Name a great person that passed away and you think we should give respect to and why.

Edger Allen Poe for his contributions to American poetry.

He was an alcoholic.

Ahmed is that any reason not to respect him? i dare you to live his life and not develop a outlet!

My outlet would be reading the Qur'an. Not getting drunk or taking drugs.

Ahmed your a bigger idiot than i would think, Poe had lost everything and being a religious nut wound only make you an extremest, who are known for unjustified murders and terrorist attacks.

Pried, by reading the Qur'an you won't become a "religious nut". You will instead be a man of virtue, hope and patience.

The Qur'an didn't say to resort to violence. And unjust murder is forbidden.

then why do people do so, also this is going off topic, Poe is still a respectable writer.

Because they have gone astray. It's not Islam's fault.

1) I do agree that Poe has great contributions. Whether he was alcoholic or not, this is now his problem with God, since he's dead, nothing I can do now, and let's just hope him the best.

2) I think you're the extremist idiot for thinking so extremistingly . <-- English

Ok let's calm down everyone and return to the topic at hand
