Don't apologize if it's an integral part of your life, dude. I get fed up with the world expecting people who believe in God to apologize (keyword here being "world" NOT "SRP members"). While I don't agree with the muslim faith I HIGHLY respect the followers' dedication to their God. Be proud of your faith man. Doesn't mean you have to shove it down everyone's throat (and I don't think you ever have here), but don't let the worlds loudly spoken agnst against it bully you into submission.

If it's part of your character it's not religion, it's you.

As for the overpopulation thing, GREED is more of a factor damaging the environment than people. Westerners think the world is a disposable resource (in general) and prove it by the average lifestyle. It's one of the effects of the disease of industrialized capitalism. But that's a hotly contested debate all by itself that I'll try not to digress with here.

Yea I was trying to be humorous with my suggestions but It would really be cool if it were possible. I envy the amish of 30 years ago. Bikes and horses, candles and reusables, without intending to they really were doing a service for the environment. All that aside they led a hardworking, yet totally relaxed lifestyle.
