    I am not Christian!

    Prophet Muhammad did not marry a child

    At this point - you are like a broken record. It is digital age. Post something new - something of substance!

    The “naturalist” Problem of Suffering

    It only remains in the heads of people who don't know how to think beyond the box. Some people put themselves in a box and just don't know how to get out of it. They think with one-track mind and just don't know how to reason via critical thinking! Why not? :rolleyes: I solved it! Do I get a...

    The “naturalist” Problem of Suffering

    Wrong premise again! Btw, did you say "evil" behavior? I hear irony meter beeping!

    The “naturalist” Problem of Suffering

    In the context of the thread - maybe - BUT not in my scenario! In my scenario - there is a reason God is choosing not to intervene. When there is a valid reason - your context, your claim and your demand are all nullified! Like I said earlier - God's kingdom is like an ocean and if he has a...

    The “naturalist” Problem of Suffering

    So, are you saying atheists don't accept anything unevidenced? Really? Atheists don't accept any "word of mouth" evidence from anyone? In an atheist's court - will a rapist walk free even if five witnesses testify they saw him rape? :eek: It seems you are implying - due to lack of evidence...

    The “naturalist” Problem of Suffering

    It is not nice when one doesn't see their error even when it is lit up in front of their face like a christmas tree! (Just an analogy!) What does "omni" got to do with anything? :rolleyes: If God's kingdom is like an ocean - he can choose not to be "omnipresent" in a space equivalent to one...

    The “naturalist” Problem of Suffering

    When you start from a wrong premise you will end up with a wrong conclusion! Short answer is "pop quiz". What is so immoral about it? You could be tested anyway a creator chooses! For your sake - it is better to concentrate on passing the test. IMO

    The “naturalist” Problem of Suffering

    Of course if you think you were born sinless then nothing will make sense. I don't believe anybody is born sinless. I am not talking about Adam and Eve eating fruit! I believe we all did something and that is why we are sent in our physical form and not in our soul form. By the way, I believe...

    The “naturalist” Problem of Suffering

    On a serious note - I don't think Atheists have any problem explaining "suffering" and living with "suffering". Suffering is explainable via natural selection. IMO. Yes! it is explainable to a certain degree. But why only one intelligent species (humans) came into the equation is a mystery! That...

    The “naturalist” Problem of Suffering

    With this line of thinking - a better question (IMO) would be - Why natural selection created Human who is destroying the environment? Obviously that was counter productive as far as rest of the species are concerned! Why make some ape so smart that they started imaging and anticipating more...

    If Jesus Died...

    Actually those who believe in the divinity of Jesus belong in the "house of Constantine". IMO. They deviated from the actual teachings of Jesus! IMO Wishful thinking! There is no such thing as an alternate fact! Bible clearly indicates Jesus wasn't a God. Jesus denied being God himself. No...

    Prophet Muhammad did not marry a child

    Read some of your own posts! You are so passionately pointing out the authenticity of these Ahadith that it seems like you believe in these Ahadith more than any Islamic scholars ever believed! :tearsofjoy: Most Muslims don't think about Ahadith the way you do. They think of it as spare...

    Prophet Muhammad did not marry a child

    If you are indorsing it then it is your conclusion as well! ;) By the way - it is your opinion that majority of Muslims accept all Ahadith. My experience totally differs from yours. Quran represents Islam. Not the practitioners! Learn to separate the two! Believe the practitioners, if you...

    Prophet Muhammad did not marry a child

    When looking into a religion - it is better for you to consult its primary doctrine alone. Do not look at its practitioners as practitioners' opinions are not decisive and conclusive regarding any matter. You (IMO) are a true believer of these clerics and your so-called authoritative scholars...

    How can your belief be falsified?

    So, you discard beliefs if the evidence demands it! You already know the answer! Evidence! Why not? Lack of evidence? Same way you do! Now - had you asked - why I hold my belief without a way to show you evidence to support it? My answer would be with a question... Why do you prefer a...

    Prophet Muhammad did not marry a child

    Obviously this is rubbish. Just use your head once a while! Who collected this? When did he collect? Where does the chain show it came from? Who collected this? Answer: Bukhari and Muslim. When did they collect? Answer: More than 200 years after...

    Prophet Muhammad did not marry a child

    Everything is questionable until they pass the reliability test against Quran! Established by whom? It completely contradicts with Quran! Even in one of my last post I told you - that Quran also gave indication what the marriage age should be. At marriage time a person should be of sound...

    What a lot of people believe vs the truth - What's important to you?

    Specifically which generalization are you talking about? You are generalizing until you specify!;)

    What a lot of people believe vs the truth - What's important to you?

    Yes! and No! I have made careful consideration on some. Then there are things I connected dots and decided with something that makes sense to me (hence the use of IMO). I also incorporated some from my personal NDE experience (years ago) but I am not going to get into that. I am very well aware...
