    Thoughts on Zoroastrianism

    Those are a lot of questions with very long answers. XD I will try to keep my answers as short as I can! Before I can answer your questions, however, there are some things you need to know first. Though similar to Abrahamic religions, Zoroastrianism actually shares roots with Hinduism. Keep in...

    There are no mistakes in Quran

    Some interesting points. Perhaps you'd like to take them to the thread I created specifically for the verses in question so we can dig into them more deeply there? =)

    Questions regarding Surah At-Tariq verse 4-6

    Oh! Thanks. =) So according to that dictionary, "ribs" more specifically means: "Breastbones; four ribs of the right side of the chest and four of the left thereof; uppermost parts of the human breast beneath the chin." However, the other word (the word in question) CAN mean either: "The...

    Questions regarding Surah At-Tariq verse 4-6

    The point of this thread is to gain deeper understanding in verses 4-6 of the 86th Surah (At-Tariq). There are some controversies on this forum surrounding these verses, so I'd like to go over them thoroughly. =) Here are two different translations that give vastly different explanations...

    There are no mistakes in Quran

    ?... I don't know where you came up with the idea that I'm "just fishing on the internet shallowly expecting only to slander by simply repeating what someone said like a parrot." What I am fishing for is understanding, which is why I was asking you your thoughts. Perhaps you are right in...

    Seeking Truth and Seeking Certainty

    Hmmm... The problem is that we are limited beings, and the best we can hope for is accuracy in our own perceptions and understandings of reality. We will only ever experience reality through the lens of sight, touch, sound, taste, smell, or knowledge, and all of these things are fallible and...

    There are no mistakes in Quran

    It seems you are arguing semantics over something very straight forward... =/ Maybe you'd like to come back to my post earlier and explain things from your point of view? If what is described in the Quran isn't semen, then I'd like for you to tell me your thoughts. =)

    Ahmadiyya Muslims and Baha'i similarities...

    Plus they both have their roots in Islam (one in Shiite, and one in Sunni).

    There are no mistakes in Quran

    Actually, this is something I would like some clarification on as well. This is what the Quran states according to the translation used on http://quran.com/86/5-7 So let man observe from what he was created. He was created from a fluid, ejected, Emerging from between the backbone and the...

    There are no mistakes in Quran

    Actually, according to the verse, it says: Emerging from between the backbone and the ribs. http://quran.com/86/5-7 This always confused me, since the ejaculatory duct is down in the pelvis, below the bladder. =/

    Oh no, but thanks! That's exactly what I was looking for. =)

    Muslim family kicked off United Airlines flight for ‘how they looked’

    Idiotic... Just curious, but how many terrorist attacks have erupted while the terrorists had their kids with them? =/

    Seeking Truth and Seeking Certainty

    What we know as truth changes over time as we grow in knowledge, and as we grow on an individual basis; certainty hinders that growth.

    It's Corthos's Birthday!

    Oh my god... After seeing Parvati, Shiva, and baby Ganesh tearing up the road on a Motorcycle, I can die a happy man. On a side note, is sacrilege a concept in Hinduism? If someone dressed as Jesus rode a bike down mainstreet, it might offend more fundamental Christians. XD

    It's Corthos's Birthday!

    Why can't I stop imagining a Hindu god with a sweet pair of sun glasses and a pink blazer cruising in a Ferrari down the freeway while listening to Van Halen? ;)
