noori..its funny...its sounds you're over seen my comments! wot did i say above? I repeat again..I have mentioned "in India only the Christian minority eat pork..beef is consumed majority by Muslims and the rest of the christians..in India, mojority of Hindus won't eat beef"...it means only Christians, one of the the minority community in India consumes Pork..Beef is consumed by muslims in majority and christians also eat Beef...but majority of the Hindus won't eat Beef! I hope you know the meening of Beef..beef is not Pork..does it makes sense for you?

Nooriee..you don't need to remind me or warn me about muslims..I know and I follow it..may be better than you! well!

praise the lord..the almighty!

Shaff!!

Sorry Gypsy that got all eaten at a lunch I had last saturday... yummy yummy got some sausages left though!

Noori - you swear like a truck driver... is it not Haram to use such disgusting language? Gosh what a way for a good muslim lady to carry on. Pork is not as disgusting as your language.

When did you last poor pepsi on some pork Noori? Do you do this regularly? I am curious.. when you do this in your kitchen can you tell me what insects actually crawl out???

May I suggest you try a new recipe book? like bbq spare ribs.

Strange I have never seen worms crawl out of my smokey bacon crisps!

Noori don't worry I wasn't going to invite you round for pate, bacon sandwich, sausages, and some ribs.

That's what you ask the butchers to wrap the pork as so you can get it into Qatar Shav. I have no hidden agenda. No Iwael I refuse to be brainwashed by your pork propaganda. Pork is yummy!

Pork is not available here. It's just rumours.

Did I say they were Christians?

What do you classify them as - Hindus - Taoists?

And FYI the only place that sells pork in Qatar is the American Military base and it isn't meant to leave the base because it is illegal.

yes you can bring in a bible for personal use, as well as any religious book, just avoid bringing more than one.

and yes there is evangelical churches in Qatar. You have the grace Fellowship and the Arab Evangelical Church. Please email me to discuss this further, I can give you contact details.

If you are such a fervent Christian why do you want to live in an Islamic country with Sharia law? Would you not be happier somewhere more Christian?

One of the things I like about Qatar is knowing I won't have Jehovah's Witnesses knocking on my door!

evangelicals shall we say are often very proactive in promoting their beliefs totally unsolicited.

once i get cought brought pork in my lugage, am moslem. So itell them thats for my husband..eh eh they just let me go!

and the customs officer found a bible in one of the passengers bags. I think he is still in jail just now. They tried to make him repent but he refused. I would have helped but I am a born agian agnostic so I really couldn't interfere.

Born Again refers to a person who has found faith in God recently and Christianity or a person who lost his faith and recently started to believe in it again ... The term means getting a fresh start as a Christian ... Born again Christians are usually quite religious and very strong in there beliefs...

I figured it's christian, but never heared of it. And wished I could know more information about it.

You could probably even find copies here at the Virgin Megastore. I'm not sure what you mean by "evangelical church" but I really don't think that you should be evangelising here - that maybe against the law.

But there are churches here...not sure what denomination.
