After the end of Ramadan, a very festive and joyous holiday is celebrated by Muslims. This festival is known as Eid al-Fitr, the Festival of Breaking the Fast. On the day of the Eid, Muslims attend special congregational prayers in the morning. After the completion of prayers and a special sermon, Muslims rise to greet one another, saying “Eid Mubarak”, which means “Holiday Blessings”. Later on, Muslim families visit each other’s homes and have special meals together. Children are often rewarded with gifts, money and sweets.
Interesting news article here. A cardinal in Rome has come out with the line that Christians should listen to science. On the other hand, JP2 accepted evolution in the mid-90s, so I guess the old habits of locking up people who don't agree with your literal interpretations of the liturgy is a thing of the past, baring in backward communities, like the American deep south. :undecide:

it's the vatican and the priests etc.. are those who are making people confuse. why would people listen to them anyway,if we have The Bible?:dontcare:

seriously,I wouldn't listen to any of them,I wouldn't let them control my life the way they want it.I think every christian has the capacity to understand the messages in Bible.they don't need any mechanics
