Your anti God secular humanism is just a religion that you used in replacing the belief in God. It remains a religion nonetheless. Read the conversation in the link below for more details.

Every atheist is in truth, an idolater. The god (gods) he doesn't believe in don't exist. He is simply a figment of an unbelieving imagination.

Conversation between an atheist and a Christian:

Frodo Underhill Said: "…every other religion gives its adherents hope; that's kind of the point of religion."

Ray Answers: Your statement shows that you neither know what Christianity delivers or what "religion" offers.

Religion says that if you are good enough and do enough, you may bribe God enough to give you everlasting life. It is hopeless because it can’t deliver its hope. God will not pervert justice by allowing Himself to be bribed. In fact His Word warns "The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to God." Try and bribe an earthly judge and you will find yourself under the wrath of criminal law. Religious works simply stir more wrath from God for our sin.

Christianity is different. It says that although the Judge is wrath-filled against all wickedness, He is rich in mercy and has provided a Saviour. Jesus took the wrath of God’s Justice upon Himself—taking the punishment for our sins. Through His death and resurrection, God can now freely forgive our sins and let us live. He grants us the "gift" of eternal life (see Romans 6:23). We don’t have to strive to earn God’s favour. It's freely given to us because He is good and kind.

So religion is utterly hopeless, while Christianity delivers eternal salvation from death and Hell to all who repent and trust alone in Jesus.

Jesus, symbol of peace in the middle east.

Is that really You Jesus?

Mahatma Ghandi acknowledged the inability of his religion to atone for sin. Despite his moral lifestyle and good works, he admitted, "It is a constant torture to me that I am still so far from Him whom I know to be my very life and being. I know it is my own wretchedness and wickedness that keeps me from Him." All works-based religions lead to futility and death. It is only in Jesus Christ that sinners can find forgiveness for their sins and deliverance from death and hell.

Without the Law of God (the Ten Commandments) humanity predictably strays into "idolatry" (atheism is a form of idolatry). The First of the Ten Commandments addresses this with "I am The Lord your God. You shall have no other God's before Me." When Israel waited at the foot of Mount Sinai for Moses to receive that Law, like a car with a blowout of a front tire at 70 MPH, they veered off the right path into idolatry, and the immediate result was that they took their clothes off and partied. Thus we have Law-less modern America. They have lost sight of the moral Law, have predictably taken off their clothes and partied. If we believe that there's no Law, then there's no morality. However the Law was written in stone for a reason. It's permanent. It will be the unwavering standard of judgment on Judgment Day (see Romans 2:12, James 2:12) and will justly damn those who transgress its perfect precepts.

More objections from atheists and answers:

"When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours" Lou Spowles

We dismiss all other god's because the Creator of the Universe stated as the First of the Ten Commandments "You shall have no other gods before Me." We don't dismiss gods because they don't exist, but because they do. Man has always had a propensity to create false gods, "gods" shaped in his mind by the image of what he thinks God is like, something the Bible calls "idolatry." So you would be wise to re-think the reason for your sweeping dismissal, and to consider your eternal salvation, before death seizes you and seals your fate forever.

Is the Qur'an credible?

According to Islam, the Qur'an is not only credible; it is God's only uncorrupted revelation. Thus, according to Muslim scholars, if it is to be compared with anything in Christianity it is to be compared with Christ rather than the Bible. In truth, however, the Bible can be demonstrated to be divine rather than human in origin. The same cannot be said for the Qur'an. Moreover, unlike the Bible the Qur'an is replete with faulty ethics and factual errors. First, unlike the Qur'an, the Bible is replete with prophecies that could not have been fulfilled through chance, good guessing, or deliberate deceit. Surprisingly, the predictive nature of many Bible passages was once a popular argument among liberals against the reliability of the Bible. Critics argued that various passages were written later than the biblical texts indicated because they recounted events that happened sometimes hundreds of years after they supposedly were written. They concluded that subsequent to the events, literary editors went back and "doctored" the original nonpredictive texts. But this is simply wrong. Careful research affirms the predictive accuracy of the Scriptures.

