    Its from 10pm or 11pm till 7am or 8am. So the Muslims would sleep all day, or most of the day, eat before they worked, and eat and lunch(which was at 3am-4am). I also let them use a meeting room so they could pray when it was time.

    I love Ramadhan, it's the one week where Christians are reminded that they too are Athiests in a round about way.

    I think they call it the terrorist trials.

    On a related note I overheard someone here at work say this on Monday; "Why does panty head Allah make his slaves not eat just so his fat ass can have all the food? At least my god gives me bread and wine" *Loud laugh.

    I immediately thought of Firas and wanting to Hagun an infidel. Hypocrisy is fun.

    Catholicism isn't a religion, it's a fucking business.

    When I was still playing FFXI and I was in FoReal...there were (obviously) a lot of people fasting. And I never understood how they pulled it off, especially those that went to school/university on top of it.

    I mean, I can't even focus when my stomach is slightly rumbling. Which is after like 4 hours of no food.

    I'd imagine that "older" people have it easier, if they don't work they can just sleep all day and wake up for prayers then go back to bed 'til sunset...

    Well, to me it's just another reason why I wouldn't go back to religion ever again...

    Ramadhan Mobarak! With the sun setting so late this time of year this has been the longest I've ever had to fast. Still though... feels good man.

    Don't play FFXI anymore, but when I did it was like the greatest tool for getting through the day... time flew by and it was dawn before I knew it. :D

    Can't drink or eat anything. A lot of people will wake up very early in the morning(I get up at 4AM) to have a small meal to make it a little easier.

    I wonder if more Infidels die during Ramadan cause the Muslims are all cranky from not eating.

    Technically, you can "cheat" ramadan. You just have to move to the north pole, make yourself an imaginary parallel(40m~ is ideal) draw a line at sunrise and make sure you don't pass that. Simply walk approx. 17 meters to the west everyday.
