Your post was helpful, interesting, and informative. I really got a great deal out of it. I would be interested to learn more about your NQ rating. I'm sincere in my request, because even though I've been through a great deal at age 54, I think I'm still naive. And I've been surprised, in recent years, by having been openly told by others that I'm naive. I would disagree with you on one point. You called Muslim countries retarded. On bahalf of real retarded people worldwide, I must say its an insult to them. This last note is not directed at you, but to anyone who may read this, for its a pet peeve of mine. Often I hear people refer to wicked or evil or mean people as "animals," to which I always reply, "No. Please don't insult animals with the comparison." Compare evil, wicked, or mean people to Monsters, or Sociopaths, or just call them what they are. I'm making a real effort to not be so naive, so if you have any more to share on the subject, I would like to hear from you. I wish you well. Sincerely, Sherry in the USA
