Islam true religion?

[reverendjeremiah]

By far the best post in this thread. Thanks for the advice akhi. I was expecting Atheists to more respective but I was wrong.

No, you expected us to "take your word for it". the thing is, if we are going to have such a mind set, then that means you also were being disrespectful by NOT taking the atheists word for it as well. Respect is a two way street Zakir.

Notice how I respect Rayaan quite deeply. I consider him to be quite intelligent, respectful, and considerate of others.

He is also one of the few religious types who understands atheists and how they think, how they approach arguments, etc... something you should learn. Because Rayaan is respectful and RECIPROCATIVE, I have learned much more from him about muslims than what i have read in that quran of yours.

In other words, if you give and take instead of just take, you might actually reach a few people on this forum. Dont expect them to convert to Islam, of course, but you might change some of their view on Muslims. right now Islam has a bad rap in America like Paganism did back in the 1980's...but MUCH worse. It would seem becoming of you to ease off the evangelism and actually have civil discussions where you try to find common ground. That would be a good start if you wish to stay here.

I will stop posting in this thread as it has 26 pages and it's just getting repetitive.

Who said you have to stop? Try a different approach. Try something new.

But thank you so much for your advice. May Allah protect you.

Rayaan is bad ass like a thick cut peppered bacon, Lettuce and tomato sandwich with an ice cold ale.

...well, maybe not THAT bad ass, but Rayan would definitely be the pickle spear on the side...or maybe the potato chips.

*insert random hummus joke here*

The flys (atheists) on this site are more attracted to honey than bullshit.

Learn to have a sense of humor about everything and anything and you will see that respect that you want on this forum.
