Calling Islam an Abrahamic religion is pure nonsense. There is no direct lineage. He just copied some ideas and tried to create a new backstory to support it.
So you're saying that Mohammed was just a very successful equivalent of L. Ron Hubbard or Joseph Smith.
While Europe was 'going through the Dark Ages' it wasn't going through the Dark Ages. The Dark Ages is modern revisionist history. During 'The Dark Ages' scholars in monasteries all over Europe were studying and transferring knowledge to each other. It didn't all just pop out of nowhere in the Renaissance.
The production of cement, one of the main ingredients in concrete, generates an estimated 5 percent of the world's carbon emissions. Trees, in contrast, capture CO2, helping offset emissions produced by a typical building process.
It sounds like dead trees aren't such a bad idea after all.
The idea can be carried forward to things like books. Why read obsolete and impermanet ebooks when you can, for often the same price, get a book printed on paper? The paper book encourages tree production, which captures CO2, helping offset emissions produced by server farms and the factories producing ebook readers.
And if apple thinks they are going to design their own base-band chip set, they're going to be paying qualcomm royalties directly again.
The guy that Apple fired last week because his daughter videoed the Iphone X was an RF Design engineer. So they are headed the wrong way if they want to roll their own radio hardware. RF Design Engineers aren't pumped out like Javascript hacks by the thousands. Good RF Design engineers can write their own ticket.
A blog post 'discredits' something that has not and never will happen? You have a rather frisky imagination. Have you considered contacting Amazon? They publish a lot of stuff these days as eBooks that in the old days would have had to be self-published.
Apparently you've never turned on a television or opened a newspaper in your life.
I turned on the Television, but quickly discovered that the material you can view there is called 'programs.' I didn't really want to get programmed.
And no, I am not interested in buying a copy of your newspaper. Have you tried selling it on the mall down by the Student Union? Lots of gullible freshmen there...
Russia told my dog to bug me because she wants to go out for a walk. Those damned Russians, stirring shit up. It's cold out there and I don't WANT to take her for a walk today!
(it's easy at this point in history to suss out a whole bunch of fucking idiots. They're the 'Blame Russia' crowd, the people calling people they disagree with 'comrade' or 'Ivan.' Total fucking idiots, wind-up morons set loose to annoy the rest of us.)
The Clintons are the ones who should be worried about Mueller's actual investigation. Not because of Mueller's intent, of course (never!!) but because of the side effects of all the looking into things that is coming out.
Also, the 'birther' thing originated from Hillary Clinton's primary campaign against Obama. Yes, it's boring arcana and nothing new with regard to the Clinton Crime Family, but it's the deal.
Their whole point will eventually be the pike their head is mounted on.
Fuck speculators. I'm not a Communist, but it is hard not to cheer when you learn that the Communists in the early USSR implemented capital punishment for speculators.
Right. I know. It's all about freedumb. Freedumb to shift beans around on a gameboard while skimming wealth from the poor fucks who actually produce something in their daily work.
It's probably no more of a loss than going to a jewelry store and buying her a diamond at full retail. If you've got it and it makes her happy, spend it.

Our dormitories in the company towns are not ready yet. When they are, our commute will be four floors down from our cell to our cubicle.
The broadband connectivity will be awesome. And we'll be able to go outdoors into the courtyard every other Sunday.

Mohammed married his child bride when she was 5 years old, not 20-30. He had plenty of actual women to direct his attention to until she grew older.
Well, to be fair, no Iranians are Arabs. They are Persians.

But you have to acknowledge that there is meddling of some sort going on in the East.
Those pesky meddling Russians! Why can't they just get with the rest of us and let the NSA protect all of us. It would be so much better.
Psst. The secret is: It was pushed along by the Catalonians.

So has that paranoid freak who runs infowars.com.
For years now. He spins up so much fluff it almost seems like he's running a cotton candy machine.
Wow. We have a True Communist here. "Russia was never Communist, they didn't even get it dirty. We can stiiiiillll try it if we want! Can we? Can we?"
What are you, a fucking Trotskyite?
I take it your solution is that 'journalists' should need to show their credentials before being allowed to say anything in public.
You and Kim Jong Un have some interesting ideas. Do you have a newsletter I can subscribe to?
Are you talking to yourself again, A.C.?

When your gears are all ground up, will you then STFU? Because your phony patriotism is starting to smell funny.
And what worries the marketing critters is any end of said stupidity.

Yes, Apple wants to control the trusted data, and maintain the relationship of trust with their customers.
They don't want anybody else to have that. It's pure gold for them.

The sad thing is when it seems like Apple is cashing in on that goodwill, rather than building on it. We shall see.
I was so disappointed with what they did to Jabba the Hut in The Wrath of Khan. I couldn't even watch the whole episode.
