Pleo Dinosaur in Kuwait

I passed by the Panasonic dealer in Salmiya (Easa Husain Al-Yousifi & Sons Co.) and noticed they are selling the Pleo Dinosaur. They’re selling it for KD129 which is around KD50 more expensive than Amazon. If you don’t know what the Pleo Dinosaur is its basically a robot dinosaur that can see, feel and grow (mentally). Its extremely cute and intelligent, if I didn’t think my dog Geo would eat it I would have already gotten one. You can check it out in action on the Pleo website, just click on discover once you get there. [Link]

no actually on the topic of pleo, i hope you forgive me.
but have you noticed the sign in careffour in the avenues mall next to the Qur’ān’s in the reading section?
it states on the glass box they are kept in, that non muslims are prohibited from handling the Qur’ān is there such a thing? im british and have handled a Qur’ān before and also read an english version, what does all this mean any ideas?
much appreciated

If non-muslims are prohibited from touching the quran, then how would they read it if they are interested in the religion and wanted to know more about it to increase their understanding or even convert?
why are they even SELLING qurans and in a french shopping centre with jewish owned shops nearby in a fucking mall of all places?
It’s just a bullshit sign put up by really ignorant idiots that know nothing about their religion.

jo, it doesn’t matter if you’ve handled a quran or not. it’s not against islam for non-muslims to handle qurans or anything.

also, just so everyone knows, pleo does not grow physically, it grows more intelligent.

jo:
Remember this: As per Islamic law, if you become a muslim there’s no way out.. If a muslim dares change religion or denounces his own religion.. the punishment is death.
Just like they have in the mafia. The only way out is over your dead body.
If you’re ok with that mind set.. then good luck with ya.

no man secq8 in malaysia you can change if you wanna
14. secq8 | March 16th, 2008 at 7:20 pm
fatfukka
In america you can change religion every day.. so what?
You’re missing the point.. in Islamic law, the Koran clearly states there is the death punishment for people leaving Islam.. whether islamic countries abide by it or not is something else.
fatffaka.. Jo is thinking to become a muslim not a malaysian.

jo either way you should read it, knowledge is power, + its a win win situation, ie if you christian and read the qoran and feel that chrisitianity is still correct then you win, if you read the qoran and realize islam is the right way then you covert, and your still a winner. I think (dont quote me) it has to do with the ablution, and that you must be in a clean state when handling the qoran, which typically non-muslims are not.
16. secq8 | March 17th, 2008 at 3:53 am
Clean state..lol Only muslims are clean.. come on already!?!? lol
17. RaZ | March 17th, 2008 at 8:47 am
secq8 - sorry, i meant clean state according to islam, thats why i wrote ablution.
