What looks like the Arabic word for God and the name of the prophet Muhammad were discovered in pieces of beef by a diner in Birnin Kebbi.

He was about to eat it, when he suddenly noticed the words in the gristle, the restaurant owner said.

A search of the kitchen's meat revealed three more pieces which bore the names.

Well there ya go, it was Islam all along! Oh how have we been so fooled?

Can't wait to hear how christian miracle-believers try to rationalize this. I'm predicting a "Satan did it."

Many Christians don't mind playing the skeptic as long as they're talking about another religion's alleged miracles.

I'll have to remember to check my next pulled pork sandwich for this...

Now a real miracle would have been a Muslin finding Allah's name in some pork chops

Well I certainly have as much respect for these "scholars" as I do for the intellectual mexicans who see jesus in burrittos.

Is it just me, or is that a really nasty looking piece of "meat"?

I'll remember to bring this one up when I die and I'm standing before God and he says, "Didn't you see the piece of meat you heretic?!?!?!"

I just hope I don't lose my "questions to ask God" list between my death and the meeting with the big guy.

Do they allow pens and paper in Heaven? :huh:
