fellis:

Where did you 'find it out'? Am asking so as to know how to answer your question. Many people post lies about muslims and Islam. This is just one of them.
About your first question;
whatever a person did wrong before entering Islam is forgiven when he becomes a muslim.

Firstly, I'll try not to post anything without back-ups or lies
Secondly, it's obvious you are a new recruit so you may want to read Chapter 80 in the Quoran before you answer me? Didn't Prophet Mohammad turned his back on a blind man when he was preaching? And didn't he asked for forgiveness? Why did he seek forgiveness?

Keep your eyes on the Prize, (Jesus) that's all that matters

The nigerian naira has an islamic symbol yet christians spend it, pastors love to collect it as tithes and offerings. . . Hell pastors in Nigeria will collect a virus if you label it tithe. WHAT HYPOCRITES!

I think Christians can live with spending the naira knowing that Muslims and Christians have some things in common:-

We believe in one God (unlike you who don't believe in any)
We pray daily
We fast
Mary/Christ existed on earth
We believe in Heaven and Hell
We believe in God's judgement
We have a Holy book
We have the Abraham roots in us (children of Abraham)
God created us (including you)
Weekly worship
Helping (the act of giving)

But here you have atheists who have no morals, always criticizing and always mocking God but can't do without the "in God we trust. Ma'an you all should bring back bartering

I can't find a biblical verse saying Mary had other children, so I think James and others were not blood brothers. I think during those days "brother" was the term used for close friends, family members and disciples of Christ. If I am wrong, please forgive my carnal mind

Your answer is in 1 Timothy 5: 17-18 and 1 Corinthians 9:14. If the church can't pay the pastor then let him find a job

Lord I lift Your name on high

So here we have the Atheists denouncing God, yet spending US money  with "In God We Trust" on it.    The hypocrisy of these Atheists.

I was told today that Muhammed was a sinner yet Muslims claimed that Prophets cannot sin

Thanks, actually i'm not trying to DISPROVE your existence rather i pointed out PLAUSIBLE REASONS TO DOUBT your existence.
Now whether they're reasons enough for me or anyone else to disprove your existence is another matter entirely. . . .

which came first, the chicken or the egg

i am thankful

I don't need to check anything,the statement is quite clear. . .jesus compared the gentiles to dogs and elevated the jews to "children"! Thats pure RACISM

at tudor

i understand where you are coming from but you are basing your argument on couple verses.  Read the entire scripture to understand why Jesus referred to this Gentile woman as a dog while he was passing through the land of gentiles.

see what idiom can do to us?  It's all about reading and understanding

SeanT21:

21 Jesus left that place and went away to the district of Tyre and Sidon. 22 Just then a Canaanite woman from that region came out and started shouting, “Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David; my daughter is tormented by a demon.” 23 But he did not answer her at all. And his disciples came and urged him, saying, “Send her away, for she keeps shouting after us.” 24 He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” 25 But she came and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, help me.” 26 He answered, “It is not fair to take the children’s food and throw it to the dogs.” 27 She said, “Yes, Lord, yet even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their [b]masters’ [/b] table.” 28 Then Jesus answered her, “Woman, great is your faith! Let it be done for you as you wish.” And her daughter was healed instantly.

That last verse proved her faith to Christ. Jesus kept rejecting her yet she insisted on calling him Master. Jesus referred to her as a dog and she said " "Yes Lord, even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters table" Right away Jesus knew she was a woman of faith and was different from the other gentiles, so he healed her daughter instantly.

not understanding the bible doesn't mean it's weird. ask god for guidance, knowledge and understanding

Personally, none really matters because after we are dead the body is of no real importance. Be it burial or cremation, that body is worthless. Just make sure your soul is right with God.

So you agree that your greedy pastors are extorting money from their cnfused congregation for purchase of private jets and other materiaslistic things .

The word of the Lord makes it clear in galatians 5:4 that anyone who depends on the law to make themselves straight with christ has been cut off from grace,since he has rejected the sacrifice made by Jesus on the cross of calvarly.

Your greedy pastors for the love of money repudiate the sacrifice of the cross,it's not for me to condemn them I leave them for God.

With respect, the same way Catholics take up weekly/monthly collection to maintain their buildings, buy wine for communion, donations etc, the same goes for Christian (tithing) churches.

b) Let;s look at John 3:3. After reading this verse you'll agree that water baptism is a sign or a show that you are a new creature in Christ.

