All around the world, through the history of the world, there has been a rivalry bettwen something. What do you think has been the biggest rivalry ever since? I say McDonalds and Burger King have made a long war.

Is it just me, or does that new hedgehog's (not Shadow) head look like a marijuana leaf? Yeah, I know I sound stupid, but if you look close enough...........Sonic might be trying to sneak in somethin'.

Ahahaha, I love you.

Anyway, cats vs. dogs is a pretty big rivalry--as is cat and mouse. Come to think of it, cats cause all kinds of trouble--but (and this is known only in certain circles) none of their rivalries is as vicious as that with the penguins.

Eclipsed Moon · « **Reply #33 on:** January 23, 2007, 09:20:36 AM »

I thought Yin and Yang were the opposite of rivalry.

And Fire vs. Ice is pretty much like the Nazis vs. the Jews: one just kills the other.

I'm pretty sure Jewish people didn't do a lot of Nazi killing. Besides, compared to other political parties, the Nazi party hasn't been around for very long. Jewish people existed looooong before they did.

I almost said Nancy Drew vs. the Hardy boys, but in the end, they worked together. Maybe there was competition in sales.

Mr. Wiggles · « **Reply #43 on:** January 24, 2007, 07:12:24 PM »

Isn't practically every shipping just one huge rivalry?

Also, I doubt Nancy Drew would've ever stood a chance against the real Hardys.

Pt_Peach · « **Reply #44 on:** January 24, 2007, 07:16:11 PM »

YIKES! Nope, she would've been bound and gagged and would have had to rely on her wits.

The Chef · « **Reply #45 on:** January 25, 2007, 09:29:21 AM »

Uh, the real Hardys are "professional" wrestlers. I don't even know if she's want to win the title.

I think it'd make more sense to put quotes around "wrestlers" since that's the part that's really under question. Nobody's arguing they don't make money off what they do.

My first name is Roman, my middle name is Hebrew, and my last name is German. My middle name is commonly not seen at all, and if it is, it's usually reduced down to a mere initial. The Hebrew genocide by the Romans and Germans lives on. :(

Confusing for me, anyway.

Pt_Peach · « **Reply #55 on:** January 26, 2007, 04:25:49 PM »

Well, when the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) died, there was an argument over who was the next ruler. Half the people thought to elect his best friend, Abu Bakr, who was very knowledgeable as the leader while the other half wanted his son-in-law Ali (RA) to be the ruler, because he was married to the Prophets daughter Fatimah. The Muslims were split. The Shiite's also have different religious views than the Sunni's. The Shiites felt that the rulers of Islam should stay on the bloodline. However, Sunni's do not believe in this, as voting is encouraged in the Shariah (Islamic law) when choosing leaders. Sunni's do not think that rulers should be appointed due to the bloodline. They Shiites pray differently than the Sunni's, too. They also have other festivals that the Sunni's do not celebrate, like the Prophet's birthday.

So you see? This entire disagreement is because Ali wasn't chosen to be the first Kalifah (even though he was the 3rd Kalifah, after Omar (RA))
