It's true the sun is essential for our life and provides us with the energy necessary for our life, but it's a just a non-living finite object, like all other stars, it has a life cycle. It doesn't want to punish or judge anyone because it can't; it's not conscious, it's not even aware of our existe...

shahrez With out the BRITS/Yanks you would still be hearding goats around the desert you fool So what if they have killed millions in the past and are killing many more even today. The Islamic Golden Age is usually dated from the 8th century to the 13th century,[1] though some extend it to the 14th...

Tthe Sun is a finite object which will die eventually. Actually there is life in the dark deep ocean layers where very little or no sunlight reaches. Organisms rely on alternate sources of energy and some produce their own light through Bioluminescence such as the Anglerfish. Now try to grow somethi...

It's not only about muslims, the west always create such labels as media propagandas.
North Korea was described as part of the so called Axis of Evil by Bush for acquiring a weapon which his country possesses and had actually used against the japanese

debian

The world has no interest in a nuclear war clearly, so stopping the proliferation of such weapons, especially in countries run by dictators, is clearly a good thing for the world. Very well, let's disarm all countries then. As long as some are still producing and developing them others are perfectl...

Dr. Moore hasn't embraced islam ?

debian

I agree disarm in principle, but the clear statment of nuclear capable countries it to use it as a deterrent. Apart from India, the nuclear countries of the world go back decades. There is no reason for countries to develop nuclear capability (and I include India in that) now except for aggressive ...

Sharia law aims to prevent crime and root causes as well, it's not only about punishing the victim it's about preventing what may later lead to or encourage a crime. Some actions are forbidden not because they are crimes in their nature but because they might lead to a crime so Islam restricts as mu...

are you egyptian ?

Islam forbids sleeping on one's belly and recommends sleeping on the right side

The whole thing could have been avoided if she hadn't went to meet the guy, which is what the law states

Jesus never made war on anyone. Christ explicitly states that ALL violence is forbidden, even in self defense.

So why is the US fighting in iraq and afghanistan ?

Men and women meeting platonically in a car is a basic part of life, law or not. it's a basic part of life in the west, muslims have a very different culture Unfortunately such cries from the 'west' will just make the Saudis solidify their stance, in an effort to protect their 'values'. Why does th...

With respect to what happened with freedom and tolerance.. that's a great question. You answer first.

I was just editing but you caught me.
Anyway I never advocated such concepts, the west does

debian

So you don't believe in freedom or tolerance? Nope, I told you we are from very different cultures. Well, not in the materialistic way of the west. These concepts originated from atheism (which later led to secularism). Prophet Muhammad said: "This world is a prison for the believer and a para...

Saudi men must be lacking in values such as respect and self-control (sexual restraint) so the government needed to "protect" their women from them in the way that has just been demonstrated. Instead of instilling good values and behaviour in men when they are around women, they try to su...

debian

Really? What is 'muslim culture'? There are plenty of muslim countries where it is perfectly acceptable by law (there may be some social hesitancy) for men and women to meet by themselves in a car, cafe, house, public space etc. As far as I am aware, (unrelated) men and women can meet as they pleas...

debian

My common senses still tell me that women in saudi are indeed suppressed. The fact that women are still being raped inspite of the strict laws means that it's not working. I still think it's the men that should be educated about respect and the police making sure that no REAL crimes are committed. ...

debian

Oh right they better rape somebody every 2.5 minutes instead of thinking this way

Okay pinoy1, whatever

take a look at the statistics again

debian

I agree with pinoy1. I just don't understand the 'candy' metaphor. This is rape, not sticking your hand in the cookie jar... This whole 'women are such a temptation to men' angle is the weakest, lamest argument in history. I am not an advocate of feminist principles or ideology but when I read stuf...

debian

DEFINITION: Total recorded rapes. Crime statistics are often better indicators of prevalence of law enforcement and willingness to report crime, than actual prevalence. You just shot down your own defence. Keep reading 84% of women did not report their rapes to police According to the FBI’s Uniform...

So my question remains.

why does the west want to enforce its ideologies among others, doesn't that contradict with the ideology itself of freedom and tolerance that they keep preaching all the time ?

debian

So my question remains. why does the west want to enforce its ideologies among others, doesn't that contradict with the ideology itself of freedom and tolerance that they keep preaching all the time ? Why does Saudi persist with rules that have nothing to do with Islam? i.e. why does it prohibit wo...

debian

That's weird, I never knew people use the toilets for ablution

debian

Perhaps, but can you answer the question? It's just as relevant to the topic. why does it prohibit women riding in cars with unrelated men? The prophet didn't even have cars in his day? This is the second time you avoid to answer and dodge the question ... but nevermind. As I said earlier it's not ...

debian

Someone please educate me on this one... Since the topic's about Islam and science (thus technological innovations), I've HEARD before that Islam tells muslims to shun away from these materialistic technological advances. Am I entirely wrong? Yes, on the contrary Islam encourages science and discov...

debian

she made a mistake and caused 7 others to commit a capital sin. This is the contentious bit. Nobody 'causes' themselves to have a crime of this nature perpetrated against them. 7 guys weren't just sitting around, saw her and go, 'oh crap, dude, we need to rape this women because of what she has don...

debian

Rapists are everywhere and sure not all the people there are like this, those are criminals who got punished. The court was right, the media shouldn't have interfered and made all this fuss

debian

Yes vmware is great for learning and test environments just make sure you have a lot of memory and a powerful processor. It will be useful if you want to install linux without modifying your partition table, you can create networked virtual machines and customize them as you want without purchasing ...
