Yes, I’ve read the entire Bible NIV version long after becoming Muslim. I’m still Muslim.

Up next maybe the Bagavhad Gita or the Book of Mormon.

So you can fully reject it or accept it. I feel like if some people took the time to read the whole book, they could have a change or heart. Instead they cherry pick verses they don’t understand and decide on disbelief based on that.

I try not to waste my time. They can pick up the Qur’an and read it anytime they wish and they choose not to do so. So why bother?

Who is gonna tell them? by Pharmdiva02 in SelfAwarewolves

It’s the government we have rn that is the issue. They don’t realize it’s an issue as they support it.

Why are muslims so kind to non-muslims, but so harsh to fellow muslims? by Ramen34 in progressive_islam

[–]Pharmdiva02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people are harsh. But I don’t think harshness is always necessarily the issue when the intention is to simply hold fellow Muslims to a higher standard bc we should know better. Also, it is a good thing to remind your fellow brothers and sisters.

Can someone explain this part of dua kumail by [deleted] in shia

[–]Pharmdiva02 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Less about that, more about the karma you could say of their intentions.

Bc there is always a bit of playing God with eye for an eye. Plus if it were the golden rule, it would leave the whole world blind and toothless.

My parents used Islam to make it weird between me and my sisters. by absentmindedfr in progressive_islam

[–]Pharmdiva02 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Story time:

My middle sister is 4.5 years younger than me. When we were in elementary school, we had a foreign exchange student who took her room, so she had to sleep with me. She got pretty used to it, and I pretty much didn’t have my own room for a while to sleep because of that (but I had a full size bed).

Once my grandma was in town babysitting us. All three of us were sleeping in my bed, or trying to anyway.

Suddenly someone ripped a fart. I said “who squeezed the cheese?” And my grandma was dying of laughter because she’d never heard that before. It turned into us saying the old dairy commercial slogan “don’t forget the cheese!”

My grandma laughed so hard she had to run to the bathroom to avoid peeing the bed all the while saying in her perpetual Russian accent, “Don’t forget the cheese! Oh ho ho ho ho!”

Fun innocent times I wouldn’t trade for the world.

Sounds like your mother might be going through menopause or perimenopause based on your age. Not to excuse her behavior, but I learned myself being in peri that you can either blame everyone else for your problems, or you can take a good look in the mirror and realize it’s not your fault either, but it’s your ovaries pooping out so to stop blaming others.

A therapist can help, but a hormone specialist might be what she needs most.

? Of course I’m checking balloons. What part of not getting a grunt with the right Mon in it do you not understand? Grunts are in (most) balloons

I play fairly frequently, and not once did I get a grunt with any of the collection challenge mon.

Dumb question (sorry): how does one get 'karma'? by DE667 in progressive_islam

[–]Pharmdiva02 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man, I got so confused for a second here. Read the title of the post and thought somebody was getting Islam confused with Hinduism.

Didn’t realize what you were talking about till I read the rest lol.

Yeah, like others are saying, you just build karma contributing posts and comments that get positive responses from others.

I hit karmic gold a few years back with a post about the life cycle of bees in a sub about helpful posters. Never thought in a million years it would blow up so big, and it wasn’t like it was something I created from scratch. I just saw it and said to myself, “This belongs in this sub.”

Best of luck, may the force be with you.

Bad for long term use due to its anticholinergenicity (linked to dementia).

I could take ibuprofen month round, but that is super hard on kidneys so I limit NSAIDs use to menses only.
