Faith no more

Peace FaithNoMore, I respect your decision/conclusion.
2/256 There is no compulsion in religion; truly the right way has
become clearly distinct from error; therefore, whoever disbelieves in
the Shaitan and believes in Allah he indeed has laid hold on the firmest
handle, which shall not break off, and Allah is Hearing, Knowing.jedi

Hi welcome back handshake
Why do you feel the need to ask us this
"I?m posting here now to ask you read the Quran critically. Just for an hour tell yourself it?s not from God. Indulge your doubts and let go of the fear. The Quran will tell you to do the opposite. If you are truth seeker what do you have to fear."peace
BenderHumanity has a better chance of prosperity without religion. In particular Islam. If you look at history and present-day it is unable to reform.
That's not to say I am against it. I support reform. However, some of you are ready to move on to the next stage. I'm here to facilitate that ) -
Peace FaithNoMore,
Well I must say I am intrigued now to know who you are. But anyways, I understand wanting to remain anonymous for now.
Thanks for the update on your journey - Out of curiosity, are you an atheist now?
Take care. peace
Apostasy carries a death sentence. I was shocked that even moderate Muslims support it, as I tested the waters.
Saddened to see how radicalized Muslims have become since the 80s.My position is similar to that of Abraham. I've have smashed all my idols including Allah. He is a creation of Mohammed and those before him.
I do hope there is a higher power that guides me, but I know it can never be anything like the God of the Quran.
I think only science can answer the God question. Revelation and prophets are an absurdity to me.

Thanks for the reply.
Agnostic theism then? That's fair.

Quran Alone, yet you mention Bani Qurayza? i will be honest, Man of Faith here thinks hell is this earth, most of the members here think hell is just a few days. The harsh reality of it is it's forever and all I can say is enjoy it ;D
Thanks bro.
An eternity in hell is better than one day in heaven with a tyrant. If your mighty God gets a kick out of torturing a weak little ant like me, then I look forward to it. -

I?m happy to have a friendly talk and advise people who?ve been having doubts. I now believe science is the only way to determine reality and what is good for us.
Considering science is merely the design of God that is slowly being discovered by our specie, isn't that like, admiring the Mona Lisa without crediting Leonardo Da Vinci ?
In which case, I wish you good luck and may the science be in your favor. hail

peace FNM,
Welcome to the forum.
I found your post a little puzzling on the one hand you seem to imply you are well read when it comes to Quran/"Quranism" yet on the other hand you make statements which don't add up to me.
In any case
- what are the 3 strongest errors you found in The Quran?
- what are the 3 strongest examples you have of abrogation in The Quran?
Thanks.

When you say you want to help us move on to the next stage, in what way are you planning on accomplishing that? Meaning, will you stick to posting only on this thread or will you be offering your contributions elsewhere on the forum?
I'm glad you asked.
I won't start new topics unless I'm invited to, by way of question, as all the information is already available on the internet.
So for example you might ask me why I say the Quranic cosmology is geocentric.
I will then respond by pointing to you some videos and articles to read.
That may lead to other questions or discussions. I might then point you to other resources or answer your questions directly, or I might ask you to research a particular point.
It will be an interactive process.As I mentioned you can start by looking at The Masked Arab.

He's sources Hadith & Tafseer, but tackles the Quran and I feel is the most appropriate for the Quranist.
Whilst I don't accept Hadith and Tafseer as authority, they do offer insight into how people closest to that time understood the language.Hopefully that will generate some questions.
I would prefer one-on-one conversation by email as it's technically easier to respond for me, but this forum is ok too if someone needs it.
I'm not here to convince anyone who doesn't want to be convinced.
I'm here to speed-up a journey that you might be on, that I have already taken.Therefore the questions and desire must come from you.
If you have no questions ... that's fine too.

Alright. Good to know. peace

It did, lol, although I already had this certain question in my head before you said this.
What I've seen from some people on this forum - and elsewhere on the Internet - is that people who have been "Quranists"/followers of Qur'an alone and then go on to reject it seem to do a complete 180 in their beliefs. They put forth the argument that accepted Islamic history is correct and moreover that Qur'an cannot be understood without it.
Would you agree with that conclusion? Or at least agree with the claim that Islamic history must, in some way, be considered when studying the Qur'an? Why or why not?
You said here
I was a devout proponent of Quran alone, and a diligent student.
And then went on to say this
Mohammed was trying to build up a following through fear. He offered no miracles or any knowledge that people didn?t already have. ?Believe in me or you will be punished?. Of course the punishment didn?t come from God but from the hands of Mohammed. If you study him as a historical character, he is awful.
I find it intriguing that this radical shift of thinking occurs. I would like to know why, if this is your current belief and if you can explain it for me.
I would prefer one-on-one conversation by email as it's technically easier to respond for me, but this forum is ok too if someone needs it.
I feel that forum correspondence is best for the sake of all our members and guests here who frequently visit this forum. peace

