RE: Arguments for God in Quran.
Is the moral argument that MK is refusing to articulate the idea that God is required to account for objective morality? Or is he talking about the one where if there is no afterlife, those who violate or uphold morality will never receive their just desserts? Or some other one? I can't tell from the verse provided.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

I’m not sure. Im thinking the first, as it seems to be his shining favorite.

Who knows.  At some point he'll have to present whatever his argument is supposed to be and drop the religious chanting.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

The verse provides exactly the paradigm I mean, in better, shorter words. I can't do it justice.

What do you make of the word guidance, and what do you make of the word guidance is from God?





Moral argument again:

And who is more astray than one who follows his desire without guidance from Allah ? Indeed, Allah does not guide the oppressors/unjust.

The Quran is full of slavery.

Yeah he's gone from providing shitty arguments to merely alluding to shitty arguments lol.

"Guess which one I've got guys!"

"What crap have you got now MK?"

"No... GUESS!"

Guys it's very easy to extract from the verse.


1. There is such thing as real guidance (moral guidance that love acts by)
2. The real guidance would be guidance from God or otherwise impossible.
3.  Therefore God exists.

And in that paradigm, in that Surah, it's also used to prove to Jews and Christians, there must be interpreters and guides from God, rope from God but a rope from humans, and not to mix the misguidance of false leaders with guidance of leaders from God.

Since it's multilayered, and proves Messengers and the form of chosen families in 3:33 as well, and proves Mohammad and his family as well,  that's not all you can't extract from it. And you can apply to many things.

You can even apply it to the fact God would provide a consistent guidance regarding number of successors, as elaborated by 5:12, and everything in Quran is linked some way or another.

Premise one is false.
Premise two is false
-and the conclusion doesn't follow from premise one or two anyway.

Next.

So now we know why the chaotic winds take you wherever they please Tongue

The Quran also in this paradigm asserts

What is after the truth but misguidance?

So it's either true guidance or it's misguidance.

No wonder you guys are never guided to God, you believe there is only such a thing as misguidance Tongue
