“(In paradise) Eat and drink pleasantly for what you did…Reclining on thrones set in lines, and We will unite them to large-eyed beautiful ones.” http://cwis.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/052.qmt.html

“(Regarding Heaven) Then we have made them VIRGINS,” http://www.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/056.qmt.html#056.036

The Quran doesnt say what woman get so we are left to assume that Islamic sexism continues in heaven or that they get similar to what men get.

If they get similar, then we might assume that they also get a throne with clueless lovers (virgins) upon it, who are also beautiful and have large organs.

Can you imagine it...a Muslimah who was forced to marry a fat hairy beast of a thing, never having had an orgasm in her entire pathetic life, now in Islamic heaven, on a throne, with handsome men everywhere ready to blast her with more orgasms...

I don't know about the rest of you, but "coming out" to me is one of the most personal decisions you can make. Don't you think that it's a little silly that they made a day for it? Like, oh gotta tell the parentals I'm a homo...National Coming Out Day is next week. I see the good intentions and everything, but I think it is overall just a bad idea...Coming Out Day should be whenever the hell you feel comfortable enough to come out and not given a specific day.

Without islam, the West would not have survived its own barbaric existence. Muslims contribution to the western world - in art, architecture, astronomy, medicine, science, and learning is the basis of our civilization today .

The early Muslims are credited with inventing distillation and could distil just about anything - from alcohol to perfume. Hygiene is very important in the Muslim world so they invented and manufactured soap - centuries before the West - and hundreds of bathhouses were built throughout Muslim cities. They understood the fundamentals of light and how we see, and gave us the camera obscura. They invented algebra and worked out the angle of the tilt of the earth. They built the first windmill, pioneered the concept of the crank rod, and designed the first ever torpedo.

If Jesus died to wash us free from our sins, why does the bible say this: , "Man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment" (Hebrews)

If these laws are obsolete, as I was told in my last three questions, why do Christians always quote Leviticus in regards to Homo sexuality?
Thank you, Tammi Dee

He has expressed a great interest in it lately. I have two for research/entertainment purposes only (deist) and though my son can read well, I don't know if such a book is appropriate for a 6 year old. I mean, he can read well. But a six year olds interpretation is very literal. I would feel the same way about the bible or torah or Upanishads, so please, no bashing now. Should I let the boy read it as he wishes? Or, should I take it away? Right now, I have let him have one of them to read. He keeps asking me questions, but I am not a Muslim. I also don't want to discourage him to follow his heart, no matter what I think. What should I do? (Sorry WDISR)

What does a minister of music do at a church that would require him or her a full-time salary? I think they should have a secular job in addition to the music ministry job because leading the music every Sunday and Wed isn't that difficult...How much do YOU think they should be paid?

suffer for their sins and all that---than why is their still so much sadness in the world? WHy do people still suffer? I thought he died so we wouldnt suffer. People die of cancer, aids, diseases all the time, isnt that sufferering. I thought suffering was supposed to go away.

Why is it that people don't like to discuss the Bible with them? Are people afraid that they might be shown something from the Bible that contadicts what they already believe, through their clergy?

“(In paradise) Eat and drink pleasantly for what you did…Reclining on thrones set in lines, and We will unite them to large-eyed beautiful ones.” http://cwis.usc.edu/dept/MSA/quran/052.qmt.html

What if you dont think "large eyes" is beautiful...will you get a normal eyed woman? Isnt this racist, I mean, Asian woman dont fall under this rubric, right?

Suppose you hate monarchies and anything associated with it...do you have to take a "throne"?

Can a throne really be a throne if everyone has one, or just a big seat? Is that what the writers of the Quran really meant...big seats?

I don't care what your beliefs are there is evil. This age is seperating human contact. More emails are sent vs handwriiten letters. Text messages instead of human voice conversations ect. This is making humans unconnected, making us weak. We are dependant and even addicted to machines. Perhaps the demon has a screen name and you chat with him now. I am not a religious freak. Just spiritual and open minded. No stupid responses please.

1.In the time of the ancestors, a man was born to a virgin mother with no biological father being involved.
2.The same fatherless man called out to a friend called Lazarus who had been dead long enough to stink, and Lazarus promptly came to life.
3.The fatherless man himself came alive after being dead and buried three days
4.Forty days later, the fatherless man went up to the top of a hill and then disappeared bodily into the sky.
5.If you murmur thoughts privately in you head, the fatherless man and his ‘father’ (who is also himself) will hear you thoughts and may act upon them. He is simultaneously able to hear the thoughts of everybody else in the world.
6.If you do something bad or something good, the same fatherless man sees all, even if nobody else does. You may be rewarded or punished accordingly, including after your death.
7.The fatherless man’s virgin mother never died but ascended bodily into heaven.
8.Bread and wine, if blessed by a priest (who must have testicles), ‘become’ the body and blood of the fatherless man.

Just one more night, one more score
Another question in my mind, can't take no more
Kissing the tears from my face
As they fall to the ground in the silence

In twilight and faded times, spirits cold, with no love
Bells ring the lonely chime
Candle fire
These lit dreams can't burn alone

Winds of change
Bring songs upon my memory
An empty heart and soul intoxicates me
This darkened page orchestrates my final destiny
Not knowing what
What tomorrow will bring

From within the mirror's eyes
I'm forced to run away and hide
I feel those mystic eyes subside and leave me blind
Through passages in time, a prisoner locked behind the door
Lonely roses slowly wither and die

I can't escape this captive misery
Heart stone cold, under supremacy
Thrown into a raging sea of tyranny
Life's vile walls have tangled me in webs
Eternally within my futures threads, play
The violent strings of my symphony

Transcend
The absence of this fantasy
Just another vision washed away with the tide
No place for forgotten ones
I cannot deny
What lies beyond
Beyond this fantasy
