To each their own. I definitely felt lack of understanding in many areas of faith when I was younger, so I tore into them-- asked questions, read about other religions, read books by atheists (and also atheists turned Christ followers). I guess my point is that many times (myself included) there's a pride or fear issue when we reach a conclusion without doing open-minded investigation. Only then could I determine what I really believe is true (some based in my gut, some based in my experiences, and some based in sheer logic). It was a humbling process, but worth it.
Haha! You got humbeled. OK miss humblebee. Give me all your honey! I dont mean it bad. I am just joking because I miss you so much!:blush:

woohoo


Catholicism has a similar concept of submission.
No, i swear it wasnt meant like that. I was going with the flow. Decent flow. Halal permissable flow.

It is just me saying peace all the time, love is important to muslims too. And islam "originally" comes from peace. Language has strayed with emotions since islam came 1400 years back.

Dear small.wonder :)

I dont want to defend myself at you, because I have really critical answers. And I like Christianity, I don't wish to reveal information that the evil ones can use. But my offer to Christians to find a commond word is open. You are welcome anytime if you change your mind. Our Quran is stable and written on a guarded tablet and we have our Mecca which noone can enter except muslims so we are bulletproof, we are waiting for you. Take your time. Our Quran is unchanging and it is perfect. And you do see that we can't change our Quran to fit with your desires of love and compassion and such. So we are waiting, wait you too, and you too over there. Finally, we will UNITE.

Not all will join hands. Devils (like that Lucifer over there and he can quote me on this) wont join hands with us. Our Imam said that we have to associate with the good guys and dissasociate with the bad guys. Have to dissasociate with the bad guys, but thats us. Christians I repeat are judged by their loyality to their book, it says so in the Quran. But it doesnt harm to take a look at the Quran. It is shorter than the Bible. I couldn't read it all myself, I've read half and now I am steadily forgetting more and more of what I had read. In the future inshallah I will read again. But I am a lazy INFP :(

You realize your request is totally absurd, right? It would be like me saying the exact thing to you: "Hey, our Bible is perfect Truth and we'd love to have you just agree with us and meet our God (he's amazing), but you're going to have to leave that legalistic hate stuff at the door, and actually embrace grace." Not happening, right?

Jesus called us to love all "the guys" (good, bad, broken, sparkly, hurting, lovely, annoying, etc.) equally, and can I say, it's pretty awesome, though it's challenging, it's life-giving! I'd not trade that for the world! So, you know, there's really nothing Islam can offer me, except friendship. :shrug:

Peace and submission. Same thing. Do you do judo?

Calling peace and submission the same thing is like saying rape is fine when she stops struggling.

I kick box.

I don't think critical thinking is exactly his forte. :coffee:

Why not? I love Jesus. He is my prophet. One of them. One of the greatest. And only Islam mentions Jesus, not Hinduism, not Buddhism or Judaism. We honor him and his mother. I dont, Allah does. I could be a bit to far on the Justice/Truth bit and say you bluntly, he is a prophet. No ... Thats not correct. Well, I am a bit to truthful and honest.

There is ... Like grass but bad grass, if you pull it up from top it will grow again. You have to uproot it from bottom, thats the whole point behind "organized hate". Then we can be merry.
