    This president is an outright liar. I'm sure his defenders will hate on everyone who calls him on it, one way or another.

    Remember the claim that anyone making under $250,000 a year won't see their taxes raised one bit ? That "Value added tax" will obliterate that.

    But if you have an agenda and cannot rebutt the op you need a distraction based on knowingly false accusation and childish rhetoric. This is the libby way on this board. If he actually believed it was plagiarism he could have just reported it and refused to attempt to derail the thread.

    I would think a link is sufficient and there by would not be plagiarism.
    If you look at the link, it clearly states it was written by Sean McDowell

    I thought I would start a poll on that very question.

    disclaimer - linked poll was prepared by Salty based on subject of Magnetic Poles and RevMitchell

    As-Salāmu `Alaykum (السلام عليكم) is an Arabic spoken greeting used by Muslims as well as Arab Christians and Jews. The term Salam in Arabic means "Peace". The greeting may also be transliterated as Salaam 'Alaykum. It means "Peace be upon you". The traditional response is wa `Alaykum As-Salaam, meaning "and upon you be peace."

    This type of greeting is common in the Middle East and Africa; its Hebrew counterpart greeting is Shalom aleichem and in Maltese is Sliem ghalikom.

    Then of course Jesus said almost the same thing to His deciples after His resurrection.

    Jhn 20:21 Then said Jesus to them again, Peace [be] unto you: as [my] Father hath sent me, even so send I you.

    This doesn't necessarily have anything to do with thje dead. It's a greeting commonly used by Arabs and Jews alike in the Middle East. I think this writer is making this stuff up.

    Your post is copied & pasted from Wikipedia. You should link to it.

    As I stand corrected I noticed from the wiki article it failed to produce evidence of any use by Arab Christians and only placed a link to the wiki article on Christians as support which is no support at all. Seems to be making it up.


    I found this article on wiki which makes no attempt to tie it to anyone else.

    Why not post your own thoughts rather than making up things that the "libies" might say?

    One must have an original thought to post one.

    Why not post your own thoughts rather than copy & paste them from other sources ?
