first feast

 

Ramadan is the ninth month of the Muslim calendar. It is during this month that Muslims observe the Fast of Ramadan. Lasting for the entire month, Muslims fast during the daylight hours and in the evening eat small meals and visit with friends and family. It is a time of worship and contemplation. A time to strengthen family and community ties.

 

 

According to the Islamic Society of North America the first day of fasting for Ramadan 2006 is expected to be September 23rd and in egypt and most of arab country on 24 September.

i want from someone jew here tell me about this feast like my speech

I wish you all happy ramadan :)

happy ramadan :D

 

but... isnt it bad because u cant eat, drink and do all sorts of stuff?

no one actually celebrates yom kippur... when we fast (not that i do, but the ppl who do...).

It's also for a new beginning- to make up for all the bad things u did during the passing year and to apologize to ppl who u owe an apology

So did you apologise to anyone??:thinking:

first of all, yom kippur is next week

second of all, i dont really take yom kippur seriously. It has a nice idea, but i think ppl get really hypocritical when it comes.

all the ppl who dont give a shit about religion are fasting, and not doing anything they're not suppose to (like turn on electricity etc.). But where were u the whole year? Suddenly it's yom kippur and you're a saint??

 

:rolleyes:

I agree. Plus I also know some Muslims who get out of fasting during Ramadan by giving money to the poor instead.

Anyway, I feel that all religions are about control and power. Throughout history they've been used to keep people in check and as an excuse to conquer and invade.

I think places of worship can be useful from a community and charity perspective, but that's about it.;)

And yes - religions are overflowing with hypocrites.;)

i totally agree... relegion seems to be the cause of most of this world's problems...

and u dont need to tell me about hypocrits in relegion- i live in one of the most religious cities in the world and u have no idea how horrible they are. Relegious jews wearing all black are checking girls out in the bus stations?? It really disgusts me

 

and i think that's the first time u give me an answer that's longer than one sentence! :rolleyes:

When there's something worth saying, I say it!!;)

 

What really disgusted me was on a one-day excursion to Israel there were people

queuing up to pay a priest (?) for a "blessing" in Bethlehem and then we were driven to this horribly tacky tourist shop full of "holy" souvenirs made in China etc.

It really left a bad taste in the mouth and I couldn't wait to get away.;)
