The funny thing is apparently the whole reason Abdullah was penalized is because he did a slide and then prostrated. It wasn't because he was praying, or so I've heard, it was the slide that was too celebratory.
Wish I could help now but I cannot. I start working soon though and I can assure you part of my first paycheck will be going to your PayPal, though don't expect much I get paid two dollars above minimum wage.
I actually went into a period where I looked into Islam. It was more a curiosity to me than a viable religious path; however to immerse myself in my studies I tried living Muslim for a few days and it made me really appreciate the religion. There's a lot of discipline but there's also a lot of...
I heard this story from a minister at the Toronto Konko Church and it has since stuck with me. It goes like this:
In Shinto there is something called the 'Kagami' which is a mirror. It's considered sacred by many and an important object in worship. The word Kagami is made up of three...

It's nothing with my heart, I've been to multiple cardiologists.
Posture could be the problem, I mostly sit in seiza just because I find that most natural. I figured it was mainly because of allergies but was genuinely curious if anybody else had similar experiences.
Thank you for the...
Recently I've been kind of under the weather (nothing too bad, kind of just allergies) and I've noticed that every time I pray I'm very short of breath? Which is weird because I usually pray silently or under my breath but I feel very fatigued at times, sometimes its so bad I have to pause or...

I'm familiar with their mission but not familiar enough with their 'work' (if they've done any) to really make a comment. If you've heard of them doing anything harmful, like a specific event, link me to an article about it and I'll read it.
That's entirely based upon your definition of fanaticism, which is quite broad.
It's not fair to make a claim for one of the biggest religious groups in the world based upon your subjective experiences with the community. I think that's what you're failing to realize.
This was a good one. I really need to simplify my life, too much stuff and clutter. I think this will help me mentally, physically, and even spiritually.
Thank you for sharing :)
Your past doesn't really interest me, I mean that in the most kind way possible but it's irrelevant to the topic at hand. I am saying what I'm saying based off of the claims in this thread a lone.
I'm aware, I was using all caps to make sure you could see what I was referring to, like highlighting in a way. Or putting emphasis on those words.
I would assume so. I can't speak for all Muslims considering I'm not a Muslim myself though. Ask a Muslim that question, they'll be better for a...
That's not what I said at all, stop misappropriating the things I say :facepalm:
I said you cannot prove the CLAIMS you are making about ALL MUSLIMS, not the claims about the prophets.
I've never met a member of the YEC so I can't actually comment on that.
I agree evolution should be taught in schools. However, I don't believe that is in the slightest what we were arguing over. Evolution hardly has anything to do with one's literacy, the subject of this thread.
