while i am not homosexual i firmly stand by a1337 and themaw to exist free of discrimination or persecution for their sexual preferences. in a faith that welcomes pluralism i cannot see any reason why they cannot call themselves homosexual ismailis shy of ingorance and fear. Why can we all not just ...

aleet, ironically your last post demonstrates the lack of understanding of physics. Newtonian physics does only apply to non-relativistic states (i.e. when v<<c), however, classical physics can, and does deal with non-inertial frames of reference. Special relativity can be applied to relativistic st...

Those references only refer to sodomy. Seems to me you all have no arguments against lesbianism or two men engaging in falacio. aleet's animal arguments seems to satisfy that those actions are not unnatural excepting them from you unnaturally lewd argument.

The Quran also says that god created the earth in six days. These things are not meant to be taken literally as i previously stated. Study the Quran to glean truth and understanding about the universe and God and your place in it, do not read it as an encyclopaedia because it most certainly isn't.

do you also believe people once lived for the better part of a millennium as per genesis?

scripture is not meant to be read literally! they are books of myth and metaphor which contain universal truths. furthermore, islam is a faith of intellect, use your head.

Doctor's are service providers not decision makers! Doctors can and must not be permitted to impose there moral idiosyncrasies upon their patients, however, they should free feel to discuss important issues with their patients so that they can have a complete and full understanding of any issue they...

thank you change for the excellent references.

i would also love to hear your own personal opinions on the matter.

I was wondering how you all consolidate the apparent logical contradiction that Ismailism (viz. Islam) is a faith of intellect while having a source of divine wisdom and knowledge (i.e. the Imam). It seems to me that the use of intellect is rendered moot since the word of the Imam is the highest sou...

if i was GAY i wud have been more than happy to support u and ur GAY thoughts but its the other way my dear fren you, sir, are a hypocrite! if you are willing to waiver in your beliefs as a function of your own sexual orientation you have just rejected your own hard-lined arguments that you have be...

oh, it just dawned on me, KID IS GAY! what other possible reason could there be for such a hard-lined approach. Kid is sublimating fear of his latent homosexuality - we should be more kind. please accept my apologies for my antagonism, i did not realize you were working out issues. good luck kid as ...

A-LEET, You are mistaken, the word gay was adopted by the homosexual community to provide a positive connotation to their lifestyles (previously, being referred to as queer). Gay means happy any queer means strange - the former being positive and the latter negative. But I do admire your patience wi...

I came across a study, a meta analysis with a sample running into the thousands and comparing altruism between males and females. The empirical rigor and matching strategy suggest this to be very sound. They took dyads of gender dissimilar twins and found that 50% of the variance in altruism was ex...

The Farman is Dar - es - Salaam 1957 - your children or grandchildren may go for a picnic on the moon or venus. Does this mean that if you're children or grandchildren do not go to the moon or venus for a picnic (they likely won't, a human hasn't been back to the moon since the Apollo days and Venu...

Kid, You're joking right? You do not honestly believe a few vague statements define prophecy? They can be interpreted to mean just about anything. And this is all post-hoc. I am currently working to describe the role of mast cells in autoimmune demyelinatation, using you're Quran (and only your Qura...

Shams, The Quran is NOT A SCIENTIFIC TEXT, I would like to know what part of it you consider scientific. Science is a METHOD for the discovery of truth, ususally applied to the natural world. The scientific method was first articulated by Francis Bacon during the European Renaissance, a milleium fol...

I did not read most of your post because it is (1) incoherent with all of the tags, please learn how to post and (2) because it appears that you are just regurgitating you same arguments which I have already exposed as being insufficient. AND STOP TALKING ABOUT SCIENCE BCOZ WHAT SCIENTISTS ARE DISCO...

and insha allah ALL UR DEFECTED PARTS WILL WORK ONE DAY

Kid, Again you fail to use your head (and apparently are incapable of using and spelling words correctly). Homo is a Greek prefix that refers to sameness (eg. homogeneity) or the genus of our species. The Prophets were people and are prone to err, just like you and I. Furthermore, scripture (being J...

7 pages of discussions and there is no conclusion? It really shows conflicts of opinion among us? Why do we have such conflicts? Saleem Sal, For better or worse conflict IS the pursuit of knowledge and truth in the western tradition (which includes Islam). Our legislative houses debate policy, our ...

I apologized for your misinterpretation of my comments, not my comments themselves. I do respect you not just as a spiritual brother, but also a human being. I believe you have the right to live you life as you see fit as long as it is within the laws of your society. In Canada corporal punishment h...

AsadALLAH wrote: Sometimes i wish i was born in my grandfathers time. Wives respected their husbands and so did the kids. Today, there is no respect between the husband the wife, kids to their parents, no respect for mother in laws and father in laws and no respect for our elders. I blame the govern...

Karim,
Are you kidding!?!?! You want to extend human rights to an unborn faetus, but not to your breathing, talking, thinking children?

Asad, People like you give Islam a bad name. If you don't believe in rights for women and children there's a group in Afghanistan you may wish to join called the Talliban, perhaps you've heard of them? Jiwani, Are you aware that the current government of Canada is a Christian conservative one (i.e. ...
