What is the different between atheism,cult/religion? Some religion are not different from cult, in a real sense an atheists is not to embarrassed to joined a cult. Atheists reject the existence of God in a real sense that the motto of a cult,—being free to do as they please, and the lack of ultimate accountability—there are no eternal consequences for doing as they please. Within the atheist religion, there have been a number of atheist cults and atheistic groups which have had a cultish following. Some of these atheist cults/ groups still exist today. In 2015, FtBCon which is an online conference organized by the Freethought Blogs network, recognized that nonreligious/secular cults exist (for example, the atheist cult of objectivism). http://www.conservapedia.com/Atheist_cults |
mustymatic:can you show me in the quran were muhammed directly encounter Allah? Speak directly to Allah!!! |
Abuamam:christians are advice to ask questions and be fully convinced of what they believe. https://www.nairaland.com/2148108/christian-faith-based-upon-evidence You are a liar, can you go to any Islamic nation and question the believe of ISLAM? We all know what happened to thoes who challenge Islamic belief.Islamic belief is based on blind faith.Isn’t the belief that the devil sleeps in your nose at night based on blind faith? Isn't Muslim blind faith based on Sunnah of one man Muhammad, Sunnah written 214 year after his death? Who is the witnesses of muhammed encounter with the spiritual being? In the bible we read how God will not only revealed himself to a prophet but to the prophet friends and family,Abraham encounter God and Isaac and Sarah bear witnesses,Moses encounter God and Aaron and Miriam bear witnesses, David hear directly from God and solomon confirmed it, elijah hear from God and his servant bear witnesses, last of All johh the baptist bear witnesses of Jesus as the son of God. Who was the witnesses of muhammed? Only one man have the encounter, the faith of All muslims begins in a day a man experience a spiritual forced who he(muhammed) thought it was a demon, all muslims believe in this encounter with scrutiny,as a matter of fact muhammed did not even hear directly to Allah, it is kadijah muhammed rich wife who advice muhammed that the spirit is angel Gabriel, is she a prophetess? The faith of All muslims begins in a cave of hira. |
MuttleyLaff:yes, believers don't practice religion but believer should be tolerance in other people culture,that was what Paul did, Paul was aware of there culture about women and he respect it. But in Corinthians the context was about the prophecy and toung. Women can have this gift and when they do, they should not assume authority over the men. That was the message in Corinthians. I haven't read your explanation, I will do later. |
elveco:I read the link but not all, there are many points the writer of the blog missed,see, religion is like a CULTURE,religion cannot provide all the truth for you.Paul is a very wise teacher.if you examine history, women were culturally not educated. It was considered the domain of men. Even in our Western societies, 100 years ago the role of women was to stay at home, raise the family and support the husband who worked. Things have drastically changed today. Now Paul was thoroughly saturated with the culture of his day. He could not be. Yet, he seems quite aware of it when he talks in the Corinthians and Timothy passage that you quoted, stating this as his personal beliefs and providing his own justification. |
Empiree:let me repeat the question once more. Where in the quran Allah say the scripture/bible is corrupted? Or are you adding your own revelation in the quran? |
Empiree:where in the quran Allah say the scripture has been corrupted? Answer my previous questions and see where it will land you. |
truthman2012:may God open there eyes. |
Sibe007:the problem with your question is that, you misunderstand the context and called it contradiction. Verse 34 Women[f] should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the law says. If we are to go with your way of thinking, then woman will not be able to sing or pray in the church which law say woman are not to speak in the church?if you continue the reading you will get the picture of what Paul is saying in verse 34. The context of this chapter is talking about "PROPHECY AND TOUNG" what Paul is indicating is that women can have this gift and when they do, they should not assume authority over the MEN. Here what verse 39 and 40 say; 39 Therefore, my brothers and sisters, be eager to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues. 40 But everything should be done in a fitting and orderly way. This verses indicate that both men and WOMEN can have the gift but they can used it ORDERLY. |
Sahih Bukhari, Volume 1, Book 3, Number 92: Narrated Abu Musa: The Prophet was asked about things which he did not like, but when the questioners insisted, the Prophet got angry. How is that in Islam, questioning can lead to losing one’s faith? Does not this prove that even the right answers can lead to losing one’s faith in Islam? Is blind faith the way to Islam? Only an information control cult would discourage anyone from asking questions. Is it rational to accept any one religion as the true religion without investigating or questioning it? Surely not! Therefore, we will continue to question Muslims about the teachings of Islam. |
