fellis: Calm down.
Geez.
Ok sorry. I thought you were an atheist, I didn't know you were Rashidite.

fellis: Behavior like this is what makes people say that atheists are immoral.Can't you just read and learn from the thread instead of making trouble?

BetaThings: Your own beliefs are very different from what Allah directed the Prophet (PBUH) to convey to us.
You need to resolve that first!

pmc01: “Speaking the truth in love.” This motto summed up the purpose of the village church where you preached for 36 years. The words shone from a small bronze plaque that we passed on the way into Sunday morning service. We didn’t always live up to it, but it was a beacon and a reminder. It told us to be truth seekers, truth tellers, and truth sharers.
This may not come as good news, but I would never have become a Muslim had it not been for your teaching me to seek truth. My inquiring mind often disturbed and even embarrassed you, but you never condemned me for exploring new intellectual territory. Your main concern was that I walk with God and live in obedience to Him. For this I’m profoundly grateful to you; it’s the one thing that lead me to real freedom.

searchcorp: u see, beejay, i wont say u dont have a point....... good criticism...

My Focus was on Jesus all through my studies, but to think that history itself holds a bibliography dedicated to one man (Jesus) escapes me.

MoAfrica: I did achieve what i wanted but i feel empty, sometime i wonder if it worth all the hard work, when i was at Varsity i focused on books and nothing else... after Varstiy i worked hard to climb a corporate ladder....i worked for some of the best companies in the world but still i am feeling empty...i have all the monies many people are praying or wishing for but still i feel empty because i neglected my love life....i lost good women because of my ambitions. God have mercy on me.

LagosShia: It is an israeli plot,reading/analyzing the way the story has been made up.

Haaretz,an israeli newspaper,is reporting that these "suspects" or as they are called "iranian cell",are planning attack against americans and israelis in nigeria.

The SSS is saying they wanted to assasinate IBB and the Sultan.the SSS or us nigerians generally don't think like this.they included the Sultan's name in the allegation to incite Shia-Sunni strife in nigeria.this is the way israeli intelligence works.recently too, I just read about, the attack in bulgaria was manipulated.since israel wants the EU to designate hezbollah as a "terrorist organization",israel accused hezbollah of responsibility for killing israeli tourists in the bulgaria attack,something hezbollah denied.the EU have so far refused the israeli request to brand hezbollah a terrorist organization,because there's no evidence;since hezbollah is also a political party in lebanon.it represents the Shia population,who make up the largest religious community in lebanon at about 45% of the population.hezbollah also have a military wing known as a resistance movement,that beat israeli occupation out of lebanon.

This plot in nigeria is both to tarnish iran's image internationally and to set muslim fighting in nigeria.insha'Allah that will not happen in Nigeria.the enemies of Islam will not see us kill ourselves to their delight and evil intentions.

I know the case would be fought legally.I also hope the iranians don't keep quiet over these israeli manipulations,the zionist infiltrated media and SSS are seeking to milk.

deols: The best thing is to get a good lawyer and fight the cas3.

I wondered why Iran would be interested in Nigeria too. but no one can tell what this is really about until the investugations are concluded.

If the man is truly guilty, then too BAD.

but if he is innocent, I pray the bad people are EXPOSED.

mdsocks: I don't need to argue back and forth with you.. You wanna preach equality?? Tell that to the the dogs.

People of different religion hold their beliefs sacred and because you have a fundamental right to say things does not mean others don't hold a fundamental right for you to respect their deities and even if you wanna make fun, you do it in the corners of your room and not to their face.

Religion is a contentious issue and we all need to guide our utterances even though I don't support the violence but the pertinent question been asked is do Christians caution their followers not to say derogatory things about other people belief? NO!! So who has a much larger job to do?

deols: There are many reasons to doubt an atheist.

They have no guiding principles, no strict values. Life is all about what they subjectively think is right or wrong.

MacDaddy01: I am just curious.

The problem for the muslim designer was that he started working on the website before he knew about the atheism of James. I think he was "forced" to finish the project.


Hope the guy didnt sin by completing the website sha!

LagosShia: the muslim designer should have refund the money and stopped working for the atheist. im giving this based on a ruling of Ayatollah Sistani on christmas.he said if celebrating (like christmas tree and santa claus,not just wishing christians) would promote the beliefs or religion of others,it is forbidden.so drawing conclusion from that reasoning,it is forbidden for a muslim to promote what contradicts Islam or is against God.

if its an answer from a muslim perspective you're looking for,youve got one.by that i mean,i hope youre not as usual seeking attention,to go on and argue the answer to your question.

