Well, we already have the technology to maintain the human population. The debate is just a matter of cost-efficiency. And since when was reproduction an argument about privilige or right? You're either coercing rules on people, like China, or let them do whatever they want. Reproduction is a...

Now, I came across this article and was fascinated, at first, that scientist might be able to resurrect (or revive, for the sake of the term) the woolly mammoth, by means of little changes in DNA sequence of elephant embryos and over a period of time would become a bit more similar to that of...

Nope, wrong math. Based on Algebraic calculations, Y + Y = 2Y In regards to human chromosomes, this, Sir, would be a mess!

And the Bible proves just that... "Nothing outside a man can make him 'unclean' by going into him. Rather, it is what comes out of a man that makes him 'unclean' " Mark 7:15

I guess we'll never know then... I want to hear what analogy Michael Behe has for the rear-ends! Not the watchmaker and not the mouse-trap Hopefully, something more... relevant!

The irreducible complexity of our butts really astonishes me. How did our rear-ends come to exist?

Please, go over the OP to get an idea of what we're talking about. The world is not black and white, but the main discussion here is that Islam, or the Islamic world, is not catching up with civilization. They still apply their barbaric laws upon their people. To be honest, the Qur'an itself...

Islam_Mulia, if you want, you can create a separate thread dealing with the issue of whether the Bible is divine inspiration or not, but please stick to the topic of this thread.

anatolian, what I presented earlier was a hypothetical dialogue between a non-Muslim and a Muslim regarding who is unclean according to the Qur'an. My aim was to prove to you that your own explanation/interpretation of many Qur'anic verses are wrong and that the Qur'an itself directly attacks...

According to Jamieson, Fausset, Brown Commentary. 2 Chronicles 15:13 is referring to the law already established in Deutronomy 13:9, which discusses execution of spies. John Gill's Exposition of the Bible Luke 19:27 But those mine enemies… Meaning particularly the Jews, who were...

No, they are not the words of Muhammed, neither are the 4 New Testament Gospels are the words of Jesus. That's why it is comparable. That was not condescension, more like criticism. There is a technical difference, yes. But you cannot accept the Qur'an without accepting the ahadeeth as well...

You do not understand the importance of the ahadeeth in Islam. I encourage you to have some background about Islam before you debate it in public forums. The main point here is that ahadeeth are a vital and indespinsable part of Islam. It is what people at the time of Muhammed wrote from what...

Please, provide some evidence

I'm sorry, but you are FLAT OUT WRONG! Christian: Do you consider donkeys, apes, and pigs to be unclean? Muslim: Of course, the Qur'an says so! Christian: Does the Qur'an claim Jews [and non-believeres] to be the donkeys', apes', and pigs' descendents? Muslim (starting to realize where this is...

Yes, and society [mainstream Christians as well as all others] will condemn them. No where in the Bible does it say [ye shall blowth up the abortion clinics and murderth doctors] They are called extremists/fundamentalists because the Bible does NOT instruct that kind of act. Those who are...

oh, got LOADS of proof. Just read Sunan al-Tirmidhi and Sahih al-Bukhari Here are some, just for kicks... [/INDENT] [/INDENT]Let me know if you would like to hear more.

Yes, but when Jesus said that He came not to bring peace, but the sword, this is CLEARLY metaphoric since in Jesus' entire life, never did He promote violence. In fact, when Peter pulled out his sword and cut the servant's ear, Jesus ordered Peter to put his sword down and that anyone who kills...

I'm sorry, but that's different. The prophet Muhammed provoked hatred, war, and violence

DING DING DING!!! And the correct answer is: One notable center of Hubal-worship is said to have been at the Kaaba at Mecca, prior to the religious reforms instituted by Muhammad in AD 630. At that time, the moon god Hubal was the senior-most of the 360 god idols worshipped in the shrine...

I believe this, but to a certain extent. I don't believe that Washington DC is evil because of the way it is shaped or located or because of the handshakes. I do believe, however, that capitalism is heading towards a New World Order, in which they will aim to control global economics.
