What are you talking about? Enough with the smoke screens. I called you out for making your opinion appear as a fact (which you do quite a bit of) and now you're dodging ...this is just fluff to divert from the fact you are in the wrong here.

It means that, unlike you, I know many Muslims personally, and we talk about religion. You and "Dawnling" made up a bunch of shit and got caught.


Bzzzz!! Thank you for playing.

Have you asked the people that you know about the idea
of an all-Islam planet?

How do you know that I don't know (m)any muslims? How do you know that perhaps I'm not muslim? I'm sure muslims are coming in waves to Utah which of course makes you a self-appointed expert

Yeah that and that gives you a right to generalize and speak on behalf of all muslims

COPY AND PASTE exactly where I made up a bunch shit. I don't expect you do this but it will prove that you are liar. Like always you're incapable of understanding what is being said to you so divert from what's being discussed. All I did was call you out for making a inaccurate statement that you're unable to backup and you can't handle it.

And I've already broken my new year's resolution: not to engage with intellectually challenged people on message boards

Well, I know many Muslims and a few of them are scholars. It turns out, the dogma is not that the world will be a Muslim world but that the world will be transformed into a sinless world but only by Allah. Specifically I believe the Quran states that the World will one day follow Islamic ideals but it's not clear whether Sharia will be brought to bear. Many believe it will but the majority it would seem does not.

you are right Eman is a fool. he has forgotten, or maybe never read Jesus' teachings. he comes across as blasphemous as well

personally, i think he is faking

The religion of "peace" is based on a holy book that commands its readers to kill the infidel and that if you don't you burn forever as a coward.
i would disagree. these are the ones who get in the media. the media is sensationalistic. leaders have politicized Islam. i would be very interested to see how many common people agree with slaughtering Christians and Jews

the muslims i know are unbelievably moderate. i was really surprised. i had based my knowledge previously on the crap i saw in the media. foolish mistake. they have never once tried to convert me. they answered the question i asked, and didnt add anything. they fully respected my Christianity

But Islam the notion of following Islamic ideals is misleading. If someone is a good and observant Christian or Jew they're considered to have submitted to god's will [the definition of Islam and Muslim]. That's actually a better story than Revelations.