EzioAuditore:all what you wrote here is nonsense,Hindu and islam have similarity in worship,why?muhammed kissed the black stone bow towards it and shade tearz on it, if this is not a paganism, than is what? You are not to bow down towards any human being not to talkless of STONE.debate with you is a wast of time, I ask you why allah sanctioned pagan way of worship to ISLAM and you are explaining the meaning of Allah to me!!! You said Christianity worship sun god, back up your claimed just as I back up my claimed using quran and hadith to proved Allah himself approved pagn worship. |
EzioAuditore:where are your evidence? Don't copy and paste conspiracy theory, give me biblical evidence. Meanwhile here are evidence of paganism in Islam; Sahih Bukhari, Volume 6, Book 60, Number 23: Narrated By ‘Asim bin Sulaiman: I asked Anas bin Malik about Safa and Marwa (i.e. two mountains at Mecca). Anas replied, “We used to consider (i.e. going around) them a custom of the Pre-Islamic period of Ignorance, so when Islam came, we gave up going around them. Then Allah revealed, ‘Verily, Safa and Marwa (i.e. two mountains at Mecca) are among the Symbols of Allah. So it is not harmful of those who perform the Hajj of the House (of Allah) or perform the Umra to ambulate (Tawaf) between them.’” ( Surah 2:158) [End of Quote] Surah 2:158: “Lo! (the mountains) As- Safa and Al-Marwah are among the indications of Allah. It is therefore no sin for him who is on pilgrimage to the House (of Allah) or visiteth it, to go around them ( as the pagan custom is).” (Pickthall) How can the very same two mountains that were sacred to the pagans become the “Symbols of Allah” all of a sudden? Moreover, how is it that the very same pagan ritual of running between the two hills is also retained in Islam? In addition, why was the Arab pagan ritual of going around the Ka’ba seven times, also retained in Islam? In the Hindu marriage rite of Saptapadi, the married couple circumnavigate the fire seven times. In the Islamic ritual of Tawaf, Muslims also circumnavigate the Ka’ba seven times. In both of these rituals, religious phrases are repeated during the circumambulation. Some of the rituals that Muslims follow during the Hajj are the same as the rites observed by Hindus in their worship of Shiva. Take note of some of the striking similarities: (1) Both Hindu and Muslim male devotees are required to shave their heads during their pilgrimage. (2) And similar to their Hindu counterparts, male Muslim pilgrims are also required to dress in a garment consisting of two sheets of white cloth. This type of garment is known as Dhoti in Hinduism. (3) Just as the worshippers of Shiva observe a rite in which they walk around their object of reverence seven times, Muslim pilgrims also walk around the Ka’ba seven times. (4) Both their objects of reverence are Black Stones. In Hinduism, the Black Stone is known as Shiva lingam. (5) While Hindus drink water from the Ganga River as part of the sacred rites in their worship of Shiva, Muslims drink from the Well of Zamzam during the Hajj. (6) Additionally, the Crescent moon, which is associated with the Hindu deity Shiva, is also a symbol for Islam. In the Hindu portrayal of the Shiva symbol, the crescent moon is always painted across his forehead. Moreover, in every portrayal of Shiva, there is always a depiction of a snake curled around his neck. Weirdly, in pre-Islamic times, Allah is supposed to have sent a snake to guard the treasures of the Ka’ba. It may surprise Muslims to know that Umar, the 2nd Caliph of Islam, had reservations about kissing the pagan Black Stone. Sahih Bukhari, Volume 2, Book 26, Number 675: Narrated by Zaid bin Aslam: From his father who said: “Umar bin Al-Khattab addressed the Corner ( Black Stone) saying, ‘By Allah! I know that you are a stone and can neither benefit nor harm. Had I not seen the Prophet touching (and kissing) you, I would never have touched (and kissed) you.’ Then he kissed it.” This is a very revealing statement coming from one who used to be a pagan. Umar’s conversion to monotheism was so absolute that he was able to make the above observation while his Prophet was actually venerating a pagan idol. The reason behind Umar’s reluctance in kissing the Black Stone is that the pagan Arabs also performed this same ritual. However, Umar venerated his Prophet and this eventually led him to venerate the pagan idol. Ultimately, he ended up venerating the Black Stone, Muhammad and Allah. |
Empiree:surah10:94 "And if thou wert in doubt as to what We have revealed unto thee, then ask those who have been reading the BOOK FROM BEFORE THEE..." " those who have been reading the BOOK FROM BEFORE THEE..." are christians and Jews, if this people are reading corrupted book it's make NO sense for Allah to ask the muslims to make confirmation in there BOOK, and if the scripture is corrupted before muhammed had died, how was he able to see the revelation that the scripture(bible) is corrupted?it is absolutely necessary to believe that the Scriptures before Islam are uncorrupted! |
