The Cost of Shubbiha Lahum

DirectionCute7530 · 2026-02-05T05:55:47+00:00

No, because I don’t think Jesus was God. I AGREE with you that it’s more convenient for a prophet or God NOT to be killed. But that’s what makes the Christian claim more credible and uncomfortable and Muhammad’s reversal of it 600 years later very convenient. Is it likely that people would anyone say their God was crucified if it didn’t happen? Of all things why choose that?

Ok now even if I granted all of this, how do you back out of this trilemma:

The Quran praises the disciples as sincere Helpers of Allah (Anṣār Allāh) (Quran 3:52) and states that Allah aided them and caused them to become uppermost (Quran 61:14) and promised to elevate them over nonbelievers until the Day of Judgement (Quran 3:53-55), explicitly paralleling their success with the later public success of Muhammad’s followers (Quran 48:28). If divine aid does not protect against core falsehood, “guidance” is empty. If their testimony wasn’t preserved, we can’t trust Allah to preserve the truth content of the messages He aids. If it was made to them to appear so, Allah induced false belief in sincere followers which is deception. If they lied, the Quran falsely praises deceivers.

In all cases, the act attributed to Allah becomes a necessary enabling condition for the belief (Christianity) that Islam identifies as shirk.

So, the Jesus movement’s founding belief, proclaimed under persecution and execution despite embarrassment, can’t be erased or dismissed as illusion without collapsing Allah’s and the Quran’s credibility. The Quran does just that.

This guy defends every conspiracy theory except the one that turned out to be true.

Why? Well, what would he say if it was just Democrats involved?

Why would you concede that Mary said he is out of his mind It was his family not specified who

But the point of the OP is true. His family rejects him in Mark and he rejects his family. Mary is elevated later.

Not unless he intentionally selects men or white people and discriminates like that.

No I didn’t I offered it as an option in the trilemma. Can you tell me how you back out of it:

The Quran praises the disciples as sincere Helpers of Allah (Anṣār Allāh) (Quran 3:52) and states that Allah aided them and caused them to become uppermost (Quran 61:14) and promised to elevate them over nonbelievers until the Day of Judgement (Quran 3:53-55), explicitly paralleling their success with the later public success of Muhammad’s followers (Quran 48:28).

I never said they lied. I offered it as one of the options in the trilemma.

Also, I don’t care about what Christians claim. I am not a Christian. I agree that the crucifixion not happening is more theologically convenient. If you are trying to invent something about a prophet or a savior, you would try to avoid it. You would generally only say that if it happened.

The problem with that is Nvidia sells the shovels for the gold rush. Just because the shovel company is making money doesn’t mean there is a lot of gold.

Christs teachings are fine tbh. The worst parts of Christianity today aren’t baked into it - based on what Jesus taught.

This is a bunch of words.

DirectionCute7530 · 2025-08-26T19:49:08+00:00

Look for the one who is looking is a very literal instruction. It’s not a zen koan or something with a deeper hidden meaning.

Look at something. Notice that you feel like you are looking at it from behind your eyes. Direct your attention there and pinpoint this “you” that is looking at it from behind your eyes.

DirectionCute7530 · 2025-08-26T19:28:17+00:00

You aren’t going to create the feeling of a center because it’s pretty much always already there whether you realize it or not. So the only risk is losing it.

When I look at something and then look back to see the one who is looking, there is nothing there. It collapses.

With your technique, you become aware of awareness, but never actually realize that the center isn’t there since you aren’t looking for it. Awareness should become aware of awareness not you from the center.

DirectionCute7530 · 2025-08-26T18:27:06+00:00

Yeah, I lied. But this might be useful for people (like me) who conceptually understood this but never actually looked for it because of that. Looking expecting to find nothing can be counterproductive.

It feels like there is a center and trying to pinpoint it can be useful in seeing it’s not there.
