unbeliever died, they were of course very happy because according to islam a non-muzzy doesn't have any value.
But even in case the bull died, it was a good thing for them, because a suffering animal doesn't have any meaning for Mohammedans.
So I have the following questions:
1. Why isn't the origin of bullfighting subject of broad accademic studies?
2. What is your personal opinion about bullfighting?
Regards
davinci
