Member Named Allah

Salam Lobster~
Thank you group I think you did the most admirable thing, despite your feelings and maybe others. You are kind enough to see that some of us here, are sensitive (maybe more than god,...I don't know) about God's name. You prove yourself to be of a good character. You are well appreciated for changing it away from the name of God.
Peace be upon you always, sun

salaam,
Do you also have a problem with the username TheNabi?
I think ya just picking on phoenix. hmm
Ya think?
Nah, I'm pretty open and I usually say what I mean. I don't have a problem with TheNabi or Rasool or whatever else. I think I've been pretty clear where I draw the line. What you should have asked about, and I'm surprised no one mentioned this yet, is there is another member called - thegod who joined a while ago. Yes, I had a problem with that at the time too.
Peace, Angel )

I haven?t noticed anyone called ?the god?, only ?proGod?
So is anyone allowed to call themselves Jesus, Hashem, brahma or any other name people refer to as God? Or is it just Allah that is off-limits?
Can I change my user name to ?goddess? or is that not allowed?
peace be upon you

Peace all,
How can someone change his username all by himself? I had to get it changed by a mod or is their some new function now? Moreover how could "phoenix" do this? Although he might not share our every view ont he Quran, he still beleives in GOD so why would he do such a thing? ??? GOD Bless! -
he still beleives in GOD so why would he do such a thing? ???
Perhaps it?s his perception of God.
I was reading a book by Neale Donald Walsch, he claimed to have a conversation with god (honestly, some people have really wild imaginations D), in his ?conversation? god told him that it was his plan to turn us all into Gods. Maybe that?s where phoenix got his idea from? ;D

JK- I must say this person is totally deluded. To say tht GOD can turn us all into gods is like saying tht GOD could create something so heavy tht he cannot lift Himself. The reason is GOD is infinite and it would take infinite amount of time for anyone/thing to become infinite in power as well. So it doesnt matter how much power GOD induces in any of us well always remain finite in power. We can all become part of GOD again or better be in total agreement with him as were the particles we now consist of originally. GOD is defined by a combination of all existing intelligence so even if He were finite we still couldnt become gods since if we all combined we would once again be in agreement and be part of GOD. The concept of their being a god besides GOD is entirely illogical. GOD Bless!

The book was philosophical, apart from the occasional weird statements it was an okay read?.
It was based on the idea that a teacher was suppose to make her/his student into a teacher, and that god was suppose to make us into gods.
However it is blasphemous, but with an open-mind it is a good read.

Just go to Mexico and you meet a lot of Jesuses. Anyway, the reason people use the name of someone else is so he hopes he could be like that person. For example parents name their sons Moses, Jesus, Muhammad, or Abraham because they want them to have similar charateristics as them and there is nothing wrong with it since those people were normal humans too. But if you name yourself 'the God', then is it possible for anyone to equate himself with God who in Al Quran says that there are none who are His equal?
Peace,

Yea but pharaoh wanted people to serve him instead of serving our creator. Just because someone chooses the username Allah on a forum does not mean that people will start believing he is Allah and start worshipping phoenix. And I?m pretty sure that phoenix does not believe that he is ?equal? to Allah just because his username is Allah. And Jankren when people call their child ?Jesus? it?s usually pronounced as ?hay-zeus?.

It is because that is how Spanish people say the word 'Jesus' including the real Jesus. And once the kid goes to USA people will start calling him Jesus in English way.
By the way, I did not compare Pharaoh with Phoenix.

Peace,
While the hispanics, not spainards have named some of their men jesus, it is pronounced He-zeus. Although apparently its still the name of jesus, just as some arabs apparently name their child Isa, which is the arabic name for jesus. I personally am not sure how I feel about this, because jesus is a prophet, he is not a god I worship. but for the many christians who worship jesus as god,.. I think it odd for the catholic hispanics to name their child after their god. I know that many arabs, use their middle(the ones a few, that have a middle name),and plenty use their first name= as the name of our prophet. I assume this is a sign of gratitude towards him, because he is a prophet. But I think its okay. Many people name their daughters Maria, Mary, Fahima, Fatihma, all Jesus's mothers name. And the majority of Americans have a biblical name. So, I think for myself I find it fine, to name after disciples, companions, prophets, messengers...but not god. Because once again, it is not a name I worship. Just an interesting observation I made.

Peace all,
Yes Angel, I knew it was a joke, and I wasnt serious about Phoenix trying to form a cult, that was a joke too,, besides, he would now have to form a Cult of Crustaceans since he keeps changing who he is, how you going to have any followers if you keep flip flopping phoenix?
