I just watched Morgan Sperlings "30 Days" on Hulu about Muslims. I didn't know that the debate over the loudspeakers in Dearborn MI was so heated.

IDK if you are a islamophobe, but if I lived where they where broadcasting prayers over a loudspeaker, I would feel a little like when other religions get in my face about their agendas, and I am not an islamophobe.

I guess I would have to move.

My sister lives in Suwon, South Korea and she says the loud speakers there are crazy too. I hope American doesn't adopt that form of advertising.

*LOL*

I can almost picture you, clapping your hands over your ears to escape the noise of the watermelon man. That is almost funny!!

I consider that to be noise pollution. People are polluting the neighborhood through the incessant noise. Not much to do about the calls to prayer, but the rest is just ridiculous.

:) It was my hope to share my absurd moments with my friends. So, I'm so glad you can be amused at a distance. Seriously I don't know why the city of Jerusalem, or any place doesn't pass a by-law about disturbing the peace. Did you know 4 am is one of the five designated prayer times? The dogs howl in competition with the muezzins, and that in all honesty sounds hilarious. *chuckle* Excuse my irreverence.
