@MiamiNephilim @IndoDodgerPean I was raised Catholic. Church every Sunday (sometimes Saturday nights), Sunday school every Tuesday.
All I wanted was ANSWERS.
I got them.
From ISLAM.
@PLPercussionist@atheist_wolf@MartinTweats@UgoCannon I don’t see that you have.
I just explained how it is.
Why is a desire for purity illogical?
You could spell my name differently without changing it, I still want it spelled correctly.
@PLPercussionist@atheist_wolf@MartinTweats@UgoCannon I can ONLY understand what Allah tells me.
The nature of God doesn’t contradict itself and God would not present it that way.
The Shema is specifically a command against speculating on the nature of God. God is ONE. If that doesn’t eliminate the possibility of a trinity?
@PLPercussionist@atheist_wolf@MartinTweats@UgoCannon Initially the Muslims were allowed to recite Quran in local dialects.
Later it was decided that this should be limited, so that one standard could exist, this was done over time.
Uthman burned Qurans with mistakes.
Just because it doesn’t change the meaning doesn’t make it ok.
@PLPercussionist@atheist_wolf@MartinTweats@UgoCannon According to what? Your religion?
That just sounds like mystical mumbo jumbo to me.
God is ONE full stop.
Why would God declare Himself ONE if He was three in one?
Why so emphatically emphasize ONE if not to preempt claims of multiplicity?
@PLPercussionist@atheist_wolf@MartinTweats@UgoCannon That, to me, sounds more like a convenient rationalization than a solid hypothesis.
IDK how they missed it either (although I don’t see it there either), but to me that’s fishy. Makes me find the Christian claim difficult to accept.
@PLPercussionist@atheist_wolf@MartinTweats@UgoCannon Not at all.
There are a few examples of words that could be one thing or another due to the vowels not being written but nothing that changes the overall message. Not even any specific message.