Such a hypocrite. Calls says islamic history is evil, uses hadith and tafseer to call the Prophet a tyrant yet in the same hadith book they also claim he was the most merciful and just person. You just love to pick and choose to your likings. The main reason you stop believing in the Quran is your pride.
Believe me or be punished is also done by our parents, the people that love us most in this world. When I did something wrong as a kid i remember my father or mother punishing me, did they hate me? Were they tyrants? Was it out of love?.. you are just a hypocrite.
You want a one on one convo so its easier to manipulate everything without any resistance.
Every religion, every belief and even atheists have some sort of negative information written about them on the internet, doesnt make it all true.

I find the whole Quran absurd. It's a series of tweets. However, you see it as the literal perfect word of God.
There is a big gap between us. Lots things need to happen before that gap can be bridged.
I need to create a spark of skepticism in you.However, if I'm not careful I will throw you deeper into your current position. That's how the brain works.
If you are willing, please watch these two videos. Then let me know if you are perturbed by them.
This will help me gauge the gap.

peace FAITH NO MORE
i remember an old fellow STUDENT OF ALLAH.
i ask some questions from him . he was unable to answer... i ask same from you..
do u really carefully understand the quran with verification? or if u understand it do you understand it fully ?
do u really think if a creator , created all this he will left everybody in the middle of nowehere?
post the verses which you think its illogical, errors, or mistakes.. we will proceed talking.. then.btw he will not punish you by not accpeting him as lord . he will punish you if you go against your God.. serving God in pther words mean to do good deeds.. these deeds are accountable on you...
most of the times people are unaware about God . their judgement will depend on the actions they did in this world... but after knowing the truth if somebody become proud and challange God its really thing to worried about?
you gave the example of abraham but
you forget the example of pharooh?anyway best of luck to you and post any verse you think its scientifically wrong , i really love to see once i also try to find an error , but still unsuccessful from last 17 years... hope so i will get a lead from you...
peace
NOTE i just count the words of your new title name... its consist of 11 letters ... one and one .. lol

Personally I think it would be pointless to try to debate as FaithNoMore has already said he/she is not interested in debating. Never mind the fact that if both parties are firm, they will equally stick to their convictions.
But anyways. What do I know?
its not debate its , a freindly request if he have evidence of his claims we must accept that . so thats y i also request him to show me the way in the shape of verses so tht i can also ponder on it.. and if i find it logical and true i also stop believing on God..

Peace Comrox.
I agree debating can be a waste of time and effort.
However, THE TRUTH AND FALSEHOOD ARE NOT THE SAME.
Presenters of either the truth or falsehood have THE BURDEN OF PROOF.The truth will always be verifiable and will always stand high, shiny & non-negotiable while it will always be impossible to prove falsehood.
Those who introduce falsehood or attribute faulty claims, concepts or teachings to God and His message cannot stand any logical debate.
The reason is that they will always fail to prove their contradictory and irrational stands and they will never have a support for their blasphemies.
When it comes to the following challenging questions or arguments, I think I am convincedSuch is God, your rightful Lord. What is there after the truth, except falsehood? How could you disregard all this?
Why do you not take heed?
Do you have any proof?
Show us your book, if you are truthful.O people, here is a parable that you must ponder carefully the idols you set up beside God can never create a fly, even if they banded together to do so. Furthermore, if the fly steals anything from them, they cannot recover it; weak is the pursuer and the pursued.
If anyone argues with you, despite the knowledge you have received, then say, "Let us summon our children and your children, our women and your women, ourselves and yourselves, then let us invoke God's curse upon the liars."
Absolutely, this is the narration of the truth. Absolutely, there is no god except God. Absolutely, God is the Almighty, Most Wise.
If they turn away, then God is fully aware of the evildoers.Say, "Can any of your idols initiate creation, then repeat it?" Say, "God initiates the creation, then repeats it." How could you deviate?
Let us see the proof ? ( Surely you tube videos also need to be checked/analysed!!!!)
I see another falsehood that is going to be shown up by the truth.GOD bless you.
Peace.
