Non-Muslims is it annoying to you when we copy and paste a bunch of verses of the Quran?

Question

Do you even read what people paste? I ask because even I find it annoying when you ask a simple question and people start pasting a bunch of stuff if you asked a yes or no question.,... no matter where you are quoting from long answers do not seem to read... am I correct in assuming this?

(Appologies to My Muslim brothers and sisters, but I too find this annoying)

Answer 1

extremly annoying and a little rude, too.

Answer 2

Islam in it's self is innocuous as are most religions. In the teachings of the Koran as professed is that Sharia is the law they adhere too, Sharia law is a 8th century remnant that goes against societal norms. The "fanatical islamo-fascists" bent on world destruction believe that through Jihad the Messiah will come. Well, that said, people are people, I think a person can believe what they wish as long as their belief does not inhibit my ability to believe what I choose.

Islam has three tenants for dealing with non-muslims, Convert to islam, tax and enslave, or kill. While the majority of muslims don't feel this doctrine is valid, the islamo-fascists that are soon to enplace Sharia in Europe with have countless infidels to deal with..

I would recommend some reading before you give islam a pass, read Robert Spencer's book "The Political Incorrect Guide to Islam" and also see if you can get a copy of the DVD "Obsession" which is a very good documentary of radical islam and a must see for anyone who questions why some muslims are creating a very dangerous situation for this planet.

I've known people of all faiths, from Jew, Muslim, Christian Buddhist, Hindu, Wiccan, and each one have the view that their religion is the "only" correct one and "if only" people would see what they see the world would be a better place..

Here is a link to a must read article that is a glimpse of the future regarding Islam. It is a must read.. it's long but well worth the time.

What baffles me is that the supposed "peaceful" muslims and their clerics don't condemn these radicals for fear of reprisal, guess what by denying a problem exists won't make it go away. Muslim radicals killed 3000+ people in NYC and DC on 9/11/01, in my opinion the was is not on Terror, we need to call it what it is, you can't fight an ideology, you need to fight an enemy, radicals are the enemy, the direction their clerics preach is a global sharia under a new Caliphate (muslim pope)..

Do a google on Sharia, you will find many of the same things as you'd find in the Old testament book of Leviticus, while these "laws" were fine and dandy 2000 years ago, the social implications are not valid today.

Answer 3

Yes. I've already read the Qu'ran, three different english interpretations of it. Rereading it isn't going to change my mind about the quality of content. In fact, if you quote anything at all, but provide no self-written interpretation, I'll ignore your answer/question entirely.

For example, let's say someone quotes Psalm 23 as their answer. As, in fact, their whole answer. It's garbage, of course. But if someone quotes it, then adds, "Now, as we can see, there is this part here which says such-and-such, and refering back to Jeremiah 2, we can see that this is that and that is this..." that's cool. It'd be far easier just to say, "Referencing Psalm 23 and Jeremiah 2, we can analyze this this way..." and then let me worry about looking up the two chapters mentioned.

Quoting is bad. Do it as little as possible, and it's less needed the more well known the source is (ie: Bible almost never needs to be quoted, just give passages). If you need to quote from another holy book, give a link to a site with it and give the reference.

Answer 4

Quotes from famous people do not annoy me, unless they are incomprehensible, or outright violent/forceful against my freedom, nevertheless peace be upon us all.

I've pasted my own selection of verses from the Koran (Quran?) on Yahoo Answers. Typically, non-Muslims (like myself) find them very clearly and strongly threatening, and for very good reason. The Quran and Islam seems to offer only division, separation, and violence against non-Muslims (without conversion) and against fellow Muslims (with "sin"). Yet I find myself continuing to read the verses that Muslims cite, perhaps because I desire to believe my leaders (USA) about Islam being a peaceful religion. My dying patience with such a violent/forceful religion makes me wonder when (probably sooner than later) I'll give up trying to vindicate Islam from the terrorism which so many Muslims embrace and so few openly and strongly condemn, and from the harsh punishments enforced upon "sinners" and against the offenses upon the freedoms of "believers."

So, I read them these days, but perhaps in a few months, I may not have patience for any of it. That's my honest opinion and feelings, and I have a feeling that a great many other people feel similarly (especially Americans).

Answer 5

I sometimes will use a Bible verse or two, simply to provide proof of my answer. I do realize that most people have a short attention span so I try to limit the length of material I paste, because I know a lot of people just skim over it and pay little or no attention to it. I’ve considered omitting the verses once or twice, but if I did, there’s invariably someone who requests or demands proof of why I believe this way. I think it’s best to keep it short and use only as much extra material as necessary. Long-winded posts are essentially a waste of everyone’s time.

Answer 6

Yes that is annoying.

Also more annoying and offensive is being called a nonbeliever. Who the hell gave any muslim the right to call me a nonbeliever. I am a believer and everyone on this planet is a believer. They may not believe in the koran but I am certain they believe in something. So when you want to say that someone is not a believer in islam or the koran then be specific and clear.

This comments goes out to the NonHumanist specificly muslims.

Answer 7

Of course you have the freedom to post whatever you choose but generally most people don't like it. Asking a question about people's religion is one thing, but quoting the Quran, or the Bible, or the Torah is seen as preaching.
There are more appropriate forums for questions of that sort. Just remember there are MANY different people with MANY different beliefs on here.

Answer 8

Just to be fair, it is usually annoying when ANYONE does a cut n paste. No one reads anything too long so it is futile to do so. I will read one or two verses, but when I have to scroll though 3 or 4 screens of any book it is getting thumbed down just to get it out of my way.

Answer 9

it doesn't bother me. Though I'm not Muslim, I am American, and we as American citizens are guaranteed the freedom of religion. As for long answers, some people are a bit more "zealous" than other when presenting an argument/defense with which to answer a question with. I try not to be long-winded myself, but if I need to be for the sake of reference, I will be. But I also try to be respectful in such answers, for I do not wish to offend anyone. I merely want to state my opinion.

Answer 10

Yes, but it has utterly nothing to do with the Koran (Quran). This forum is not for presenting such things. Small quotes for the purpose of questions and the exchange of ideas is great, but I don't want to spend ten minutes reading a question...

Answer 11

yes, I agree. I do not always read the lengthy ones either and I am muslim. But I do give them a thumbs up for trying.
bible:
matthew 6:7 "they think they will be heard for their much speaking"
Qur'an :
The Cow 2:6 "makes no difference if you warn or do not warn, they will not believe"

but I guess all you wanted here was a simple 'yes', correct?
