1. Refer to my previous post
2. Suicide is a dirty act, that's not something you can find in the Holy Book.
It's in your Bible
Acts 1:18 New International Version (NIV)

18 (With the payment he received for his wickedness, Judas bought a field; there he fell headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines spilled out.
3. As taught by your bible contradicting him to be the only begotten son.

This is nigeria., 911 aint dat effective. Make sure your head didn't fall of while shaking it. Be warned it dangerous grin grin tongue
Suicide is a dirty act ... so it shouldn't be in the Bible wow. I guess a well fabricated, packaged book would have been better just like the Quran am I right?
let me let you in on some things.....the Bible (Torah) also recorded how Cain killed is Brother Abel (how holy is that?)
what about how Eve and Adam ate from the forbidden fruit (this is super holy isn't?)

What you don't get is, the Bible is record of human failings and fault hence why salvation is needed and provided By God through only one person Jesus (who for some reason had a miraculous virgin birth also in your Quran [which I believed was plagiarized by the way])..... I mean what so special about him (show off, am I right)?

I haven't seen any contradiction yet, if any post it up

Prophet Muhammad was not learned i.e can't read nor write with many evidence. From which are:
1.Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):

...

So tell me how an unlearned person can know what was just discovered in the 21st century with all exotic equipments that u will agree with me couldn't be gotten in the 19th century talk less of getting them about 1439 years ago and many more if not revealed to him.
Again go back and read my response to smoy
I think only a gullible person would see this and say "gosh what I've I been thinking...Quran is the word of God, look it describes the obvious as vaguely as it could."

Quran his God's revelation to Muhammad (saw)
Bible is partly apostle paul's hoodwinked book.

Probably you are nor aware that jesus knew nothing about Christianity in his lifetime. Bring forth your evidence if he knew.
Or Thomas warning which paul heeded not
Or that there is evidence of salt in the bible
Or that judas committed suicide not by hanging rather jumped to his death
Or jesus perform ablution
Or jesus observe salat
Or that jesus is a son of man and not God.
Let me pause here except u want more.
why stop there, list more

Quran is God's revelation to Muhammad - how did you come to this conclusion? because the Quran claims to be God's revelation? how convenient?

Jesus knew nothing about Christianity (absolutely bonkers to say if you ask me) but I'm guessing He knew about Islam?

Judas committed suicide by jumping - really and how did you come by this fact of history, let me guess the Quran says so?

Jesus is a son of man (I hate to say it but isn't that obvious), and not the son of God - again let me guess, God told Muhammad 600 years later

Judaism also predates xtianity,why shud a jew convert to xtianity?
Well thanks for stating the obvious. I would assume you know that the first Christians were Jews. Here's a fact, the disciples didn't call themselves Christians, it was rather society's perception that came up with the name.

the New testament is in continuation of the old, the fulfillment of the promise of the messiah (which some Jews are still waiting for and as a result not believing in who Jesus claimed himself to be, while some others, Messianic Jews believe he came already and was Jesus)

on the Contrast, The Quran is a book riddled with contradictions regarding how it relates to Christianity and Judaism. According to Islam, while Christians and Jews are people of the book, in the same token their books are corrupted. So those books are to be discarded and now everyone must subscribe to the new updated version by God via Muhammad (which is conveniently the last prophet).

may be it's just me, things don't add up

I thought god inspired both? Or you mean the validity of god's revelation is dependent on how earlier the revelation was released by god?
No, the question you need to ask is ..... If God (and I assume in this particular case is the same) inspired these two books that's clearly in contradiction, wouldn't that mean God's confused?

