I'm a Muslim, what do you think about me?

I don't support terrorists.

I don't support terrorism.

I don't believe in killing anyone who's not a Muslim.

I highly dislike the fact that people judge all Muslims by what idiotic radical lunatics have done in the name of Islam - Whom I also hate.

I try to do my best to stand up against terrorism.

I don't believe in drawing my information from the Media considering that that's where most people get their false information about Muslims from.

I don't enjoy harming people and/or animals -- Nor do I actually harm any.

Have any of you considered actually reading the Quaran instead of believing every racist thing you see on websites? Or every negative thing the Media posts about us?

What do you think of me?

What do you seek?

i read many individuals questions about spirituality and religion. But I am personally interested in the heart of what you as individual seek? Think out of the box. Apart from religion, tradition or philosophy - in your own personal desires and aspirations, what do you want. What do seek and why is it important to you. What brought you to what you belief? Experience or knowledge? Are they absolute to you and are you pursuing it because it's something you really believe in? An honest question looking for an honest answer

Noah's Ark Dimensions / Proof of a higher power?

If there is no God, and everything in the Bible is a bunch of made up junk, how come modern maritime researchers have concluded the dimensions given for Noah's ark in the Bible are near optimal?

I think this is funny?

In a Sunday worship, there are many ways for one's soul to be saved: Accept Christ as a savior, drink a certain kind of wine, eat that round thing, and everything....

If there are as many ways as this, we'll be saved a lot of times, don't you think so?...

Anyway, I thought of this question because a certain pastor was asking many things from his listeners. I was one of them. There were many parts of the worship and it took hours. One of the parts was when we were given a small glass of a certain kind of wine. I didn't get one. The pastor said, "raise your glass of wine and let's drink it at the same time. Those who will not drink will not go to heaven." Well, I didn't because I found it funny.

God believers, Is this why truly good people are less likely to believe in God?

1. Jesus died for your dirt? Truly good people are not in favor of someone else paying the price for your wrong doings.

2. Heaven and hell? Truly good people aren't being good just to get a reward. Hell doesn't frighten people who know they're good

3. Truly good people find it difficult to relate to a God that allows murder to be commited in his name.

4. Truly good people have high standards of behavior. How could they believe in a God with such low standards.

5, Truly good people aren't intimidated by the unknown. Why should we? We haven't hurt anyone

6, Truly Good people know it's not wrong to require more evidence of God's existence. Who are we hurting? Noone. That's how we see it and a truly good God would understand this.

Evil Eye: Myth or Mythology?

I came across this:

Belief in witchcraft and ‘evil eye’ exists in various communities. ‘Evil eye’ especially is so widespread and so feared that even mainstream religions recognise it. It is known as ayin horeh in Hebrew; ayin harsha in Arabic, droch shuil in Scotland and mauvais oeil in France. It is bˆsen Blick in Germany, mal occhio in Italy and was known as oculus malus among classical Romans.

Almost invariably, whenever Pope Pius IX pronounced blessings on people or visited certain places, disaster and death followed. Secular critics of Roman Catholics believed the pontiff had an ‘evil eye.’

‘Evil eye’ is mentioned in the Bible in Deuteronomy 15:9. In the Middle East, Muslims read the Qur'an in Surat al-Falaq or an-Nas to give protection against ‘evil eye’.

Your take?
