    The Tailbone Miracle

    The notion of a resurrection bone is a Jewish one. The Jews called it luz. According to the Jewish Encyclopedia it is the "Aramaic name for the os coccyx, the "nut" of the spinal column. The belief was that, being indestructible, it will form the nucleus for the resurrection of the body. The...

    Brussels terrorist attacks

    A good many people of any faith don't bother to read their scriptures. If the Christian couple did, there's a chance that the baby would have lived; if the Muslims did, there would either be more murders, or more of them leaving the religion. So what does the Quran mandate? 9:29 "Fight against...

    Remembering Asad Shah

    Yesterday in Glasgow Asad Shah, an Ahmadi Muslim, was murdered in his shop by a mainstream Muslim for the crime of posting "Asad Shah celebrating the Easter holidays", "GOOD FRIDAY AND VERY HAPPY EASTER ESPECIALLY TO MY BELOVED CHRISTIAN NATION X!" and "Let's Follow The Real Footstep Of Beloved...

    Brussels terrorist attacks

    Following on from the atrocity in Brussels, Glasgow yesterday saw the murder of Asad Shah, an Ahmadi Muslim knifed over 30 times by a co-religionist. His crime? Posting "GOOD FRIDAY AND VERY HAPPY EASTER ESPECIALLY TO MY BELOVED CHRISTIAN NATION X!" and "Let's Follow The Real Footstep Of Beloved...

    Brussels terrorist attacks

    "I have been made victorious with terror"--Mohammed in Al-Bukhari 4:52:220. The number of dead stands at about 34 with 120 injured. But this figure is pretty small compared with the 700 Jews beheaded at Khaybar by the Prophet and the millions of other victims of Islam. More deaths will follow...

    Explosions in Brussels

    Whenever an atrocity takes place an apologist tells us that 'Islam' (Submission) is a religion of peace. He'll cite verse such as "whosoever killeth a human being for other than manslaughter or corruption in the earth, it shall be as if he had killed all mankind, and whoso saveth the life of...

    Who Was Moses Talking To??

    Throughout Genesis God is introduced as speaking to man, but then we are usually told that it was actually an angel. When Jacob has been injured after wrestling with a stranger, the latter says, "[Y]ou have wrestled with God and with men", and renamed Israel (He Who Wrestles With God). But God...

    Is YAHWEH andALLAH the same person?

    Here's my view: Ishmael, the ancestor of the Arabs, was a descendant of Abraham, and according to Exodus 6:3 God did not reveal his Name to Abraham. So Ishmael was unable to know the name of God, probably because it had not been in existence before its revelation to Moses. Throughout Genesis...

    It's a Big Book, Sooo Where Do I Begin?

    My own suggestions are: the Gospels, Acts, James, Revelation, but it depends on taste. Canticles and Ecclesiastes are two of my favourites. Revelation was probably the first book that I read all the way through, but the point came when I decided to read the Bible all the way through from...

    1 Corinthians 7:36 Sex before marriage okay, so long as you marry?

    It's a huge mistake to give oneself sexually to another in the belief that marriage will follow. How can anyone know? And is a girl to throw her virginity away on someone who doesn't deserve her? If a man is honourable, he will wait until he can marry her; if he is impatient, then he is not. A...

    Clean and unclean food

    The first reference to clean and unclean creatures is in Genesis regarding the creatures that Noah took on board the Ark. God made a distinction between them, and this before the Torah was instituted. In Moses' day the codified Law was given regarding the eating of meat, and when it was I don't...

    1 Corinthians

    For me, ch. 13 is brilliant. What St Paul says about love can be used of the right attitude to have towards a member of the opposite sex. Love is longanimous, is not selfish, it never fails...It's one of the best pieces of literature ever composed.

    Did Eve come from Adam, or is that figurative rejecting literal?

    I understand that if the rib matrix is left in place the rib can grow back. Taking and using a body part to fashion the first woman would create a kind of connection between the couple, being related to each other. It seems likely to me that the sexes of all genera of life were physically...

    Crucifixion Without Breaking Bones

    Hopefully this is the right forum for my question. Mohammedans say that the Scripture that reads, "He keeps all his bones; not one of them is broken" (Psalm 34:20), could not have been fulfilled, as how could a man be crucified without the bones of the hands and feet being broken? I know that...

    Did the LORD change Sabbath?

    Goodness knows what the Sabbatical Year, kept every seven years, has to do with the weekly Sabbath. And as for latter-day 'priests', Christians don't offer literal sacrifices, they don't do any literal priestly work, and thus don't profane the Sabbath in any way, shape or form merely by being...