And Also right off the bat, how can anyone prove a book is inspired by God? what I am asking is not for proof but evidence to show validity.

logic, for a person that know nothing before now telling us the stages of human formation in the mothers belly in the desert of the Arabian peninsula of then where no meas of scientific advertisement to study, science has just yesteryear discover this phenomenal.

that is of embryology, and for geography the science just discovered the big bang of the creation of heath and galaxy few years ago but Qur'an has mention this over 1400 years ago.

how could he have know all this if he is the maker of the Qur'an? this can only be know by the creator who know the beginning and end i.e Allah(GOD) and then transmitted to Muhammad as revelations. these are among the miracles of the living witness called the Qur'an.
ok, I might be able to give you this one, but this still doesn't provide Validity for Islam. As we all know great thinkers such Plato Socrates, Hippocrates predate even the birth of Christ. These men were profound in their knowledge of the physical world and life, and science has built upon the works of these men.
Also there were schools, and books when Muhammad lived. Even though the body of of work of knowledge then was not as immense as we have it in recent times, people were not less intelligent, words got around and people traveled up and about.

Adam, Abraham, Noah, Moses, Jesus, Mohammed etc were all Muslim i.e people that submitted to the will of God. Christianity was never a religion of Christ.
You are dancing around the question by applying a vague term that doesn't apply here.

A Muslim is one who submits to God by definition, but how does that provide evidence for the validity of Islam?

People submit to all various sorts of higher power, by definition they would be Muslims too.

"Submission" isn't evidence for the validity of Islam.

The question is what makes the Quran the infallible word of God, thereby making Islam the right path?

Christianity predates Islam by a big stretch, If the witnesses when Jesus was on earth wrote their accounts approximately 600 years prior to even the Birth of Muhammad......why should a Christian convert to Islam?

Logically speaking isn't it wise to trust a person's immediate brother or friend's account about that person's life over some distant future relative or non relative?

the points dint go right pass me trust me i understood most of what you said but disagreed a little bit with some of things you said thats all. i love the idea of empowering women but comming back to issue the op raised, one thing am sure about is by the time we are done with marriage as an institution given the demands that are placed on it in the modern society and given what is to be expected in the future it will become practically useless. and if thats what will make some people happy then they should go for it. marriage wasn't meant to this complex as the role of the partners is clearly defined but its slowly becoming rocket science to run a family this days.
It's OK, we all have our opinions, sometimes we agree, sometimes we don't. And I see that you understand that.

There are women who want the traditional marriage and there are the ones who think that's what they want until they get in it and discover it isn't. There are those who are very ambitious (moving and shaking out the home) but also looking for an ambitious man who will lead inside the home.

Also let's not act like the marriages from the past were ideal. In many cases they were highly dysfunctional because of the power imbalance. "Absolute power corrupts"
In many cases men are usually the ones threatened when their woman is up and doing. But some Men are secured in who they are and what they have to offer continue to push and set the bar for their women professionally emotionally and mentally and the woman is in awe of such masculine energy.

you said today women enlist into the military protecting men women and children but i hope you know the entry requirements was reduced and a special quota system created before they even had a chance. what i would have love to see was for the entry requirement to remain unchanged since afterall we are all equal.
I hate to say it but the point just went right past you.

Warfare today is not about how heavy your sword is or how good you can ride a horse swinging through the battlefield. Warfare is technology, the brilliant strategists working on the most effective way of taking out enemies with minimal loss.
Again Women aren't built like men but trust me a well trained female soldier doesn't need to physically engage you to take you out.

Yes, men and women are equal, boys and girls are equal yet different in a way and even more so individually but we are made of the same material, and our wants and needs can narrowed down to almost the same thing.

Your parents are not superior to you neither are you to them, same with your boss/colleagues and you. Your placement in life is just different than theirs.

Women were created for childbirth, child rearing and tending to her family. That's about it. Any other duty society places on them is simply a gross misunderstanding of their nature and an ignorant attempt to fit them into a role they aren't naturally suited for. Their behavioral traits is proof. They are very emotional beings. They are hardly logical. They are also very empathic and compassionate. These are qualities you need if you are going to successfully raise a child.

Women are more interested in people than things or abstract concepts. They weren't built to be strong or fast like men are. Just strong enough and fast enough to not be killed in confrontations with dangerous situations. Every typical behavior of women is predicated on her maternal instincts. From her interest in men to what gives her the most meaning. It might shock you to know that women were more happy in ancient, medieval and Victorian times than they currently are now that they've been pushed into the workforce. Lots of studies have been done to prove this.

