    and other 21st century nonsense.

    The two are mutually exclusive in other words, we knew it, but thanks for the confirmation.

    there's a lot of incentives in Islam that discourage it.

    Baloney, Islam orders you to make war on peaceful people and enslave them, how could it possibly discourage it ??

    The scholars mention a
    few reasons
    why it wasn't banned outright but this is not a subject that I know much about.

    The chief reason being Muslims' aversion to work, why kill the goose that lays the golden eggs. Jizya extortion completes islamic economics.

    The caliphs attacked neighbors so that the word of Allah may be utmost.

    What a puerile mindset!

    Just a few points. If someone wants to come up with a claim (i.e. this verse has been abrogated), he has to come with a reliable proof also.

     

    The Taliban are khawrij (one of the 72 sects of the hell fire) also called the Kallaabun-Naar (dogs of the hell fire) and the 'state' they founded in Afghanistan cannot be considered an Islamic state.

     

    No modern nation in this world truly rules by the shariica as the rightly guided Caliphs did.
    However, the closest state is Saudi Arabia which at least implements the shariah as it's law
    .

    ...and is the Saudi system something to write home about ?. The shariica of the rightly guided caliphs would make the current Saudi system look like a Jeffersonian democracy by contrast, at least now the west and the international media keeps them in check. the caliphs owned slaves and regularly assaulted them and it was perfectly legal. are you OK with that ?. The caliphs would attack their non Muslims neighbors and take their women as sex slaves, again Xalaal, can you accept that today ?

     

    Be careful what you wish for, the sharia was set for a different age when basic notions of human rights and dignity didn't exist. we are in the 21st century.

    ^^ It is not much of a mystery to see your opinions and criticism of Islam originate from. It is all in the name, Hobbesian_brute is it?

    :confused: i just picked that name as joke, don't read too much into a moniker.

    You parade around the forum as if you are an emancipated intellectual preaching to a herd of unfortunate, stupefied, brainwashed peasants who need rescuing from Islam. But nothing could be further from the truth. There is nothing logical or rational about your opinions, it is nothing more than a tedious repetitions of the lies propagated by a wacky and insane coalition of Christians zealots, racists bigots, atheists and recently enlightened Muslims like yourself.

    How did i parade around this forum ? i have only posted on this particular topic at length since i joined. your entitled to your opinions if you think am not rational or logical. I am also entitled to mine, so don't feel threatened when i exercise them.

    Let me state from the outset, there is nothing wrong with critiquing Islam
    but the criticisms have be valid and constructive and not a placket condemnation of Islam and muslims.

    Good for you.

    So my advice to you Hobbesian_ brute,
    it takes a lot more than reading view books and blogs to be rational and logical
    , you need to stop with these repetitive slogans and anti Islam smears and to start thinking for yourself. We will then take your criticisms of Islam seriously.

    I agree. :D

    I like when first year uni kids come with their book one confused atheism philosophy to SOL
    thinking they have something new and tangible story to tell us.

    corrections here, i finished uni ages ago, not an atheist, Naipaul is novelist not philosopher.

    I like the way you are
    backtracking
    from the notion of "Islam is in decline" to "yeah its not in decline" population wise at least, not realising the next world wars will be about three things, water, energy, and
    population.
    look at china, it's becoming "the" world's first superpower" thanks to its economic growth and
    population power
    . while the west is dying of old age, muslims are experiencing a young population explosion which will be a plus for future developments.

    Muslims are not china, they don't have the industry, skills and work ethic. one billion beggars will still be one billion beggars.:cool:

    oh yeah, give us a break man, don't insult our intelligence, without US and Nato's logistical, financial, and moral support, Israel wouldn't last a week, just read what the western intellectuals wrote about the 2006 war with Hezbollah and I believe your too young or too naive to read about the 1973 arab war, I would advice you to read Kissinger's biography where you'll learn
    who won the war for Israel
    .

    israel and nato have no connection. nice job sidetracking the debate.


  5. Sorry i could not respond to you as i have the same issue as you.:)

     

    You have to understand apologists have 2 classic excuses for islamic failure:

     

    1. blame western conspiracies for their shortcomings and incompetence.

     

    2. claim islamists didn't have enough time at the helm.

     

    you see AS didn't have enough time to enact the islamic utopia envisioned by muslims because infidels plotted their downfall and jewish controlled media besmirched their good name.:D

     

    These are not rational or serious people.


  6. your not even a real Muslim but what V.S Naipaul referred to as " converted peoples ". your too uppity for a non Arab Muslim, pump your brakes.

     

    Islam can be the fastest growing and largest population, but that doesn't equal progress, strength or prosperity, its overpopulation as consequence of their backwardness and ignorance of contraception. if tiny israel of 7 million keeps at bay close to half a billion arabs, that shows numerical superiority amounts to nothing.

     

    Islam is salvation, death is life, war is peace, poverty is prosperity; what is wrong with these lines ?? :cool:
