i mean are they all the same people just on different side of the borders, with different cultures, and language? do they see themselves as distant cousins?

I went into surgery a couple of months ago, and they were going to give me an male Indian surgeon. I requested to see a white male, and got called both sexist and racist. Isn’t it my right as a patient, to request a doctor that I trust, and with whom I feel comfortable, without being criticised for it? I would not trust my life in the hands of any woman, or any non-white male. Isn’t that my right and preference?

Are ‘Brown’ people offended by this word? Or is it usually offensive to people of african descent?

I’ve been a shy person almost all my life around alot of people not ALL but alot. I feel more comfotable talking to people when i text and write because i have more time to think about things before i say it without saying things that dont make sence. My voice gets soft when i talk to people because i feel self conscious about the way i talk and my voice because i have a accent and i’m afraid people won’t understand what i’m talking about.

The ones whose faith is Islam.

I know how to read and write in Arabic, unfortunately I dont understand the language :( What are some good ways to pick up on Arabic quickly?

I have heard people say that it’s a victory mosque and and that it’s disrespectful. I have heard other people say that they should feel free to worship as they please and I agree with that but I can’t help but think that this is disrespectful to build it so close to ground zero. From two blocks away you will be able to hear the music and chanting coming from the mosque. Isn’t that eerie? What are your opinions on this?

I don’t get why certain religions get special treatment at schools.
You don’t see Jehovah’s Witnesses getting holiday breaks, but you do Christians. Are certain religions considered more important than other in the school system or something?
How do you feel atheists? Should we even HAVE time off for religions? Shouldn’t everyone just take their own time to do their religious practices and not jeopardize their children’s education? Why should ALL children miss school JUST so a CERTAIN group of people can worship their God? It doesn’t make any sense to me! Your thoughts?

Hi, Recently ive been seeing alot of cheerleading stuff. And I wanted to know what kind of flip is the one that you go forward but you use your arms. They somehow touch the floor and than do the flip.

I need to know some names of mythical creatures that are half human for a story i’m writing at school. They need to be creatures that people know. It will be a romance story but my intention is not to copy from Twilight. Any ideas will help!
The ideas have to fit in to the idea of this story in romance, same idea as the movie Twilight but not completely.
