    What music are you listening to?

    This is "Fear Inoculum" a single from the soon to be released Tool album (its also the album title from what I understand) - their first in 13 years. I saw them in Houston in the early 90's during their Undertow tour - huge fan.

    Do we need salvation?

    Around my area - Ft Worth TX - we mainly just get Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons. I noticed wil that you didn't mention Mormons, do you not get them around your way ?

    Do we need salvation?

    In the context of Religious and/or Spiritual Salvation I believe that - No we do not need to be (or even can be) saved by others - "others" as in referring to any other created, (mundane or spiritual) beings. If in fact Self Realization is the same as Salvation - the same certainly applies -...

    Salvation and Belief

    There has been a lot of effort and hard work put into the Sunni Shi'a conflict - it was more than avoidable. There were a lot of claims being made during the first 200 years of After Hijra - some seemed to have valid points to make, while many seemed to come out of nowhere based on nothing. It...

    Salvation and Belief

    Salaam (peace) Mostly, Islamic Scholars say the Quran was written down but not collected during the life of Muhammad - all Shi'a Scholars reject that - they hold it was written down and collected. I don't debate it because 1.) I don't like debating and 2.) I do not want to get into the...

    Salvation and Belief

    Prophet Muhammad did not over throw the Byzantine Empire - it was over thrown in 1453 by the Turks (Ottomans). The Prophet mentioned most by name in Quran is Musa/Moses - 136 times. Isa/Jesus is mentioned 25 times by name (as is Adam) and Isa is referred to many more times by various titles...

    Salvation and Belief

    According to the Shi'a (which I am) Imam 'Ali had compiled the Quran in a single volume during the life of the Prophet. Ali, who was a Hafiz (one who has the entire Quran memorized) was alive when the third Khalif Uthman, a companion of The Prophet, had the writtings of Zayd ibn Thabit (and...

    "Salvation" and "Enlightenment"

    Certainly makes it worse

    "Salvation" and "Enlightenment"

    Can there be a civilization that does not decline ? I think not. I think everything has a life span - even humankind itself. Preservation, may sometimes, be going against the natural way of things - making the natural way of things much more difficult than need be.
