Cubic is a universal form of structure.
In maths, we learned about cubic, rectangular, triangle, cylinder, etc.
Not just muslim can build something in cubic form.
There are many small apts/houses in downtown areas built with cubic structure.

Here's my idea for tolerance and world peace:

Everybody--and I mean everybody--gets thrown in a room in a circle.

Then everybody--EVERYBODY--gets mercilessly teased and made fun of in equal time, one by one.

If you cannot develop a sense of humour about yourself, your beliefs and all the other abstractions you fill your head with, you are thrown in a pit by all the people in the circle and forced to watch Marx Brothers routines until you laugh so hard you reaize that you should stop being so fucking sensitive.

Fuck religion!

Immigrants tend to forget that when they immigrate to a new country they should learn to speak that country's official language(s) and stop trying to force their beliefs and religious laws into their new country's system. If they dont like the way the country is run why did they immigrate to it in the first place?

Every race has its drawbacks and its positiveness, people need to focus on the positive shit and stop looking at the controversal shit.
Exactly!!! Why would they immigrate in the first place?

Unbelievable...

Frankly, if the design offends anyone, they have the opportunity to buy controling interest in the company and rip it down...if not, shut up.

This seems so odd , generally all of these "moderate"muslums try to portray themselves as carefree happy go lucky lovable people.

A muslum getting violent, who would have ever thought that possible.:rolleyes:

You don't get it. You need to read the whole argument
before responding. Not just part of the argument.

I was juust answering your question :) But seriously, most immigrants come here simply to improve their standard of living, and not to change their thinking or beliefs. And who can blame them. When immigrating here, you are asked about your education and ability to support yourself, but never about your religion or your level of fanatacism. It's a purely economic decision both on the part of Canada and the immigrant. If zealots and weirdos are not welcome here, then the government needs to screen them out.

There was some discussion about this awhile back.. the Aussi PM or prez said something along the lines of "look , if you want to come here, you adapt to us, not the other way around. Feel right at home but don't think you'll change this place to be like the place you left, otherwise, why did you leave?"

I agree with the man. I think freedom of religion and speech are awesome but not when you want to force everyone else to look, talk, and believe in the same things you do..

Now it's a cube in the middle of manhattan. Next it's the CN tower 'cause it's obviously a decadent phallic symbol. Hey, Skydome could be taken to represent a woman's vagina the way it opens and closes with the push of the "right" button.. and they're next to each other.. will a flaky muslim cleric take offense to them too??

gimme a break.

I'd guess it's just the extreme ones that are complaining. Then again what else is new, life goes on.

I wasn't asking a question actually.
That was retorical question btw.

I agree with El_Cid. If someone wants to come to another country for whatever reason, he or she should adapt to the country he or she wants
to live in. Not the other way around. It doesn't make sense.
Canada or US or other countries do not and never push them to immigrate
to Canada, US, or other countires. If you don't like it, then go back to your own country. If you wanna live here, then adapt. Do not make people talk, look, or act the way they believe. Now, when I say adapt, I didn't say convert to another religion or even drop your religion and become an atheis.
The other day we have a muslim guy say that woman in general need to cover themselves up in order to avoid rape. He says something like, if a meat is uncovered, the dog will eat it. What the fuck is this? LOL
Obviously, he doesn't have a human brain, maybe dog brain yes. Human have a common sense and values. Dogs don't have this. This is exactly how he thinks. LOL

Speaking as an immigrant, my attitude is, "We adapt, they adopt"