Human civilization is over 5000 years and within these vast period of time, women have only been doing one thing: Raising children and tending to the home. And society has progressed. There haven't been issues at the level of the family, the sort that we are having today. Women only started doing other stuff roughly 40 years ago, and look at how society is already crumbling. The foundation of the family is weakened because kids are raised in homes where they don't have mothers anymore. What they have are just two fathers who hardly have time for them. Boys are beginning to lose their masculinity because what's the point of masculinity when there is no longer any femininity? Women are being told that they are equal to men and must strive to compete with men in the work force, and after striving and competing and winning, they end up sad and lonely because this really isn't what they want. What they want is a family and kids and emotional security from their husbands, and to invest all their time tending to their family. You guys look at the ancient and medieval cultures and you think they were stupid because they relegated women to certain duties. They might have been stupid in terms of scientific matters, which by and large was an accumulative process, but they weren't stupid in creating a sustainable society, which they did for long periods of time.
At the end of the day, and as we speak, you are a male speaking for women. Logic tells me that when I need answers to certain questions the source of the answers is important. I won't ask an Anglo Saxon about what it's like to be Navajo American, in the same way, would it be wise or foolish to take your opinion in this matter as truth despite the glaring course the world on.

Yes women are designed to carry and nurture their babies, yes they are usually weaker than men in physical strength. these are obvious biological fact about the Human Anatomy
We also know that mentally the female brain is Equally capable as that of the male's.

one of the traits of living organisms is adaptability.
the obvious sexual dysmorphism that exists in the human species was suited for the "traditional" family setting (wife stays home tends after children, Husband hunts and protects) at a time when Physical strength was needed to get by in the world.

contrary to what many shallow thinkers might think, neither our sexual organs nor sexual hormones is the most important attribute we have as Humans, our brain is. And see, through it's application we have been able to do the imaginable (some people more than others anyway).

in today's world there's still survival of the fittest........though not physically but mentally. The successful ones are the ones applying their Brains day in day out. The function of the brain doesn't care about the genital, or muscle mass or shape of its container. Today we have women enlisted in the Military across the world protecting men, other women, and children. This can be said for almost all works of life.

Masculinity isn't tied to a male's ability to subjugate or relegate it's female counterpart. The problem is not with the female it is the male who has refused to evolve and take its role as a leader, always looking in the rear view mirror wanting to go back to the simpler days, and now is confused on what to do moving forward.

Muslims believe the Quran to be the greatest book ever written, and that it is also the infallible word of God.

It's the responsibility of a woman to take care of the kids and tend to most of the house chores because that's what she's created for. Enough of this equality/switching of roles nonsense. Most women naturally want to take care of children. Most women naturally want to tend to the needs of their husbands. I'm not supporting over labouring a woman with duties or not considering how stressful certain home duties can be. But the fact remains that these things are her duties and she should do them without complain. Just the same way a man should provide for the family and offer protection & emotional security to his wife as well as shower her with affection and care without complain.

Men have been going to wars and dying in their millions for thousands of years and no man has complained. Men have been doing the dangerous jobs and losing fingers and limbs for thousands of years and no man has complained. I don't see why women should complain because of ordinary house chores.
What a load of horse-crap. I want to address this part of your first statement "....because that's what she's created for."

you are making a claim that the purpose for the existence of the female species is to do that which you've made mention of in the part preceding the quoted phrase above.

What is your evidence to back that up? because you sound as though you were present at the brainstorming meeting that came up with the fantastic idea of making females for the purpose of doing house chores, while men go off and fight wars that was likely started by WOMEN? hmm something to think about

or just maybe (just a thought) your upbringing has conditioned your mind to think women were "CREATED" for whatever it is you make up up-there, or just some internet BS you've read at some point and have decided to take on and continue to propagate to support your opinion.

The chances of her having a successful relationship as an adult will be slim because of the psychological damage which would also translate to the physical.

The message was 'past' across. That's all that matters.

