How can some of us be so selfish to think that out of all the galaxies out there, we are the only ones here in this universe?

This is not an attack on religion and I do not want any abuse towards any belief systems here. No mockery, no evangelism, none of that.

I answered a question recently where someone didn't understand the fundamentals of classical physics, but were asking a question that required a quantum physics answer. When I answered them, they dismissed my answer as wrong. If someone doesn't even understand the fundamentals of classical physics they have no hope understanding the physics of very-small or very-large, and yet this person was arguing that I was wrong despite my physics training.

It seemed that they wanted to use the first law of thermodynamics to prove that something on the quantum scale was impossible (ergo proving God's existence). When I tried to explain to them the answer, they weren't prepared to listen.

How many people here actually have some training in physics and are hence qualified to answer questions about the creation of energy?

I know that feet are considered unclean, I just don't want to get something permanent on my body that might not be acceptable.

I think so. That Ark of the Covenant was a totally aweome weapon. Moses would absolutely destroy Mohammed.

Too bad we don't still have it today to use against radical Muslims.

You know the kind I mean.They consider pretty much everything a sin.Women in the military and workforce, condoms and sex education, certain studies of science, stem cell research and medical break throughs that come from stem cell research, planned parenthood and a woman's right to choose, homosexuality, and any religion that is not their own including to have no religion at all.
To their credit, much of their religion does, in a very obscure way, mention some of these "sins".
But these, for a lack of better words, fundamentalist extremists have become hell bent on not only addressing these issues from their beliefs but making their charge that America as a whole must adhere to their beliefs and interpretations.They walk on the Constitution and the right to freedom of religion.When they hear "freedom of religion" they assume it means freedom for just theirs to be the only one that deserves respect and administer authority on all Americans.Are they going to far?Is a Theocracy coming

Do you believe Aliens are just demons in disguise? I do. I believe they are fallen angels like the bible speaks of and they are using their temporary pwer to deceive the human race.

In hadith volume 5, book 58, number 236 it is noted that Muhammad's 2nd wife was only 6 years old. He was a gentleman, in that, he waited until YOUNG Aisha was 9 until he consumed the marriage.

My question is this:

How can you follow a religion where the leader is a known child malester?

How can you follow a religion and follow the prophecies of a "prophet" who claimed that he thought he was possessed by the devil?

How accurate can his revelations be, is Muhammed took liberty to change what Allah revealed to him?

On the other hand:
Jesus Christ or Isa was never married.

Isa never had sex with kids

Isa claimed to be God, never questioned his position.

Isa performed many miracles to prove his Godhead

Isa fullfilled over 300 old testament prophecies concerning the Messiah.

This allah says that the Jews and the Christians were his people. That he saved the Jews from the exodus etc etc. That he sent Jesus to teach them etc etc.

NOW...why did this allah tell muslims to KILL JEWS AND CHRISTIANS?


Qur’an 5:51 “Believers, take not Jews and Christians for your friends.”
Bukhari [4:52:177]: Allah's Apostle said, "The Hour will not be established until you fight with the Jews, and the stone behind which a Jew will be hiding will say. "O Muslim! There is a Jew hiding behind me, so kill him!"


DO YOU EVER TELL YOUR NEIGHBORS TO KILL YOUR FAMILY? Never right? Now, who in the world would do such an evil thing???

I think some people don't know why religion can be harmful in any way. If we could explain it to all, wouldn't that be easy.....or are some people not listening to reason?

When you compare what men have said in different hadiths, you will find a number of contradictions.

For example, Bukhari (4/60.62) wrote that
“the prophet (pbuh) urinated in standing position.”
But Ibn Hambal (6.192) wrote that
“the prophet (pbuh) never urinated in standing position.”

Now these are supposed to be authentic (genuine) hadiths. There is no way you can believe both of those statements. Their statements show how accurate they are. On top of all that, what difference does it make how the prophet urinated!

According to reliable Islamic sources, Muhammad never stood while urinating except in one case when the place which he was at was too dirty to squat. That was probably the only exception. At all other times, Muhammad squatted. We have to assume he squatted because there are no toilet bowls during the time of Muhammad. Unless…perhaps some muslim can prove otherwise.

Why did allah allow muhammad’s adopted son to marry and consummate his wife and then later tell him to divorce the wife and let Muhammad marry her instead? Allah has no foresight?

Muhammad admitted that he had spoken for Satan to the quayrish tribe, but later says allah had forgiven him. If allah can forgive someone who can even speak for satan, why can’t allah forgive those whom the muslims claim have corrupted the scripture, but instead says the muslims must destroy them?

Why do muslims agree that the prophet Moses was instructed by God, who brought the Jews into Canaan/Israel, but almost all refuse to acknowledge Israel as a nation today?

Why are martyrs who die in islam offered sex with 72 sexy maidens but female muslims are not given any? Authoritative Islamic hadeeths teach that there are more males than women in Islamic ‘heaven’.

So, who are these martyrs actually having sex with? And if these are virgins what happens after the 1st round of mating? They are dumped after use?

Following Jesus casting demons out of some men, the demons went into the pigs and ran off the cliff.

"Then the whole town went out to meet Jesus. And when they saw him, they pleaded with him to leave their region"

Isn't that strange? They wanted Jesus to leave. They must have been more concerned about the pigs than the demon-possessed men. Also I wondered why there would be some pigs there since the Jews didn't eat pigs did they? Were they for the Roman soldiers then?

Jesus did not speak English or hebrew, but he spoke Aramaic, the original language of Jesus. find out the God that Jesus worshiped. type down the word God in that Aramaic dictionary.
http://www.peshitta.org/lexicon/

and if u insist that Jesus did not speak Aramaic, then here is an evidence that he actually did:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aramaic_language

brother and sisters, why being stubborn to believe in Allah the most generous to you, who created you and created Jesus Son of Mary from a word of God and supported him with the holyspirit for a sign to the children of Israel that he is their Massiah?

"Reality" Well someone can say the same about any religion
"Evidence" People have the same for their religions or else they wouldn't believe it
"Don't have to waste time going to church" What if we like going to church? What if it makes us happier and gives us comfort?

All the talk about Atheism being better because it is "reality" is just as valid (or not as valid) as any religion that claims to be reality.... Thus Atheism makes the same claims about being the one and only truth, that all other people are ignorant, and so on that every religion does.

Best Answer goes to whoever either refutes my argument or insults me the worst or sucks-up the best.
