Dear GLM,
We all give advice that we don't follow. We are all hypocrites. Take a look at my posts! If I followed half of them, you might chant my name in the glorifications soon, lol. But we all fall short. …

I actually just listened to some stuff I have of him and am becoming less convinced that it's him.
But you can decide for yourself. Listen to some of his music here.
Listen to your own advice - I thought it was great.

U1,
Arabic use tends to lump things together.
Everyone is a "shammas". Yet, "shammas" = Diakon = Deacon.
You can't tell me that the kid in diapers is a Deacon.
