So your morality is based on the whims of fallible humans and your moral code changes depending on circumstance? If this true then you can there fore have no moral claims over religion therefore any moral claim you bring up to discredit religion is null.
Yes, my morality is based on my own experiences and based on what I think is right or wrong - kind of a general rule that could be enforced to everyone. If it doesnt work for everyone, then it's likely not a good moral principle.
Yes, it changes based on circumstances, ridiculous to even question it. If someone broke into your house to kill you and your family, you would certainly think it is ok to murder them.
Why cant I have claims to question religions? Just because my moral principles differ, my claims are disqualified? What logic is that?
In a pool of religions out there, I seriously dont know why every single one of them think they are the chosen one. To feel better?
And how would that be fair ? Logically speaking all human beings would be better off destroying each for success. The reward and punishments from Allah make sure such things dont happen. Allah didnt magically appear when Islam came. Allah has been here since the dawn of time....for many prophets which came to many different areas.
Not really. Allah split the sea and people still worshipped a cow instead. People are stupid.
Again you have no answers.... Not us
Which God has survived in belief the most ? Allah literally means the One God. Jewish, Christians and Muslims all believe in the same God at the end of the day. And which 3 are the biggest religions ? Does anyone still believe in Zeus ? No....
Who says that anything has to be fair? Life is pretty unfair in case you didnt realize. Do you hope for fairness in the afterlife because it is unattainable in current life? How would we be better off destroying each other for success? Mayhem and chaos are better than control?
Speaking of control, that's another major use of things called religions. It brings structure even if it is a made-up story. Who benefits the most from people being under control?
Yes, Allah was there since dawn of time, according to Islam, so was Jesus according to Christians, so was Jewish god according to Jewish people, you catch my drift... Where is the proof that Allah split the sea? Some text is written by humans hundreds of years ago? You call that proof?
If I believed in a religion I would have answers too and a high chance would be that I would think that your answers are wrong... As I said, humans had no answers for many things and instead of admitting that they dont know, they said it is "god's work". People with big egos have trouble admitting that they dont know things so they would rather make stuff up...
Do you know why the current gods have survived the most? Because those stories are more believable to civilized humans.
If you were in war 5000 years ago, who would you like to have on your side, the guy who shoots lightning or the guy who splits sea?
Who believed in Jewish, Cristian and Islam god 3000 years ago? Nobody? What a coincidence, the same as today nobody believes in Zeus.
Then why havent I left ? I believe in Santa when I was a kid ? Why dont I see the same about God ? Why do people convert/revert to Islam....if its a fairy tale for children ? Clearly there are some with the capacity to believe and that dont have such thing...
Where are their proofs...we have ours.
We have the Quran....
We have Hadiths
And Sunnahs
We have predictions of the Prophets...which are all coming true....
Other religions get followers due to how they make people feel. Islam is a religion of proof.
Was santa said to judge you when you die? You havent left because deep down you fear the story could be true?
Or maybe because it gives you a piece of mind, for some people it is easier to believe in something than into nothing. It gives them structure, guidance...
Why do Islamic people abandon Islam and convert to other religions? Some believe in those stories, some dont, same with every religion. You have proof? Every religion has them apparently and neither is a proof to me. Things which happened around 2000 years ago having proofs..hard to believe in proofs from 2k years ago when we can barely believe in proof of things happening right now...
If any religion had actual proof, everyone would be converting to it but they dont because there is no definitive proof for anything except stories made up thousands of years ago.
Now that I think I have convinced Nik of God he might cling on to the Idea of Deism, The belief that the universe created be a supreme being but he doesn’t interfere in our activities.
Whether everything is created by a divine being or not, nobody can possibly know.
One thing is sure, neither of present-day religions nor their concepts existed 3000 years ago and let alone back then when things were created, if there is even a starting point.
