If the old testament tells that Lot's daughters seduced him sexually and one of Jacob's sons fucked his mother , then the new one won't say anything better . And the word "New" means a new edition from the old edition that had been distorted and re-written .Arising_uk wrote:but one thought is that the Christians should follow the New Testament not the Old so your quotes are not relevant.
I had a conversation with christians , they worship Jesus but they don't consider him God , they consider him God's son .I also think they don't worship Jesus but 'God', much as the Muslim claims to do.
think it a blind thing and leads to much grief in the world because it brooks no competitors.
An atheist in Egypt can live his life safely in the middle of 70 millions muslims and he can make youtube videos telling others why he is an atheist , why he is not convinced of the Quran and express his thoughts freely but without insult or offence . And I think this is so fair enough and great .
I don't want to change what we are talking and get into another point but there are many reasons and things in the Quran that give me certainty in Islam and makes me mentally confident in my faith .Personally I understand why you theist believers have a faith as its a useful thing when faced with the reality of the world and can give much succour but it was given to you before you could reason
Each prophet's experience has it's different conditions and details . Jesus was born of a virgin mother , that is his own experience and case . Mohammad was an illiterate man but he made a civilization , probably you disagree with the word "civilization" but it was an Islamic civilization that was born and extended from Mecca to far places . And when Gabriel angel first came to Mohammad in Hiraa grotto , he told him read , Mohammad answered I don't read , he embraced him strongly and left him then told him again read , he said I don't read , for third time Gabriel embraced Mohammad , left him and told him read , he said what shall I read ? , Gabriel replied " Recite in the name of your Lord who created - Created man from a clinging substance. Recite, and your Lord is the most Generous - Who taught by the pen -Taught man that which he knew not." . This situation proves that there are two character , each one has strong characteristics , one saying read , the other replying rapidly according to the fact that he's an illiterate man .For example, I've heard from Muslims that your 'prophet' was illiterate before he wrote the Koran and this shows that it is the word of 'God' but this nonsense is up there with the Christian idea of a 'virgin' birth.
Stop bringing that mother fuckin fundamentalist extreme model that doesn't represent me nor 95% atleast of muslims .What would you say to a Buddhist who brooks no 'God'? We know what the Muslim Taliban think about them as they destroyed priceless Buddhist artefacts due to their faith in the Koran.