truthman2012:they are very good in derailing thread. |
Abuamam: truthman2012: Abuamam: |
Abuamam:the topic of this thread is about Abraham journey to Mecca whereas the one you paste was talking about building kabba. |
Rilwayne001:Why did Muhammad express a desire to pray facing the Ka’ba while it remained a pagan shrine? At the time when Surah 2:144 was revealed to change the Qiblah from Jerusalem to Mecca, the Ka’ba was still a pagan shrine housing 360 pagan idols. Why would Allah permit his Prophet to bow towards the Ka’ba while it was still polluted with 360 pagan idols? The command given in the Qur’an to change the Qiblah predates by years the conquest of Mecca. Those idols were destroyed only after the conquest of Mecca. Thus, during all those intervening years, between the time the Qiblah was changed towards the Ka’ba and the conquest of Mecca, whenever Muhammad faced the Ka’ba to pray, the Ka’ba remained a shrine of idol-worship. This is not an insignificant matter in terms of worship. Why was Muhammad not commanded to wait until the removal of those idols? Why did Allah submit to Muhammad’s desire and as a result make it a requirement for the early Muslims to bow towards the direction of the pagan idols, whenever they approach him in prayer during all those intervening years? Did not Allah say, “To Allah belongs the East and the West”? Why, then must the prayers of the Muslims be directed towards the pagan shrine in order to reach the ears of Allah? Notice the commanding tone of Allah in Surah 2:144: “Wherever ye are, turn your faces in that direction.” The following Hadith clearly shows that the idols were destroyed only after the conquest of Mecca which took place several years later after the Qiblah was changed towards the Ka’ba. Sahih Bukhari, Volume 5, Book 59, Number 583: Narrated By Abdullah: When the Prophet entered Mecca on the day of the Conquest, there were 360 idols around the Ka’ba. |
Rilwayne001:you ask if Jesus was a descended of Joseph which is wrong, how can Joseph be the descended of Jesus when Joseph is the legal father of Jesus? That not the issue now. Stop reading the bible like the way you read the quran,the context where it say Jesus will come from the descended of solomon, it was reffering to the royal line. The major book were the prophecy of Jesus coming from the descended of David did not say only solomon.it's from the book of isaiah; Isaiah 7:13, "And he said, Hear ye now, O HOUSE of David." it including all the children of David and Nathan was one of them Why are you sounding like someone who dosent understand English? Matthew add solomon because matthew talk about Jesus royal line, solomon is the rightful hair to David throne, and Luke did not add solomon because Luke trace his biological line, infacte Luke add some gentile.Luke, writing for Gentile readers, carries his ancestral list back to Adam, the progenitor of both Jews and Gentiles, in order to prove Christ to be the Saviour of both Jews and Gentile. |
Rilwayne001:Allah is the moon god and the black stone which muslims bow down to including muhammed was worship by the pagan. The stone is among the symbol of Allah. |
Rilwayne001:as a matter of fact your question is even wrong,descended of Joseph of David? Yes, Heli was the biology father of Mary. And heli was in the same line with NATHAN another of king David son. This statement is wrong "Are you aware that only solomon's descendants is expected to be the conduit through which jesus is to come?" Infacte Luke the not even add solomon because Joseph was not the biological father of Jesus, legally Jesus inherited the throne of David. |
Rilwayne001:the black stone. This is not a sarcasm .I know the post may have trouble you, but it was your brother who keep on insisting I proved Allah is a pagan,infacte the post I paste is not that bad comperd with the information I have now, in this life there is limit for everything, that why I paste the the comment that is more lightly than the one I have here.but if he keep on insisting then I will challenge him to open a thread let see who got tired. |
Rilwayne001:YES, however Mary was his biological mother. |
Rilwayne001:is there any lies in there? If you can refute just ONE I will removed the post.any one of your choice. |
Rilwayne001:so you don't know what it mean by legal right? Joseph did not have intercourse with Mary before Jesus was born, both the bible and quran agreed with this, but by the virtue of the marriage,legally Joseph adopt Jesus. |

Remember the assassinations. Rapping of slave girls, the adultery, slaughtering of the Jews, Christians, the polygamy and the war against all unbelievers, these are principles most holy. Y.–Yield your brain to the teaching of Quran only. No any other knowledge is necessary and remained ignorant. Z.–Zip up your month and closed your eyes to all the evil in Islam. You must not question or leave but believing and the garden shall be yours. That is summary of cult/paganism of Islam.

