My kitty will lick the tears from my cheeks when I cry and meow loudly until I laugh or smile at him. He also sleeps on my head when I show signs of distress in my sleep; it's hard to be upset from a nightmare when I wake to a purring kitty licking my hair.

Not necessarily. My kittehs are pretty good about keeping the claws in when necessary, and if you trim them, it helps.

I told other kids that there wasn't a Santa as a kid because I was appalled that people lied to their kids.

I could sit down and try to refute you, but it's not my religion anymore, and I don't want to come off badly. However, I will say that what you call "twisted" Islam is what many, many Muslims believe, and they have just as much in the way of verses and sayings to prove it.

I'd like to see you cite where the Quran and Hadith say that we…

Based on my mother's standards (educated, professional, at least baseline successful, capable of taking on the world yet also taking tender care of me, focused on my happiness and well-being, discovered in my early 20s), I might be my own ideal husband.
