Dammit, I've been outed.

As long as I'm outed, I might as well admit that I've also mag-ifested in the past as:

What exactly is the point River? Do you think we all should become Muslims, since we reject Christianity? Since this is an atheist forum, most here don’t even believe in the existence of Allah. I’m sure many don’t know much about Islam either (like myself), and neither do I want to know more. I’ve heard enough already to know I don’t want to be a Muslim. So good luck with Pillar #1 (witnessing) because first you have to convince us that Allah exists, then convince us that Islam is better than all other religions. And you know, I really don’t like being preached to, because it’s OFFENSIVE. What you are saying is that we have to believe what you believe, or we are not right somehow. And
that’s not cool.

So would you say you are a fundamentalist Muslim? Do you think the Quran is the Word from Allah / God? You know, the Muslim religion is just as false as Christianity. It's based on Judaism, which is false. And you also take from Christianity a little bit - by
believing that Jesus was a prophet. But most of us don't even accept Jesus was that. Jesus was just a man. And Mohammed? There's no reason I should believe that Mohammed got the Quran from the angel Gabriel. And you actually believe that Jesus is going to have a second coming and defeat the antichrist? Wow man.

I don't like the Muslim religion any more than I like the Christian religion. If you believe that people need to be Muslims, or Jews, or Christians, in order to be saved, that is silly. What happens if you don’t do the things your religion requires? What if I we don’t
become Muslims? What are you trying to say?

Agreed. Since it's more suited to that location, I shall close this thread.
