In my opinion we Muslims need to take the bold step of challenging the very idea that the Qur’an and Sunna are infallible. This will come as a shock to those of us brought up on the idea that the Qur’an is the perfect word of God, but some Muslims are already doing this. Thinkers such as Abdul Karim Soroush from Iran, Sayyed Ahmad Al-Qabbanji from Iraq and Saeed Nasheed from Morocco are questioning traditional views about the Qur’an.Saeed Nasheed, in his recent book, Modernity & the Qur’an, said: “The Qur’an is not the speech of God, just as the loaf of bread is not the work of the farmer. God produced the raw material, which was inspiration, just as the farmer produces the raw material, which is wheat. But it is the baker who turns the wheat or flour into bread according to his own unique way, artistic expertise and creative ability. Thus it is the Prophet who was responsible for interpreting the inspiration and turning it into actual phrases and words according to his own unique view.”

Why is this such an essential step? Because once you stop protecting ideas on the basis that “God said it”, you create a level playing field where good ideas can battle it out with bad ideas on an equal footing. It allows reason to be the deciding factor for whether something is accepted or rejected, rather than: “Because it’s written – that’s why!” No more searching for tenuous interpretations or changing the meaning of words into something else, just so we can avoid the problematic and uncomfortable meanings.

As long as we refuse to appreciate that the Qur’an may be divinely inspired but is human-authored, we will be forced to continue playing the game of the fundamentalists and disarming ourselves of the only weapon that can defeat them – reason. Only when we recognise that the Qur’an and Sunna are fallible can we free Islam from the prison of dogma we placed it in.

HUMAN RIGHTS AND RELIGION

Over the centuries, we have extended human rights but this has sometimes been in the face of fierce opposition from religious groups. I have devised a simple test to see how religion affects people's attitudes to human rights.

Please answer the 10 questions below. Award yourself 1 point for each question you answer YES to, and no points if you answer NO. Then comment below and tell us your SCORE and your RELIGION or lack thereof.

1 Should we be free to change our religion or have no religion?

2 Should we be free to publicly criticise any religion or belief system?

3 Should adult gay couples be free to live together openly?

4 Should it be a crime to have non-consensual sex with women captured during a war?
.
5 Should everyone have equal rights in law regardless of their religion or lack of religion?

6 Should it be common assault, punishable by law, if a man strikes his wife?

7 Should men & women have equal legal rights in divorce?

8 Should men and women have equal legal rights in inheritance?

9 Should men and women be treated equally in a court of law?

10 Should men and women have equal access to primary and higher education?
.

I suspect religious background has more effect on attitudes to human rights than age, education, income or gender. Of course, to test this hypothesis I would need a large sample and to ask more demographic questions. So I can't test my hypothesis but I will predict that most atheists will score 10; Christians will have a slightly lower average score than atheists and Muslims will lag some way behind Christians.

To see if I'm right, take the test!

To get you started, I'm an atheist and I scored 10.

Those who preach heaven are always the ones who never want to go there. Lol. Better be glad you worse a seat belt.

emeijeh:
Too bad....
Reminds me of 1990 when i did same thing in my dad's car in the scorching sun of benin city.
Thank God i was rescued




Thank God for his mercies

I guess God didn't feel like rescuing those poor kids. He must like you more than he lused them.

Selfish mindless people.

PETITION TO THE MEDICAL AND DENTAL COUNCIL OF NIGERIA.

The Atheist Society of Nigeria(ASN), as their first public act, has petitioned the Medical and Dental Council of Nigeria (MDCN) concerning the practice of its medical professionals referring and encouraging patients to seek the help of faith healers rather than scientifically proven medical methods, thereby bringing the reputation and practice of the medical profession in Nigeria into disrepute.

Attached below is a copy of the petition sent to the MDCN and other relevant authorities...

This is the same thing pastors do so why is it a crime only with the traditionalists? How much money have Nigerians dropped for divine healing? How much money have thru dripped for floodgates of heaven? Oledepo adebole, olekhilome and the rest have been scamming people with fake promises for years. Hey are criminals too

Smile or else.""

#pastorsuleimanbelike

God didn't shown him this gbege will happen abi...but he told him a lie thato el rufai will die. slowpoke

Pastor suleiman be like!.

slowpoke.

Why didn't gej arrest them then since you all.knew who was behind it?
Anyone who believes this deranged thief is an idiot.

See his stripper toto licking mouth. Lol

jayriginal:
In 2015, God still uses words like "behold" and after singling you out to speak to (something that a lot of people have been praying for), he chose to speak a single sentence, not telling you how to achieve world peace or anything useful but to announce himself as Lord of all flesh, something you already ought to have known?


Pray tell me, what was your diet beforehand?

Most rational comment so far.

Was it baritone or was it a thin voice?

You heard voices because your brain had been under a lot of stress from.lack of sleep.

Either that or you need to see a psychiatrist.

obailala:
Lol.. I don't hate no one bro... I just find their endless wailing quite irritating, especially when the people wailing loudest are the same set of miscreants that put us in our present mess. Just imagine a person like Reno criticising govt so loudly?.... And then imagine the kind of people that take him seriously?... For the very same set of people who ruined the nation to still shamelessly have a voice to criticise others, it tells you how messed up the country still is.

Because they know.majority are foolish and ignorant...they will fall for anything no matter how ridiculous as long as it supports their beliefs. Why do you think religion sells like crazy here? Gullible people who are so easy to manipulate are the majority.

happney65:
Bros he reach this level...Habaaaab..Ahahahhahahaha..omolola15 veekid freeezzz come and see this comment..I don laugh tire...

Can he state the lies Lai mohammed has told?? I doubt if he can.

Can someone please state 10 lies Lai Mohammed has told since he became a minister?

Thank you.

If you fall for this nonsense by reno, you're an idiot.

I didn't see any logical and real benefit just illusory ones

Christians die
Christians fall sick
Christians lose loved ones
Christians go broke
Christians get robbed
There are jobless Christians
There are insane Christians


So...I see no benefits

Because it is all a scam. Your god has no evidence of existence....simple.

You guys should read some Robert Ingersoll please. Don't be fooled.

chrmn1:
which God? The one you asked to steer clear of your affairs? Is that the God you want to save you from the perils of life? How would He steer clear from your affairs and still guide your affairs to ensure they all turn out right?

Which God please?

So bimbo odukoya, myles munroe and the poor corper...the Christians killed by isis and boko haram...the many children dying from diseases deserve to die because God ignored them for telling him to leave their affairs?

Which God? The one that couldn't save the poor corper that died? The one that couldn't save members of the potiskum branch of rccg from boko haram gun men that massacred then during church service? The one that coulent save bimbo osikoya or myles munroe from a plane crash? The one that couldn't save the baby that died drowning in oyedepo's school?

You guys need to wake up from your deep sleep

None...both are work of some simpletons...Quran from an unlettered simpleton. Both are inaccurate exaggerations of local events (Noah flood and Egyptian plague) written by people who never knew about dinosaurs, microbiology, genetics and astronomy.

If those are the words of any god, then that god must be an idiot and deserves no worship but utter condemnation.
