Erm....no lol Muslims rock as they have the true faith.

 

[sevgi]

there are two types of knowledge..that of the world which eg, science attempts to explain; and true knowledge, also of the world which islam tries to xplain...the first, however, is illuminated by the light of the latter...

sort of like the sun and the moon...the moon gets its light from the sun due to its reflective or wateva characteristics...

hope that makes sense...

The word agnostic comes from the Greek 'a' (without) and 'gnosis' (knowledge).

Greetings,

You're quite right. When asked "Does god exist?" an agnostic will say "I don't know".

I think agnosticism is a much easier position to defend than atheism, my own belief.

Incidentally, one can be an agnostic about any question; it's just that most people associate the word with the question of god's existence.

Greetings,

so where does the word "Athiest" come from?

It's also from Greek, and it uses one of the same roots as 'agnostic' - 'a' meaning 'without'.

The other part comes from the Greek word 'theos' meaning 'god', which is used as a root in words describing many faith-based persuasions. A theist is someone who believes in god; an atheist is someone who doesn't. A monotheist believes in one god, and a polytheist believes in many gods. A pantheist believes that everything is god, and theology is the study of god(s).

Of course, every religion says that. Just another part of the belief system.

no really its the true faith


You try reading the Quran without being moved, no really, try it (you must understand arabic in order to do this)

But every religion doesn't have proof

 

[IbnAbdulHakim]

But every religion doesn't have proof

we already been through this, he doesnt accept that our brilliant illiterate prophet saws obtained the Quran through divine ways and he doesnt accept that what happened 1400 years ago is being recently proven to be true...

You are too cute. you will not answer me straight forward question until I answer loaded trick question. That way you can avoid answering my question. Why, because you have no answer.
