...and causing worldwide tension between zMuslims, and prettymuch everyone else?
Where is that unified voice proclaiming this?

If this were to happen maybe more people would take many Muslims claims of being a peaceful group more seriously.

Frankly I hear and see more people trying to defend these actions.

If a Muslim woman was wearing a veil and was dealing with someone who was hard of hearing and needed to lip read the person they where talking to, would she be expected to take off her veil?

If not, how would she deal with this situation?

I received this email a couple of days ago, I think it has a really good perspective





IF SOMEONE HAD A GUN HELD IN FRONT OF YOUR FACE AND ASKED YOU IF YOU BELIEVED IN GOD, WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
SAY NO AND FEEL ASHAMED THE REST OF YOUR LIFE? OR SAY YES, I DO, AND DIE STANDING UP FOR GOD? IF YOU'D SAY NO, THEN DELETE THIS E-MAIL. IF YOU WOULD SAY YES, PASS THIS ON.

Funny, isn't it?

Funny how simple it is for people to trash God and then wonder why the world's going to hell.

Funny how we believe what the newspapers say, but question what the God says.

Funny how everyone wants to go to heaven provided they do not have to believe, think, say, or do anything the God says. (Or is it scary?)

Funny how someone can say "I believe in God" but still follow Satan (who, by the way, also "believes" in God).

I'm going to try this one again. I didn't express it well enough in my last question. (link below)

Here is the scenario. I am true, 100% atheist. I am WILLING to believe in God, but I don't. I can't force myself to believe in something that I don't believe. Why can't atheists force themselves to believe in God?

Or could a human being observe human nature and study the history of the human being and say heh theres lots of war and crime and famine,

and then write a book and predict future war and crime,

and say God told me.

His predictions of course come true, as it is the nature of man.

If someone talked to God don't you think God would give them some scientific insight? Wouldn't an accurate cosmology be a better check for accuracy then "war"

Sort of like PhyEd, but with ethical conduct. We would teach humily, charity, compassion, responsibiliy, forgiveness, perseverence, resilience, etc. And keep it secular!

Do you like my idea? I think it help to get our 'moral compass' back in place.

There is not one iota of historical data from contemporary historians to suggest anyone matching the description of Jesus ever walked the earth, The Romans never mentioned him at the time, and they are the ones who put him to death? meticulous records keepers that they were?

And if so, do they also believe the sun is about the same age?
Since in Genesis, the sun was made after the earth?
Accordingly four days after.
And also if the sun is 4.5 billion years old, why can't the other stars in the universe also be older then the sun, such as the star in our own milky way galaxy that dates to about 14 billion years ago, which I just realized is a large difference from that of are sun, why is that?
Maybe it is a conspirocy?

Psalms 137 6-9. God told them to bash babies against a rock. Some how I don't think so. God is loving and kind and compassionate. He would never tell people to do that. So do you think that the people writing that are like the insane people today who drown there kids in the bath tub and tell everyone that God told them to do it. We think they are insane now. But back then they let those people write in the bible. What do you think?

when a single person is still in grief. O lord; O allah; O Jesus ; O guru ; if you are something then punish me on behalf of all the sinners of universe, so that there will be atonement for every one’s sins. According to the narrator of bible, sin is the all cause of sorrows. Jesus takes pain and dies on the cross, because of the sins committed by others. If the almighty pardons without crucification, then he is disobeying his own principles. So to rescue the people from the sins, experiencing crucification is a must. If every body’s sins are washed away by crucifying a single person, then allow me the opportunity to be crucified on behalf of others. What difference does it make, whether it is Jesus or an ordinary man. It should only mean the atonement of sins. And by doing this if everybody’s sins are cleared and the peace comeback to the peoples life, then O lord, I am ready to be crucified on your behalf in front of the people of whole universe. Let me climb on the cross.
Let me be pierced with nails. Let me be crowned with thorny crown. With the lifting of hammer, let my shrill be echoed in the sky. Let the sky be shaken with this scene. Let the earth surface be torn apart with the dripping of my blood, in return I want only peace and happiness for all. Or else if you maintain a register as a record for the sins committed by people, then register all the sins of others, in my name. I am ready to suffer for others sins. May it be for millions of birth of mine, so that all can live in peace. Or give me such a power that every body can be relieved of all miseries by means of me. Let there be a unfading smile on every body’s face, like dew drops on the petals of flowers. O god ! I know that your decision is the final one. This creation of nature is the developed form of yourself only and the loopholes created in it during the series of its development can be cleared by you only. It is not within the capacity of any human being. Because O god ! you are the only original element of the creation which carries no cause. You are the nameless, shapeless, neither an existence nor a non-existence. You are neither visible nor invisible. You are neither mortal nor immortal, neither been decayed nor been undecided, neither an empty nor a full, neither inert nor conscious, neither a soul nor a prime soul. You are the ancient of all existing beings. Still you need a name for the purpose of understanding. So hence forth. I shall call you as God O God ! you are an omni present a non-entity a regular and an infinity one. This sky of infinity and the thousands of universes spread in it is your representation only. Every molecule of life is molecule of yours only which is existing in every inert or conscious material. The energy is the cause of a substance and you are the cause of the energy. O God ! the name of your soul is “Almighty” and the total creation is your body. In coarse word, the power of god is “Almighty”, from which the creation of nature has originated and took up the shape of a huge universe. As like the soul of human being which is existing in the total body of it, and the body is made due to it only and get activated by it only, the god also is a prime element which exist in the whole universe. Due to the god only the universe is created and is getting processed automatically by its nature.

NO girl can give birth to a child and remain virgin also. and if it happens by some miracle, what is great in remaining virgin even after giving birth to a child? losing virginity does not belittle any girl at all and remining virgin does not increase any positive qualities at all. then why this concept of JESUS taking birth of Virgin Mary?
