Rated: E | (4.0)
The article “Introducing Islam” probably could more rightly be called “An Introduction to Islam”. Because it is just that. A very brief and basic introduction to an extremely complex and, often, misunderstood subject.

I would like to compliment the you for attempting to enlighten those who don’t understand what Islam is about and what it is not about.

The article covered a few of the more obvious misunderstanding, but unfortunately did so using terms unfamiliar to non-Muslims without defining the terms. i.e., (S.A.W.W.) and (A.S.) the use of the word purdah and the acronym WTC.

After explaining the main beliefs of Islam, the article changes subject and become an explanation of how the extremists who are causing such worldly turmoil are not true Muslims.

I respect the you and your beliefs. It is a very daunting undertaking to try to bring out the truth of a very complex subject.

Good job and may God bless you.

I chose to review this one because it concerns a subject near and dear to me. Species extinction.

The subject and the manner in which you present it is clear and logical. Your feeling for the demise of the herd, and the last individual, is real.

There are only a few minor errors in the work, mostly punctuation, but there is one word that I think is wrong and that is in the paragraph 7. You said all the planets died. I think you meant plants.

Keep on readin' and writin',

This is an over all rating for all chapters through 8. Don't keep us waiting for the continuation across Europe to India.

I want to meet Amaris and Sanjiv.

Keep on readin' and writin',

Very well written original story. The sequence of events followed a logical order and the theme flowed naturally.

I offer a few hints to help make it read easier.

The comment: And for those who have to live with there actions.
Should be:And for those who have to live with their actions.

Comment: You should check your work for punctuation errors. There are several places where there is no space after a period.

Comment: If you would break your work into more paragraphs it would help the reader.

Comment: Sentence structure is, at times, a little less than proper.

I hope you don't take offense at my suggestions. It is just that this group has helped me in so many ways that I feel I should try to help others.

Keep writing,

Bob

Excellent commentary on the way Mr. Rogers touched, and changed, many of our lives.

Our family, too, watched this gentle man change into a family man as he entered his, and our, house.

He will be long remembered and even when his name is forgotten his lessons will live on.

Your love of this man is apparent in the way you remember him.

God bless,
