Answer 1

awe the links dont work! =(
but just because some toy company makes a Jesus toy... it doesn't really represent the whole faith

Answer 2

This article is a gross generalization of christians, and the author lacks critical thinking skills. I do not stereotype the entire muslim religion as suicide bombing, world trade center destroying terrorists; but that would be using the same logic as this author. Just because some people do something, does not mean they all do. Generalizations like this show the ignorance of the author. I hope the people who read these questions will exhibit more common sense and critical thinking then the author of that article.

Answer 3

Know about Zaatari....who wrote about Christians..."The Bible isn’t corrupted as Mr. Zaatari wants us to believe, nor does the Quran state which verses, books or practices are corrupted in the Bible. Zaatari has basically quoted a number of random Quranic verses and interpreted them according to his own unsound exegesis. Since Zaatari wants to argue that the original Torah, Gospel and Psalms taught something different compared to the texts currently available then he must provide the documentary evidence supporting this, and not just state it. Even the Quran claims that one must present proof for something if they are to be considered truthful:
Is not He (best) Who produceth creation, then reproduceth it, and Who provideth for you from the heaven and the earth? Is there any God beside Allah? Say: BRING YOUR PROOF, IF YE ARE TRUTHFUL! S. 27:64
In dealing with the issue of whether another god exists besides Allah, the Quran challenges to present all the proof supporting such a claim if they are truthful. Since God’s Word is directly related to him, if Zaatari believes that another version of the Bible existed then he must present his proof. Remember it is Zaatari making the claim about the Bible being corrupted and hence he needs to present evidence outside of what the Quran says as well as prove to us that the original books said something different...."..he is a b*** S*****

Answer 4

Just because a company did something wrong, does not mean that all christians are so. Christians have deep respect for God and Jesus Christ, I'm sure that Toy raised the anger of conservative Christians as well as Muslims.

Answer 5

Answer to the question: Yes. Many, if not most, have done so.

There is no shame of committing sin, no fear, no humility... and not even repentance. Doesn't the Commandments clearly state not to make images and idols of God? It's bad enough to paint a picture of Jesus (whom Christians believe to be god), but they go far enough to make statues/figures of him.

This is how polytheism started in the early days.

Answer 6

That should be "with which they amuse themselves".

And no, some take it very very seriously... but I think some use it as a tool, a toy or like it's got an on/off switch.

Answer 7

It wouldn't suprise me if this blasphemy was something invented by a Muslim.

God is no toy. He is the creator of Heaven and Earth, and all that is in them. He deserves reverence and worship, and that is exactly what should be done.

And I can think of no "good point" a Muslim could make.

Answer 8

I think the reason they made that toy is so that kids will hear versus from jesus. I have kids and i want them to have jesus in there life, and my baby has a prayer doll. To each his own. and besides the type of toys they have today are sinful in my eyes. like Bratz, i dont want my daughter to dress like them and be like them.

Answer 9

I skimmed it. Christians are whacky, and Muslims are self righteous conversion machines.

Answer 10

They've just invented their own God(s), same as millions of others throughout history.
