Random thought tonight but...
Sikhs must have their knife on them at all times right?

So how do they fly places?
Do they have a fake knife, or do they get a religious exemption?

Apparently allowed in India, but they check them in elsewhere.

Can a Sikh Carry a Kirpan on a Plane?

I have a sikh that works for me and he doesn't carry. Only on formal occasions.

they fly by spinning in a circle real fast, letting the ends of their turbans flap out like helicopter blades and then they fly to their destination.

that is why they are called whirling dervishes.

they use the knives as rudders.


Those are Sufi dervishes (Islam).
Seven and three are ten, not only now, but forever. There has never been a time when seven and three were not ten, nor will there ever be a time when they are not ten. Therefore, I have said that the truth of number is incorruptible and common to all who think. — St. Augustine

Elections are when people find out what politicians stand for, and politicians find out what people will fall for.

If it's a real question, ask one.... there's several on tiktok that will answer questions. They're probably the most open and willing to talk about their religious group in the world.

except Mormons.
Youre only getting the prepared script from Mormons, not the real story on their religion.

They often carry a symbolic knife when traveling. Could be a photo or other small representation.

i did not mention a thing about hiding.

and Mormons are very open about their religion - from Kolob, to the potential of everyone becoming a god of their own.

so not sure what YOU think they are hiding.




Plenty. Read cesletter.com for a well researched commentary on their religion's history/beliefs.

Wonderful people and I know many - all of them hard workers and family oriented with great values. Very complicated religion responsible for a lot of harm in this world though.

Did not know. That explains a lot. Thx.

Crazy thread though where we discuss one of my favourite religious groups and I wound up starring posts by TXAGFAN and Seattle.

Back in Sydney, I always preferred my Uber drivers and Silver Service Taxi drivers to be Sikh. Indians are the best drivers and Sikhs are the best of the best. Always happy when Uber says my driver is going to be so and so Singh.
