The diciples were told not to take any money.
Can you believe a person thats getting paid?
He'll tell you what you want to hear right?
I'd believe in one that has a job.
Do you know of one?

Which religious book features the following....

women should dress themselves modestly and decently in suitable clothing, not with their hair braided, or with gold, pearls, or expensive clothes, but with good works, as is proper for women who profess reverence for God. Let a woman learn in silence with full submission. I permit no woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she is to keep silent.

Any guesses?

Mohammed's sexual strength is equal to 30 men.

Anas said, "The prophet used to visit all his wives in an hour round, during the day and night and they were eleven in number." I asked Anas, "Had the prophet the strength for it?" Anas replied, "We used to say that the prophet was given the strength of thirty (men). " Vol. 1:268


Mohammed married a 9 year old girl.

"Narrated Aisha that the prophet married her when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when she was nine years old."Vol. 7:64


Allah hurries to please Mohammed's sexual desires.

When the Quranic verse that allows Mohammed to postpone the turn of any wife was revealed, and when Mohammed said that Allah allowed him to marry his adopted son's wife, Aisha (one of his wives) told him, "O Allah's Apostle I do not see but that your Lord hurries in pleasing you. " Vol. 7:48


When a woman is divorced irrevocably, she can not return to her husband until she marries (including having sexual intercourse) with another man.

"Narrated Aisha: The wife of Rifaa Al-Qurazi came to Allah's Apostle and said, 'O Allah's Apostle, Rifaa divorced me irrevocably. After him I married Abdur-Rahman bin Az-Zubair Al-Qurazi who proved to be impotent.' Allah's Apostle said to her, 'Perhaps you want to return to Rifaa? Nay (You cannot return to Rifaa) until you and Abdur-Rahman (the impotent man) engage in sexual intercourse!" Vol. 7:186

I understand if the reason why Muslim women chose to cover up themselves from head to toe is because they want men to respect them for their intelligence and not their body. This is a noble explaination to make Islam seems like a cool religion, but the ugly side is....

What about Muslim women who have beautiful body and wants to flaunt them in a bikini? Why should they be prosecuted? That is her personal choice. So if she chose to be judged by her body and not her intelligence, why punish her for that?

Because this is giving me the impression that the fancy explaination is just a fancy explaination. The true reason is you really want to oppress women's right to do what they choose with themselves.

Also to those Muslim women who are proud to be cloaked from head to toe, I understand that your religion brought you up to believe that it is a virtuous thing to be covered up, but think about what if you chose not to be virtuous? Then what? It's not a crime, yet they will criminalised you

Isaiah 52 vs 13-53 vs 12 perfectly predicts Jesus 700 years before he came to earth to be our blood sacrifice as moses commanded-Leviticus 17 vs 11 "The life of the flesh is in the blood, and ive given it to make atonement for your souls." and Isaiah in chapters 52&53 "He will be exaulted but first marred more than any man, and lay down his life an atonement for sins."
Im Jewish and believe Moses and Isaiah-
some claim to be Muslim or Jewish and reject the truth-pray for them
Jesus said he knocks on each heart to come in deliver from sins and become our friend-amen Revelation 3 vs 19&20 -i prayed-"Come into my heart, i believe you, im sorry for my sins, help me, be my friend, Amen"
Now im a full Jew with a Jewish Messiah-isnt that great -thanks for prayin for me and my dear Jewish people and all people. ;) thank you -david (;

For me it would be fear. Because fear leads to
many negative emotions.

What about you?

Ok, some people dont believe in God, some do but they dont follow religion like in praying and going to church/mosque/etc.

But when we are in trouble or dont have things we need(ie poor) we call on the name of God to help us.

Why?

Most of the religions(especially the Ibrahimic ones and their branches)agree on one thing it is that.....the end of days is very near..!
Muslims say that it is time for Al-mahdi to be born and for jesus to come down to earth to set peace on earth and destroy blaspheme...
Christians say that jesus will come down to earth in this century to send all blasphemists and non-christians to hell and make all his believers live in peace and happiness for a 1000 years.....some popes assumed that he will come down in 2018 as they added 6+6+6 to the year 2000 because 666 is the satan number for the christians..
Jews say that the end of days is coming...thats why they took jerusalem from the muslims in 1948...to make it ready for the coming of jesus......then all of the non-jew people will be slaves to the jews.....
Jehovah's witnesses say that the end is near...very near...!
and the list goes on and on!...
so dont you think that the end of days is really near...?!

I was just wondering who you think created God. I mean you say it's unlogical that there was suddenly this Big Bang and there was the universe but isn't it just as unlogical that God just suddenly started existing?

I know alot of Muslims who are very strict about the no eating pork bit, but they drink lots of alcohol which I thought was illegal for them to do so, and they wear pig leather shoes, which I thought they weren't supposed to have contact with pigs.

Also, I think Muslims in different countries seems to have varied practices.

to all muslims who keep doing their best to defend mohomed i say that you have lost the game. mohomed had a 9 year old wife, lots of wives and concubines, he murdered, raped, pillaged and lied.
no matter how hard muslims try to defend this prophet, the damage that his lifestyle has done to the image of islam and God will never be repaired.
can anyone who read this prove me wrong?

If not..then wouldnt they have become really hairy? Adam would of had long hair and a long beard.Eve would of had hairy arm pits and legs etc. If so......doesnt this make 'cave man' plausable from a biblical perspective, seeing as how they didnt have houses either?

Nowadays we know of 100's of billions of galaxies.
And its theoritically possible there maybe be billions of universes.
Maybe jesu's words should be understood as 'the meek shall ONLY inherit the earth', but the less than meek will inherit cooler stuff!!
what do you think......come on..its worth the two points.
If you have any bible verses that disprove this view.....go ahead.....quote them, ill read them.

My intuition is usually very strong ( I believe that if we want something to happen with postive intentions behind) it can come to fruition. With Mercury in retrograde all month my intution feels...cloudy. Is what I'm intuitively following, my desire or what is really coming to me? Sometimes they are different - in this case the same. I am concerned that I am not "seeing" clearly because they are the same. I don't want the desire to cloud my vision. The first rule of intuition - Listen to it. Does my intuition tell me that my desire is clouding my vision? No. It tells me to follow it despite the adversity. Any advice?
