This was what I was responding to when I posted Father Murphy O'Conner's Good for you. You found an off topic quote via google from a Biblical scholar and posted it here. Do you want congratulations that you can find quotes online? No the fact that you acknowledge that O'Conner is a Biblical schola...

+It is interesting that he outright contradicts your view of this passage - that it is not only a contradiction, but a fabrication. It's also interesting that the views of orthodox Islam disagree with your opinion that the Koran Cool, we don't disagree that O'Conner flatly contradicts your view on ...

So, eh states in another thread that the information I'm posting above is 'well known' - which was my contention all along - it is a well known fact that the Bible contains verses inserted by Pauline Christians and falsely attributed to various authors, and that these inserted verses are in support ...

shafique

Another gentle reminder that we're still waiting for eh-oh's condemnation.

Cheers,

Welcome. I agree with what you said. In fact, I'd go further - a Muslim is not allowed to look down at another human being, it is for God to judge. One is taught to be humble and to speak out when we see things that are wrong, and if possible act - but never in an arrogant way. Sometimes we may need...

shafique

Totally agree - one should indeed examine the claims and make up one's mind. That's why I'm all in favour of subjecting the claims of Orientalists and seeing whether evidence supports their views, or whether only a selective reading of history is needed for their (now discredited) views to hold. Sim...

shafique

I know you want to believe that my views are not based on an examination of the historical material and scholarly works - no issues with you wanting to hold that belief. Questioning whether I can read is an ad hominem attack, especially when I have quoted O'Conner above categorically contradicting y...

It looks like I won't have time to update the count this week as I had hoped.. so the count still stands at: For the period 2001 to 2003: No. Christian converts carrying out terrorist acts: 169* No. people killed by these: 210 *this is a minimum figure, actual figure is higher due to conservative as...

shafique

You really like flogging dead horses don't you - I've agreed with you that I agree the Quran contradicts your interpretation of 9.29! I've also pointed out that Orientalists love to selectively quote - and we've seen you do that on many occasions - precisely drawing the wrong conclusions. But hey - ...

shafique

Again with the misrepresentation? I quoted from a book by experts (not one guy) dealing with the compilation of the Bible (a Bible commentary). I chose to quote a Biblical and historical expert who has examined the evidence for writings attributed to Paul. Now, I totally agree that your view is a vi...

shafique

169 vs 1 I'm not counting attacks between terrorist groups, or where the government forces have attacked the terrorists - the count of the Christian converts is being limited to where they are attacking and killing or injuring civilians. I have included all deaths causes by these attacks. As I state...

shafique

So, do you support them when they kill women and children, or will you just refuse to condemn them like you refuse to condemn Goldstein? The point in the other thread though was that Christian Converts were carrying out terrorist acts. There doesn't seem to be any doubt that either: 1. They are terr...

Also, don't take my word for it - how about the US Government's classification: The National Memorial Institute for the Prevention of Terrorism classified the National Liberation Front of Tripura (NLFT) as one of the ten most active terrorist groups in the world in 2003 . They wrote: “ The NLFT, lik...

shafique

As I said, I agree with your opening argument - the Quran does indeed contradict your interpretation of 9.29 etc. By extension, it also contradicts anyone agreeing with you (or who you think agree with you). Thanks for the opportunity for allowing me to reiterate this point. I'm still at a loss wher...

shafique

I'm not a fan of flogging dead animals - but I chose the lesser of two evils when I responded to your request for more references. I take it from your reply above that Father O'Conner's credentials are not going to be disputed by you, and that you are just aligning yourself with those who still beli...

shafique

Thanks for posting the NLFT's manifesto. The info from the US government and the Indian anti-terror group doesn't contradict the manifesto - just informs us that they are a terror group and lists their terrorist attacks, as well as their Christian credentials. The 'Holy Army' as they call their mili...

shafique

Did Ibn Abbas agree with you that the contradictory verses of the New Testament weren't added by Pauline Christians? I must have missed that commentary (or perhaps you are mixing threads again) ;) As I said, it is very amusing to see you bring up the Quran in a thread about your contention that the ...

shafique

I understand the argument - everyone else is wrong and your in-depth research (consisting of quoting the manifesto) gives you greater insights. Hmm. So, the fact that the manifesto of this Christian Terrorist group does not mention that they are are Christian Terrorists disproves all the other refer...

bump (again)

David Cameron.

We now have a new PM (apologies for bringing the topic back to the question in the thread header!

)

Cheers,

I see that France is debating the same issue in their parliament. I'm surprised that no one brought up the issue that Ninjas will also be banned under these laws - so no more dressing up for Haloween as Ninjas then! (and, come to think of it, will that mean that Mummy, Ghost etc costumes will also b...

shafique

Ah, welcome back - and you're welcome about the updated info about Christian terrorists above.

I guess the count can resume for your unanswered questions then.

(See thread below - Bible and Science - it's now approaching 2 months without an answer..)

Cheers,
Shafique

shafique

Hey, eh - as I said before, once you start dating you'll have a different perspective. Thanks for sharing your interpretations though - nice to see that you haven't picked up any new arguments in your absence. ;) Will you get round to defending the Bible's claim that the earth can stop rotating for ...

shafique

If he was, then he deserves to be in this thread about christian terrorists. Last time I looked he was another numpty McVeigh wannabe and wasn't a Christian terrorist like the LRA or the Hutaree above (although I guess both he and the Hutaree are American numpty wanabe terrorists). Hey, I'm all for ...

shafique

Good to see the British tradition of throwing fruit at fools (and politicians) is still alive and well. In the past the fools were put in stocks though. ;) It was so funny to see Nick Griffin lose so badly in the election - so much for popular support for eh's friends then! And this was after he app...

shafique

Yes, as we've established many times before - you think your interpretations are correct. It appears you also seem to think you're funny (and to be fair, sometimes you do indeed make me chuckle). May I refer you to my previous quotes about Ad Hominem attacks and what they say about your arguments? ;...
