    Share this with your friends, family members .... Very good advice for all.
    A true word of God.

    [27] "But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, [28] bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you. [29] If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. [30] Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. [31] Do to others as you would have them do to you.

    [32] "If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' love those who love them. [33] And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' do that. [34] And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' lend to 'sinners,' expecting to be repaid in full. [35] But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. [36] Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

    Thanks for sharing guys!

    The Meaning of Ramadan

    "The month of Ramadaan in which the Qur’aan was revealed, a guidance for mankind and clear proofs for the guidance of the Criterion between right and wrong. So whosoever of you sights the crescent for the month of Ramadaan, he must fast that month." [Soorah al-Baqarah 2:185]

    Now is a good time for all muslims to spread the word "Islam is against all sort of violence".
    The imams should teach the muslims .....
    "..... love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. [36] Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful."

    If they do this they'll be the ones who will benefit the most.

    Excellent advice, Now give me $10,000.

    Let's see if you really believe this crap or if you are just regurgitating it for effect, I suspect i already know the answer.

    A wise man would ask for explanation of that if he finds it hard to understand and implement. A croock will try to take advantage of others. The fools beleive they came on Earth to eat and drink.

    Where does it say that?

    Do me a favour, if you aren't prepared to follow this crap, Please don't have the ordacity and cheek to be telling us that we should be following it.

    An hour ago it was "Very good advice", Suddenly doesn't seem so good does it.

    My advice is to give it to somebody who "really" needs it. Otherwise criminals and lowlives will deprive you from your basic needs and as matter of fact the money wouldn't help them since they'll continue living on the expense of others like you, waiting for hand outs, and refusing to work.

    you said it was "very good advice" to give to people who "ask" for it.
    I asked, Now give it to me.

    Either it's good advice or it's not. If you have to invent your own small print for the word of god it can hardly be described as "very good advice".

    Wait, I just thought of something... Perhaps you are a hypocrite who likes to say one thing and do another. Nah, that can't be it, you are a religious person who quotes scripture, A person like that couldn't possibly be a hypocrite. :rolleyes:

    Would the warning consist of an invented get-out-clause that allows him to completely ignore something which he was telling us to believe a little over an hour ago?

    Heres something he could use;
    The above statment is said only for effect, I don't actually believe it and i'm not going to follow it, But i'm still going to tell you it's good advice and encourage you to do what it says

    Good observation. I missed that.

    I never really understand this "love" business, you know.

    They say love your enemies yet at the same time they bomb them to smithereens.

    Where is the love?

    Hey why don't you ask your priests to stop lying to the people and admit that Jesus (peace be upon him) is not God nor the son of God. And also that Mary is not the mother of God.

    What's the point of this fasting thing? And how come it lasts for a whole month? My boss (evil joo!) does this too, but it's only during daylight time for a day or so every so often. He won't even take his medication during this time.

    Please, no huge ass walls of copy/paste Koran text, just give me a simple & sweet answer :D


    EDIT: On a side note, is it just me or do Jews and Muslims have a lot of similar religious beliefs? The no eating pork and crustaceans thing, fasting, and other little stuff...
