One can of course be a genuinely good person by not harming anybody his entire life, maybe devote himself to charity work, and at the same time refuse to worship God while acknowledging that some evidence presented to him is compelling, that is, matching the kafir' description. According to Islamic belief - or any abrahamic belief -, this person does go to hell. Do we disagree ? is this repugnant or unfair ? The simple thing is : it's not up to us..We just had a catholic tell us the same thing. So what if god is going to do repugnant or unfair things - nothing we can do about it. What I'm wondering , though, is whether you agree with those unfair and repugnant things, in whatever you believe their proper context to be.
Quote:If one knowingly denies evidence for a creator, that is, the same power or deity that gave him the very brain and other senses he's denying it with, then it doesn't matter, according to Islamic belief, how good and cute he is. It doesn't matter if I took care of my neighbor's garden after I denied his existence and pretended I have absolute freedom and authority.-and for people like that...the proper context..?
Quote:Secondly, I never said atheists or some Muslims cover up the truth. In general, it's very difficult to actually be a kafir and just continue to deny very compelling evidence one did encounter. Lots of objections can be cleared up if this is understood properly, such as whether Islam is an extremist belief or a threat to society etc. or any similar accusation.I doubt that you've addressed any persons objections to islam - and I still have the same question that I did before you responded. If you're attempting to clear up some objection based around islam being a threat to society - telling us that the group you think kafir properly refers to is smaller than some people think...well.....that isn't going to help. Your religion of war has a focused shitlist - you think that it's the size of the shitlist rather than it's existence that's the problem.
