STEPHEN J JAMES joins.
1:44:00 You would expect a Muslim to use his religious principles to make the case for or against something.
1:44:30 It is interesting to learn that rabbis now fear to debate Muslims.
1:45:00 Islam is indeed an imperial religion.
Isn't Christianity an imperial religion?
Wasn't it Christians who acquired three global empires?
Are Westerners just people who can dish it out but can't take it when the boot is on the other foot?
1:45:00 My entire position is that Muslims ignored their own rules which resulted in their civilisations and empires crashing and burning. The solution to the problem of not following the rules properly is to follow the rules properly. Are you saying Westerners are not capable of following the rules properly and cannot do better than Muslims in the matter of rule-following?
1:45:30 What is this story of Muhammad expelling non-Muslims from the Arabian Peninsula?
Why would Muslim conquerors expel non-Muslims when they can exact tribute and make slaves of them?
1:48:00 The solution is to tell Muslims to shut up about people not being an Arabic speaker as an excuse to dismiss questions and the issues they raise.
Islamophobes would adopt positions that confirm their Islamophobia while Muslims would adopt a position that confirm the Islamic position on things ie that God exists and the Koran is the best available guide to humanity.
I take the middle position of saying that it does not matter whether God actually exists or who wrote the Koran, it is the best available guide to humanity.
1:49:00 Luke ignores the fact that there are Jews who believe the Torah comes from God. As I said, you don't have to believe in God to come to the conclusion that the Koran is the best available guide to humanity.
Atheists can always deny God and deny the divine authorship of scripture.
2:12:00 Caleb Maupin explains why it is logical and necessary to believe in God if we want to be good and effective.
