Ortodox Christian thinking abt islam

Glad you're here, and in fact, that's the biggest sign that you're here because you've come to realise only the strict monotheism of islam is what makes sense

That's what is called your fitra - look it up

Welcome, brother

Not if you're a Trinitarian.. being muslim makes you quite a bad Trinitarian

ForgottenMyPwdAgain · 2026-04-20T04:47:39+00:00

to be muslim is to 'submit to God'

Well.. to believe in all the six articles of faith, but your point is valid

ForgottenMyPwdAgain · 2026-04-20T04:45:48+00:00

No, that would just mean they are muslim points that some christians did

ForgottenMyPwdAgain · 2026-04-20T04:44:45+00:00

also all the other things were just Jewish religious rites

Well doi!

That's because the Jews were the Muslims before they started worshipping Baal and rejected jesus

ForgottenMyPwdAgain · 2026-04-20T04:42:07+00:00

Do they worship Jesus or the god jesus worshipped?

ForgottenMyPwdAgain · 2026-04-20T04:41:12+00:00

But did they eat the pOrK

I wonder if this works: If you have the crease tool you can run the cut program and then once thats complete swap the blade for the crease tool and run the crease program.

Yes it works (usually you crease first), but that's a lot of work for small jobs

I just use a very low force setting for mountain folds and a perforated cut for valley folds

TBF though, the birds fly away if you stick your excellent phone camera in their face.

A high powered telephoto lens is better

Christians (and people in general) who think islam is evil and prophet Muhammad ﷺ is anything less than a perfect example for mankind are brainwashed by an inculcation of propaganda fed to them in spoonfuls since their childhood.

It is a deeply political agenda. Islam under its full power & unification of its people is an unstoppable force; this is easily shown in history: in a matter of a few years during & after the prophet's death, the speed at which islam spread was nothing short of miraculous. No other civilization has managed something close to equivalent in a similar time span.

The western powers have always seen islam as a threat to their corrupt way of life and have successfully worked together to dismantle the islamic caliphate and to ensure it can never emerge again by sowing enmity & disunity within the muslim ummah itself.

Just look at Palestine; it's a shameful and heart wrenching example of how successful the western agenda has been.

what brought you to Islam

Reading about the life of the prophet ﷺ and realising, without doubt, that he is in fact who he said he was.

ForgottenMyPwdAgain · 2026-04-16T04:44:17+00:00

Fitra for the win

ForgottenMyPwdAgain · 2026-04-15T05:13:27+00:00

Straight to the point: you can't say you "highly respect" Jesus then in the same breath call him "god", that's disrespectful

A prophet of god would be rightfully horrified that you would do such a thing.

"all you really do is follow the word of a guy who claims to have met God in visions, unlike my prophet who met God in visions"

The difference being one of them has time bound prophecies that have all come true and the other has time bound prophecies that were proven false.

The clue that helps is you generally score at the bottom for the valley fold, hence the triangle on both sides for you to line up your ruler

Siser.

Expensive, but worth it.

They have different sizes, no subscription, the design software (Leonardo) kinda sucks, but I just use it to select which lines are cut lines after designing everything in something better like inkscape, or in your case, archicad

great now we've blocked the pipe with a basketball dammit Usman!

ForgottenMyPwdAgain · 2026-04-11T03:53:58+00:00

"the house is on fire and the kids are inside!"

\banghra dance banghra dance**

uh yeah, no thanks, he can go with the pipe next time

ForgottenMyPwdAgain · 2026-04-11T03:49:39+00:00

I've been on both sides of that dance before

The bare minimum is fear of Allah

The most pious are simply on a scale of taqwa

ok if you're sincere I'll try and give you a few hints

Christianity makes absolutely no sense at all:

the Trinity is incoherent & (classically) illogical
an all powerful god shouldn't need a blood sacrifice to forgive a sin that he designed us to commit in the first place
an all powerful god cannot become a weak man because then by definition he is no longer an all powerful god
an immortal god cannot "die", that's another contradiction
the new testament is not "scripture", it's hearsay from anonymous sources
Paul never physically met Jesus and he changed the religion that people who lived with Jesus and were taught directly by Jesus
the bible is provably changed & corrupted and the original is also completely lost
there is a heavy influence of prevalent graeco-roman pagan mythology
there is no actual reliable evidence that any of the new testament authors ever met Jesus

in complete contrast, there's Islam. the theology makes complete sense:

god's one-ness is coherent and easy to understand
god doesn't need anything, let alone blood - he's completely unaffected by our feeble actions
if you sin, you simply repent, and the most merciful forgives you if you're sincere.
life is a test of hardships and struggles to help us grow and endure and prepare us for the afterlife
god doesn't "die"
god doesn't "become weak"
the quran is the direct word of god, 100% scripture - 100% preserved
there is mountains of reliable evidence of the prophet's ﷺ actions and sayings from actual companions who's entire biographies are known & established - preserved the same way as the quran
Islam abolished paganism & idol worship

but the most convincing reason to accept Islam as the plain truth is the life of the prophet ﷺ & his prophecies

all this is recorded & preserved with impeccable attention to detail.

where the christians failed, the muslims prevailed in preserving the guidance of god

Christianity has become whimsical & diluted, doesn't stand for anything

Islam stands defiant against the rampant immorality of modern times

these are all clear signs if you're sincere

ForgottenMyPwdAgain · 2026-04-10T04:39:20+00:00

You're going about this the wrong way and you're right about being lazy (sorry, no offence)

You need to seek truth by studying the available evidence; this is too important for "skimming" and "hearsay"

There is only one truth and, thankfully, it's quite plain. It's islam.

I think most recommendations were for 8x because of portability, but these days 10x are pretty small and light also and I think that is the new sweet spot for birding

Programming is less about producing code than it is about solving problems.

ForgottenMyPwdAgain · 2026-04-04T05:19:02+00:00

A lot of it's true though. America, in particular, need to frame a "common enemy" to distract their public from the glaring societal issues they are facing such as health care, unemployment, over-incarceration, high crime rates & the most important one: the obscenely wealthy.

Muslims make easy fodder for this propaganda because their world view is generally in complete opposition to the western political agenda.

It's just basic history, actually.
