I guessed as much zonker - and as I say, I agree with you that it is an interesting theory. I've often used the argument that I consider God's power within the universe to be analogous to the programmer of a sim game - where the programmer has put in certain rules and chooses not to break those rule...
numpty = incompetent, weak willed, easily led - from the shallow end of the gene pool. The majority of EDL supporters will be numpties for example. These are the losers who want to hurt society and look for causes - they will usually download the anarchist handbook and have delusions of grandeur, bu...
I trust that you also read my clarification (which was more precisely worded): It is clear to all that Islam DOES NOT condone s.ex outside marriage or forced marriages - and no arguments have been presented to contradict this fact. Islam does not condone s.ex outside marriage and forced marriages - ...
gertrude - why do you react so violently when facts are stated? It is clear to all that Islam DOES NOT condone s.ex outside marriage or forced marriages - and no arguments have been presented to contradict this fact. The separate matter of the marriage of the Prophet to Aisha is a red herring. One i...
I also believe in science and the scientific method. I believe in rationality and logic. If you were a sim in the simulation - would you insist that the rules you see around you came into being at the big-boot-up of the programme and that there is no programmer, or would you side with those who foll...
It is clear to all that Islam DOES NOT condone s.ex outside marriage or forced marriages - and no arguments have been presented to contradict this fact.
This thread isn't about how loons deliberately spin events from over 1000 years ago.
The fact that I stated is that Islam, the religion, does not allow forced marriages. I stated in my first post that there is an issue in some Pakistani families in the UK. Herve couldn't read an article properly and thought that 70% of muslim marriages in the UK are forced (they aren't). Indeed, I a...
:roll: Loons and their fantastic theories! It is clear to all that Islam DOES NOT condone s.ex outside marriage or forced marriages - and no arguments have been presented to contradict this fact. Everything else (including Imams/Priests feeling up children) doesn't change this fact. Cheers, Shafique
I have yet to find a disconnect between rationality, logic and a belief that there is a creator of the Universe who can communicate with His creations, and does reveal His guidelines for His creations. I'd say Prof Abdus Salam knew more than me about Agriculture and knew more about the fundamental f...
Caps - therein lies the difference. Loons insisting they know more about Islam than Muslims and citing Memri specials in favour of the loon version of Islam. Your problem is that Islam does not condone forced marriages or s.ex outside marriage. No arguments have been given to contradict this. The po...
Muslim Savior of Holocaust Jews CAIRO – Delving into untold stories of the Holocaust, a new film is shedding the light on heroism of Muslims who risked their lives to rescue Jews from the Nazi brutality. “This film is an event,” Benjamin Stora, France’s pre-eminent historian on North Africa, told T...
I'd be very interested in hearing your views after you've read the speech and discussing any specific points raised in it that you disagree with. The scientific method hasn't proven many theories yet or uncovered the real nature of many aspects of the universe. We have some good models, but they don...
Islam doesn't condone forced marriages or s.ex outside of marriage. If you truly believed Islam does allow forced marriages, you'd be able to quote a cleric in full rather than rely on Memri specials. It's not as if there is a shortage of written material on the subject... but loons are apparently a...
2+3 could also equal 10. ;) (There are I0 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't) But seriously, given that 99% of the knowledge is unknown, I find it odd to not have a view on the 99% of the yet to be proven/discovered aspects of knowledge. Indeed, having a vi...
The last successful suicide bomber (using plane as a weapon) in the USA was Joe Stack last February, the Hutaree Christian Militia caught this year in the USA had more ammo and explosives than all the 'Islamist' terror suspects caught since 9/11 in the USA and your political bedfellow Brievik went o...
2+3 could also equal 10. ;) How? 2+3 in dec, hex, and oct is 5. In binairy 10+11=101 Think outside the box FD - between hex and binary there are other bases. ;) Zonker - to me too, 2 + 3 equals 5, but others may not live in a base 10 world. But back to the main issue - I have no issue with other pe...
What is shocking to me is how easily, it seems, these nutters are able to make explosives. I cannot understand your shock. I blame my socialistic past when partisipation in various Olympics in Math, Physics or Chemistry (don't mix up with Al Chemy) was counted as more amusing pastime for week-end t...
http://www.dubaiforums.com/dubai-politics-talk/terrorism-the-the-facts-t41878.html According to this data, there were more Jewish acts of terrorism within the United States than Islamic (7% vs 6%). These radical Jews committed acts of terrorism in the name of their religion. These were not terrorist...
^Kanelli - the video above is a criticism against Ayatollah Khomeni allegedly having s.ex with a 4 year old and then issuing a fatwa explaining why this is allowed. The video is by Sunni (Wahabis, from Saudi, I guess) and is an attack on Khomeni and Shia. It is not quoting hadith or Quran - but rath...
BM you decided to post propaganda pics comparing Palestinians living under siege with Jews under Hitler - I just showed that more relevant pictures show a different side of the story. This thread is about Muslims saving Jews during the Holocaust. I trust you read the OP and understood what was said....
Telling the truth and exposing and denouncing injustices is just one of the aspects of Islam. When it comes to explaining the truth about Islamic teachings, I do indeed agree with the lady that one's actions should be in total accordance with the beautiful, logical and peaceful teachings of Islam. I...
