The scientists you speak about, though less in number, have a system which is vastly superior to the wish thinking required by religion. If you read them carefully and understand their evidence you no longer need faith. It is an amazing and wonderful world my friend, one I would highly recommend.
Haven't there been "X" number of drugs over the last 7 decades that science gave the 'green light' to that no longer are recommended because of many bad side-effects including the biggest side-effect of all, death.

Sure, and isn't it great that they aren't being used anymore; instead of people using them on "faith?"

The big thing missing here is love one for another regardless of beliefs?

That transcends all beliefs whether religious or scientific.

Religion alone without science is like science alone without religion.

Science is as Eve, and religion is as Adam, both are married to form a living soul, of which there is a marriage of material, Earthly, (Eve) and spiritual, (Adam).

If there is no love between the two, then that kingdom falls.

Adam then must bring Eve into conformity of the spiritual as the spiritual head.

Note: Male and female are both Adam (Mankind), so that Eve is of equal representation as Adam to the spiritual.

Didn't they start using them based on 'faith' that the scientists were correct? How has that changed today, any guarantee that what is deemed safe today (medicine) doesn't get 'pulled off the shelves' in the near future?

How much scientific research over the last 100 years or so has been focused on better ways to kill other people? What would be the split in the amount of money spent in the world in just the last year, that is based on science already in place or being developed, if the money was divided into things that benefit mankind (cost of manufacturing and not retail sales)and things that have the potential to cause harm to a person?

Nor would it seem that science can go in whatever direction it should go, research is in the direction determined by others, most of the time with profit being not a small factor.

If the good things in science fall in line with serving God, then do the bad things science comes up with fall in line with serving Satan?

How much scientific research has been directed towards this kind of research after it was first published, not much if any.

he is a lier, a cheat, a murderer, a prostitute of the arts, an ego maniac, and deceiver. His vacant teachings have not enhanced the worlds understanding on one thing even to the smallest degree, but only served to be the fuel for war, hatred and misery.

When the revelation of the Quran was sent down to Mohammed, at the beginning, and he invited his people to the Islam, they refused to convert, and started to mock at him, and said that the one who has brought revelation to you is one of genies [or demons] and not one of angels, and that if God willed to send a messenger, then He would have sent the angels!
So Prophet Mohammed went back doubting within himself, feeling humiliation; and he said [within himself]: If I were a messenger [i.e. an apostle] and if what I heard from the angel were true, then those people would have converted, resigned and believed me!
Therefore, this aya of the Quran 10: 95-98 was revealed to him; to let him have confidence in himself and to be steadfast in his mission and in order not to hesitate:

فإنْ كنتَ في شكٍّ مِمّا أَنزَلنا إليكَ فَاسْألِ الذينَ يَقرؤونَ الكتابَ مِنْ قَبلِكَ، لقدْ جاءَكَ الحَقُّ مِنْ رَبِّكَ فلا تَكونَنَّ مِنَ المُمْتَرينَ (95) و لا تكونَنَّ مِنَ الذينَ كَذّبُوا بآياتِ اللهِ فتكونَ مِنَ الخاسِرِينَ(96) إنَّ الذينَ حَقَّتْ عليهِمْ كلمةُ ربّكَ لا يؤمِنُونَ(97) و لو جاءَتْهم كُلُّ آيةٍ حتّى يَرَوا العذابَ الأليمَ.

The explanation: (94-And if you [Mohammed] are in doubt of that which We have sent down to you, then question those who read the Scripture [that was] before you. The truth, indeed, has come to you from your Lord; so be not of those who waver.
95-And be not of those who say the signs [of revelation] of God are lies, or you will be of those who lose [the prophet-hood.]
96-Surely, those against whom God’s word is pronounced will not believe,
97-Eventhough there comes to them every miracle, till they see the grievous chastisement.)

The interpretation:
(And if you [Mohammed] are in doubt of that) revelation (which We have sent down to you), (then question those) Jews (who read the Scripture [that was] before you) and say to them: Was Moses an angel that came down from heaven? Or was he a human being like you? And were the prophets: angels that came down from heaven? Or were they human beings like you?
So that if they answer you that they were human beings like you, then be certain that you are a messenger (or an apostle) from God, then carry out your duty and warn people, and God will guide whom He will [to guide] and you are not responsible about their guidance.
(The truth, indeed, has come to you from your Lord) and not from the Jinni (or demons) as they claim.
(So be not of those who waver) i.e. of those who doubt, means: Don’t doubt about yourself and don’t feel unable about the mission; because God chooses for it whom He pleases of His servants, and now He has chosen you for it.
(And be not of those who say the signs [of revelation] of God are lies), so that you say it may be from the Jinni (or demons) and [it is] not an angel [that brings it down.]
(Or you will be of those who lose [the prophethood].) So that you will lose the prophethood while God has chosen you for it.
(Surely, those) polytheists and associaters (against whom God’s word) concerning their punishment (is pronounced will not believe, even though there come to them every miracle) means: every miracle which they demand from you (till they see the grievous chastisement) in this World by their killing and falling into captivity, and in the Hereafter in the chastisement of Hell.

