But as a final word in this: I again repeat my words "the night comes after the day".
You didn't address brewers point so repeating your failure doesn't help


Quote:You have your evidence that many atheists are mad at God.
Nope 


Quote:While some may leave belief for lack of evidence, others leave it because they are simply mad and angry about him.
Nope we all lak belief and no ones angry 


Quote:If a child can understand the word "perspective", then this verse will be very clear.
He understands i fine it's you who is misusing it


Quote:I am oblivious about grown ups who keep ignore the perspective thing.
He's not ignoring it your misusing it 

Again you fail  Hilarious

Lack of belief isn't due to actions or inactions.  Lack of belief is due to lack of evidence of the very existence.

Atheists aren't mad at god.  There's no god to be mad at.

You have your evidence that many atheists are mad at God.
While some may leave belief for lack of evidence, others leave it because they are simply mad and angry about him.

To be mad at a god means you have to believe in that god.

Being atheist means you don't believe in a god or gods.  

It's really that simple.

There is nothing about night or day, the reference is moon and sun.

How about we make it hot (sun) and cold (moon)? Sighted and blind. Birth and death.

Do you see the problem?
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

RE: [Quranic Reflection]: By the sun and its morn
The term for people who believe in gods, but believe that gods are evil - is maltheist.

They're theists, Winter...just like you. The only difference is that they see the character in magic book for what it is.
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!

It's clear allright. Clearly bullshit. You cite verses as being fact and then argue from poetic license when you're shown that they aren't. The only thing that's good for is fertilizing the garden.

The sun is known to be 1 main contributor to the day, so it is an obvious reference to it.
Hot and cold have no direct references because some days are cold and some nights are hot. So no, I frankly don't see where the problem is !

I am more than clear: the perspective is everything, and Islam doesn't limit God to the heaven -as it is in the mainstream Christianity contributed to-, rather:

Quote:Sura 2, The Quran:
https://quran.ksu.edu.sa/index.php?l=en#...rans=en_sh

( 115 )   And to Allah belongs the east and the west. So wherever you [might] turn, there is the Face of Allah. Indeed, Allah is all-Encompassing and Knowing.
Allah is not limited to a place, he is in the heavens, but also everywhere. He is God up there, and God down here.

Ah so much silliness 


1. Trying to associate the sun with day and the moon with night fails as the moon can be seen during the day and if we want to be technical eclipses are both the sun and the moon in the sky a the same time oh and the midnight sun .

2. That destroyed the moon doesn't follow the sun th two things are on parallel paths 

3. Three the ancient world already understood the association of he sun with daytime .Not just in mythology but actual science centuries before your pedo warlord was hockin carpets .So there is nothing special about your book . 

4. Brewers suggestion of temperatures is totally viable as day tends to be colder then night especially in a dessert and his other ones about Sighted and blind. Birth and death were good too as metaphors . You just want to consider them because you want your magic book to be a science book .


5. The earth blocking the sun is not the night covering it . Night time is not freaking throwing the sun in a sack .

6. And no the sun is actually not the main thing it has to work with other things to produce day . An orbit that puts us close enough to see the sun , An Atmosphere that's to like too thick for light to go through ,Depending on were you are on the earth axis rotation . The sun can shine all it can .But if none of these factors were present there would be no day as your naive brain understands it .

Wonder if winter will respond and cause himself a "problem "
