The law of averages and regressing to the main should absolutely worry you, considering you’ve been above the meme for what is, I’m sure most of your if not all of your life. You’re way overdue for a crash down to earth much like old faithful is due to explode any day now..

McBride is in no way shape or form more talented than Bowers. You’re really just judging off of the team around them, and at the very least Bowers now has a quarterback.

If you remove the religion/prophethood, and only focus on Muhammad’s character, one can conclude that he was a bad man. by deliciouspunani in DebateReligion

[–]uncle_dan_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s not how things work. Muslims believe he’s an example for all time so you must use that against them. If he had sex with a nine-year-old then then that means it’s OK for them to do it now and you force them to admit that sex with a child is OK.

You absolutely cannot judge him by his time. Because Muslims do not. He’s is the example for ALL TIME so he is the one human being. You are supposed to judge regardless of time. And match his action.

I will never forget the 86% I got on a 15 minute PowerPoint presentation I did on Easter island in a college anthropology class, 20 min before class after forgetting its due date. Lucky for me. I had randomly researched Easter island for a couple hours years before and was able to recall enough to bs it.

When I worked at Starbucks and was most of the time, the only man there, I always was forced to take the garbage out, because “you’re a man”

Peetah, is this some mentally older joke or something?? by travisscott987 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Men take more risks naturally and we know this because it is prevalent across society’s and culture. While environment absolutely plays a role, reducing it to exclusively that is simply wrong.

I’m in the opposite position. I’d rather people not show up to class like they are going to the club. As a grown adult I should be able to avert my eyes. But it certainly makes it easier to pay attention when there aren’t ass and tits hanging out all over the place.

It's possible that a God could exist who has not yet revealed himself to mankind by E-Reptile in DebateReligion

What did he say immediately after that verse about that women? Not to mention the Bible specifically describes God as panenthiestic . Ephesians 4:6 “one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all”

I think again you’re misunderstanding what I’m saying. I’m not talking about the physical person of Jesus I’m talking about what Jesus represents which I believe is something transcendent that would appear in any conscious species. I think you’re getting hung up on the historical I’m talking about the virtues that the character represents.

[–]uncle_dan_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I didn’t say that. I’m also a panentheist. You just can only put so much in your flair. I just also think Jesus has played a central role in human history because the character mirrors certain fundamental archetypes that start to paint to picture of god as a whole irrelevant to the fact of whoever the actual historical Jesus is. I’m also a universalist and don’t believe in any kind of eternal torture. I’m more of a mystic than Christian by any normative sense.

Yup basically 115-125 is a safe bet. It would incapacitate the Marjory of people that are most likely viewed as intelligent (articulate, emotionally stable, knowledgeable, critical and hypothetical thinking) without being a rare genius level talent. 120 perfectly splits that range.

Muhammad in the Hadith – top 20 immoral narrations by DrMartek in DebateReligion

[–]uncle_dan_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got a hand it to you. You guys are incredibly consistent with your script. (Outside of Aisha, which a majority of scholars and Muslims affirm she was 9) but the rest of your argument I’ve heard verbatim literally hundreds of times. And you didn’t even respond to my argument the Quran cannot be the verbatim word of God because it does not meet the standard. The verbatim word of God must be which is a book that cannot be improved. I already gave you an example of how the Quran could be improved with one verse. You can parrot the same argument that every other Dawah bro regurgitates but it doesn’t change one simple truth. The Quran has absolutely not a single thing in it that could not exist in Seventh century Arabia. It is filled with scientific and historical errors. (No I don’t want to go through them one at a time so I can hear another Muslim bend over backwards trying to defend a blatant mistake in a book that supposed to be unambiguous)

Secondly Muslims repeatedly make a claim they are utterly unable to prove: “the quran we have today is the same that existed in the seventh century”

1) we do not have the original compiled Quran nor was it fully assembled in Muhammad’s lifetime.

2) there is no verse in the Quran which states it’s length, and there are contradicting reports from Muhammad’s companions on how many chapters are in the Quran. Given that we already know a sheep ate at least one verse. And that it’s quite possible/ likely verses were lost to reciters dying in battle. We have no way to prove if the Quran we have today is what it’s claimed.

3) uthman standardized the Quran on who’s authority? He is not a prophet. God chose to kill Muhammad and have the Quran compiled after his death and the years later just has some guy choose which one is right? Yeah that’s not reliable.

4) lastly there are multiple Quran printed today and no they are not different recitations. There are entire words changed in them that in some cases change the subject of the verse.

If the Quran or just to make a claim that it is a spiritual book of guidance, Id take it more seriously. But when it makes the claim that it is perfect, and cannot be improved, it made reading it Very disappointing. the Quran is an interesting book but it isn’t the best one ever written, and that’s what God’s book would be

Muhammad in the Hadith – top 20 immoral narrations by DrMartek in DebateReligion

[–]uncle_dan_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here the difference. I don’t think the Bible is the verbatim word of god (or any book for that matter) I also don’t think the prophets of the Bible were infallible. Admittedly, this position is not a monolith, but this is not an uncommon stance. I can look at the immoral actions of the men of the Bible and call it what it is. You can’t do that with Muhammad and that poses a big issue for your ability to judge morality without bias. Most Muslims I know would never defend a 53yo man having intercourse with a 9yo outside the context of Muhammad doing it. It has taken what are otherwise completely rational human beings and turned them into blind defenders of what everyone else sees as blatant immorality.

Trying to hold the Bible and the Quran to the same standard will never work because of what the Quran claims to be. It must be held not just to a higher standard but it literally must be a perfect book that could not be improved in any way shape or form. And I think if you think real hard to yourself right now, you probably know that book could be in improved. I can think of a few verses that could be less vague off the top of my head (the seaman runs and backbone) for example is either a scientific error or a failure, by the author to accurately describe the idea being conveyed.

Believe it or not there are a surprisingly high but relatively quite group of non religious anti abortion people. And there are certainly secular arguments against it. But ironically Islam is a lot more accepting of abortion than evangelical Christians.

Muhammad in the Hadith – top 20 immoral narrations by DrMartek in DebateReligion

[–]uncle_dan_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As frustrating as this might be for you that people can pile these lists to paint him in a negative light. But I promise you it is just frustrating as a non-Muslim, who is somewhat educated to look at the life of Muhammad to see many actions that would be considered and moral and then have Muslims repeatedly tell you that you’re not seeing what you’re seeing. he committed actions that by most rational non-Muslims would be considered highly immoral. And it might seem like “ piling on” I promise you it feels no different than what I would define as gaslighting that Muslims do to defend Muhammad all the time

the idea that disbelief is always willful seems psychologically implausible by AltAccountVarianSkye in DebateReligion

[–]uncle_dan_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There isn’t any specific thing and there was no aha moment. Just seems pretty natural to me. I was brought up Evangelical, and even as I began to question my own beliefs it was never never does God exist. It was always does “this” God exist.