Why Catholics confirmed (recite the catechism (sp)) people instead of baptising them?

Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.”

If you want to contribute to the gowth of christianity go and start preaching against tithes and prosperity preaching because that is the greatest heresy ravaging christianity today .Pentecostal pastors have been fleecing their members of their hard earned money by telling them that thier finances will be affected if they don't pay tithes.[/b]WHEN YOU REMOVE THIS LOG OF MONEY WORSHIPING IN PROTESTANT CHURCHES YOU WILL SEE MORE CLEARY THE SO -CALLE

oh ye of little faith
Better tithing than taking money from criminals. Catholic Church has absolutely no qualms about taking criminal's money, and in fact thrive off of it. Look at all those mafias who were/are contributing heavily to the catholic churches - from Al capone to the ***** family (don't wanna mention that name) Catholics are living off Mafia's money. Try reading this book -[b]The Vatican Exposed: Money, Murder, and the Mafia

The way I see it, God wrote the Bible, utilizing the hands of man. II Timothy 3:16. Moses wasn't a Catholic. Neither was David. And I'm pretty darn sure that Matt, Mark, Luke and John were all Jews.
The Catholics did not write the bible because they came into existence around 1050 after they split from the Eastern Church and formed the papacy in Rome. They tried to modify the Bible to match their "unique" thinking but thank God for worldwide proofreaders. catholics have much to learn from the Christian Churches whether from their teaching or fellowship.

Let's us continue to pray for one another.

This was a deliberate act to make people laugh. It worked

chukwudi44:

Your stupidity is indescribable ,I thought you said catholics were detering pople away from the true faith,how come they are now the ones passing the good news to future generations.Mind you the catholic church was not founded at the council of niceea.

Great defenders of the faith like irenaeus of lyons ,tertullian,ignatius of antioch e.t.c lived long before the reign of emperor constantine and the council of nicea

It is said that reading is fundamental (http://www.rif.org/) and it's obvious you were in a rush since you spelled deterring and people wrong. I used the word "were" not "are".  Surely, you are not thinking that I am comparing the early followers of Jesus Christ to these modern day Idol (praying to the statue of Mary/Rosary beads) worshippers?   To know God personally is to pray through Jesus Christ.  He is God's only provision for our sin.

Continue to read the Bible and seek wisdom and knowledge.

Somewhat the same but isn’t. The differences are the length. A resume (french= a brief history) is shorter (1 or 2 pages) that gives concise information about the person’s education, skills and experiences. (employer is looking briefly at your qualifications

A CV (Course of Life) is longer (2 or more pages) - more like a detailed resume of your education, skills and experiences. CV is mostly used by Computer Techs, scientists, doctors, professors, politicians and lawyers because they usually list projects, workshops, conferences, cases, research experiences, etc. A CV is like a biography of your career

The Catholics didn't write the Bible! However, they were the ones responsible for passing on the good news to future generations. The scriptures already existed prior to the council of Nicea.

How do you determine mild sins from serious sins?  What happens if you commit a serious sin before you convert to Islam?

I would like to reiterate that I am not here to offend anyone

Catholics are leading many people down the wrong path by focusing way too much on Mary, the Saints, and rituals. It's ALL ABOUT JESUS Jesus is the way to Heaven"

Here are the bible verses on birthday. Can you answer the original question?

Now on the third day it turned out to be Phar´aoh’s birthday, and he proceeded to make a feast for all his servants and to lift up the head of the chief of the cupbearers and the head of the chief of the bakers in the midst of his servants. Genesis 40:20

But a convenient day came along when Herod spread an evening meal on his birthday for his top-ranking men and the military commanders and the foremost ones of Galilee. Mark 6:21

at Olabowale and Mukina2

According to the teaching of Prophet Muhammad, Muslims should not adopt practices, rituals, customs etc. Would you say birthdays fall into this category? Also, I thought the Prophe(saw)t never did.

always complaining
very nagging
not sexual adventurous (Same ole back position)
very jealous, every woman is a potential threat

Do you know the concept of hijab?

Why some Muslim women don't wear Islamic dress or hijab except for Temple worshipping

Why some Muslim men wear their pants below their waist (for fashion)

For those who don't follow the rules, are they true Muslims or hypocrites?
