National Geographic Magazine released a video clip, below, showing the most "typical" human face on the planet as part of its series on the human race called "Population 7 billion."The researchers conclude that a male, 28-year-old Han Chinese man is the most typical person on the planet. There are 9 million of them. Don't get used to the results, however. Within 20 years, the most typical person will reside in India. You can check out the video below: *contains music* http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_theloo...-on-the-planet

"Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why we call it 'The Present'."
"Allah! La ilaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), Al-Hayyul-Qayyum (the Ever Living, the One Who sustains and protects all that exists).".."[Al Qur'aan 3:2]
There may be something to this, because you'll notice the guy has the look of someone you've seen a jillion times but you can't remember who any of the lookalikes were.
Peace be to any prophets I may have mentioned above. Praised and exalted be my Maker, if I have mentioned Him. (Come to think of it praise Him anyway.)

"Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why we call it 'The Present'."
when i was younger i use to see twins quite a bit, and even though they were twins one always ALWAYS looked much better then the other to me
funny huh !
I went to school with twin sisters in my class. They weren't identical twins, but were something like three minutes apart. I always thought one was prettier than the other.
I thought they were as well...what is the name of the group that is predominately muslim?

They merely:
Veiled themselves and didn't flaunt it
Sought forgiveness and didn't persist
Took ownership of it and don't justify it
And acted with excellence after they had erred - Ibn al-Qayyim

"han" is what people normally call "chinese" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Han_Chinese
Most Han people have a mix of taoism and confucianism as their philosophy if not religion.

Correct. And the most famous Hui is of course admiral Zheng He http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zheng_He
His extensive voyages dwarved anything europeans did centuris later. So a muslim was already traversing the world long before european christian did.
If not for the sudden change in edict by the ming Dynasty that stopped foreign relations, we would have discussed this thread in mandarin instead of in english.
