Then you, or anyone, can't really state precisely just what the hell he was talking about.
It must be very difficult when you have to fight this hard to justify a fantasy.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

It must be very difficult when you have to fight this hard to justify a fantasy. And the worst part is despite all the different ways he said it . It still fails to be precise.

Well, that’s clearly our fault, not the Prophet’s. We’ve fallen into the anti-Islamic trap of expecting words to mean what they mean. See, for all of my life, I thought ‘barefoot’ meant ‘without footwear’, but it turns out that it means ‘naked’. But ‘naked’ doesn’t mean ‘naked’ it means ‘wearing some clothing, but not a lot, because you live in the desert’.
I feel a right Charlie, I do.

No no no, it is my fault.
I never warned Muslims that ABBA is full of porrk.

It never ceases to amaze me that over the last 2000 years prophesy went from "if you don't do X,Y and Z, god wiill come down from his cloud, beat you up and rob your lunch money" to "after event X, lots of religious peoply will clamour to a point to a passage in their holy book which supposedly predicted the event, despite nobody seeing said 'prediction' before the event happened.
Do they think everybody's as stupid as they are?

I thought you can handle one or two different translations of a hadith without complaints..? Did you expect some one-to-one correspondance between Arabic and English...? By the way, naked replaces the word destitute, not barefoot, as I explained some three or four times already.

Actually, we can state what he was talking about with incredible precision, so much so that billions of people imitate every gesture in his prayers, ablution, etc.
