How do you even dare to make any assumption about God if you accept yourself to be that insignificant?
I make no assumption of god, what god has put in his book is what I say.

he is so great that we are not even worth of thinking about him
No you misunderstand me, I mean we are not worth QUESTIONING HIS STATUS but we know about him for sure what he has said about him.
And it looks like there is some confusion here, we should not question what we don't know about him however what happens here on earth we can attempt to interpret, like when a disaster happens we must think. Is this a trial? Or punishment? or is it something different all together? However regardless of the conclusion we must understand that what is correct in what we conclude is because of god and the mistakes are ours.

You once again ignore my more lengthy post proto LOL... Heres the link if you are too afraid to look: http://www.islam-guide.com/frm-ch1-1-a.htm
Or just look 5 posts on top. I see you are bordering on the desperate with your current responses, leaning heavily on sarcasm...

Is my humble opinion acknowledging my limited capacity is that the most a human can acquire in this life is tranquility and freedom from fear which can be acquired through knowledge, friendship, living a virtuous and temperate life while enjoying the simple pleasure found in a modest life.
Thats another topic all together in which I agree with you to a high degree

Police say Bismarck man arrested after getting stuck in window

Police say Bismarck man arrested after getting stuck in window

BISMARCK, N.D. - Police say a man who tried to break into a building was arrested after he got stuck.

William Jones, 38, of Bismarck, is suspected of trying to break into the Bismarck Motor Hotel early Friday morning, police said.

Police Lt. Dan Donlin said Jones had been evicted from the hotel for owing back rent, then left the building and came back intoxicated several hours later.

Donlin said the man tried to break into the building through a window, but got stuck in the process. Two witnesses saw him struggling to get free and called police. Donlin said Jones was arrested at 2:43 a.m. in a grouping of trees near the hotel.

Assistant Burleigh County State's Attorney Tyrone Turner said Jones is charged with criminal trespass, a Class A misdemeanor.

Man Swallows Key, Locksmith Uses X-Ray

Man Swallows Key, Locksmith Uses X-Ray

NORTH PLATTE, Neb. - Arthur Richardson thought he'd pull a prank and pretend to swallow a friend's truck key. Unfortunately, Wednesday's prank backfired when Richardson plopped the key in his mouth and gravity took over.
Richardson went to a doctor Thursday, who X-rayed his stomach and got a clear picture of the key. The doctor said the key posed no danger, but Richardson's friend needed to use his truck.

So Richardson and his friend took the X-rays to a locksmith, who used the pictures to fashion a new key. And it worked in the truck.

John Somers, owner of Al's Lock and Safe, said he'd never made a key before from the image of an X-ray.

"I have done all sorts of lock work, I've done all sorts of safe work," Somers said. "This is truly a first in my career."

Somers said he didn't have any immediate plans to set price rates for X-ray keys, but it's something he might consider.
Stay tuned for more stuff
 
And thats my point if humans were created by a perfect being who can in no way make a mistake humans should be perfect.
As the bible says (I don`t know what`s written in other holy books), humans were, at the begining of their creation, perfect (like when a child is born, perfect and innocent), but they also were given freedom (free will) to chose whether they want to be good or bad and probably that`s why most humans lost their innocence (like a child after 40 years).
Proto said:
He wasn't exactly saying that the universe has no purpose at all. He was saying that the universe can perfectly exist without a purpose (hence, it is meaningless, since it adds no value to anything, except for premade ethics :p)
Boltzmann said:
The universe has no purpose at all – it all boils down to the laws of physics that have no underlying “why” to them.
Boltzmann said:
since the universe has no purpose, there's no "why" to answer
If these don`t mean that he was saying that the universe hasn`t got a purpose, I don`t know what does.
 
No you misunderstand me, I mean we are not worth QUESTIONING HIS STATUS but we know about him for sure what he has said about him.
Oh yeah.... I forgot about T3H BOOK (tm) which has T3H ANSWERS.... how could I forget about it... I mean a book wrote by who knows who has actually more worth than the verified and proofed work of countless generations. Sorry, I was at fault.

Don't worry. Long before you came to this forums, there was this another guy who made me read very lenghty articles about the islam, made me do a lenghty research (for my reply) about how faulty serious history about Jesus is... and at the end he just said something about the lines of "it is all his will"... ignoring everything I did. I swear I am not going through that again, since you seem to be happy with your book alone :p

If you humans at the beginning perfect they would have always chosen to to good. If Adam and Eve would have being perfect they would have chosen not to eat the apple. A being can be perfect in all ways and still have free will. The example about a child being born is not that great. Children are born with many genetic defects, diseases, etc.

At least we agree on that. The only difference is the path to achieve such life.
 
