In your first Torah quote, God forbits to add man made laws. Where does He say that He wont change his own laws, that he wont send a messenger with different laws, or that the Torah will be the true law for the whole mankind until eternity?
I heard that pork is the worst meat, when you dont have refrigerators. Isnt it? Seems plausible to ban it in arabia.
Humans are not the only ones that eat meat. God could have made pigs for the wolfs and lions.
Also I think that the comforter thing is not so clear but a matter of believe. If you say that the Holy Ghost is a member of a triune God, it is less likely that it refers to Muhammad. But if we say that the Holy Ghost came to Muhammad or that "Holy Ghost" refers to a holy person or an angel...
What about that?
Deut 33:2
And he said, The LORD came from Sinai (Moses), and rose up from Seir unto them (Jesus); he shined forth from mount Paran (Muhammad), and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand went a fiery law for them.
In arabic traditions mount Paran is near...
Sry, I thought it was clear, that I meant the claims of atheism. Usually, when people talk about a religion being true, they have the claims of that religion in mind. Atheists who claim, that there is no God, have the burden of proof. That applies to anyone, who claims something, that is not proven.
Atheism & Theism are both unproven.
Therefore, whenever someone claims, that Atheism or Theism is true, he has the burden of proof. The only ones without burden of proof would be agnostics.
I dont understand the old testament very well, but I like the NT. I voted Quran, because I understand it better, and I love the recitations. I also recommend to everyone, two that are not in this list:

A religion can only be true for an individual. True religion is inside you, and sice you are different than I, your true religion will be different than my true religion.
Science and religion are two different things. The Bible is not a "false science book". It is a spiritual book, that has nothings to do with science. When the Bible tells you, that there was no evolution, then probably you understand it wrong. Adam and Eve or creation are spiritual stories, that...
I know these kind of people. I think that muslims have a strong that sees pork as something unclean/disgusting. Taste is something, you have to learn. The fathers of western muslims, who don't eat pork lived in muslim countries, where there simply is none. So generation after generation did not...
Salam alaikum :)
Yes because christians have gone astray. The Bible is a true book, and it does not say, that Jesus is YHWH incarnate. Jesus is the image of the invisible God. That is the meaning of divinity, that I apply to Jesus (&Baha'u'llah).
Abdul Baha:
"This book is the Holy Book of...
He is all powerful, but chose to create free will.
Again, free will. If humans want to preach falsly, they may do it.
I am telling, that whenever you follow something which is good, you are following God. Even if a Satan gives you that good advice.
Too often Atheism/Greed/Materialism/Socialism/Communism/Absolutism/Science has been an aphrodisiac for horror, a Benzedrine for bestiality. At its best
it has lifted spirits and raised spires.
At its worst it has turned entire civilizations into cemeteries. - raph
That's what I say
Hm, I know...
The problem is with humanity, not religion. You can in no way tell, wether humanity would be better off without religion. How is atheism supporting ethical judgement? Why did some atheistic societies end up worse, than religious ones have ever been?
God wants us to have free will. He wants us...
Hi, from what I understand of the Bible, there was never a dispute between Paul and the other apostels about Jesus divinity. The only thing that they may have argued about was the law.
Isnt Jesus called spirit of God and Word of God in the Quran? Is God's Spirit not devine?
Regards
If God were against homosexuality He woul have created it as a test. Most people have sinful urges, this is not exclusive for homosexuals. Some people enjoy murder, this urge is a test fur them.
But I think that since gays arent harming anyone, the religious leaders should respect their life...
The translations differ very much in these verses. Many of the bibels tell me, that Jesus was not left in hell. The others tell me, that Jesus was never in hell.
New International Version
because you will not abandon me to the realm of the dead, you will not let your holy one see decay.

I heared a near death experience of a guy, who said, he was in hell for eternity. Then he was saved by a light, went to heaven and woke up again in the real world. He was an atheist, and then became a spritual guy without religion. But near death experience hell is not much about religion, there...
This passage is about Paul telling the jews, that he will preach the gospel to the gentiles. I don't know, whom he is calling "false brethren", it could be anyone. At the end of Gal 2, everybody agrees (even Peter) that Paul will preach to the gentiles, and the jewish apostels will preach to the...
