New Trend

[ccdnn]

Hi all, I really appreciate participating in your forum and will start my posting with new information.

After the tragic attack on 9/11 and the war on terrorism, war on Islam in most media, I don’t know why Islam still remain the fastest-growing religion in America and in the world although religion is no longer dominates everyday life in Western society. Millions of people read Koran (Quran) in the Internet and visited Islamic sites.

Islam is the fastest-growing religion in America, a guide and pillar of stability for many of our people..." Hillary Rodman Clinton, Los Angeles Times

Famous people are affected too:

Michael Jackson & Singer "Cat Stevens" Oh, baby, baby it's a wild world

By the early '70s he was rich, famous, filling stadiums and partying like the pop star he'd become. But before the decade was over he walked away from it all. Hear his story as told him

Yeah but you're fucking retarded if you follow religion and so is this topic

Actually the natural inclination for religious faith is an integral part of the human essence. This is an indisputable fact of history. All scholars of comparative religion, regardless of their own religious backgrounds, agree that religious belief is a natural human condition. They differ, however about its origins.

If you think that religion as a whole has no purpose and achieves nothing, then it follows that whatever you do in life achieves exactly nothing as well - your life would contribute no value to existence.

Wait, did you just spam this around random forums?

That makes no fucking sense whatsoever, you are the type of cunt I hate the most, religious person who thinks if you're not religious you're making nothing of yourself, so if I cured cancer, but I didn't believe in god, my life has contributed no value to existence? You really are a complete and utter tool, you're living in a dream world, all because some guy wrote a book 2 thousand years ago and claimed it to be the words of a magical guy floating in the sky that nobody had ever seen, don't come here and post controversial things that are obviously going to start a debate, because we have a debate section for that, and nobody wants to hear about your religious bullshit.

Someone lock this topic.

Most of the people who believe in God are doing blind belief, the majority of the people in the world are blindly following the religion of their fathers. An atheist, on the other hand, even though he may belong to a religious family, uses his intellect to deny the existence of God; what ever concept or qualities of God he may have learnt in his religion may not seem to be logical to him.

for you to say ‘there is no God’, you should at least know the concept of God. Your concept of God would be derived from the surroundings in which you live. The god that a large number of people worship has got human qualities - therefore you dont believe in such a god. Similarly most people too does not and should not believe in such false gods

I honestly couldn't care less, I don't want to hear about religion, jesus christ, can't even go to a fucking runescape forum without it being pushed in your face.

This opinion implies that the human being has a natural tendency to seek out something to worship and that there is a natural feeling that this object of worship must possess greatness.

The fact that pagan societies always worship a plurality of beings – never restricting themselves to worshipping, for example, one mountain or one star – is an indication that man, in reality, naturally seeks an overwhelming Higher Power and compensates for this by taking a collection of deities. This shows that he feels a need for a power outside of his natural environment that he can turn to when all the material powers around him fail.

This religious sense has achieved a great importance in the intellectual life of man, whereby the world of the unseen has become part of what man can believe in for his practical life instead of merely belonging to the world of imagination and fancy.

Disbelievers have purposes in their lives such as collecting money and property, indulging in sex, eating, and dancing. But all these purposes are transient and passing ones. All these purposes come and go, go up and down. Money comes and goes. Health comes and goes. Sexual activities cannot continue forever. All these lusts for money, food and sex cannot answer the individual's questions: so what? Then What?

However, Islam saves Muslims from the trouble of asking the question, because Islam makes it clear, from the very beginning, that the permanent purpose of the Muslim in this life is to obey Allah in order to go to Paradise in the second life.

is to obey Allah in order to go to Paradise in the second life.

Strap semtex to your chest, take the lives of innocent people considering yourself to be some type of "martyr" and get to paradise? What an absolute pile of horse shit.

Gonna continue dumping pictures disproving religious logic or pictures that are just as funny as this threads topic.
