    Peace
    I tend to agree with Nun de Plume on Evolution.

    Also Freedom is an over-rated commodity,
    ... Freedom is very relative.
    I do not remember in The Quran any such word (in Arabic "hurr", "hurriah"; even for freeing a slave, it uses the Arabic word "faqqu" which means release).

    Have a nice day

    PS btw kirbytime you sound like an old friend Mr Danish

          iam sick of all these people who call themselves atheists. I believe they are just cowards and lazy and do not want to take responsibility. They are just too childish. they get all the good things and opportunities of life and they believe its free. God is trully patient. just because this forum says its for free minds does not mean I am free to swaer obscenities to anyone on board. Civilisation is about law and order. The law of the one that you and i know exist even though you deny because you do not want to be gratefull.Kirbytime & Peace can hold their belifs to themselves and i wish them all the best.(remember) The Quran was sent to LI QAUMI YATAFAKKARUN and not to the JAHILUN or the SUFAHA.

            why do you believe that?
            there is nothing in the label "atheist" that make them worst or better than theist people.

              peace

              i know quite a few atheists and i can say from experience they are the worst and the way ansi described them is correct
              "they are just cowards and lazy and do not want to take responsibility. They are just too childish. they get all the good things and opportunities of life and they believe its free"

              i don't know about all atheists in the world but i can speak for these around me who are only interested in pleasuring their bodies not caring about who they hurt and not thinking about the consequences of their actions.

                Nerspi, that's true with a lot of thiests as well. Calling yourself an "athiest" is not what makes you a bad person.

                    I dont think that its 'atheists are bad people' directly. More indirectly, because atheism has no morals for people to live by, there is nothing personal to stop them. So atheism is bad becuase of no belief at all. Not bad belief.

                      Peace Ansi,
                      Yeeep I must be the devil incarnate. I'm not an atheist though, but you can label me anything you want. Maybe you're right and I should take my views to another forum, but I've been reading this forum for years now and it's kinda stuck with me. If everyone told me to leave I'd have no hard time doing it, I just find having discussions with some of these people on the board very insightful.

                        Peace all,

                        I think Atheist are better than traditional Muslims who have many gods. Atheists are half Muslim because they believe in "La Ila ha" <there is no god> they just have to realise "IllaAllah" But GOD. They are not bad people they are impatient.

                        Just a thought!

                        Peace, Hamsa

                          so, the difference doesn't lie on being atheist or theist.

                            atheism has no morals for people to live by

                            morals don't emanate just from religion, also from philosophy, ethics.

                            atheism is bad becuase of no belief at all.

                            atheism is indeed a belief, the belief in the non existence of God or gods.

                              Easy peeps.There are many atheists (incuding myself.) who have strong ethics and morals. Having a wife and two children i feel i am a responsible and commited person.I am 100% faithful to my wife,dont drink or take drugs,or earn money from immoral behaviour. I follow logical societal laws and try to have compassion for society in general. I dont discriminate people soley on their views or metaphysics,but on their ACTIONS in life. I dont even need to define myself as an atheist,i acknowledge that some of the greater questions of life and the universe may be currently unknown or unresolved,and so i keep a somewhat open mind on matters of god,life after death and the supernatural.....Having said that,with the evidence and life experience i have currently i surmise that their is no god except cause and effect,and that science is the messenger......

                                  "Qur'an-alone" Muslims have never existed, even in minority, until the last 60 years. Do you have any evidence whatsoever that there used to be "Qur'an-alone" Muslims before 1950AD?

                                  12103 And most of the people, even if you are diligent, will not believe.

                                  The Qur'an cannot be analyzed scientificially in the sense you are supposing. The Qur'an is not a scientific text. The Qur'an is a religious text.

                                  what then is that dear kirby? a mere coincidence?

                                    salaam

                                    perhaps some of you may want to consider listening to a talk given by abdurraheem green at islamawakening.com. although the site could most probably be of the salafis, his talk on 'the purpose of creation' is based on his personal investigation on islam based on al-Qur'an. have a try please, as it should provide some leads on the very subject being discussed here. btw, please be ready with a box of tissues...

                                    part 1 is available here http//www.as-sahwah.com/playaudio.php?audioID=69& 5.6mb (.rm) 45+ mins.

                                    part 2 is available here http//www.as-sahwah.com/playaudio.php?audioID=69&audiopartID=64& 5.7mb (.rm) 45+ mins.

                                    we have yet to listen to his other talk titled 'islam' as we have just downloaded it along with others available at the website.

                                    may Allah bless us all with right guidance on the honorable path.

                                    peace

                                      Well what is freedom anyways? I mean since I came here some years ago I got some food for thought, which is the best you can hope for really. Everyone will interpret how they will in the end. But you get to come across some pretty unique characters out here along the way.

                                      And please pay tribute to Layth al-Shayban. The man has a lot of guts doing something like this for such a long time and much love goes out to him from this direction. The man lives in Wahhabite Islamic HQ for Pete's sake. bravo