THE PAGAN SOURCES OF ISLAM
GENERAL
As Muhammad developed Islam he
borrowed from the other regional
religions present in the Mideast. These
religions include Judaism, Christianity,
Sabeanism, Zoroastrianism, and forms of
paganism. Judaism is the largest
contributor to Islam, followed by
Christianity, then followed by the various
pagan religions, and Muhammad’s mind.
These pagan borrowings constitute
significant facets of Islam and this article
details some of these pagan
contributions.
1) PAGANISM IN ISLAM
Islamic theology has some of its roots in
various pagan beliefs. Primary to Islam is
it's most holiest shrine: the Kaba.
THE KABA
The Kaba is now the most revered
sanctuary of Islam. It is located in Mecca.
Muslims throughout the world direct
their prayers toward the Kaba.
PHYSICAL SHAPE
The Kaba's shape is somewhat cubical. Of
note in the Kaba's structure is a black
rock built into the wall in its eastern
corner. The black rock's diameter is
about 12 inches. It is reddish black in
color, and has red and yellow particles.
The black rock is kissed during the
perambulation, (the circulation of the
Muslims around the Kaba). The Kaba is
about 50 feet high, and the walls are
about 40 feet long. The facade contains
the door, which starts at 7 feet off the
ground, and faces N.E.. To enter the
Kaba, a ladder must be used. Also built
in the eastern corner, is another stone
called "lucky". This stone is only touched,
not kissed.
KNOWN PAGAN HISTORY
Apart from Muslim myths, little is really
known about the history of the Kaba.
About 60 years before Christ, the Roman
historian Diodorus Siculus commented
that there was in Arabia a temple greatly
revered by the Arabs. It is probable that
he had the Kaba in mind. It was later
mentioned to have existed in the 2nd
century; Ptolemy, the geographer
mentions it in his work, calling it the
'macoraba'. The Kaba was a sanctuary
dedicated to one or more pagan deities.
The accounts of the campaigns of Abraha
note that it was a place of pagan worship
in the 6th century. Information on the
distribution of the offices among the sons
of Kusayy show that the worship of the
sanctuary had developed into a
regulated cult several generations before
Muhammad.
One historian (Hurgronjes) said that
sacred worship may have developed
around the area because the Zamzam
spring was found in this waterless place.
Pre-Islamic history tells us that many
Arabian tribes were stone worshippers.
This is also mentioned in Sahih al-
Bukhari, Vol 5, #661. The Old Testament
even talks about Mideast pagan groups
that worshipped stones. Muhammad
incorporated the Kaba's paganistic roots
into Islam to give the Muslims a sense of
identity, legitimacy, and uniqueness. He
also wanted to ease the Arab's strain of
moving from paganism to Islam, by
continuing the practices of their fathers.
PAGAN GODS AND RITUALS
There were 360 idols around the Kaba.