But when the revelation of the Quranic sooras [: or chapters] and the signs of revelation to him increased more and more, he then became confident and became sure that he was a messenger to his people; therefore, he started to call his people to the Islam with determination and to warn them with a firm will, paying no attention to their words, and minding not about their mocking till a large number believed in him, then His saying-be exalted- in chapter 2: 285 was revealed:

آمَنَ الرسولُ بما أُنزِلَ إليهِ مِنْ ربِّهِ و المؤمِنونَ كُلٌّ آمَنَ باللهِ و ملائكتِهِ و كُتُبِهِ و رُسُلِهِ …إلخ

The explanation: (The messenger [Mohammed] has now believed in that revealed to him from his Lord, and the believers [have also believed.] Each one [of them] believes in God and His angels and His Books [:Scriptures] and His messengers [:apostles], …etc.)



I say: if he was a charlatan, as some claimed, will he say to himself: don't doubt about your prophet-hood? And will he threaten himself that if he doubts then the apostle-hood will be taken from him and the Quran revelation will be curtailed?

That will be impossible, because he was trying to convince people, then will he tell them: I have some doubts concerning it.

And if you say this could be used by him as a trick, I say to you: he never said he doubted, but only recently the late interpreter of the Quran has explained this about the Quran. And when you ask most of the Muslims, they will say to you: Prophet Mohammed never doubted about his prophecy.

Moreover, I shall not reply concerning your transgression on the noble Prophet Mohammed; because all the world know who is Prophet Mohammed; and it only reflects your manner, morale and ethics; and this will be up to God to deal with you accordingly.

"The Koran does not permit Mohammedans to drink.

God – be glorified – forbade the wine drinking in the Glorious Quran, as had He forbidden that in the Torah [included in the Old Testament]:
This is in the Book of Proverbs, chapter 23: 29-35
“29-Who hath woe? Whose father hath woe? Who hath contentions? Who falls into pits? Who hath wounds without cause? Who hath redness of eyes?
30-Surely they that pass their time in wine, and study to drink off their cups.
31-Look not upon the wine when it is yellow, when the colour thereof shines in the glass. It goes in pleasantly.
32-But in the end it will bite like a snake, and will spread abroad its poison like a basilisk.
33-The eyes shall behold strange women: and your heart shall utter perverse things.
34-And you shall be as one sleeping in the midst of the sea, and as a pilot fast asleep, when the stern is lost.
35-And you shall say: They have beaten me, but I was not sensible of pain: they drew me, and I felt not. When shall I awake, and find wine again?”

In addition, it is mentioned in the Book of Isaiah, chapter 4:
“11-Woe to you that rise up in the morning to follow drunkenness and to drink till the evening, to be inflamed with wine.
12-The harp and the lyre and the timbler and the pipe and wine are in your feasts: and the work of the Lord you regard not, nor do you consider the works of His hands.
13-Therefore is my people led away captive, because they had not knowledge: and their nobles have perished with famine, and their multitude were dried up with thirst.
14-Therefore, has hell enlarged her soul and opened her mouth without any hands… etc.”
http://quranandhebrewbible.t35.com/english2.htm#Drinking Wine

Their natural instincts do not permit them to be moral.

They say the Sultan has eight hundred wives.

What is this?


This almost amounts to bigamy."

God - be glorified - permitted the believers to have maximum four wives at the same time, and this will be a very good solution in case of some communities following some devastating wars when men will be less in number than women; although it is lawful in any circumstances but man should be just in giving his wives evrey thing including the copulation in bed. This will be much better than the adultery that is prevalent in the non-religious communities. This marriage of more than one wife at the same time is not a must, but it is allowed. To marry more than one wife at the same time is allowed in the Torah and there were many prophets that married many women at the same time, like Prophet Abraham, Prophet Jacob :) Israel), Prophet David and Prophet Solomon.

Well I gave ya'll the chance over dualism, sssooooo let's move on to Islam.

Mo Baby certainly saw something in the great vision he had. The Archangel Gabriel was there, SO HE SAID, giving him, THE PROPHET OF GOD, the real truth, nevermind the fact that this account contradicts the other alleged appearance of Gabriel some 400, 500, 600 years before to, to, well, look it up !

