You can't take single verses from the Qur'an and apply them without knowing the surrounding verses and the historical and cultural context behind them as I mentioned earlier: The historical context behind Qur'an 2:191 and its surrounding verses came after the followers of Muhammad were forced...

I would take the results of that poll with a grain of salt. Questionable Reasoning: Right, Propaganda, Conspiracy, Some Fake News, Numerous Failed Fact Checks Bias Rating: RIGHT Factual Reporting: LOW Country: United Kingdom MBFC Credibility Rating: LOW CREDIBILITY Overall, we rate Daily Mail...

I always laugh when I see comments from people who compare the US to a banana republic or a third-world country. They don't have a clue about the level of corruption that takes place in the developing world or how political opponents are dealt with. Not to mention the levels of poverty and the...

Yes, I'm aware that Trump is leading the polls in most of the swing states at this time. That's why I said the percentages shown in that article should be enough to shift the race in President Biden's favor, especially in some of the swing states.

The election is likely to be won by a single-digit difference this year. The percentages shown in that article should be enough to shift the race in President Biden's favor, especially in some of the swing states. Looking at the current poll numbers in the swing states of Georgia, Michigan...

This data, when compared to the data provided by the Manhattan District Attorney's Office, shows that it's outperforming New York City as a whole when it comes to fighting crime. Not only is DA Bragg not ignoring crime in his district, he's been very effective in reducing it since taking office...

The verses found in the Quran that mention killing non-believers are referring exclusively to those non-believers who were persecuting the followers of Muhammad. The verses were revealed during specific battles that took place around 1400 years ago. Once those battle were over, that was it. That...

It's more than a couple of thousand. The protest movement against the current Israeli government – and specifically against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu – is growing fast and furious. What exactly are the protesters demanding? First, they're demanding that Netanyahu immediately make a...

Every offer presented by Israel to date has prevented the creation of a sovereign Palestinian state. A state is not sovereign if another country puts restrictions on or has some level of control over its resources, airspace, borders, movement of its people, and/or security, which Israel has...

None of those offers gave the Palestinians a fully independent, sovereign state. It seems you have been misled into believing that Palestine has been offered a soverign state in the past. Every offer to the Palestinians has included restrictions on their resources, airspace, borders, movements...

Yes, the teacher asked Jesus what the greatest commandment was, as there were disagreements about this among the Jews, and Jesus gave him an answer quoting from the Torah. The commandments Jesus quoted from the Torah were already known to the Jews and, of course, applied to all of Israel. Are...

Isn't it possible Jesus was saying that to a specific group of people at a specific time for a specific reason? Looking at what comes before that verse and after it, I believe he was. Jesus summoned His twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal...