Since Christ is the culminating theme of the Old Testament and the Living Word of the New Testament, it should not surprise us that prophecies regarding him outnumber all others. Many of these prophesies would have been impossible for Jesus to deliberately conspire to fulfill—such as his descent from Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob (Genesis 12:3; 17:19; Matthew 1:1–2; Acts 3:25); his birth in Bethlehem (Micah 5:2; Matthew 2:1–6); his crucifixion with criminals (Isaiah 53:12; Matthew 27:38; Luke 22:37); the piercing of his hands and feet on the cross (Psalm 22:16; John 20:25); the soldiers gambling for his clothes (Psalm 22:18; Matthew 27:35); the piercing of his side (Zechariah 12:10; John 19:34); the fact that his bones were not broken at his death (Psalm 34:20; John 19:33–37); and his burial among the rich (Isaiah 53:9; Matthew 27:57–60). In sharp contrast, predictive prophecies demonstrating the divine origin of the Qur'an are conspicuous by their absence. While the Qur'an contains a number of self-fulfilling prophecies such as Muhammad’s prediction that he would return to Mecca (Sura 48:27), this is very different from the kinds of prophecies outlined above. Other prophecies such as Muhammad's prediction that the Romans would defeat the Persians at Issus (Sura 30:2–4) are equally underwhelming. Unlike the biblical examples presented above, this prophecy is not fulfilled in the far future and thus can be easily explained through good guessing or an accurate apprehension of prevailing military conditions.

Furthermore, the Qur'an is replete with questionable ethics—particularly when it comes to the equality of women. For example, in Sura 4:3 Muhammad allegedly received a revelation from God allowing men to "marry women of your choice, two, three, or four." Ironically, in Sura 33:50 Muhammad receives a divine sanction to marry "any believing woman who dedicates her soul to the Prophet if the Prophet wishes to wed her." Thus while other men were only permitted to marry up to four wives, Allah provided Muhammad with a divine exception for his marriage to at least twelve women—including Aishah, whom he married at the tender age of eleven (see the Life of Muhammad by Muhammad Husayn Haykal). Also troubling is the fact that the Qur'an allows men to "beat" (lightly) their wives in order that they might "return to obedience" (Sura 4:34). When we compare the personal morality of Muhammad in the Qur'an with that of Jesus in the Bible, the difference is remarkable.

The Qur'an exorts Muhammad to ask "forgiveness for thy fault" (Sura 40:55). Conversely, Christ’s ethics with regard to every aspect of life—including his treatment of women—was so unimpeachable that he could rightly ask: "Can any of you prove me guilty of sin?" ( John 8:46; 2 Corinthians 5:21; 1 John 3:5)

Finally, unlike the Bible the Qur’an is riddled with factual errors. A classic case in point involves the Qur'an's denial of Christ’s crucifixion. This denial chronicled in Sura 4:157 is explicit and emphatic: "They killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them … for of a surety they killed him not." In reality, however, the fatal suffering of Jesus Christ as recounted in the New Testament is one of the most well-established facts of ancient history. Even in today’s modern age of scientific enlightenment, there is a virtual consensus among New Testament scholars, both conservative and liberal, that Jesus died on a Roman cross.

Recent archaeological discoveries not only dramatically corroborate the Bible’s description of Roman crucifixion but authenticate the biblical details surrounding the trail that led to the fatal torment of Jesus Christ—including the Pilate Stone and the burial grounds of Caiaphas, the high priest who presided over the religious trials of Christ. These discoveries have been widely acclaimed as a compelling affirmation of biblical history. Not only so but the earliest Jewish response to the death and burial of Jesus Christ presuppose the reality of the empty tomb. Instead of denying that the tomb was empty, the antagonists of Christ accused his disciples of stealing the body.

