I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Converting to Islam: no big whoop.  I did it myself once. :)

What does it take to become a convert to Islam?
"I've never been quite sure what the point of a eunuch is, if truth be told. It seems to me they're only men with the useful bits cut off."

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Did you get Justin Bieber tickets out of the deal?  :hmm:

All you have to do is recite that prayer which is like "There is only one God and that God is Allah" three times.  I think it's called the shahadah.   When I was in college a friend and I did that as a joke at a Model UN Conference since we were representing some crappy Muslim country. :)

Okay, I found this on about.com. Seems very easy.

One of my best friends did that so his wife's family would like him :rolleyes:

When you do that, you have to take a Muslim name.  His was (and still is to the older in-laws) Omar.  We do give him more than a little shit over it.

I think you have to mean it when you say it as well.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

When the death squad shows up to kill you for apostasy you just say you didn't mean it at the time.
