Question is that what the line make senses?

teen siblings came to live with us. Whole family is Muslim. Step son prays 5 times a day, reads the Koran at least as much. 90% of his music is religious chants. If the family sees a film where a man and woman kiss even fully clothed (and PG) he expresses annoyance and fast forwards or turns the channel. Last month the family went out for 3 hrs. When we returned I learned that he had ordered $50 worth of xxx porn using our digital cable. We get the bill and find out that again when house was empty he got $30 in porn. We DISCONNECT the cable. His father asks him, he says it was an “accident” and he didn’t even know what he was pushing (English is not his 1st language) on both occasions. I do not ascribe to any religion. I VERY delicately ask hubby if sonny's actions seem a bit contradictory. He says, “No. He is uncomfortable looking at ppl kissing in front of others. He is comfortable viewing it by himself”. I thought “Did you even address my question?! ” Input about any of this pls?

If you want to go to paradise so you must be a muslim because God won't accept any religion but Islam as he says in the holly quran. If you want to live happily in your life you must follow islam. In our islam we love Allah and muslims and we have morals we must be good honest clean and civilised we accept other religions to live with us in peace.

The real level 7 whynotaskdon always spams his weblink with his answers. Do not click on it. It's a dangerous website full of pop-ups, adwares and spywares. Don't think I'm lying to insult someone. See here:

and why God didn't forgive people instead of sending his son to be killed? you believe in strange things. There is no God but aALLAH Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.

It is everywhere, and the lectures hint at the nonexistence of a Creator?

Many lectures also are sarcastic to the "made up Ideology".

first i was asked to leave a mormon church for wearing something that they didn't like last sunday then today i get a letter from the bishop himself wondering why my wife didn't give her tiething and now just as we were sitting down to dinner a couple of their missonaries show up not to see my wife but to talk to me about my beliefs. i was already mad enough to spit but this put me over the edge!
i told them to get off my property and not come back or i would call the police.(the same thing they threatened to do to me if i didn't leave their church) then i slamed the door in their faces.
so i guess my question is do you think i over reacted?
if so where should the breaking point be?

Salat:

"A prayer ritual performed 5 times a day by all Muslims over the age of 10.

Salat is very different from praying on the inspiration of the moment. A precise ritual is followed at 5 separate times of day which are set aside for devotion:
Between first light and sunrise
After the sun has passed the middle of the sky
Between mid-afternoon and sunset
Between sunset and the last light of the day
Between darkness and dawn
While an individual can pray on their own, Muslims prefer to perform Salat with others, as this demonstrates the unity of all Muslims.

Having specific times each day to be close to Allah helps Muslims remain aware of the importance of their faith, and the role it plays in every part of life."


Don't Muslims see the vanity of this? It isn't something that that comes from your heart. It's a prayer that some man has made up and said that God like it. Isn't there a danger in this kind of worship? A lip service but hearts far from God?

I do not proclaim myself to be any religion but have found my own beliefs to be similiar to a Christians. I would never commit suicide, I just feel it's wrong. However, I would not fight death at this point. I am young I guess (27) but the life I have been forced to live makes me feel much older. A child raised by an abusive single mother. Fending for myself before the age of 9. I married my highschool sweetheart, we have been together for 13 yrs now, married 9...no children. A few months the world I knew shattered. My wife was hospitalized for a week, we found out she has MS. I stayed with her while she was hospitalized and my employer found this as grounds for termination after 6 yrs with them. I have gained new employment but it just isn't the same. My wife is back to 100% but everything seems forever altered. I just feel along the way I lost me! I am not sure who I am anymore, and why I still breath. As always, I pray to God but feel forshakened! Who/Where am I now!

according to the roman church all the books in the bilbe were brought together by the same; but dosent the bible says "a kingdom cannot be divided by its own and revelation clearly judges the roman church as the whore, mother of abominations so how cold they bring out the bible knowing that revelation 17,18 would discredit them and clearly judging them as "the new babylon"
