Dear Tilal

Do allow me to respond to you in English for I have used up my quota of Arabic writing in the piece I have put up there.

I have to start by telling you how much I enjoy your writings; I have a lot of reservations about some of your topics but your style and intellect I admire. I should also tell you I know you really well, second hand that is. You are spoken of very fondly by a very dear friend of mine who is a resident of New York City and we often discuss what you write and your updates

You mentioned the Pythagoreans, I don’t know that much about them. I know they were against the world knowing the irrational numbers. I know that the pentagram that I see all over the place (the center of the Moroccan flag, some of Da Vincci’s sketches, the star of Solomon which we call in Arabic the star of David.. no.. me messing up.. the seal of solomon, the hexagram, is the star of david but the pentagram is the star of solomon) is central somehow for them but I still don’t know its significance. And their golden mean. I will make time to read about them a little and then maybe we share thoughts about their philosophy.

And it would be lovely if you can share your thoughts on the relation between religion and science. And maybe I can share some of my experiences.

Thanks by passing by and for your comments and I hope this will be the beginning of many more discussions to come.

Wa salam

A very warm thank you to a very dear Tilal.
الله اكرم وتصوم وتفطر على خير
Writing is a very tiresome task for me and I have a huge piece of academic writing that i should be occupying myself with at the time being, but whenever I need an escape (like this very moment) i will try to put some thoughts to words. But be sure, I very closely read what you write and occasionally sualfa and i talk about em
best, amal
