artsy fartsy

i really enjoyed the arts cafe last night. seeing people preform and display art is something that really inspires me. of course i've have a creative block for around 7 years now, so it frustrates me too. i wish we could do more of those kinds of things. even if we just put an actual offeratory back into the monday night service. just so we could see more of the talents in the groups shine.

oh, since nobody commented on the buddist entry i was going to put up a quote from the Koran. unfortunately my Koran is in a box under some stuff and i'm lazy.

The Cow:
[2.190] And fight in the way of Allah with those who fight with you, and do not exceed the limits, surely Allah does not love those who exceed the limits.
[2.191] And kill them wherever you find them, and drive them out from whence they drove you out, and persecution is severer than slaughter, and do not fight with them at the Sacred Mosque until they fight with you in it, but if they do fight you, then slay them; such is the recompense of the unbelievers.
[2.192] But if they desist, then surely Allah is Forgiving, Merciful.
[2.193] And fight with them until there is no persecution, and religion should be only for Allah, but if they desist, then there should be no hostility except against the oppressors.