The pilgrimages to the Kaba were all
pagan pilgrimages, the ritual processions
around the Kaba were part of pagan
beliefs and custom, the white robes worn
by the pilgrims were from pagan faiths,
the veneration of the Kaba and black
stone are derived from pagan rituals and
beliefs. Pagans called out the names of
their pagan gods as they circled the
Kaba, today, Muslims call out Allah's
name. Pagans ran between the nearby
hills, Muhammad authorized Muslims to
do that in the Quran, and probably ran
between the hills himself.
The chief pagan god worshipped there
was Hubal, who could be called the god
of Mecca and of the Kaba. Hubal is not
mentioned in the Quran. The goddesses
al-Lat, al-Uzza, and Manat were also
worshipped there and are mentioned in
the Quran.
It is thought that the Kaba was originally
set up for astral worship. Golden suns
and moons are repeatedly mentioned as
the votive gifts. Some pagans regarded
the Kaba as a temple devoted to the sun,
moon, and 5 planets.
THE BLACK STONE
The black stone played a prominent role
in pagan worship. The pagans offered
animal sacrifices there. But the idol of
the black stone replaced the alter; on the
black stone they smeared the blood of
the sacrificed animals.
QURANIC MYTHS
Muhammad made up historical
references for the Kaba. Muhammad
claimed that Abraham and Ishmael laid
the foundations of the Kaba (Q. 2:127).
Muhammad claimed that God ordained
the Kaba as a sacred house (Q. 5:97).
Muhammad also claimed that it was the
first temple ever built for mankind (Q.
3:97).
Only Muhammad claimed that it was a
place built by Abraham. In looking in the
O.T., we find no mention of Abraham
traveling to Mecca to build a house of
worship.
Further, the late Taha Hussein, one of
the most famous Egyptian professors of
Arabic literature said that the Islamic
myth of Abraham building the Kaba
came into vogue just before the rise of
Islam. He comments:
"The case of this episode is very obvious
because it is of recent date, and came
into vogue just before the rise of Islam.
Islam exploited it for religious reasons".
Quoted in 'Mizar al-Islam' by Anwar al-
Jundi.
THEOLOGICAL PROBLEMS
Every man living in Mecca before and
during Muhammad's life had some
relationship with the Kaba. If the Kaba
was the house of God, why did
Muhammad order his followers to face
Jerusalem? Muhammad's 'revelation' in
the Quran says that when Allah had
Muhammad change prayer directions, it
was a test of the Muslims. This sounds
like a lame excuse on Muhammad's part.
What's the test? Face another direction?
That does not appear to be such an
incredible challenge!
Probably the real answer is that through
his early contacts with Christians and
Jews, Muhammad knew that their faiths,
centered in Jerusalem, where
monotheistic. Muhammad abhorred
polytheistic worship, consequently he
aligned himself with faiths that he
believed were from the true God. He
selected Jerusalem as the direction of
prayer. He hoped that the Jews would
receive him as a prophet.
About a year and a half after the
migration to Medina, after the Jews had
thoroughly rejected him, he turned the
direction of prayer to Mecca - the center
of pagan worship in the Arabian
peninsula (Q. 2:144). Just as he had
compromised with the pagan idol
worshippers in Mecca, by sanctioning
and worshipping the pagan goddesses
Lat, Uzza, and Manat, so now he hoped
to gain favor with the pagan Arab tribes
that worshipped at the Kaba in Mecca.
He authenticated the pagan focus of
attention.
After Muhammad took Mecca, he
cleansed the Kaba. Inside the Kaba were
many representations of the prophets.
When his men began to cleanse the
Kaba, and wash out the representations,
Muhammad placed his hands on the
pictures of Jesus and Mary, and said
"Wash out all except what is below my
hands". Again, Muhammad went against
his own principles, and sanctioned his
definition of idolatry.
Muhammad then sanctioned the pagan
rituals concerning the Kaba, i.e. kissing
the black stone, touching the Kaba,
circling the structure, running between
the two hills, etc. Later, Umar said to the
black stone "I know that you are a stone,
that neither helps nor hurts, and if the
messenger of god had not kissed you, I
would not kiss you". (Sahih al-Bukhari,
volume 2, #667). But then he kissed the
stone. Like Umar, many other Muslims
follow the prophet in their practice of
veneration of a pagan idol.for more visit here.
