Wow, a message from 1999 - fascinating stuff.

You never said whether you actually read the posts you posted in this thread - or whether you believe in Rapture or not.

Cheers,
Shafique

Another fantasy based on belief rather than any evidence.

Why let facts get in the way of a good prejudice - eh?

As with all eh postings, one needs to check whether he's actually read what he's posted. So, eh - is it worth us actually reading what you've posted above? Or is it another cut and paste jobby that you haven't read? And how is this different from the discussion where you posted a video from Memri wh...

I also find many of eh-oh's pastings funny - sometimes it's even intentional. :alien: But as I said in my direct answer to eh's question - the Quran is quite clear that Jesus was not killed by the Jews (as the Bible says) or Romans (as the 'new' story goes), which is one of the major differences bet...

As an aside, I've wondered whether the inhabitants of Sydney or Melbourne would agree that the Aborigines should be given back control over the land they used to unquestionably owned before being denied access so relatively recently. The same question could be applied to New Zealand, Canada and of c...

Well, given eh opened the door on the subject, let's see what the website alislam.org has to say on Jesus. There's a whole section here: http://www.alislam.org/topics/jesus/ Ahmadi Muslims hold the unique belief that Jesus (peace be upon him) survived the crucifixion and travelled towards India to c...

shafique

I don't know what is the unclear point for you. I claimed that harassments are because of Islam's teaching, and I supported my idea, with the logioc, We understand that. However dee07 challenged the logic with some pretty well-made arguments based on first hand experience of Cairo's specific issues...

shafique

Are you having difficulty with the question, shafique? Pray tell, on what grounds/reasons would a secular Muslim husband discipline his wife that a religious Muslim would not? Well, if by 'secular' you mean a person who does not follow all the rules God has laid down in the Quran - then it is quite...

shafique

I did recall correctly that it was a MEMRI video - translated and edited by them. Do you think they don't have an Islamophobic agenda? Do they not have a track record of misleading people with false translations and misleading editing? The video in question did feature a male lawyer giving his opini...

There's probably zero chance of London banning minarets - the government love Saudi money too much. Look at the way they compromised the justice system and stopped the investigation of bribery in the Al Yamama (sp?) affair. Agree with Roadtester that a major problem with Muslims is a lack of unity a...

shafique

Excellent - so you've read what I've posted for a change.

See, it isn't hard to cut and paste and read what you've pasted! (But to be fair, I did have to search out from the web site a simply worded summary for you and click on at least two or three links

)

Cheers,

Now we wait for eh's updated count of Muslim convert terrorists. It last stood at 7, IIRC.

Hey, I thought my point about the UK government not wanting to offend the Saudis was a pretty non-trivial point - given that the topic was about some polls about banning minarets. Banning minarets is a pretty silly idea - hence the redneck allusions (they also believe in silly - though not sophistic...

shafique

I have to admit, yes I am having trouble comprehending your questions. You want reasons that a non-practicing Muslim would use to beat their wives that a practicing Muslim would not also use? Non-practicing Muslims can also follow God's commandments and not strike their wives in anger, when drunk et...

shafique

Do you believe MEMRI gives you the whole truth?

Why should we trust this lawyer to tell the truth - do you believe everything lawyers say?

Cheers,
Shafique

shafique

What was your count? The NLFT are terrorists. No question. The NLFT is made up of Christian Converts (and they are listed on the same website which classifies the LRA as Christian Terrorists). As they are Christian, and as they all converted since the 90's (just see the first two pages of this threa...

shafique

Well, given that eh-oh appears to have some time on his hands, I thought I'd remind him of this unanswered question.

So c'mon - are you one of these 'Rapture' believers or not? Or are you embarrassed to answer?

Cheers,
Shafique

shafique

Another one of those threads which eh probably now has time to reply to, perhaps?

shafique

Just a bump for Flying Dutchman to comment on. He accused me of being 'hateful' and committing 'anti-semitic libel' for using the phrase 'Jews-Only roads' in the thread about South Africa comparing Israels actions to Apartheid. If it was me, I'd apologize for the slur against my character - but hey,...

shafique

Well, along with the million or so Muslims in London, there are also a good number of Chavs. These two groups are not mutually exclusive - so you will have Muslim chavs (which reminds me of a 'Goodness Gracious Me' sketch - but that is another story). These guys are our equivalent of rednecks - and ...

shafique

Yes, I agree - the British government won't enact stupid laws such as banning minarets despite what a particular poll might say. The system is designed to stop stupid laws being enacted, but sometimes that doesn't work. When Catholic Converts go ahead and agree with born again ex-Alcoholic numpty Pr...

shafique

eh- I have to ask - did you actually read through this article this time? In what way does what the article say disagree with what dee07 posted - regarding why Egyptian men (Copts, Muslims etc) grope women in Cairo? Is the solution, in your mind, that men should be allowed to have s.ex before marria...

shafique

Ha ha - please make up your mind, in another thread you seem to be saying that Muslim men should have access to more p<3n and this will help them stop harrassing women (but I get your logic - if they behave more like westerners, they'll learn to respect women and only abuse one in 5 women). I like y...

shafique

Cool, so I've answered your question - and I agree that practicing Muslim men won't beat their wives in anger. When you are a bit older, this will make sense to you - but it is hitting women in fits of anger that is a hallmark of violence against women. It takes a cold hearted bastard to sit a woman...

Are you avoiding this question?

Terrorists who converted from other religions is the only criterion we both agreed on. Point has been proven - and agreed upon by you. I really can't help you if you are now doubting yourself, the evidence is still there on the first and second pages of this thread. But, more to the point, where is ...

shafique

Ok, fair enough. I certainly concede that NLFT are converts to Christianity. It's unfortunate that some Christians have been corrupted by the teachings found in other religious books which say to attack unbelievers and those who attack unbelievers will become martyrs for killing being killed whilst...

If under internationial law the settelememts would be illegal, to whom does it rightfully belong then? It is terra nullius. It didn't belong to anybody rightfully before 1967. Why the 'if'? The ICJ has ruled unequivocably that the colonies are illegal. International Law doesn't give a free-pass to ...

Isn't it fascinating what happens when we don't accept Israeli excuses at face value for refusing to make peace and accept the Arab Peace Plan and explore whether they hold any water. So, on the question of refugees - the Peace Plan is fine with the issue of resolving Palestinian refugees, but for J...
