Christianity curses earthly pleasures - Islam blesses them?

Question

BIBLE :
1-"How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God." It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God!"
2- But this I say, brethren, the time is short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none 4:21
(there's no time for sex or marriage, time is short)

QURAN:
1-"Beautified for men is the love of things they desire: Women, Children, much of gold and silver (wealth), branded beautiful horses, cattle and well-tilled land. This is the pleasure of the present world's life, but Allaah has the excellent return (Paradise)"
(Surah Aali-Imraan 3:141)
2- Your women are a tilth for you (to cultivate) so go to your tilth as ye will .
(The Cow 2:223)

Silly Atheists and hateful-Christians, don't grow all defensive now. I'm not going in favour of any.
Just comparing both stances.

Answer 1

Christianity does not curse earthly pleasures. God wants us to enjoy our lives, as long as we keep our priorities straight.

Answer 2

Since both contradict each other, by logic, one must be wrong.
Since Jesus is considered a "prophet" lower than Mohammad, how is it that His body descended into heaven, while Mohammad is still worshipped in the grave?
Islam treats women as sex objects (as ye will). Sounds worthy to be a woman in this religion.

I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. NO ONE comes to the Father except through Me(Jesus) 1 John 14:6

Answer 3

Jesus grew up with Essene Judaism. Essene Jews come in two camps (those whom believe all earthly pleasures should be avoided, and those whom believe marriage is acceptable but divoce not so). Essene's live in communes where nobody owns anything for themselves, but as a group. Essene's lived monastic lives. Jesus joined the Nazarene cult (a branch of Essene Jews who believed in reaching out beyond the community). Essentially, Jesus was a caperble ascetic (whom spent 40days/nights without sensual gratification of any kind). This is one of the Nazarene initiation proceedures. Jesus' view on sexuality is not clear from the scriptures, as no account is made of his personal life. However, It maybe said that Jesus believed in controling the sences and not letting the senses control you.

The quran 1st quote seems to suggest that man should not desire for women, children and gold, but for things that will please God, so God might allow him to enter paradise.
Verse 2 is instructing men to guide women in religious principle, it is not an instruction to use them as sex toys. "Cultivate" is meant in the sense that one should (as a couple) partake in spiritual learning together. A gardener digs up weeds to prevents weeds from ruining a crop.

Answer 4

Hmm.. i think of just about each and every little thing is a blessing and a curse in a manner actual. the two components in my chart that stand out maximum to me precise now in spite of the undeniable fact that are Pluto sq. Mercury and Saturn conjunct Mars. Pluto sq. Mercury i think of can help me plenty with the stress to assemble insights into my very own and human beings's behaviours and suggestions. It provides some friction to my suggestions which makes me, i think of, particularly much less naive. It helps me variety better comments besides, helping me be fairly much less mutable. besides the undeniable fact that, i think of it may additionally make me overly paranoid and in elementary terms somewhat volatile now and returned. i think of it could make a contribution to extremely some the pessimism i think. nevertheless, i does no longer desire to do without it. Saturn conjunct Mars is an entire push and pull. it is not ordinary for me to locate a stability of whilst to end and whilst to pass, and such as you, i will finally end up in basic terms doing no longer something, which isn't what Mars OR Saturn desire. it is hard. yet I additionally am grateful for this factor in that it helps me be extra exacting, extra careful, and extra mature. It helps me shape my energies and energise my systems. ideally... sturdy question!

Answer 5

Unlikely. Remember, Islam forbids the intake of alcohol or drugs. And this specific passage from the Qu'ran seems to indicate an acknowledgement of these earthly pleasures, yet not an affirmation of them. Islam too, being a major monotheistic and Dualist religion, places the soul above the body and all its indulgences. Islam and Christianity, remember, are cut from the same cloth.

Answer 6

Obviously, you have never read the Song of Solomon. I could quote that and pick unfavorable suras from the Quran and come up with the exact opposite. Your reasoning is flawed.

Answer 7

It is a simple earthly pleasure to look upon the smiling faces of women and say, thank God for them. Yet you cover thoses faces with veils.

God does not mind that we have money. He does not want money to have us. Your believers would do well to spread more of their wealth to their fellows who have less.

Besides that, why draw me into a verbal contest of which is better Christianity or Islam? I will let my life speak for me.

Answer 8

Though I dislike Islam, think it needs reform, and take my shots at it, this simply isn't a fair comparison. What would happen if we chose wine or pork? We could pick and choose places where one forbids and the other allows, but it would just be nitpicking.

Answer 9

Any belief system that does not include a rightful place for all other belief systems is faulty.

Answer 10

OK that's 5879 for Islam and 5878 for the Christians so for the moment you have a precarious lead it the race for who has the best stuff
