    Do you believe it was only an accident?

    Condolenses to the Kovko family & no disrespect to those who have been in the army & their families is intended. To cut to the chase am I the only one with suspicions about how this soldier died? Accidental shooting Private Kovco's body is now expected to arrive in Australia on Saturday...

    Does Australia have an identity or are we just multiculturalism?

    There is an Australian identity - its history. Now it depends on how you interpret history - the Aborigines certainly do not interpret history in the same way as white Australians do. eg. bicentennial/white invasion day. You will have a singular "australian identity" when you manage to have...

    I'm converting to Islam

    With or without a sword, Love triumphs over all. If kids do not know how to love their parents enough that they would strike their heart - what will they grow up to be? I suggest the OPer suspend decision making on what religion he is (be an agnostic or Universalist) until he leaves home or...

    I'm converting to Islam

    Have you told your parents? So what is it like to run a sword through your parents heart? I believe when someone is as young as you (are you really 14?) - & still under the guardianship of your parents, you should place your priority on not hurting your parents than what religion you...

    Does the Qu'ran claim textual corruption of the Bible?

    Arthra - it was parallel to the verse Abdurrahim posted: 78 There is among them a section who distort the Book with their tongues. Perhaps I could have been clearer that my comment was holding up a mirror to his post. ;)

    Does the Qu'ran claim textual corruption of the Bible?

    You are absolutely correct there. Nothing is mentioned about the text itself as corrupted. It looks like this Muslim is twisting meaning of the Quranic scripture to us.

    Does the Qu'ran claim textual corruption of the Bible?

    From my understanding of your belief: 1) nothing happens unless Allah wills it. 2) the words of Allah cannot be corrupted. 3)The Bible is the result of Allahs word corrupted. Is it logical that Allah willed his word to be corrupted? :scratch:

    Does the Qu'ran claim textual corruption of the Bible?

    To the Muslims: Is there a verse or passage in the Quran that states the Bible is corrupted? Please post verse - thanks.

    Respectful Interfaith Discussions

    That would probably only work when cultural differences are addressed. Christianity in its current form is very individualistic - from the one-on-one relationship with God to one's own private salvation regardless of who else is saved. On the other hand, other cultures that had...

    Christians

    Does that mean that as soon as UFOs & extraterrestrial are proven to exist, you will become an atheist?

    Muslims over here please .

    & I thought there was a verse in the Quran that requires you to produce evidence when you accuse someone of wrongdoing. It must be fair to say that the Quran & Allah apparently condones unsupported accusations by reading your posts. :idea:

    The Qur'an

    Then you have no problem with your Christian brother George Bush toppling crazy Saddam over.

    The Qur'an

    You are showing that Islam is not a universal religion by saying "Us V's Them". According to Christian thought, those who are stealing from you are also your brothers & sisters that you ought to protect. (But then hey, maybe that is why some Fundy muslim fathers kill their own daughters for...
