BEING TIMED Hi Vern,
Got your letters today. It was great hearing from you. Actually, I can’t summarize my feelings of my trip to Australia [for R&R—“rest and relaxation”]. I don’t know if I had a fabulous time or not. It was weird. Getting back to a completely English-looking and -speaking country made me feel kind of ashamed of the way I’ve thought and acted over here [in Vietnam]. I realize that I’ve actually enjoyed some of the things I’ve done which would be repulsive to a healthy mind. This place does make you sick in the head. When one starts to enjoy the sickness of war, he is sick. . . .

the arab empire adopted the muslim religion as their main belief. arabs would influence the people from the territories they invaded towards islam (the muslim belief).

nevertheless, throughout the history of the arab empire, rulers brought intellectual individuals from other religions to their centers of learning. these other foreigners included jews, christians, greeks, persians, and indians.   these resulted in the adoption of important knowledge developed by these cultures by the arabic empire. for example, the works of aristotle were translated from greek to arab and indian scientists brought the numerical concept of "zero" to the arabs.

nowadays, 93% of the arab population is muslim, which at the same time is subdivided in sects including the sunni, zaini, alawi, shia. the remaining 7% is composed mainly of christians.
