Books are also so captivating i remember when i was younger i could lose track off time. I remember when i got my hands on the Foundation Series. I was captivated by the world, as images and worlds were being built in my head.I find reading like that, online to be irritating. I like the feel of pages and when I need to take a few seconds between each page turn, it interrupts my thoughts. And then the fact there's other distractions on screen...i just read them online, hardcopies are expensive. i only own 3 volumes of manga.I love reading, if I could get my hands on (hardcopy) manga I'd be all over that shit.i can get through them faster then anime. i like them better. with an anime you have to devote 22mins to get the full story. with manga i could consume more of the story in a shorter time since i read faster then the anime progresses. i finished the GTO manga in 2 days, which is not bad.well this thread went to shit faster then usual.Lawdy, you really enjoy manga, 2735

My biggest problem with animes is that unless it is an original anime series they usually cannibalize the manga. For some stupid reason. The World God only Knows was canibalized, a great story although romantic was quite good.

Fuck Beserk has not even ended yet. It is like he post a chapter and then disappears for a year and then comes back and posts again. It really makes me sad. The story is no where close to ending and honestly i have no idea whether i should care anymore. Before it was brutal and bloody. Now it is kind of more optimistic. 2737

I don't think the tradition really helps teach people to understand the significance of slaughter. But then again, everything I know about this topic I learned a minute ago in the OP.It does make it easier if you do not carry any feelings with you when you do it. But when you carefully raise an animal and then slaughter it, it can be quite painful. One time will be enough for me, and well honestly i will carry that burden with me, if i have to carry out the task of ending another persons life. 2739

The basis of writing this topic is because EID is this Saturday, the second Holiest Day in the Muslim Calendar. And with it is an important practice called the Kurbani in Pakistan, has other names in other cultures. Anyway first let me explain what the Kurbani is.
What is Kurbani? Kurbani is in remembrance of Ibrahim AS sacrifice to Allah SWT. Abraham (for most of you), was a prophet who was one day commanded by God Almighty to sacrifice his son on the top of a mountain on a certain day Distraught at the command he felt sadness but decided to follow the order and told his son and his wife the decision. Satan hoping to lead them astray coaxed them to disobey and each, wife, husband and son, stoned the devil for doing so. Upon the day and location as Abraham was about to slaughter his son, God Almighty switched the son with a goat, and with that explained to the confused Abraham that this was only a test to see his loyalty and he would never have made him sacrifice his son. With this story the muslims have been carrying on the tradition of slaughtering an animal for their family since the days of Muhammed SAW. The practice mainly calls for the one animal to be slaughtered for the family and the portions divided into multiple portions, with one two the person, another to the family and another couple portions to the poor. The main reason was Why am i talking about it? Well one would say it might be because i want to educate you people, but for me it is a question. As the practice has been taking place i notice a lack of care for how the animals are slaughtered. People will kill these animals and not care about the importance of taking a life that i feel was the purpose of the Tradition. As life is important one had to understand what it means to take the life of a living being. Sadly i see it now as a way for people mainly in the muslim dominated countries to show their wealth as they buy huge number of animals and exotic ones and slaughter them. A bloody practice but one with no understanding as to why it was done. It does help in feeding the poor, as major portions of the sacrifice are given to charity organizations, and in Pakistan, when i visited i noticed many not well off people come door to door to get a portion of the meet. Problem for me is that as i grow older in my family i am expected to carry on the tradition as the oldest able man in the family must be responsible for the sacrifice the animal although does not need to do it physically. The sadest part for me is that these animals are taken care of for days by kids and then on the day of Eid are slaughtered. And although it does have some benefits it feels dark and painful. Watching something you took care of for a couple weeks or month get slaughtered is a horrifying sight but something that really strikes you hard in the heart. Although it is not Fard(Obligatory), it is Sunnah(highly recommended). Still i cannot stand feeling that it seems like a brutal action. Quite hypocritical as i myself eat meat, and am heavily removed from the process of the slaughtering of the animal. I mean if i eat it i should be able to see what is being killed and how a life is being taken away. After all if you support the death sentence i always believed you should be able to carry it out, but also carry the burden of the action. Anyway thoughts, does the tradition hold value that could teach people or is it just some brutal act that is barbaric and will never help human kind? 2744

