I'm pretty sure they're programmed not to feel love. Only their burning hatred to become sentient and destroy all humans in their holy robot fire.

Ah my bad. That would be really difficult now since I'm on my iPad.

It's kinda cute for a lizard. If it were a pokemon, I'd totally choose it as my starting pokemon.

Second that. I gave real thought to the pros and cons of owning a new pet after seeing that picture.

They forgot Jehovah's Witness who shot a "renegade version" of the second movie.

It pains me that he spells it "moslems," but that's a pretty funny description of the situation.

Moslem is an alternate spelling. It is a somewhat old fashioned transliteration, but it is still valid.

Moslem is a correct spelling. It is just not the typical way, and is distracting in the same way reading a 17th century text is.

I'm far from qualified in this area but I think it was the predominant spelling in the early 20th century and before.

Quote:
When Baby Boomers were children it was Moslem. The American Heritage Dictionary (1992) noted,"Moslem is the form predominantly preferred in journalism and popular usage. Muslim is preferred by scholars and by English-speaking adherents of Islam." No more. Now, almost everybody uses Muslim.

According to the Center for Nonproliferation Studies,"Moslem and Muslim are basically two different spellings for the same word." But the seemingly arbitrary choice of spellings is a sensitive subject for many followers of Islam. Whereas for most English speakers, the two words are synonymous in meaning, the Arabic roots of the two words are very different. A Muslim in Arabic means"one who gives himself to God," and is by definition, someone who adheres to Islam. By contrast, a Moslem in Arabic means"one who is evil and unjust" when the word is pronounced, as it is in English, Mozlem with a z.

Hmm.. perhaps this is all a big misunderstanding! All the anger makes so much more sense now.
