Thank you Habib! I will do my best to set my biases (though not opinions!) aside and pray that the folks in here can do so as well! As a Christian I can only honestly look to find the truth because Jesus IS truth.

Hello Ron,

Thanks for joining the forum.

Just to make you aware, missionary posts (posts promoting any religion other than Islam) are not allowed and may even get you banned. If you are here to make a sincere attempt to understand Islam, then discussions are welcomed. Any intention or hidden agendas to do otherwise will not be accepted.

Enjoy your stay.

Thank you charisma. I guess I missed that rule (or maybe am still a little unclear about what "missionary post" means). I'm guessing that doesn't apply to simply replying to someone who posts a post on the Bible?
Also I don't think there is a way for me to edit my posts, is there?
I noticed that several of my posts are awaiting moderation and I am now wondering if this is why, though it wouldn't apply to all those that are in limbo. Thank you.
Ron
