    Islamic sufism - is it a realistic path for everyday life?

    If they don't recognize the prophet or God of Islam, it's not really Sufism, Sufism is an esoteric understanding of Islam. They may be syncretic, but there exist no such thing as secular Sufism or atheist Muslim.

    World War Islam?

    Yes, we don't need America's idiotic drones that will only last for a few years before history repeats itself. We need US to take over and clean the dirtholes.

    I saw a very good Charles Darwin movie yesterday!

    None of those, I'm sure it's homemade. I just wanted to share its themes and how more movies should be made like this. Next time on perhaps other figures, but what figures would those be?

    Jihadists must die, --- but our real enemies are the Qur’an and Bible.

    Do we need to get rid of Dao De Jing? An extreme, radical interpretation of it make it seems like it says world have no rules and that you are your own law, therefore if you want to kill a man without getting punished, you can do it and no one should stop you, if you want to get out of a court...

    I saw a very good Charles Darwin movie yesterday!

    This was a very good movie, it was not based on his discoveries and science, but about his religion. It was a dramatic coming-of-age film on how Charles Darwin evolved from a pious orthodox religious man of faith into gradually doubting theism and his own scriptures and the psychological...

    Do you think Moses existed as a historical figure?

    Yes, I know that. He confused the two, I don't believe the Hebrews were ever slaves, though. I more or less agree, but I would say mythology is a wrong term for this, I would personally use the term legend, and this was most likely due to oral transmission, humans used to rely on this way back...

    Do you think Moses existed as a historical figure?

    I did not say any of those were supposed to be proving Moses' historicity, if you think that's my intention, you misunderstood my point. In context, I was merely pointing out historians whom are accepting his basic historical core, even if acknowledging minimal evidence for much of the biblical...

    Proved: Prophet Muhammad S.A.W. is mentioned in the Bible

    Hadith are not divinely inspired. Hadith is a gospel, the Gospels of Muhammad. They are eye-witness accounts from Muhammad's contemporaries describing what they've seen Muhammad say or do. Just like the Gospels of Jesus, there exist apocryphal work and authentic ones, except the Islamic system...

    Proved: Prophet Muhammad S.A.W. is mentioned in the Bible

    You shouldn't use the word "proved" here. There exist quite a few other prophets claiming to descent from Jesus prophetic cycle, such as Joseph Smith, Mani, Baha'u'llah and many others. Any follower of these religions would say the verses predict their prophets. Also, I don't think you know...

    Status of a translated Quran

    No. Yes - translations are not sacred, but you must treat it like a book and not rip it apart or give you right to do what would be considered for blasphemy if you did it to the Arabic Quran , since that indicates that what you really want to do if you had the chance - but that's most a recent...

    Do you think Moses existed as a historical figure?

    @outhouse, I have you on ignore - which is why I didn't read your posts earlier. Keep this in mind and I suggest you to not reply more and expect a reaction in my future threads. David Rohl, William G. Dever, William F. Albright, among others, are some Egyptologists, scholars or archeologist...

    Do you believe the Sun circulate around Earth?

    Do you think Moses existed as a historical figure?

    There was a similar consensus about the Trojan War, where in the 19th century people considered the events recorded as pure fiction until recently where historians have found a basic historical core for the story, supporting the view that there was a war at that time and place, the later...

    Is it permitted to eat elephant meat in Islam?

    I don't think it's possible to slaughter an elephant, how many men are needed for such a task to keep an elephant down?

    Why be muslim?

    *My point was a stereotypical Muslim as most anti-Muslims have in mind. I know some in real life, too. I'm not denying the majority of Middle Eastern/African Muslims are backward, however, I've never met some sensible Muslim agreeing on this. I did ask this question on a Muslim forum once -...

    Why be muslim?

    They disagree on minor things within creeds, which is normal. But none are disagreeing on that Islam is not intolerant or violent, just different ways to view certain definitions of words and such on certain subjects. I've never met a Muslim on these forums arguing Islam is violent and...
