What FD quotes IS a passage known to me as well Marty.

....but Islam DID place Christianity and Christians a rung below Muslims. In lieu of fighting,Christians paid a special tax...AND young Christian males were conscripted into the Ottoman army as Jannisaries.

before you say woah hpw dare they.....it is really no different from any society...classes are marginalized in favour of an elite class that wields money and power and influence

My own favourite parallel is that faults are hard of hearing.

If writing ever becomes work I think I'm going to have to stop