Aactually Mo Baby was kinda out of it for awhile after his vision, ya'll can look that up also.

Also Mo Baby, everytime he came and professed a revelation from God was just recovering from an epiletic fit of sort, now to be judgemental in the extreme, some would say that this type of symptom was certainly Satanic possession.

Sooooooooooooo, is Islam a Satanic Religion that apes Judaism/Christianity ?

LOOK IT UP !!

LOOK IT UP !!

Prior to Judaism and Christianity were many different beliefs.

The reason being is that there was no clear picture of the Divine, so mankind was left to its own god making.

But at a time appointed, that be a one taken out of the mix, that be Abraham, the beginnings of the revelation of the Divine begun.

So, true to fact that there were many beliefs of the unknown, but then the time came when Revelation was in order.

Thus commenced with Abraham, it culminated with Jesus as the fulfillment of all that what predicted and prophesied about who God really was and is.

Let me say here that all those souls who lived and died in the unknown era, were kept in a holding place between heaven and earth in spirit form awaiting the culmination of the fulfillment of the coming of Jesus.

After that, they were all released to enter heaven because of Jesus.

Now, with that information readily in hand, there is no excuse for one not to know about it.

The choice now being is whether one wants to accept as written or not.

As for the Muslim religion, Jesus covers them too, for if they honor their hearts to love, rather than to despise, then they too will have honored the second commandment.

Of all the beliefs in the word, if love for neighbor is not exercised, then the belief is of no earthly good and in need of a 180 turn in order to be of any good.

Principally:
  • Believe in God alone without any equal, peer or associate.
  • Believe in all the apostles of God including Moses, Jesus and Mohammed; without any discrimination: do not believe in some and disbelieve in others.
  • Believe in all the heavenly revealed books including the Torah, the Gospel and the Quran.
While concerning Satan and the devils; they are the enemy of sons of Adam; this is in the Quran 35: 5
إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ لَكُمْ عَدُوٌّ فَاتَّخِذُوهُ عَدُوًّا إِنَّمَا يَدْعُو حِزْبَهُ لِيَكُونُوا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ السَّعِيرِ
The explanation: (Surely Satan is an enemy to you [who works to destroy you]; so take him for an enemy [and follow him not.] He calls his party [to disobey God in this World] only that they [in the Hereafter] may be among the inhabitants of the Blaze.)

While as regards to what they said about the alleged fit symptoms; this was a fabrication by some Muslims in a way of some enthusiasm, as did they intend to convince others or to convince themselves; there is nothing like that in the Quran.
On the contrary, Prophet Mohammed – peace be on him – was fully conscious when he received the revelation from the angel Gabriel, even he repeated the Quranic revelation after Gabriel finished his recital, in order not to forget.

The story:
Prophet Mohammed sometimes needed some explanations or he wants to know how to behave in certain circumstances, so the angel came to him with the solution of the problem or with the answer, but when he came to recite that to people, he forgot the words although the meaning is clear to him; therefore he was embarrassed, because he was trusted to convey the message. So this Quranic aya 87: 6-7
سَنُقْرِؤُكَ فَلَا تَنسَى .إِلَّا مَا شَاء اللَّهُ إِنَّهُ يَعْلَمُ الْجَهْرَ وَمَا يَخْفَى .
The explanation: (We shall recite to you [the Quran by Gabriel] and you will not forget [it,]
Save [some aya's] that God wills [to make you forget; because such aya's are special to you exclusively]; surely He knows what [words] are spoken aloud and what [secrets] are hidden.)

So God – be glorified – explained that such revelation was not part of the Quran, but was some instruction special for the prophet; or else the Quran would have become extensively large.

Then he became more earnest to keep in mind every revelation that he heard from the angel; so he tried to recite even before Gabriel would finish his recital; then this Quranic aya 75: 16-19
لَا تُحَرِّكْ بِهِ لِسَانَكَ لِتَعْجَلَ بِه .ِ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا جَمْعَهُ وَقُرْآنَه .ُ فَإِذَا قَرَأْنَاهُ فَاتَّبِعْ قُرْآنَهُ . ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا بَيَانَهُ .
The explanation: ([O Mohammed] move not your tongue with the [Quran revealed to you by Gabriel] to hasten [to learn] it [by heart, or lest you should forget it.]
It is up to Us the collecting thereof and the reciting thereof.
So, when we [: Gabriel] recite it, follow [and recite] after his recitation [to ensure that you have learnt it by heart.]
Then, [after a long time] We have to explain it [to people.] )

So God forbade him to recite before Gabriel would have completed his recital; but to let Gabriel complete the recital, then to read after him; in order to ensure that he had not forgotten any of the Quranic revelation.

