Minority of muslims : )
Quote:This thread isnt about what god said, this thread is about what muslims say.
I know. My reply was to show that this guy is confused.
Many muslims talk about religion without making sure that what they say is compatible with the holy book or not.
Many talk based not on their understanding of the Quran, but with what some scholars say ( like your friend ; Al-Fattihah), the guy had weird opinions because he was following imams, not the Holy Book.
Just wanted to state that, so you don't get confused why muslims contradict themselves sometimes.
Quote:So you can prove it wasnt aliens or the devil that gave muhammed the message?
Interesting point.
For me, the Quran is so pure, just like the cherry blossom. A bubble head alien can't come with that.
To be honest with you, it's mere faith
Or you can say, falling in love with the source of the book, it's wonderful.
If it was revealed by a demon or an alien, it would've been a different book. I'm sure about that
Quote:Doing things a specific amount of time everyday, at certain times of the day, in a specific direction everyday is by definition like OCD, people with OCD often feel the need to do things specific amount of times like touching things a certain amount of times or looking in a certain direction an amount of times and also experience the need to wash a certain amount of times.
Ive tried prayer, it was as boring as having a one way conversation to somone in a coma who you have never met. The only difference being you can see somone in a coma and they still have some signs of life.
Hmm, yeah it's my bad, if you don't believe in god & also love him, you won't feel the taste of the prayers.
But if a person eats his 3 meals on time, is it an OCD also ?
Quote:People who follow a peaceful religion dont become violent in my opinion, it depends on your definition of peaceful.
Humans have arrogance, which can turn anybody violent. Also greed & other factors.
Islam tries to destroy those factors. But it's all about what that person is doing with Islam.
As an arab, I saw a lot of people moved by arrogance & greed, and they used religion to get what they want (either muslims or christians).
Saudi arabia is the biggest example. The were moved by tribal motives (to bring honor the Saud family by ruling the country).
The used Islam to control the crowds and eliminate any aggression against their ruthless rule.
You see, they are greedy chumps who used religion as a weapon. Not the opposite .
Quote:The verse is very accurate at describing what? Where the prostate gland is? where the sperm is made? where the seman is? If you think man is made from seman then i have to disagree.
Also this isnt about how accurate the quran is this is about contradictions muslims say, muslims all agree the quran is accurate we have established that, but they all say its correct for different reasons.
Hmm, the conclusion is that god created humans. As simple as that.
About the method, semen is an important factor in the creation of humans.
Semen is produced in backward area of the body, a little bit down
a great information for medieval people. A great one for modern humans too, to know that "god created humans".
