I havent read much of this thread, but people interested in these kinds of things could take a look at my webpage i've just added to my profile.

Not that I dont want to read it you understand, just i know that these ideas can lead to confusion and, simply, misunderstanding.

It's not really a useful question asked in the topic name, i must say ! :)

Please dont flame me or post 'inflammitory' comments on it here. If you want to talk about my page just PM me. If you dont want to read it now thats fine, it's quite in depth.

Some of it's even off topic too! ;)

back on topic...

Religion, in and of itself is just a word...

God didn't create a religion. Man created religion. God is love. plain and simple. All he wants is to be loved back.

no u guys got it wrong, what i am trying to ask is do you guys believe that religion is real or is just an excuse to explain the unknown. i don't care about what kind of religion, but religion as a general catagory

ok, if your asking about 'religion' i believe it is true, which answers your main question, though im also a christian, so i believe 'religion' actually refers to, similar as boogmasterdan said, just other things man has created to try and fill the void only God can fill.

-- and thats my bible bashing for the day, and i dont do it often, so dont bug me bout it if ur just looking to insult

the bible and torah may not be 100%, but the Quran DEFINETELY is 100% true.

i dont know one christian or jew or heard of one that has memorised the whole of the torah or the bible (gospel).

i know many people who have memorised the quran. this is how it has been over centuries, that is why the validity stays. that is why the Quran has not been falsified.

so you are saying everything is false until it is memorised

and then it becomes 100% true? :rofl:

I think what he was refering to was the dedication of those to memorize the Quran - and the lack of spiritual dedication by Christians in general.

Kinda sad that we Christians won't memorize the truth and you have heathens memorizing false doctrine and performing cultish activities...

mech, why would i try to prove the bible to you? it has been falsified so many times that it is embarassing to even think of using it!

now on the other hand, the Quran, a Holy book which has NOT been proved wrong.

aight, let me get some info for ya

Ignorance like this is what is wrong with the world today.

I know little about Islam, as I'm currently in the process of learning more about buddhism, but one message has been repeated over and over again through this entire thread, by other muslims, and that is that true followers of the Islamic faith don't behave in the manner in which you are. Constantly belittling other religions for having a different belief structure than Islam isn't a way to get your point across, nor (according to what I've read in this thread) a proper activity for Muslim followers. And since you seem incapable of formulating a concept on your own without insulting or posting links that attempt to get across what you're trying to say, what exactly is the point of your continuous posting, other than to raise your own post count? I suggest that, instead of wasting everyones time by injecting yourself into conversations that are above your capacity for understanding, you spend more time reading the Quaran, since it's painfully obvious that you more than likely never have.

That being said...

I was going to try to stay out of this thead, since it seems quite long and heated, and I've seen hardly anything original or even worthy of such an extended conversation. The only point I have, or even worthwhile to contribute to all this mess is that IMHO, religion is nothing more than a path, and each religion (or lack thereof) is merely a different path to the same destination. It is what you do along that path that determines who you are and how you are remembered. If you can live your life and be a good person without religion, more power to you. If you need spirituality in your life, feel free. One of the traits that raises us above common animals is the capacity for free will and thought; exercise it, to yourself. To attempt to force your personal beliefs (or lack thereof) on others is nothing more than continuing a cycle of stupidity that has done nothing but cause dispair and discontent throughout human history. Spirituality is a personal choice, not a pep rally. It's a personal decision. Keep it that way.

no... what he IS saying is that the sources for all the Holy Books today are generally flawed, ie they have been tampered with due to the fact tht their various copies have been lost/destroyed etc. However the Quran, which is the only exception is preserved in it's true form, because as a sign of respect, many muslims MEMORISE the entire Quran. This practice has been carrying on from the day the Quran was revealed, and thus manyparents taught their children the Quran by heart, and so we can be sure today tht the copies of the Quran we read today are still 100% authentic.

Pls do note that Islam in no way requires that we memorise the Quran. It is only done by people as a sign of respect.

Proven my point, thanks!

About the god part, again read my signature.

God doesn't have a problem with homosexual people at all. It's their sin that he doesn't tolerate.

But at the same time, he doesn't like lies, murder, stealing, and using His name in vain.

Why don't people swear to other gods?

Instead of calling on Jesus, why not "Zeus!" or something? Even better, I prefer the ever popular, "Oh man..." Because it's not God's fault we're damned, and "Jesus H. Christ" isn't the problem. It's man's fault, and Jesus is the solution... =)

    • Valve will finally let you build your own Steam Machine with SteamOS for desktop

      By branfont · Posted

      If you don’t get lucky with Valve’s Steam Machine reservation system, you can make your own Steam Machine instead. Valve says that “starting with the SteamOS 3.8 release, you can put together your own Steam Machine using whatever PC parts you want.” SteamOS 3.8.10 launched last week with a slew of updates, including “improved compatibility with recent Intel and AMD platforms.” Alongside that improved compatibility, Valve is giving gamers the green light to install SteamOS on their own desktops. In an interview with The Verge, Valve’s Pierre-Loup Griffais said Valve has been “rolling out improvements to [SteamOS] so it’s more compatible with desktop hardware,” including eventual support for Nvidia graphics. Griffais says Valve has “a growing team” working on Nvidia driver support for SteamOS, adding, “We’re collaborating with Nvidia very closely.” While he mentioned that Nvidia support might not come this year, Griffais emphasized that “it’s certainly something that we’re working on in the background.”     Subscription not needed: https://archive.fo/Tssfc Subscription needed: https://www.theverge.com/games/953411/valve-steamos-desktop-nvidia

      I thought they were supposed to reduce the amount of restarts needed to install these updates? It took 3 restarts to install this update...
    • AI is indeed eliminating jobs, and Oracle just proved it

      By Jdoe25 · Posted

      I know an idiot at work who is "Director for innovation projects" and inevitably has been tasked with following up on this whole trend of "AI and its work applicability". He recently sent out a survey on the topic, for the workforce to disclose their usage and attitudes towards AI. The survey was badly, sloppily typed out, the questions and answers (when multiple choices) were loosely correlated and, all and all, it would already be miserable in the times of MS Office Autocorrect alone. Then, I had AI responding to it all (on the open-ended questions) with beautiful, to-the-point prose after I provided it with minor but proper guidance, taking me under 10 minutes. All this to say that I am sure that if AI comes to replace someone, it will still be me, and the other idiot will still stay.
