GNU Free Documentation License Can anybody give me a reference from the Quran or similar to show that Islam is against homosexuality? Q. I don't need a quotation, just a reference to go with the statement that Islam shares a general negative view on homosexuality or at least 'homosexual acts' with Christianity. I've already got the equivalent references to passegesin the Bible, so I need page number, title, edition etc of some kind of Muslim text.

I am applying for a summer honor school, and I have to have three reference letters. All of them must highlight my "work, talent, desire, strengths, and weaknesses." I have a basic understanding of what these are asking for, but does work mean community service? I know what talents, strengths, weaknesses, and desire entails, but I'm a little fuzzy on work. I am also wondering if work would include something that shows dicipline (such as marching band) or something like FBLA. Asked by Wonka - Wed Jan 13 17:39:31 2010 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. By work, they are trying to figure out if you can be committed to something long term, not necessarily a job.

Don't forget to have the person writing the letter mention how the activity/job impacted you (made you more responsible, committed, etc.). Good luck!

I would include all references in the main list - you can place the appendix before the references (in the Harvard System) which would make sense.
