Again, I hope you are not implying that I myself am "bashing" him. I may have come on a little strong, but I prefer to get to the heart of the matter, not sit back in the shadows and make idle chit chat that amounts to very little. I posed a series of statements and ideas from my perspective in the hopes that he would calmly try to explain his point of view.

Figurehead: Jesus / Muhammad
Osaeed, correct me if I'm wrong, but the distinction between the two is that Christians believe that Jesus/God are the same person, and Muslims believe that Muhammed was just a messenger for God's word?
As I understand it the Qu'ran was never translated into any other language because the Muslims did not want to lose any of the meaning associated with the changes.
Apart from that, as I understand it, the Qu'ran and the Bible share 34 of the 37 prophets? I'm not sure on the number exactly, but I know that they're mid-thirties, and that they're very close.
Also, from what I understand, Islam is not corrupt at all - many of the Muslims that are often stereo-typed are the most dramatic, fundamentalist Muslims. Islam cannot be faulted for those types of people - every religion has them. Anyone ever heard of Opus Dei?
Talking about religion is cool, bashing people about religion is not.
Osaeed, have you ever taken that big long pilgrimmage? I forget the name of it, but it's like three or four days long? Just curious. :)

yea Christains believe that Jesus is son of god. If I am completely incorrect let me know and call me a fag lol. We muslims believe that Prophet Isa (Jesus) was also a Prophet back then, but NOT the son of a god.
"Do Muslims believe that Jesus was the son of God? NO
"Say: "God is Unique! God, the Source [of everything]. He has not fathered anyone nor was He fathered, and there is nothing comparable to Him!" (Quran 112:1-4)."
Prophet Muhammad was the last Prophet and was the one who restored Islam back when it was corrupted many years ago. He was also the Messenger of Allah (God) and yes your right.

Yea its called Hajj dont worry about it if you forgot :) I honestly havent been to Hajj yet. I went to Saudia Arabia and have seen the Kabaah with my own eyes and what can I saw WOW it was awesome. The building is tall and massive. When you go around the Kabaah you are actually standing on Water Line Tiles. before it was sand/dirt. Modern times they put Water Lines underneath the tiles that are freezing cold water, cuz its wicked hot/humid in Meccah city of Saudi Arabia and the tiles keep your feet cold. Its like walking on ice. I also was told by my father that ontop of the Kabaah is a water pump that pumps the water throughout the area and the pipes.
I wish to go again to do Hajj.

Seriously dont worry about it dude. Talking about religion is like talking like politics. People get angry at each other.
if your angry then why not we fight in Golden Eye Source 1 vs 1 :P
btw we all humans have different perspectives and opinions. its 100% fine to submit your thoughts to other people even its bashing. Allah (god) gave us a brain, a heart and we should express our feelings of what we have. We are all brothers and sisters. You guys are my brothers and your sisters are my sisters and the list goes on. Its not like I was born from a alien monther lol or maybeeeee..... anyways lol we all came from someone not something.
See that really pisses me off is that why do we hate each other, why does man kill another man. We are a family the whole word I mean. We should respect one another and help others too. Islam is not corrupted, Christianity is not corrupted, Judaism is not corrupted, no religion is corrupted. President Bush was corrupted, then the world became corrupted lol.
