18 - At length, when they came to a valley of ants. One of the ants said: O ye ants, get into your habitations, lest solomon and his hosts crush you (under foot) without knowing it.".

This is from 14 centuries. From the glorious Qura'an. It should be time for those who have doubts about Mohammad to question themselves...

Fascinating information. Being from Maine, I had never been bitten by an ant. I would sit on the ground and they would walk over me. My first memorable ant experience in Florida was when I was at a late-night party in a pasture. I didn't stand close enough to the bond fire, so I couldn't understand why my bare feet and legs were BURNING! A friend with a flashlight came by and shined his flashlight at my dancing feet; I was covered in FIRE ANTS! Talk about a painful lesson that not all ants are alike. Here in this state, ants are NOT by friends:)