Liberals are so bitter. Trump's first year in office has overseen the strongest American Economy in recent history.

The stock market is at an all time high, gaining over $3 trillion since he took office.

Unemployment is at its lowest among blacks, women.

People are getting pay rises because of the biggest Tax cuts in American history.

Trump has more women in government than all democratic president including Obama and Clinton.

ISIS has been diminished.

North Korea is now mellow and are ready to talk.

Democrats loathe this accomplishments so much that to slow him down, they have to invent a government shutdown because of something not related to the Budget bill in contention.

Democrats are putting illegal immigrants over US citizens because of votes.

President DONALD J Trump is making America and the world great again and he will be doing so for the next 7years.

Happy Anniversary DT!
You must be higher than a kite. Trump will be lucky to finish his first term [FBI investigation into collusion with Russia]. People picking on his grammar is just a reaction to things that goes much deeper.
Trump is a nationalist, it is a fallacy to think Trump will make the world great again, when his mantra "make America great again" unless you're really mentally challenged to comprehend his actions ever since he became president.
The Economy is an overhang of Obama's administration. To think otherwise is simply dishonesty.
If I may ask you, why care what Americans think about their president may be you need to start taking care of the business in your own backyard.

On the other hand, you are the one that seem to be propagating silence of rape victim. By quoting even the stats to justify the woman's foolishness shows you want those rapists to always go Scot free.

Seriously we should be creating awareness for them to always speak out whenever they fall victim. They shouldn't be ashamed for anything as long as the want justice. It is only when they don't want justice that they should reluctant. They shouldn't be afraid to walk up to the police station to report, whether or not they will take action, they should report. Or better yet they should get a human right lawyer or even any trustworthy lawyer. There should be no reason for any delay In reporting because it's more like one is giving the rapist the liberty to walk Scot free.

And besides don't you think if victim are unwilling to talk, it is more like they are giving the rapists the audacity to continue their despicable act since they know none of the victims will talk? Anybody can fall victim. Even daughters or family of the victims.

Being ashamed to talk should not be an excuse for the woman's foolish to wait two weeks for her husband to return before reporting. Infact if the story was actually true, that two weeks can render it false.



Ok
if that's what you got from the post. Wow!!

you want the victims to report as soon as possible, but if they don't and lets say it did actually happen.....calling the victim foolish works according to your logic, it helps them to come out and report to the police. And two weeks renders the allegation false?

being ashamed is not an excuse for you......but don't come here to start dictating how someone reacts and feels after going through a traumatizing experience. For someone who just had their space invaded, they should be given the opportunity to be comfortable to open up and believe them and follow through with an investigation.

the opposite of what you have done here. That how you get them to talk. The stats is the reality but if you like you can choose to live in an alternate reality where insulting the alleged victim right off the bat is the best way to combat rape.

stop contradicting yourself. At first you said "but you don't just rape a married woman you've known forever." which is false by the way, ignorance is a choice in the 21st century. Most females are sexually molested and assaulted by a known person. starting with minors to adults

and then you later said "So you never seen a case of a boyfriend raping the girlfriend?" - completely agree a boyfriend can rape his girlfriend, a husband his wife as well.

It is indeed easier to point fingers when you are not in a situation, however it's not in this case. You can't expect me to keep mute after falling victim of armed robbery, can you? Or even if she was too ashamed to walk up to a police station, are we going to say she doesn't have a relative or Atleast a friend that she can relay the story to? Is her husband the only person she can tell such a thing?

Think about it, for good two weeks, she didn't tell anyone, and you really think she is a victim?
I'll give you stats real quick. just in the UK

"83 per cent of women who had been raped or sexually assaulted failed to report it to police, 29 per cent did not even tell friends or family what had happened. Overall about half said they would be too embarrassed or ashamed of the incident to admit it but two-thirds said they would hesitate because of low conviction rates."

this is a country where law enforcement and court system works relatively better than Nigeria's and you have these astronomical numbers

Bro ask yourself.......are you part of the group propagating the silence of victims because they know even when they report their case they won't be believed?