The example about a child being born is not that great. Children are born with many genetic defects, diseases, etc.
Uhh... I meant spiritulally/moraly perfect (a 3 year old child just wants to play, not to kill or to steal) not genentically perfect. I guess you misunderstood me.
If Adam and Eve would have being perfect they would have chosen not to eat the apple.
... I guess you`re right (I am not sarcastic). I can`t remember quite well if humans were perfect or near-perfect... I guess humans weren`t perfect, but almost perfect, and it was their job to attain perfection (and in the end they failed)... I should read the Bible more often, as I don`t remember quite clearly what it was written about the begining of humans.
I mean a book wrote by who knows who has actually more worth than the verified and proofed work of countless generations. Sorry, I was at fault.
Then I guess historians shouldn`t consider books/documents writen by people long ago as proof of what happened. This way, we wouldn`t even know clearly what it was in the Midle Ages (it would have been like what we know about what happend in the Prehistoric era). I agree to the fact that you can`t say it`s totaly corect without proof, but I don`t agree that it shouldn`t even be taken in cosideration as you suggest.

I am not questioning the validity of old documents here. I am questioning tehy being more important than the factual data we can get NOW, HERE, with technology that produces better observations that whatever our ancestors that wrote those books might have had eg: you know better that a thunder or a flood are not signs of the anger of God, but rather well studied metheorological phenomena... not to mention that the Bible cannot really be considered as a serious historical source.
 
I would like to apologize guys. It seems that this was only a model . Related to "If anyone believes, then they would believe this"

I really don't know what to say. It was obvious this was a fake pic, but the thing is, why would anybody make up something like that? Whoever started this rumour suggested Allah has done something He hasn't.. and I can't think of how big a fault that is. Making people aware is okay, but scaring them with fake stories for absolutely no purpose is absolutely outrageous and unacceptable. May Allah forgive whoever has done this, as long as they know they had done wrong. I think posting an article which could be suspicious, even if it was 1% suspicious, is completely unnecessary, regarding the number of people who are going to read it and how much influence it will have on them
and maybe whoever who did this did so to defame the Muslim Community

I think humans according to the Bible were made in the image of God and I dont believe it states they were perfect as God.

My opinion is that when we died we will find out who was right. If I am wrong which I believe I am not and there is a God and there is a heaven and hell at least I am pretty sure that most of humanity will join me in hell.

On the subject of the girl turning to animal when you ever see something in the internet be very skeptical most of the internet is filled with junk.

Row over Indonesia transvestite show
A transvestite beauty pageant in Indonesia was the scene of an unusual clash on Sunday when it was interrupted by a hardline Islamic group. Members of the Islamic Defenders' Front (FPI) barged into a club where the Miss Waria 2005 contest was taking place.

FPI leader Soleh Mahmud said: "Before Allah punishes us with a second tsunami here in Jakarta, let us ask the police to disperse this event."

After a delay the contest continued, and was won by PR worker Olivia.

He won $250 and a return air ticket to Thailand, where he will compete in an international transvestite contest next year.

Contest organiser Megi Megawati said contestants were traumatised by the raid, after about 10 FPI members dressed in white tunics and prayer caps entered the nightclub towards the end of the contest.

Transvestites make regular appearances on Indonesian TV, and the country is generally tolerant of the so-called "waria" - a combination of the Indonesian words for male and female.

But the FPI - which is better known for attacking bars and other venues considered un-Islamic - wants to end such public shows.

"Transvestites should not be made into a role model," said FPI member Alawi Usman. "We are worried it could influence our children," he told the Associated Press.

http://watleyreview.com/2005/062105-1.htmlFamily Altered Photo of Missing Child to Get More Help

Charges may be filed against a family which manipulated photos of their missing daughter to spur rescue efforts, according to Texas officials.

"It has become apparent that this family has provided false information to law enforcement and to the media for the purpose of extorting a greater level of assistance in the search for Francine Keyes," said Texas governor Rick Perry. "I can only say that this news is deeply disturbing to all of us, and that we are not ruling out the possibility of legal action."

Francine Keyes, age 11, went missing from a camping trip with family friends on June 12 in Big Bend National Park. Thousands of law enforcement officers and volunteers spent days combing the park and surrounding regions. The girl was located unharmed on Friday June 17 in the company of an unemployed drifted named Gregory Stokes, who has been arrested and charged with aggravated kidnapping. The initial euphoria of the find, however, was soon offset when the first television footage of the rescue hit the airwaves.

"At first I thought the kidnapper had dyed her hair, you know, to make her less easy to recognize," said Maria Baker, one of the volunteers who spent 50 hours last week searching. "Then I thought, wow, that week in the wilderness sure was rough on her. Then I saw a closeup, and I thought, man, did a bear get her too?"

It turns out that Francine's family had doctored the photo released to police and the media in order to make her "more appealing" and spur a wider rescue effort. In the picture, she is a perky, cute blonde girl somewhat resembling Lindsay Lohan.

"In actuality, Francine is neither perky nor blonde," said a grim-faced Perry. "In fact, her picture is mainly a testament to her father's skills with Photoshop."

Media networks are squirming, faced with the fact they cannot avoid airing pictures of the girl after the intensive media coverage of the search all last week.

