    Peace Arnold, )

    What a really nice biography. bravo

    Anyway I have a couple questions. Is the reason your realationship with your ex-wife broke apart because she felt more comfortable with Sunni Islam and she couldnt accept Quran alone concept?

    And second question is do you spread your belief to your close family too? Im just curious because you dont mention your family much.

      Peace,

      No my ex-wife was not sunni or even followed the Quran. After i discovered about Quran alone, she just stopped doing anything with it. She said she didn't need any book to guide her, which i respected. But our divorce was based on several things. We had a knowledge difference that created a wedge between us, as i couldn't share any thoughts with her, as she didn't understood them. She never read books or investigated, she had never finished school. First this didn't matter, but when you are longer together, such differences play a bigger role to be ignored. Love is something that must be fed like a flower, only in the first years it is there without any real need for food. So our different views became a wall. Also different intrests, and then also our differences on things about following the Quran. And also other things. Fighting for Quran alone is my mission, and it was to hard for me, to live with a person who rejected it. Also it was weird as she earlier really believed in it. We knew we couldn't nurture our love anylonger, and it was better to seperate now when we are still friends and respect each other. So we divorced really out of respect and love.

      As for my family, yes i talk a lot with them. For them IslamQuran are alien things. But my views they find intruiging. Maybe in time when i publish more articles in my country they get more interrested. My best friend already started to follow the Quran because of my view on the Quran and Islam. So Godwilling..............

      Peace

              He was a rapper, and i helped him to get equipment. He was good, but to much attitude. Together we made songs and sold them.

                Hahaha, Yes i used to write raps D He was a real good rapper. This guy was a genius, with making songs. We made our own beats with special studio programs, and then he rapped on them. This guy was goodddddddddd. He performed on parties. I myself didn't had to guts to rap in public, and he was the real rapper. I was the graffiti writer. We spend hours and hours, finding samples we could use in the songs. Small bits of sounds here and there. Those times were special for me. We shared a special bond. I miss the guy..... We hanged out all day long. 24/7 Just hanging out on the streets. Partying, chiling. Everybody in the city knew us. I saved his life a couple of times. He was one of the closest people i ever had. We were always laughing, having fun.

                When i turned muslim, he freaked out and broke the friendship. I still don't understand why, as he respected my research. Suddenly he made a fight and didn't want to do anything with me. I didn't understand. My heart was broken. But i believe now God did this, so i would brake away from the weed smoking and drug-world. And i became 'to' righteous, as i didn't like this lifestyle anymore, so that also became a wall between us. Still i miss him, he went back to portugal. I lost the number from his parents house. I tried to find him. He had to much attitude, but that was created as he came from the ghetto's of portugal. So i never bothered me as i could see through it, but most people couldn't, so he got himself in trouble after our friendship was broken. He left and took with him all the songs. I don't have anything left except pictures of us.

                We almost like, lived together 24/7 for 2 years. I wunder how he is. I hope that when i'm more busy with Quran alone in the open, and maybe get some coverage, he sees me on tv or inn a magazine, and maybe contact me, or i hope him to see in his own videoclip.

                As for the website, just check my profile. We are changing the whole site, as this was only a simple version. So in a couple of months Godwilling it will have more and look better.

                Peace

                  AOL has blocked me from going on your site >

                  these days almost every site i go on is blocked by the stupid parental filter >

                  AOL is so crap but my dad thinks it's so good just coz they keep bangin' on about it being "safe" to use the internet coz of the "parental filter"

                  ironically this "parental filter" blocks me from all the good sites but allows me to go on plenty of inappropriate ones. My cousin once typed something rude on google images and it didn't block anything then. >

                        Although I saw your graffiti some time ago, the dragon is in my mind still.. another one with black bubbles in the background.. very beautiful. I once recieved some three dimension graffiti pics. Maybe you would want to see them?

                              p.s. to insert an image, you have to right-click on the picture while on the actual where the picture resides, select "properties", copy the url, paste in the body of your post, highlight the entire url, and click on the image button which adds this to the url "img" in brackets (no quotes), followed by the url, and ending in "/img" in brackets (no quotes).

                                        Amazing story, just read this...I really like the cafeteria? one, it's got depth...and another one, from your site...um the one with the backpack thrown carelessly in front of it...I was strangely drawn to it in particular. I like red backpacks

                                          I think I can imagine what you feel every time someone confuses our names...
                                          As for myself I feel glad to be mistaken with you. Have you noticed that I never corrected that mistake!?
