Have you actually seen Muslims spill the first drops of a drink out as a way to bypass that Koranic stricture?
God, that is pathetic.(But OTOH, let's understand the way it might be interpreted as "A GOOD START"!!) And let's not forget that in this country, we have also seen other brilliant minds argue that oral sex is not sex, and dazzle us with the ambiguity of "is". It is all basically the same thing: lying. Lying to oneself, and to whoever will listen. And ALL of it is ultimately bound up with legalisms (some pseudo-) and the accepted interpretation of them.
Yes, I have seen this.
