Rilwayne001:I guess you didn't see this : Malaysian newspaper Utusan Malaysia was duped by a fake news story claiming a Catholic priest converted to Islam after being in a coma for more than a year. Utusan Malaysia published a story about the fake news, which originated from a satire story on World News Daily’s website. World News Daily’s Oct. 10 story had claimed an 87-year-old Spanish priest living in Indonesia “has woken up from a 17 month long coma” and “converted himself to Islam after the man claims Allah spoke to him and showed him ‘the beauty of the heavens.'” The report claimed the priest had a cardiac arrest on the roof of his church, fell off the roof, and woke up with no spinal injury. World News Daily Report identifies itself as “an American Jewish Zionist newspaper based in Tel Aviv and dedicated on covering biblical archeology news and other mysteries around the Globe.” The site has a disclaimer admitting it is a satire site. “All news articles contained within worldnewsdailyreport.co are fiction, and presumably fake news,” the site admits. Utusan Malaysia ‘s Oct. 12 story on the fake news has been unpublished and Utusan published an apology, the Malaysian Star reported. The apology reads, according to Asia One: “A report taken from the World News Daily Report regarding a catholic priest from Spain, Eduardo Vincenzo Maria Gomez, 87, converting to Islam after 17 months in a coma is untrue. Utusan apologises for any inconvenience and confusion following the publication of news emanating from the site.”http://www.imediaethics.org/malaysian-newspaper-hoaxed-priest-didnt-convert-to-islam-after-coma/ Funny people |

raphieMontella: People see what they want to justify their position with. If you are out looking for error that is what you will see everywhere and if you are out in search of truth that is what you will see. You seem to think people more knowledgeable than you have not embarked on these searches? They have and it ended up drawing them closer to God and Jesus so you can keep digging for all the errors you seek while we keep on with the truth. |

analice107: Thank you, much appreciated. I would add that the article in question raises the salient point as to what informed Helena, Constantine’s mother, that the site in question was the actual place Jesus died and was buried, that is the question that concerns us. The present site in the Old walled city of Jerusalem has been the shared responsibility of all the different denominations of Christianity. Somebody asked how come King Abdullah of Jordan had given such a large donation to the restoration, it is largely because the site is holy to both Muslims and Christians, but there is also a more mundane reason. Due to bitter in-fighting between different Christian sects over church responsibilities, the keys to the gate of the church have been handed over to ….you guessed it, a Muslim family since the middle of the 12th century. |

Sarassin: Now picture this....2 of the biggest religions worldwide Christian and Islam and one of the biggest Archeological locations for Christianity has its keys in the hand of Muslims which means that the chances of it being adulterated andnproven as false is extremely high...

raphieMontella:I hope you realize you are confirming that Paul and the rest of Christ's Followers lived? Yea, Rome has been in the business of eradicating Christianity from the inception When they couldn't kill it from without, they came in within. Answer truthfully, weren't you a Catholic? Catholicism and is still was Rome trying to kill Christianity within. Satan will still fail. The gates of hell shall not prevail against the Church. The church is not a Building btw. |

Rilwayne001:This thread has nothing to do with islam. Although someone pointed muslims to the fact that Jesus died and resurrected which the koran denies and muslims believe the koran by faith that Jesus did not die. So, am saying, Open a thread and mention me lets talk about all these there. Koran says Jesus did not die, that allah deceived the Jews to think they killed Jesus, and you believed the koran by faith, yet it didn't occur to you to ask by faith why allah rescued Jesus from the Jews. Open a thread so that you can tell me what the crime of Jesus was and why allah saved him but couldn't save muhammed. Go ahead. I wont answer you here anymore. Open a thread. |

Go ahead and post that koranic verse, hadith or sunah, proving allah spoke to someone else, and pls upload a video of muslims claiming allah spoke and gave them instructions or directions which tallies with their experiences. There are too many Videos of Muslims claiming Jesus appeared to them, saved them from dead, gave them directions, gave them information, healed them, etc. Lets go Rilwayne. |

See, when you look for political theories you would find many especially when you read any history book. Look at Nigeria for example, going by our history many theories of ethnic, military, and colonial conspiracy would come up. But one may just be reading it simply to know what happened and not why. It is the reader that determines is intended with the knowledge of history. That said, Jesus Christ existed as is reliably recorded in history, Good! So, I will use Scripture here: 'If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.' (1 Cor 15:19) You take about St James (Iakovos) brother of Jesus - mind you he never believed in Jesus until after Christ's ascension but he was matyred and also St Paul and St Peter (crucified, upside down at his request) many apostles killed and are still being killed for their faith in Jesus Christ. The significant thing you ignore is that these guys took vows of poverty and lives of absolute piety living as eunuchs for the hope in Jesus Christ and ended up brutally murdered. Did they have to live as ascetics? The Muslim Ottoman empire continued killing and conquering all early churches and christian regions, they took Jerusalem before the crusaders regained Jerusalem that was eventually lost again to Islam. Europe would have fallen to Islam were it not for the crusades but that's all politics. Anyone can be interested in politics and say Christianity is about world domination and power but even the pope cannot lie to any christian that that is what the tenets of Christianity are. Faith in Jesus Christ is spiritual and the spiritual aspect of the Church never left. Everyone would be judged whether Pope or pauper individually so politics concern who e concern. If they wanted Constantine to become a christian, what's wrong with that? If I say I want Buhari to become a christian, I'm sure muslims and atheists would come up with conspiracy theories about my motives, although it may be true that I may have ulterior motives but that's between me and God but Jesus Christ is for everyone who believes in Him. raphieMontella: 1 Like |