I would definitely say that the Devil started politics. :)

The Devil – together with his assistants: the devils – is the most dangerous enemy of man; because he is invisible, and intelligent and cunning.

The two destructive manners acquired initially by Satan were:
1. The pride.
2. The self-conceit.
Then God tried him with Adam, when He preferred Adam to him: God ordered the angels (and Satan was together with them) to prostrate themselves before Adam, then all angels prostrated themselves, but Satan refused to prostrate himself: he said: I am better than Adam; I shall not prostrate myself to him; my origin from fire is better than his origin from putrid decayed black organic substance.

So the other bad manners acquired by Satan afterwards were:
3. The disobedience.
4. The envy; because he envied Adam, and said: I have served God thousands of years, how can this one, with his putrid origin, be preferred to me, when he yet has not worshipped God?
5. The insisting on the disobedience: Because if he had repented and asked God His forgiveness, then God would have forgiven him, but he insisted on his disobedience, and his pride prevented him from that.
6. Then he increased in his disobedience, and started to work against Adam and his progeny, while Adam did not do any act against him originally.

Therefore, God Most Gracious warned sons of Adam of the Devil; this is in the Quran 7: 27
يَا بَنِي آدَمَ لاَ يَفْتِنَنَّكُمُ الشَّيْطَانُ كَمَا أَخْرَجَ أَبَوَيْكُم مِّنَ الْجَنَّةِ يَنزِعُ عَنْهُمَا لِبَاسَهُمَا لِيُرِيَهُمَا سَوْءَاتِهِمَا إِنَّهُ يَرَاكُمْ هُوَ وَقَبِيلُهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لاَ تَرَوْنَهُمْ إِنَّا جَعَلْنَا الشَّيَاطِينَ أَوْلِيَاء لِلَّذِينَ لاَ يُؤْمِنُونَ
The explanation: (Children of Adam, let not Satan seduce you as he drove your parents out of the garden, stripping them of their garments to show them their shameful parts.

Surely he sees you, he and his 'tribe who are like him', from where you see them not.

Surely, We have made the devils the masters of those who do not believe [in the messengers.])

I like the words of Ross Per who said " The devil is hidden in the details".

The details is what we have to see in our own lives that go against what is Gods.

The whole world was made a lustful place 24/7 and rests not. Gods words are apart different from the world, therefore must be learned in the midst of this world's occupation.

If one cannot overcome this world with Gods words, then the world's 24/7 devil looks to devour whom it will.

Love is absolutely the only weapon that can defeat the 24/7 devil. But that love has to be a Godly love, not as human kind of love.

Human kind of love can turn to hate on a dime, but Gods kind of love lends forgiveness.

What then can we learn from this life?

In the midst of sufferings, trials and tribulations, we find the meaning of life! What it means to love, what it means to give things up carnal or fleshly in order to demonstrate that love which can only be from God.

The devil is just a word given many meanings by many different religious beliefs, but if one can overcome this world with love, the word devil has no meaning, because you will have conquered the world, the 24/7 devil, which is in the world's details.

Hidden yes, and it rears up it's ugly head in murders, rapes, robberies, insults, bad behavior, selfishness, jealousies and greed.

See if you can find him/it?

Satan is not an idea; he is an entity; and it is mentioned in the Gospel that Jesus Christ had driven many evil souls out of some possessed men.

Moreover, the evil and good that are inside the soul of man; and man has to purify himself from every evil, and increase the good that is within himself.
This is in the Quran 91: 7-10
وَنَفْسٍ وَمَا سَوَّاهَا . فَأَلْهَمَهَا فُجُورَهَا وَتَقْوَاهَا . قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن زَكَّاهَا . وَقَدْ خَابَ مَن دَسَّاهَا .
The explanation:
(And [by] the soul and [the body] that shaped it!
And inspired into it its lewdness and its god-fearing.
He will be successful, who purifies it.
And he will be disappointed, who corrupts it.)

Love is essential, but it is to love God alone more than anyone else.
When man loves God exceedingly, then this is the First Commandment; but if he loves Jesus, Moses or Mohammed so much, then this will be an association: he will have associated these righteous prophets with God.

The prayer, day and night, should be exclusive for God alone.
If one prays God alone, then this is the First Commandment; but if one prays Moses, Jesus, Mohammed or Ali, then this is the association: i.e. he will have associated Jesus and the others with God.

When man sees no difference between God and Jesus or Moses, then he will have considered Jesus equal to God, and this is the enthusiasm and association, contrary to the First Commandment.
