Who is a takir to you? All religions except satanism
Who is kuffar to you? Not sure yet Are Christians and Jews kuffar or Ahl al-Kitab? Ahl al-kitab (family of the book) Are any kuffar innocent? Everyone is innocent except those who attack us. |

It could be for the same reason that some people had a problem with Communism. I thought Karl Marx's theory made good sense but theory and actuality can be two different things. History tells us that the fear of the unknown caused men to think that the world was flat and there were sea serpents. Sometimes ignorance can be bliss but at other times it isn't bliss. If it wasn't for mankind one could postulate that the world be better off. But for what or who or whom?

we have to keep open minds, how do we know there are no sea serpents? How do we know there is no life on distant planets that we have never been to? Can you tell me how many stars are in the sky? How many grains are on a beach? Can anyone awnser me these questions? No, because we have no proof. This is the same kind of question as "where is God?"

“Can you tell me how many stars are in the sky?” That’s an interesting question. And is must deeper than you might thing. When you ask how many stars are in the sky, do you mean, “How many are visible?”. Or do you mean how many actually exist even those that we can’t see? Obviously no one can answer the second question. Just looking up into the sky with the naked eye I think the number you might be able to see is something like about 5000 if you have really good vision and it’s perfectly clear out. However, using the Hubble Space telescope it has been determined that there are 70 sextillion stars in the observable universe. That 70 thousand billion billion billion stars. These of course, were calculated from general densities of the entire observable sky and based on the number of stars in typical galaxies which each contain about 100 billions stars. In any case, that number only counts the stars that are observable in that snapshot of time. The further away stars are the longer ago they had existed. Many of the stars (i.e. in galaxies) that we can see today may not even exist anymore. They have long since burned out and new stars have been born. Of course the light form those new stars won’t reach our eyes for millions or billions of years from now. So the universe is vast, in both space and in time. We can’t know how big the universe is. And that’s the answer – don’t know how big the universe actually is! We only know that it’s bigger than we can even imagine. P. J. Wrote: “Can anyone awnser me these questions? No, because we have no proof. This is the same kind of question as "where is God?" Well, in the case then why don’t we treat it the same as the other questions? When we ask questions that we can’t know the answers to, if we are honest with ourselves, we answer with simply, “We can’t say”. So when asked “Where is God?” why don’t we also answer that question honestly and just say, “We can’t say”. Instead we grab onto religions (usually some printed dogma) and say, “Here’s God! I found God in this book! And this book says,….” |
