Oh my years!!!! Islam does not believe in Incarnation. It is anathema. This is a major issue and as such our Prophet or our Qur'an would have mentioned Incarnation is okay. In fact, they taught the opposite, again and again and again. Christ was a word from Allah. That is to say, Allah says...

Could we have a structured debate subforum, where 1 person takes on 1 person. I suggest simple rules: 1. No logical fallacies 2. A moderator is to stop a person if they use a specific number of logical fallacies because they are just no longer debating 3. No abuse 4. A fixed number of rounds...

You do care, you typically shame Muslims for their beliefs by making fraught comparisons with secularism, whilst not using the same critique for, say, atheism or other faiths or even your own self. Every time you write about Islam on here, it is negative, punitive, rhetoric. Your words are...

God gives that right. You're not him.

That's just not true. You have not researched Islam and / or you are just creating a straw man. Islam teaches stories of various prophets because they were real. The Bible also has stories of some of those prophets but not all. Some are not in the Bible. The Qur'an has stories of some Bible...

What a disgusting way to talk to people. You are not debating and you are not responding to arrogance. You are throwing in fact-free slanders and stereotypes. This typifies your posts. You do not debate. I am well aware of Hinduism's teachings by the way, and Buddhism's. They're not as innocent...

I think the Quran admonishes against arguing over things that are unknowable (as logic dictates) either way. But they can be discussed, just not crystallised into opposing camps.

May i ask how it concerns you what a man does with a woman in wedlock? Was it any different in any other culture? What law was being broken? Here in England it's probably illegal to paint a swastika on a little boy's head. And probably also to burn a widow. At what age does a woman begin to be...

No. Expansion: there's always the chance that everyone is wrong, but in my experience it's the way a dismissive teacher breaks up a fight - by telling them they are all in the wrong and collectively punishing everybody rather than searching for the truth of the matter. Plus collective...

That is lovely, like a tower in perpetual golden afternoon sunlight. Reminds me of Surah Al Asr.

OK l'm seeing a standard digest of arguments for the gentle weaning off of religion. The twist you added was a few circular logical fallacies e.g.: "the beginning of religion" = from the outset you frame religion as a thing invented, in which case there is indeed nothing really there "why are...

Here's one excerise: chase aesthetics. Take something you like or hate. Ask yourself why you like or hate it. Keep asking why to that answer and the next answer and so on. Admitting to aesthetic = admitting to spirituality = becoming a theist mystic. Although there are spiritual atheists ...

This creature sounds like a Jinn, specifically an evil one (a shaytan) as it is interfering with you. It is warping the idealised bond of husband and wife in heaven loving each other for eternity in bliss, even imitating husband with otherworldly wife (the Houris of paradise, a species of...

As l see it: Mysticism = a focus on the ineffable Atheist mysticism / your Atheist mysticism = the mysticism that comes from mathematics (is that Fibonacci?), maybe physical sciences too. What you are doing is cutting God in half and saying there's no God. I agree that a half-god probably is...

Next: Chewbacca was a 7th level logos, and Jean Luc Picard doesn't have to tell anyone about it so what's the issue? I seriously hope you see your own stance reflected back at you in that one line because there won't be many that can stop your inertia without the sin of interfering and not...

With Lord Humungus laying in wait, in the foreground.

UPDATE: It has become evident from this thread that none of the respondents can provide any evidence for evolution by gene mutation. Instead, all l have gotten is verbal abuse, deflection, circular logic, book references and links submitted by people that clearly don't understand evolution but...

Yep it's typical to find humility and honesty among the Muslims. We are not guaranteed salvation (fair play to you though it's a nice idea to promise onesself paradise, what could possibly go wrong?) so we self evaluate. We are chivalrous, we are gentlemen. The evil others speak of our prophets...

Well, you pray to God You don't worship matter You don't promote a later sect You tell others about God You don't sadistically bash Syrian refugees (who may well be blood related to Jesus!) because hey you got a personal relationship with God (as some sadists tell themselves). Unlike some...

OK here's a recap: 1. This is a sideshow and l have no idea how it relates to the thread 2. The cross is a solar symbol, it could also be a crucifix, l admit. It could also be the blades of a windmill. It could be the marking on a bun etc. OK correction: the cross can be a solar symbol. 3. We...