"This is supposed to be the windfall time; the triumphant return of a photogenic kidnapping victim plays great with the 18-35 viewing audience, and can boost advertising revenues for months with follow-up stories on her return to normal life," said Stacy Umbridge, a producer at CNN. "For crying out loud. The girl's got a gap between her front teeth big enough to drive a car through."

The Keyes family has defended their actions, arguing that there are only five or six slots for widespread searches in a given TV season, and if they didn't give their daughter "every advantage" she wouldn't have made the cut.

"This season we've already had Natalie Holloway and Brennan Hawkins, two really high-profile cases with very appealing protagonists," said Alan Keyes, Francine's father. "Heck, Francine used to scare the cat whenever she smiled. What were we supposed to do?"

The state of Texas has grudgingly concluded that it cannot charge the Keyes family for the search and rescue effort, since Francine's disappearance was the result of an actual crime (unlike recent runaway bride Jennifer Wilbanks). However, CNN is considering filing a civil suit.

"Our viewership drops fifteen percent every time we show the real picture of this girl," said Umbridge. "I'm sorry, but CNN has journalistic standards, you know. At least put a wig on the poor girl."

Backyard explosion sends five to hospital

PELHAM - A flammable liquid accidentally thrown on an outdoor fireplace grill caused a backyard explosion that sent five people, including an 8-year-old boy, to the hospital, fire officials said. The injuries were not serious.

Officials say the group was gathered around the fireplace that blew apart outside a home on Friday night.

Most of the injuries were caused by flying debris and glass, officials said. The force of the explosion damaged the rear of the house and blew out several windows.

Student arrested over Net threat to 'take the balls' of schoolkids

HIMI, Toyama -- A university student who posted a message on an Internet bulletin board threatening to "take the balls" of elementary school students in a district of Hokkaido has been arrested, police said. The 19-year-old student, whose name cannot be released because he is a minor, was arrested on suspicion of forcible obstruction of business.

Police accuse the 19-year-old, a first year university student, of writing a message on an Internet message board threatening to harm elementary school students in Obihiro, Hokkaido.

"Tomorrow I'm going to take the balls of elementary school students in Obihiro," a section of the message read.

As a result of the message, the Obihiro Municipal Board of Education sent a warning out to elementary school students in the city. (Mainichi)
This new thread is useful evenb though it may cause confusion due to multiple discussions in one thread

You have all but given up, lol. I knew I couldn't convince you because of your ignorance but I know you are out of ammo now so you are going to just rely on sarcasm...
And no its not jesus in islam his name is isa (pronounced eesa) in islam, so I doubt you really read anything at all on the matter otherwies you would have jumped straight to that point to show off how much you know...
I presented you with the proof you want but since you don't want to look at it, cool fine with me. Just don't come crying to me someday.

Peace dude ;)

Boffins create zombie dogs

By Nick Buchan of NEWS.com.au
June 27, 2005
From:

Eerie ... boffins have brought dead dogs back to life, in the name of science. SCIENTISTS have created eerie zombie dogs, reanimating the canines after several hours of clinical death in attempts to develop suspended animation for humans.

US scientists have succeeded in reviving the dogs after three hours of clinical death, paving the way for trials on humans within years.
Pittsburgh's Safar Centre for Resuscitation Research has developed a technique in which subject's veins are drained of blood and filled with an ice-cold salt solution.

The animals are considered scientifically dead, as they stop breathing and have no heartbeat or brain activity.

But three hours later, their blood is replaced and the zombie dogs are brought back to life with an electric shock.

Plans to test the technique on humans should be realised within a year, according to the Safar Centre.

However rather than sending people to sleep for years, then bringing them back to life to benefit from medical advances, the boffins would be happy to keep people in this state for just a few hours,

But even this should be enough to save lives such as battlefield casualties and victims of stabbings or gunshot wounds, who have suffered huge blood loss.

Advertisement:
During the procedure blood is replaced with saline solution at a few degrees above zero. The dogs' body temperature drops to only 7C, compared with the usual 37C, inducing a state of hypothermia before death.

Although the animals are clinically dead, their tissues and organs are perfectly preserved.

Damaged blood vessels and tissues can then be repaired via surgery. The dogs are brought back to life by returning the blood to their bodies,giving them 100 per cent oxygen and applying electric shocks to restart their hearts.

Tests show they are perfectly normal, with no brain damage.

"The results are stunning. I think in 10 years we will be able to prevent death in a certain segment of those using this technology," said one US battlefield doctor.

Breaking the neck of a 4 legged mamal would be hard as you need alot of force and twisting it's head sideways relative to it's colar bone is hard and you won't really get a place to grab on to from the front of it's head,I would just poke/rip out it's eyes with whatever I have (anything from a pointy stick to my fingers)

Yup, you`re absolutely right.:) And don`t worry, God didn`t said that he`ll throw people in hell just for not believing in him, he`ll do that to people who do very bad things (which I don`t see you doing, so don`t worry:) );) .

Then at least you could say "don`t show me- I`m ignorant" instead of asking for some proof.
