[QUOTE="Francis Drake, post: 73575860, member: 329010"] All men are flawed and no man is perfect by his own efforts. That's the prime message in the Judeo-Christian scriptures. In no way does that excuse bad behaviour, but illustrates human nature. ie. Man cannot perfect himself. (Did you mean [SIZE=6][COLOR=#ff0000]un[/COLOR][/SIZE]comfortable?) Despite all the failure you describe, David was called "A man after God's own heart" because he always admitted his guilt before God and sought forgiveness. Huge sections of history, as related in the Koran, originates from the Hebrew scriptures. In order to find where the truth lies, we need to go to the original sources. As Islam originates around 600 AD, its scriptures are much much later than the originals. And adding to that, do you really believe that all these patriarchs were sinlessly perfect? And if they were that perfect, why do we never see such sinlessly perfect men around us today, whether Jewish, Christians, or Muslim? To my simple observation, all me are very flawed, especially me! No offense taken, we are merely exploring facts. The only hope we have of perfection is through humility and God's forgiveness. My relationship with God is not based on my perfection, but on God's love and forgiveness for my sinful failures. [/QUOTE]
