The Direction the Sun Sets is Very Important When Designing a House!
When building a house, it is important that a home owner studies the effects of the sun on his future home. He or she should carefully study the path way of the sunâ??s progress and its effect of heat and light on the rooms in the house. Many home owners build their houses negligent of this fact and then after moving in realize that the sun creates much more heat than expected within certain rooms of the house. Thus when designing the floor plan these are significant elements to take into consideration. Remember when constructing try to minimize locating the high traffic rooms in direct line of the sunâ??s travel.
Perhaps the best designed houses are known for making proper use of the physical setting and the natural landscape surrounding the house. Many home owners tend to forget the fact that the setting of a house embraces not only the immediate surroundings but also the distant views. A house can boast of a thousand times more beauty than another simply because of the surrounding natural features on the land. The occurrence of flora and fauna coupled with the way the sun rises and sets over a house certainly lends a home an aesthetic splendor!
For a home owner, understanding how the land and the house work in accordance with the sunâ??s movement can be done simply by studying the sun’s daily path. Additionally, one should pay particular attention to the window location in the rooms as they stream light and heat indiscriminately into the house. Generally a home that is in harmony with its environment is open to sunshine and breeze, yet it protects and shades the residents because of thoughtful interior design. Ideally, during the construction phase a house owner needs to consider ventilation and heat as major issues of concern.
When considering the layout and design of rooms in a house, one must be wary of the climate. If a house is built in a tropical country then the scheme should be quite different to houses in temperate zones. Generally for houses being constructed in a hot humid climate or a hot dry climate, a home owner may want to consider a design that boasts of magnificent views of sunrises and sunsets while avoiding the heat. He or she should also focus on designing in order to allow cooling breezes to pass through the home naturally. Whereas for those who live in cooler climates, solar heating capabilities of the sun can be quite an advantage for minimizing heating bills.

America was founded on separation of church and state. Ideally, it's meant to be a melting pot where we accept and honor our differences, while honoring our own traditions.

Um, I was also born and raised here, as were my parents, and their parents, and their parents, and theirs…..
If you don't mind, I don't really want MY country to be a Muslim nation. I do hope that is alright with you, as it is also MY country, and the country of a good many other people who do not want a Muslim theocracy here.

i appreciate your loyalty to islam…it is your right to do so…I am glad you find the freedom here to worship god in the way you wish…..you will continue to have this freedom, because the law which gives this freedom to you was written by christians…..
since you have indicated by inference that the God of Jews and Christians is not the same as your God…since they have to convert to allah….then you will never have this happen in america…..
there is only one God….and you have to recognize the legitimate worship of jews and christians who worship the one god as well…it is logical if they already worship the one god, but call him by his original name, then they do not need to convert, and you have no case against them.
since the christians gave you the freedom you enjoy, they also have the freedom to enjoy their own faith…..you cannot take that away from them…and put them under islam……
the problems you see are due to the presence of atheists in this country, who have no respect for god…..and do not believe in him…..as people turn away form god…they turn to sin…and make it a lifestyle… if you wish to make a difference…address the sin itself….and the atheists….the christians have had to deal with them for years now…the atheists are a tough group to convert or remove…..
so the problem is not to remove those who believe in god and respect his laws…even if their faith is different from yours……the problem is with those who hate god and oppose all religious freedom….

Yup it's fiction. There are Muslims and islamics in Europe and other places that consume alcohol it's not just happening in America. Why aren't you challenging them and their lifestyles? Better yet muslims and islamic have control of most of the middle east and there is where they can make rules and those rules speak to their majority. I happen to like to consume alcohol with my meals and I don't have a problem with the substance of alcohol. How about the muslim world concentrate on their embarasment of a situation in Darfur where people or dying and no one is buying them out they are killing them?

Nine years ago I gave my life to God as a Christian. I have also been brought up to believe as a citizen of the USA in tolerance and freedom. I don’t believe that we should separate ourselves off from people that are different from us. This leads to intolerance, isolationism, and many highly derogatory policies. I would not be AT ALL pro on an Islamic USA.
When I have tried to release control of my life to the Lord and even when I stumble in my attempt to follow Him, He would accept me as I back as I am as well as the community the Christian community I’m in. From what I’ve seen in Islam this is not the case.
Intolerance of non-believers or apostasy (the act of leaving the Muslim faith) is even written into the Quran. In many Islamic societies it is the duty of the family (Uncles, Brothers …) to oppress the non-believers in the family. Should they express a non-belief in Islam then they have a strong possibility to be put to death. This is written into law in various Islamic countries. Freedom of thought is severely discouraged. Toleration of conversion to other belief systems is not supported. This is what our soldiers have fought and died for over the last 200 years. If Islam can not stand on its own today without the threat of violence, then this maybe why its in trouble in the US.
I’m not saying Christianity has not had its own trouble in this also. However the Christian beliefs that I avow to, believe that we should be like Jesus Christ in how we live our life. Should someone refuse to believe as I do then that is their choice. I would be disappointed that they have refused the blessings I feel I have received but God wants us to have a choice and come to him of our own free will, not by coercion.

If you do not like this one nation under God then why are you here?, and why do you feel the need to force your beliefs onto people who like to embrace a brother regardless of his belief. Embrace this freedom. If I understand you. the fact is you are not thinking of this freedom you enjoy that millions have died to have that you enjoy every day in the USA. But by your simple statement you are saying my way and no other way. You have become blinded by the true meaning of what this country is all about. If your master plan in the name of Islam is truly then not just to convert but to conquer and dominate, is it not? Are we not told to Love our brother and give aid to him in his time of need. Is a brother to you just from an Muslim and have a Islamic background or could he be a Christian, or Jew, as well? I pledge my allegiance to this flag one nation under God- Your may be in the wrong. counrty?
