Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. :-)

"Can a Moslem be a fool ?

As far as I can see no Moslem can say "Yes , he can " as it's theologically impossible. A Moslem holds it to be self-evident that only a kaffir can be a fool. All Moslems are wise. But Moslem wisdom has nothing to do with human intelligence. It's just a different word for foolish infantile faith they are forcibly taught to extoll and identify with intelligence. As his faith progresses a Moslem loses any remaining intelligence and creativity. He can no longer imagine a situation where he could say "Yes, I am a d... Moslem fool ! ". And it's perhaps better for him. These situations are legions."

True, from their viewpoint they cannot be fools, because they believe they know it all. I've come up with a theory that says that the more stupid and ignorant of reality a person is, the less likely he is willing to admit it. Muslims prove my theory beyond question.
