Oops, looks like someone forgot to tell 3million that "religion was dead"!!!

The Met estimated the crowd at 650.

Thanks gonzy but I'm in Belfast at the moment. I haven't seen a mosque here. Or even a Muslim as far as I can tell.
If I was at home, I'd be popping in for some scran for sure.

To put that into perspective, one and a half million people turned up to see Queen in Rio. They do things bigger in Brazil.

thanks for those posts gonzy. i find islam very interesting, and its always good to hear more about it.
im not religious but have had such great welcomes and been shown such generosity from muslims while wandering around in north africa so its always great to know more
happy ramadan

And 3.5 million showed up to see Rod Stewart...

I find Sufism intriguing. I find religion as a whole controlling though.

There is only one constant, Mother Nature. No Prophets with iffy lives, a story told by others. Just savage beauty and present.

New-age Gaiaist hippy!

happy ramadan

thanks jonah... 😀

if anyone has a spare couple of hours i strongly recommend watching the channel 4 documentary on the quran...it was aired a while ago then was aired again last month...its a very interesting documentary and gives you a clearer insight into the religion as a whole....you can catch it on youtube using the following link

ramadan finished last wednesday night leading to Eid celebrations on Thursday.
proof that fasting helps you lose weight is true in my case...i weighed 11st 4lb at the start and last nights readings said 10st dead on....i still have a podgy belly though... 😆
ideally i would like to be 10st 7lb so i guess i'll be hitting the weights now to add the extra mass back on...