Koe no Katachi
For any of you Manga or Anime lovers, or anyone who wants to read a well written story, have i got the story for you. Koe no Katachi, a manga that was made after a short story published in Japan. The story is a unique one in manga and anime, as it does not follow the archetypes that most manga and anime have, with the obvious girls having their special characteristics like Yandere etc.The series mainly starts where the Short Story left off, the story of a younger Shoya(main Character), a popular kid in school. Well without spoiling anything, a girl comes to his school, and right now all of you people might be groaning, but no this is important. You see the girl is deaf, unable to hear and thus unable to communicate with people around her. A target for the popular kids, like Shoya, she is teased, and made fun of behind her back. He was one of the main culprits of these attacks, as well as another girl. The story although is about the bullying it shows the darkness and horrible acts kids can do, and how it can haunt us for the rest of our life, as the actions he perpetrates in the Short Story carry on to haunt him in the Series when he is in High school or Middle School. Honestly it is a very well written story that shows the faults in people and the darkness that each can hold. How people can be horrible at certain times and great at other times. For some reason i would heavily recommend this story to anyone. Also wondering if any of you guys read manga and know off any good manga. Also another recommendation. Aku No Hana A Psychological romance. Gets quite dark. Yamada Kun to 7 nin no majo A comedy, harem, school life story, and although has a number of manga archetypes it is alot better than most other mangas or recent animes. The plot twist just keep coming and i am still confused as how the author can keep the reader on their toes this far in. Usually most stories go to shit at this point. 2745

Honestly do you still feel kind of empty inside with no end in sight. Like lost. Cause if you do i really do not want to see you giving up on life. It may sounds stupid for me, to care for a stranger, but still you are a member of our forums and honestly kind of like a second family. If you still feel there are problems just tell us.

Serious / Re: Why is Islamophobia a thing?« on: October 02, 2014, 11:58:35 AM »I don't understand what Yasir is trying to say.Ok, now i get what you are saying, i was wondering whether you thought Islamophobia does not exist. And it is just a word to invented. Personally for me Islamophobia is for people who think all people with muslim heritage or are muslim are bad people, mainly bigots. Now if you want to challenge Islam and criticize it you can, but that is not Islamophobia, that is just a disagreement, which allows the other side to bring in their argument, and thus a debate begins. The issue of Islamophobia you talk about how it is thrown willy nilly is quite noticeable in many other movements from certain feminist groups calling people misogynist, and sometimes racism is thrown around whenever someone does not like what they are getting. 2750

Serious / Re: Why is Islamophobia a thing?« on: October 02, 2014, 11:19:21 AM »Yes but when you are discriminated based on your religion. When people fear you because of your religion, it is a problem.Freedom of religion=/=freedom from criticismYou might not but quite a number of people do. But the freedom to practice your religion and being discriminated based on your religion is wrong. I mean is Judaism a race or a religion. Remember people convert to Judaism, so ethically they are not. But if you criticize them you are labeled an anti-semite. Mainly calling you out as a racist. So the problem is are you a muslim or not if you practice a religion or not.There are many races of people that are Muslim. I don't really think of a specific type of person because I just don't think like that.Well religion usually divides people on ethnic lines. Imagine this, you say muslim who do you think, the brown people. The religion has been tied to a race in the foreign world.It's the distinction where people associate Muslims with Islam. Kinda like the term African-American where it's a implication that all people from Africa are black but it's not the case since South Africa is a large white African nationSeeing how Muslims are followers of Islam, your post makes no sense. Islamophobia is mainly the fear of Islam or the followers of the faith. Cause my parents are muslim am i being of fear, someone who may kill you. I know muslims have caused some horrible acts but i would never fear a person based on their religion or discriminate based on their religion. But it happens, and is mainly because of people not know who muslims are. 2753

Long fracking chapter, tell me when you get bored of reading it and tell me what i need to fix.
