****, I sometimes use Wikipedia just to do a test. I'd be so ****ed.

'word Raargant. Books in college are crazy. And professors and stuff. haha. I have a teacher that takes off 50% from a paper if you cite wikipedia.

I think my comment flew over your head.

[The Forsaken]

Apparently your sarcasm is to subtle Raar.

And Wayward, if I use Wikipedia on any of my papers it's an automatic 0.

Rofl!

You don't use wikipedia. It's not a legitimate source. You go to college, your college definitely has some subscriptions to academic stuff. Go to your library website and access it. It's so easy and you get WAY more results and they are scholarly results.

EDIT: And if your going to use wikipedia, don't cite it. Just don't. Make sure not to quote it and you better paraphrase it awesome.

There are some really good online journal sites out there like Jstor and stuff that you might be able to access for free through your school or college. They have a lot of academic articles that are researched and tested and you can perform easy searches to find articles that are helpful to you.

Check it out, I use online journal databases a fair amount and I always find them useful.

*Smirk* Dont worry I caught it

For the rest of your benefit:

The Koran

The Disbelievers

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

[109.1] Say: O unbelievers!

[109.2] I do not serve that which you serve,

[109.3] Nor do you serve Him Whom I serve:

[109.4] Nor am I going to serve that which you serve,

[109.5] Nor are you going to serve Him Whom I serve:

[109.6] You shall have your religion and I shall have my religion.

There will always be extremists in religion. That doesnt mean everyone who practices Islam or wears a turban wants to blow the US up.

'....hahahahaa... So true. I thought you meant it as, he has been dunked in the world of real academics and so is learning how tough it is. eh. i should really start over analyze what people say.

The first comment was not directed toward you.

The second was, and needing fifty extra words is not an excuse to put non-factual statements in a conclusion. Be it a high school paper or a published document, no literature should contain information that is so egregiously false and/or misleading.

And finally, saying "it came from my book" is not a justification, since once you get into the real world of academics, you'll understand that a lot of books, professors, etc. have very real biases, and just because something is labeled a textbook does not make it accurate.

PS - Three hours is a long time, for an effort like this.

three hours during which I was also watching the boondocks, moreso than actually writing.

I looked at the subject of this post and knew that it was going to be a complete waste of my time to read it.

Brsingr, you are entitled to your own beliefs. Please remember that others are too, regardless of your personal opinions of them. Next time you feel the need to use vulgarity in that manner with regard to someone's personal beliefs, like a religion, please be also ready for a lengthy forum vacation.

We will not be insulting people's religion on this forum. Thank you.