Frostyzone: Some vegetarians are so hypocritical as to eat eggs and drink cow milk, while still condemning people with normal appetite from eating meats.

Maybe eggs and milk grows from trees apparently in their weeded minds.

Another of their hypocrisy that gets me everytime is seeing one wearing leather belt while claiming to be vegetarian.

When I saw one, I was like, so you don't eat meat but you 'd rather wear one, abi?

Some of those weirdos are so frackin hypocritical that.....I'm short of words, but you get my point, right?

kwangi: I've always found the idea of vegetarianism based on respect for life to be hilarious.

My reason is simple. Plant and fruits are living things too!

I also wonder why the animal rights people base their argument on sentience? I don't want to believe plants are not conscious since they qualify as living things.

Life is life! No matter what your limited human knowledge and perception tells you!

k2039: [color=soyouquotedme]Sex lowers spirituality when it's not legal.

If marital sex will lower a couple's spirituality, I'm afraid God wouldn't have instituted marriage. [/color]

advocate666: which god instituted which marriage?

seyibrown: Perverted sex within marriage will affect your relationship with God!

intrepid: A friend was trying to tell me this but I have had a contrary opinion...He is still single but claimed that a married folk told him that being intimate sometimes affects one's spirituality negatively as she noticed that she wasnt always as fervent and powerful as before.....IS this assertion true or false?What is the truth people?

BetaThings: @Beejaay
Please can you write your response out
I am even beginning to mix up what you say with mine

I know the meaning of enemies. I used it advisedly. I am not persuaded to your view point
Let us leave Alawite sect out of this

So you truly believe that those who engage in propaganda don't know what they are doing?
How do you know for instance the truth about wars that have been fought by countries. Who is telling the truth, who is lying?

BetaThings: So everybody who is lied against is guilty and has some hidden lies?

BetaThings: If we are to take your argument, the fact that I run past a red light in traffic (and I lie about it - my hidden lie,following your theory) justifies someone concocting evidence that I am an armed robber or terrorist?

BetaThings: Please let us stay in the realm of reality. You said we should get real.
Hypothetical aphorisms (especially those unproven) break down easily
BTW why would you not spare a word for the liar in this instance. Why preach only to the victim?

BetaThings: I prefer to, as honestly and objectively as possible, defend Islam from people who malign it and misrepresent it
I will not attack other religions with falsehood *** just because you will not doesnt mean other wont freedom of speech/association
I cannot understand how exposing dedicated enemies of Islam who pretend to be Muslims but are using that subterfuge to present Islam in a a very bad light will hurt Islam and stop some people from embracing it **** u still dont get it. there is nothing like enemy of Islam. calling people enemy only make you operate from a close concept
Being double-faced, viciously fabricating damaging lies against other religions or taking up multiple IDs are things that a muslim should not do ***** no one i repeat no one can fabricate damaging lies against you if you dont have any hidden lies especially when its brought under public scrutiny. by trying to operate from a close concept only expose you more to what you are running from (case study is the ALAWITE SECT)

Now, you Beejaay, contest and deny the pillars of Islam while calling yourself a Muslim. Is that how to show the affectionate side of Islam? To lure people into a religion by presenting to people as optional matters on which they will have no choice but to accept?
I know what Islam preaches. The key obligations of a muslim (salat, Zakat etc) are MORE IMPORTANT than converting people. There is no way Islam allows us to trade the pillars for "acceptability and affectation"
NOT everybody will become a Muslim.

BetaThings: Muslims want to be left alone to discuss beneficial knowledge. Afteral

BetaThings: You seriously believe that everyone calling himself a Muslim on NL is one?
It is a new and growing strategy of the enemies of Islam to say "I am muslim" and then launch broadsides against Islam
Those attacks are potentially more effective because bystanders who are not aware of their intrigue and agenda are led to believe that some muslims are also concerned about some issues raised by non-muslims and are "courageous and truth-loving" enough to challenge fellow muslims
Reality is that the most inveterate haters of Islam are simply evolving new strategies to stick a knife into the religion
Multiple IDs on NLs are a dime a dozen
But there are usually tell-tale signs
They are as objective and sincere in their comments as Slim Jiddi who was the centre referee in the match between Ghana and Burkina Faso

Samdul: ol u advocating 4 a name change 4 dis section,i guess u guys are muslims right?y have u nt contributed in any way 2 enlighten ppls misconceptn abt islam,at least u can start 4rm dia.
