Re: [Biofuel] Fw: Allah or Jesus?
It will be interesting to see if you can find any documentation stating reasons why moslem, jew, and christian was able to live peacefully next to each other in Medina during the settlement of prophet Muhammad in that city. PJW - Original Message - From: Bobby Clark To: biofuel@sustainablelists.org Sent: Thursday, November 16, 2006 3:15 AM Subject: Re: [Biofuel] Fw: Allah or Jesus? I can tell now from the responses I hae seen that I should not get involved with this discussion because it seems most people have their pat or canned answers to religion in general when there are obvious differences to those who are willing to do even the minimal research. MOST religions at their core promote peace and harmony, but Islam does not and that is a simple fact. Those who have done violence in the name of other religions have most of the time been acting contradictory to the message of their religion as opposed to following what their religion says. Let's just look at some simple common sense things: 1) The Koran clearly promotes violence. Don't give me this bullcrap about translation. Very intellegent people have translated the Koran into English, not total idiots and there are specific passages that promote violence and martyrdom at the expense of all other peoples. 2) The founder of Islam was a violent, disreputable person. History tells us this. Just those two things ought to send up some red flags. Anyway, if anyone is truly interested in the articles I mentioned before or the snip of this passage from the Koran I mentioned, then I would be happy to forward it to them, but I'm not going to waste my time posting it here as it would most likely just be glossed over anyway.

There is already at least one level of interpretation there. Why not go to the source. I'm always a fan of getting to the roots. How about pasting in the actual passage for us then? Just a suggestion. Joe Bobby Clark wrote: I can tell from the responses that none of the people here have read any of the Koran. There is a particular passage known as the Sword Passage that promotes violence against all infidels, particularly jews. Even the foremost experts on Islam are beginning to see that it is a religion of violence. I will gather some articles from well known scholars that show this and post them so that you can form your own opinion of course. This will take me a few days, though. As for the fellow who supposedly did this, my opinion is that it was made up. I read on truthorfiction.com that the guy mentioned in the email claims that it really happened, but there were no others who substantiated this.

Ethanol has been used at the pump for over 20 years, primarily in a blend. There are several states which mandate it's use in a blend seasonally, for pollution abatement. The "oxygenated" fuels. So public familiarity is built in. The use of spark-ignited combustion in most passenger vehicle engines precludes the use of bio-diesel. And Zeke makes a valid point. Most foreign car manufacturers do not offer diesel engine packages in vehicles for sale in the U.S. However, those same manufacturers offer many different versions of diesels in vehicles offered in Europe, or basically anywhere but the U.S. Even vehicles shipped to Canada have diesels as options. Hope this helps, and if you don't own a diesel, GO GET ONE! Once you become accustomed to it, you'll probably never wish to go back!

Re: [Biofuel] Rapeseed Biodiesel
Hi Jan, Thank you for responding. My car is a 2001 Renault Scenic 1.9 dTi with a Direct Injection Intercooled Turbo Diesel engine. The manual mention that "rapeseed oil must not be used in any cirscumtance". I am not whether it is rapeseed oil or biodiesel made of rapeseed oil.

Re: [Biofuel] Rapeseed Biodiesel
Jan, I am currently doing it. I just want to have as much as information I can get. Thanks for your help. :-) PJW - Original Message - From: Jan Warnqvist To: Biofuel@sustainablelists.org Sent: Tuesday, June 07, 2005 5:42 PM Subject: Re: [Biofuel] Rapeseed Biodiesel Hello Purbo. I suggest that you ask your dealer what will happen if you fill biodiesel. Is it a question of rubber qualities orare there electric obstacles ? Some cars have a valve which closes if it does not recognize the incoming fuel as fuel.
