[QUOTE="carolineislands, post: 75296, member: 5695"] LOL Right on queue. Okay, I'll bite. Let me spell it out. 1. You said the fact that people shuffle around the black stone in a counterclockwise direction is proof that Islam is the only truth and Mecca is the center of the world. Your arguments for this were a. Galaxies spin in a counterclockwise orbit around their center b. Electrons spin in a counterclockwise fashion around the nucleus c. Mecca is the center of the world. Unfortunately for your arguments, there was a real scientist in the room who addressed your three supporting arguments by proving with facts, figures, and PICTURES that: a. Galaxies can rotate either counterclockwise OR clockwise fashion as proven by Hubble's big camera in the sky. b. Electrons do NOT spin around the nucleus and the theory that supposed they did has since been disproven. c. Mecca is NOT the center of the world since the surface of a sphere has no "center." So: 1. Your supposition was that Islam is the only truth. 2. Your support for this argument was a.b.&c. 3. a.b.&c. were proven false by solid science. Conclusion: Supporting arguments were proven false, therefore the supposition would also be false. Now, you have continued to ignore the facts presented to you and repeat the same arguments again and again when they have been clearly, and in no uncertain terms, proven WRONG. That's the part I don't get. Do you think that your false arguments are going to tranform themselves into truth due to repetition? Do you think that nobody has noticed the big picture with the two galaxies rotating in opposite directions? Do you expect us to all go, "Oh wow... they do trample around the black rock in a counterclockwise direction -- that must mean that Islam really IS the truth!" Because if that is your proof then Wicca is also the truth (some call that witchcraft) since they all do their ceremonies in counterclockwise direction. They call it "widdershins." So maybe Muhammad learned that from the witches and Druids since they were doing it way before he ever came along. But it is more likely he got it from the same place he got most of his stories -- from Judaism: Wikipedia :advocate: Yes folks, the superstition of running counterclockwise around sacred sites has been around long before Muhammad. Now, maybe we should move on to the argument that Islam is the truth because of the "miraculous" knowledge of human development in the womb since Islamic writings said that God created man from a blood clot or leech like thing. But then, that would be easily observed by anyone who had ever witnessed an early term miscarriage, so perhaps we should go to the proof of the Big Bang... oh no that's already been disproven too. Lets see... oh, how about perfection of the language of the Quran? I think I still have those references to all the scholars who point out grammatical errors in the Quran. Or maybe the supposition that Muhammad was illiterate and had never been exposed to any other religions and therefore his knowledge was miraculous? How about that one? Oh but that won't work either since we know he was merchant who travelled among jews and all practitioners of various religions of the time, and was exposed to the Abramic stories many many times throughout his entire lifetime. Hmmm. No, that one's not good either. Oh I know -- the CLOUDS! (jumping and clapping) How about the cloud proofs? Those are the funniest ones of all. I love the clouds. :rofl!!: Or then again, you could just stop with all the embarrassing claims of scientific evidence in the Quran and redeem yourself by getting real and telling us what Islam means to you and why you love it and have decided to embrace it as your own personal faith. You might even consider respecting our own choices too. And if you feel really brave, maybe you could take into account the possbility that there might actually be other ways of serving God besides your own. And then, if you want to really get out there on a limb you could even entertain the idea that God may just be bigger than the little black box in the desert and he might even make his own decisions about how he wants to reveal himself to every individual, and that maybe -- just maybe -- we humans don't have any right to try to dictate how God will or will not reveal himself to any people at any given time or age.