One final point should be made. The Qur’anic denial of Christ's crucifixion has led to a host of other errors as well. From a Muslim perspective, Jesus was never crucified and, thus, never resurrected. Instead, in Islam, God made someone look like Jesus and the look-alike was mistakenly crucified in his place. The notion that Judas was made to look like Jesus has recently been popularized in Muslim circles by a late medieval invention titled The Gospel of Barnabas. In short, the distance between the Muslim Qur'an and the Christian Scriptures is the distance of infinity. Not only does the prophetic prowess of the Bible elevate it far above the holy books of other religions, but as new archaeological nuggets are uncovered the trustworthiness of Scripture as well as the unreliability of pretenders are further highlighted. Faulty ethics and factual errors demonstrate that the Qur'an is devoid of divine sanction. In sharp distinction, ethics and factual evidence demonstrate that the Bible is divine rather than human in origin.

--Hank Hanegraaff |The Complete Bible Answer Book

"In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven" --- Hebrews 1:1–3.

How do we know that the Bible is divine in origin?

To defend the faith we must be equipped to demonstrate that the Bible is divine rather than human in origin. When we can successfully accomplish this, we can answer a host of other objections by appealing to Scripture.

To begin with, the Bible has stronger manuscript support than any other work of classical history— including Homer, Plato, Aristotle, Caesar, and Tacitus. Equally amazing is the fact that the Bible has been virtually unaltered since the original writing, as is attested by scholars who have compared the earliest extant manuscripts with manuscripts written centuries later. Additionally, the reliability of the Bible is affirmed by the testimony of its authors, who were eyewitnesses—or close associates of eyewitnesses—to the recorded events, and by secular historians who confirm the many events, people, places, and customs chronicled in Scripture.

Furthermore, archaeology is a powerful witness to the accuracy of the New Testament documents. Repeatedly, comprehensive archaeological fieldwork and careful biblical interpretation affirm the reliability of the Bible. For example, recent archaeological finds have corroborated biblical details surrounding the trial that led to the fatal torment of Jesus Christ—including Pontius Pilate, who ordered Christ’s crucifixion, as well as Caiaphas, the high priest who presided over the religious trials of Christ. It is telling when secular scholars must revise their biblical criticisms in light of solid archaeological evidence.

Finally, the Bible records predictions of events that could not be known nor predicted by chance or common sense. For example, the book of Daniel (written before 530 BC) accurately predicts the progression of kingdoms from Babylon through the Median and Persian empires to the further persecution and suffering of the Jews under Antiochus IV Epiphanes with his desecration of the temple, his untimely death, and freedom for the Jews under Judas Maccabeus (165 BC). It is statistically preposterous that any or all of the Bible’s specific, detailed prophecies could have been fulfilled through chance, good guessing, or deliberate deceit.

Prophet [AS] always had special conditions than his community. While muslims can marry 4 each time and divorce them and repeat this throughout his life, Muhammad [SA] was restricted in Surah Ahzab. He was married to 1 wife until she [RA] died. Allah permitted him to marry widows, divorcee, virgin, young and old, which allows us the muslims in a natural pattern of life ot living to marry these grades of women.


I am sure it is not underwhelming or guess work when the Quran says the body of the pharaoh of exodus will be recovered so that later generations can see what becomes a tyrant. I am sure that Quran got Haman the chief builder of pharaoh. both of these there is no other religious book that got it right, along with the Quran.

Chapter 110 says people will enter Islam in drove. We are seeing that even now and there is no period iafter its revelation that this is not the case.

Quran, the final guidance. If you miss its message and refuse to follow it, you will have yourself to blame when the soul is being called back to its Creator, leaving your body lifelss for others to assist you to the grave or the crematorium. The choice is yours and The Justice belong to God.

Never could I say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, Thou wouldst indeed have known it. Thou knowest what is in my heart, though I know not what is in Thine. For Thou knowest in full all that is hidden."
120. "Never said I to them aught except what Thou didst command me to say, to wit, 'Worship Allah, my Lord and your Lord'; and I was a witness over them whilst I dwelt amongst them; when Thou didst take me up Thou wast the Watcher over them, and Thou art a witness to all things."
