I love how Infinite's change of heart came after I mentioned the folk and rock influence.No worries Brian, his African influence is much greater on this record than any rock influence. Sadly there are no songs about killing the white man, but he doesn't make fun of modern America's gang rap culture; "If I rhyme about home and got descriptive, I'd make 50 look like Limp Bizkit". That's gotta be worth something.Out of curiosity, what one song did you hear?

also brian do you go to mosque, are you officially converted? are you welcome at the mosque?

I think muslims are a danger to Freedom across the world and dont deserve to have nuclear capabilities in predominately muslim countries.

Prayer in the mosque is 27 times more valuable then prayer by oneself, because in the mosque we pray side by side, and this is how the social awareness takes hold of us. As a group you can achieve much greater spiritual hieghts than one could ever achieve on their own. The hearts become united through congregational prayer.

When you are a convert to Islam, you kind recieve a celebrity status in the mosque. It's not just me, Muslims love converts in general, and it's always been that way in Islam.Allah sends out a command for Muslims to enjoin prayer at 5 points in the day. So that they are continually reminded of their Creator, and thus, they can remain on the straight path towards Allah.

The muslim leaders I spoke to told me differently. They say praying is something you do for Allah, and nobody or nothing else. It's the individual that supposedly reaches spiritual heights during the prayer - it's all about the individidual's spirit and his contact with Allah. Besides that, I wonder what definition you use for 'social awareness'.I'm not a muslim, so I can't tell from experience, but isn't all of that rather contradictory to what you just said?

Nevermind, he's not as great as I thought.. I just listened to one song and made a thread about it.
