What religion makes the most sense to you, and why?

Started by Turbo-Cajun7 pages

What part about that makes the most sense to you? And I am curious, I guess I dont know a whole lot about it. I dated a girl that was a Wiccan for a while... it seemed kinda weird to me a while ago, but that was a while ago. What do you guys believe?

I think I am agnostic. I wanna believe that there is something more after death like heaven but I'm just too skeptic. I want to look forward to something after death so I just believe that there is superior forces out there so im just looking forward to finding out about what it is after I die. I hope it has something to do with aliens. I don't know. I'm weird.

I don't believe you guys...What is wrong with you?

There can be only one -ism and that is Rastafarianism! 😮‍💨

One a more serious note, to quote the immortal Bill Hicks "I am an evolved, rational human being": I believe in myself...I believe I have the wisdom to know what is right and what is wrong, the courage to choose right, and the strength to carry out my decisions.

I am NOT saying there is no God. Nor am I saying there is. I am merely arguing, as I think someone said previously, more or less, that we should stop depending on others or hiding behind them or hoping that others will solve our problems, and start taking responsibilty for our own lives and our actions.

I agree entirely on both the part about rastafarianism, and the other stuff. I know what your saying man.

taoism for me. i like the idea of opposite forces in the world working together to balance everything out

Islam. It is the only one that agrees with science. non Muslim historians agree that it is the most unchanged book in the world. It treats women as equals, even though the media doesn't show this. In the Quran it talks about how a baby is formed in the womb, how the earth is shaped, how mountains hav underying pegs, how the universe is expanding, it also has information about black holes etc. and v. early copies of the Quran r identical to the ones we have 2day...so not one word has been changed

n it contains all this scientific knowledge that people only found out about a few decades ago...e.g. the universe is expanding, the description of how a baby is formed indetail all proved to b correct by former non Muslim scientists hu hav decided to revert to Islam

It treats women as equals, even though the media doesn't show this.
guess a lot of muslims seem to miss showing it too . Cause they surly missed that part about women being equal

Christianty

Its called Interpretation, Finti, and fanaticism.

Most sense.....Buddism.

I know its not really a religion, but I think its philosophies are pretty good.

You never know everything, you can always learn, ect.

the unequal treatment of da women is due to the culture not da religion

Christianity, because it is the religion I believe in.

Did you know that till the mid twentieth century there was another version of the Quran in Africa? Anyway, to wrong scientific info

No one: There's the popular verses that talk of sperm being made into blood clot, then the blood clot being turned to bone, and the bones being clothed with flesh Koran 23:13-14. It claims that bones are formed and coved with flesh. However, any scientist who studies embryology would know that the flesh forms first, then the bones.

Next, how a baby is formed in the womb. They claim that the sperm is formed between the backbone and the ribs Koran 86:6-7. That would be the location of the Kidneys. Any nine years old who listened in class would know that sperm comes from the Testis (the family jewels). If a supreme being wrote it, surely such contradictions wouldn't be there?

Unless of course the fact that it's forth hand (From God to the angel😇, from the angel to Muhhamed, from M to his followers, then to Uthram) Ruined it. There is no reason to suppose that mistakes weren't made during this time, as Allah was impotent to stop the Injeel being corrupted, or the Torah.

Have you noticed that Allah said to the clouds "come willingly or unwillingly" and they said "we come willingly" Koran 41:11? Where is the brain between the pair of hydrogen atoms, and the single oxygen atom? Where is the mouth? Where is the telepathic receptor?

Equally goofy is the descriptions of the Sun. For instance, a man sees the setting place of the sun, setting in a pool of dirty water Koran 18:85-86. The Hadiths say that after the sun sets it prostrates itself under the throne of Allah before being allowed to rise again Sahih Bukhari Volume 4, Book 54, Number 421. The sun does not disappear; it does not need to ask permission to "rise", as it is always shinning on part of the earth. The average six year old knows more than they did. I'd say that was of Human origin.

When reading about animals one just finds it amusing. There is a man who can hear the speech of ants Koran 27:18-19 which is impossible as they communicate with chemical odour, not sound. When a snake enters your home, you must give it a verbal warning. If it enters a second time after your warning, you kill it. While it's whimsical enough to assume an animal will understand you, it is just silly to do it to a creature that cannot hear e.g. snakes. Sahih Bulhari Volume 5, Book 58, Number 18 says that monkeys stone another monkey because she committed adultery. How does one define adultery in the monkey world?

Finally, the reason why I dislike Muhammad (the author) so much.

I believe it's wrong that Muhammad married Aisha when she was six, and consummated that marriage at nine Sahih Bukhari Volume 7, Book 62, Number 8. Muslims would defend him by saying that it was normal at that time. Whilst this is true, and once a girl starts her menstrual cycle (nine-ten) she was wrongly considered a woman in ancient times, this is not the behaviour one should attribute to a prophet of God.

Secular west knows that a girl is far to young to have sex at nine. One wonders why Allah didn't realise this, having created humans. If he was alive today, civilised countries would imprison him for life, or have him executed. Such hadiths as the one where she cleans up his semen Sahih Bukhari Volume 1, Book 4, Number 229-233 if written about a man in the modern day, would result in the authorities detaining him and would be used to secure a conviction.

They may have mis translated the Quran, but they can't change the actual Arabic which means that the Quran does not change...unlike the Bible which has sooo many different versions, which nobody denies, but the Quran has remained the way it was sent down.

R u sum kind of scientist or sumthing....because the information in the Quran is approved by modern day scientists that's why sooo many of them have reverted to Islam

The Injeel n Torah were corrupted because there was a new book sent down to the last prophet...and it was a test to see if the believers of the Quran and Injeel wud believe in the new book....all around the world every Quran is the same....it is memorised all the time, so it stands free from corruption...i don't know where u got ur scientific information from but you should actually read the Quran, instead of some anti-Islam biased website

ABOUT THE EMBRIOLOGY IN THE Al' Quran:

Prof. Marshall Johnson is one of the leading scientists in US, and is the head of the Department of Anatomy and Director of the Daniel Institute at the Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia in US.

He was asked to comment on the verses of the QUR'AN dealing with embryology. He said that the verses of the QUR'AN describing the embryological stages cannot be a coincidence. He said it was probable that MUHAMMAD---sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam--- had a powerful microscope. On being reminded that the QUR'AN was revealed 1400 years ago, and microscopes were invented centuries after the time of PROPHET MUHAMMAD---sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam---, Prof. Johnson laughed and admitted that the first microscope invented could not magnify more than 10 times and could not show a clear picture. Later he said: "I see nothing here in conflict with the concept that Divine intervention was involved when MUHAMMAD---sal Allahu alayhi wa sallam--- recited the QUR'AN."
