One of my friends has this conflict . He can not identify with the local music, the customs, the food, etc.. I told him that being of a certain nationality is more than that. What do you think?

Koran-15:19: And the earth We have spread out (like a carpet); set thereon mountains firm and immovable;

Koran-78: 6-7: Have We not made the earth as a wide expanse, And the mountains as pegs (anchor)?


Allah was sure that the Earth is flat like a carpet and that mountains are there to anchor the earth so that the Earth does not shake with us. Allah is really an excellent scientist.

Some say God has to treat everyone equally or he is unjust. God does not treat everyone equally. Some are born poor and some rich, some healthy and some sick, some die young and some do not..who do you think is in charge of all of this?

They whine about so much senseless crap, but don't seem to realize the reason that they CAN whine about the senseless crap. Seems they love freedom of speech, but won't do anything to protect it.

I recently saw a horribly sad and thought provoking documentary detailing the current epidemic of the sex slave trade plaguing parts of Russia. People are selling their children and other peoples children. Any thoughts?

In ~seven hundred years, a global magnetic polarity flux reversal will expose the earth to unshielded cosmic radiation for an unknown period. What will happen to humanity? Will only the wealthy survive underground/water with food provisions for several years? Must the rest die a horrible death like the victims of atomic warfare, only prolonged by temporally distributed radiation?

Protestants use a bible with 66 books. Yet Catholics have 46, the Eastern orthodox have 43,then there are the Ethiopian Coptics, the Mormons and their book, the Jehovahs witnesses, etc.
Furthermore at 2Esdras 14 a total of 94 books were revealed. 24 for the general public and 70 for the elect.
look on the bible gateway and see dozens of different bibles.
Likewise, since a bible was not complied until 324ad by Eusebius( a super antisemite), is it not far more probable that instead of being "Gods book" it is really ,in fact, just the result of the vote of men.
Inspired you say? So all these INSPIRED guys went right out and began persecuting jews, seizing their temples and forbidding their religious practice? Some merciful God that Jesus!
