Halal grocery stores have next-level snacks. I'm currently considering marrying the bag of coconut meringue cookies I bought last time I went. Also good for healthy things, I suppose, but all the junk food I've bought from there has been amazing.

WoodrowSkillson posted:I meant Halal, which is inexcusable as I am in Dearborn Mi surrounded by stores that advertise Halal food and such. Haram is more complicated and involves forbidden things but as I was never Muslim I do not know its intricacy. CroatianAlzheimers posted:I'm sure he meant halal. As far as I know, haram means something forbidden or bad. I've heard it used colloquially the way some "suck" or "trash" is used in English to describe something stupid, nasty, gross, ridiculous, etc. Like, you see something stupid you point at it and just say, "Haram". Thanks, I thought halal and haram were like saying kosher and non-kosher, was wondering if there was something more to it I was missing (besides the actual details of what is halal/haram)

poo poo, I totally missed this. It's also not quite accurate in a fishmechy way, and by God this is relevant because the Catholic Church is nothing if not extremely fishmechy. Looks like the two big things are: - Pope Frank shrugging his shoulders during a discussion of Zika prevention, which is still kind of a big deal, and - More importantly from a procedural and organizational standpoint, un-expelling a Knights of Malta dude who got his section of the group involved in distributing condoms by way of anti-HIV and family planning stuff. Over the objections of the shithead in charge of the Knights as a whole (who resigned, lol) and the shithead cardinal who's their patron. You may have heard of the second guy, his name is Raymond Burke and he's terrible. So while it doesn't look like he's come out and said "heck yeah, condoms are good if you choose to use them", he demonstrably places fighting against contraception at a very very low priority, which makes me very very happy.

Halal meat is the best even for normal dishes, and still relatively well priced. It's just a higher quality of food. I'm over by Southfield and we have a few halal grocery stores, it's to die for.

EwokEntourage posted:Thanks, I thought halal and haram were like saying kosher and non-kosher, was wondering if there was something more to it I was missing (besides the actual details of what is halal/haram) yeah halal is kosher-equivalent fun fact: in places where there's not a proper halal provisioner, Muslims are encouraged to buy kosher products if they want to keep to strict dietary rules, because kosher requirements basically enclose halal requirements (unless you really want to be a theologically questionable rear end in a top hat about what magic spells are said at the butchery)

Cythereal posted:The Catholic Church also strongly opposes the use of contraception. For good or ill, they are consistent about their belief that the purpose of sex is to reproduce and you shouldn't have sex if it's not to have children. That's 100% inconsistent with believing abortion is murder, if abortion is murder it would be worth using contraceptives in order to prevent murders, even if that contraception increased the amount of non-procreative sex instead of just making the sex people were having anyway safer.

Being a Pope is kind of like being a Supreme Court Justice. You have a lot of latitude to make personal decisions on this stuff, but you have to find a way to do it that makes it sound like everyone before you was also right, somehow. You can't just retcon 1700 years of Catholic doctrine overnight. (Yes, I know this isn't a perfect analogy). Also, as someone dealing with Fishmech in another thread, I appreciated the reference.

H&M has already dropped the lawsuit and put out a statement:quote:H&M respects the creativity and uniqueness of artists, no matter the medium. We should have acted differently in our approach to this matter. It was never our intention to set a precedent concerning public art or to influence the debate on the legality of streetart. As a result, we are withdrawing the complaint filed in court. We are currently reaching out to the artist in question to come up with a solution. We thank you for your comments and concerns, as always, your voice matters to us. For a fast-fashion company, H&M is one of the better ones that actually tends to listen to complaints sent their way. They aren't great and are definitely bad in other ways, plus it's still fast fashion but they're better than a lot of their competitors.

I know it’s not the same thing, but if you guys have an Iranian shop among those middle eastern places then you must go right now and buy “sohan.” It is a cookie/pastry like snack but better in every single way. I used to be an atheist until I ate it and found god etc etc.

I'm over by Southfield and we have a few halal grocery stores, it's to die for. Halal shops are also the absolute best for spices, you can get huge bags of hard-to-find stuff for a fraction of what you'd pay for a tiny jar at the regular grocery store. And for people with gluten issues, things like chickpea, coconut and rice flour are much cheaper there as well. Also haloumi is amazing.
