Christianity Vs Islam - sensible debate

[the art of war]

You got it all wrong.

Islam says you can start marrying off your daughters when they hit puberty.

The 9 year old wife hit puberty, and Muhammad married her because she didn't want her to become a prostitute.

The daughters of poor families ended up being prostitutes, so God said you can marry multiple women to save them from death, prostitution, etc...

so how many sisters do you have and what are the ages ?

islam also recognizes all other religions. it also states that if a muslim is invited to dine at the house of a jew or a christian, they are obliged to dine with them because they must respect all humans as equals.

Lotsa muslims out there are doing it wrong, then...:confused:

ok then so if you determine your daughter, or say that the kid had hit puberty you could marry her at 9!!

To save her from becoming a prostitute!!!? LOL!

Marry multiple women 'to save them' like its out of compassion.

And you genuinely buy all that?

sounds like the excuse of a peodophile (who are apparently amognst the best lyers in the world) and a male dominant female supprsssed kind to me

But genuinely thanks for your honesty:thumup:

You don't determine anything. When the daughter hits puberty, she will tell you.

Than its up to the parents if they want their daughter to be married.

The whole prostitution thing happens to very poor families. Middle and upper class families, it is very rare


Glad I could help :)

it still happens in the villages in pakistan. just not at age 9, maybe like 16. i know of a girl who was engaged when she was still in high school, both here in the US (recent immigrant families never changed their ways) and back in pakistan. it's a real shame. :disagree:

i look at islam as the basis of my moral beliefs more than anything. i don't really follow it more than that. i don't pray and i don't limit my food (i still don't eat pork though, everything else is fair game).

i think that the only issue that christianity and islam has stems from the fundamentalists from both parties always raging some sort of war against one another.

do any of you on the board know of someone who is a muslim but wouldn't appear to be so? or even a person who is generally religious but doesn't seem to make it point for it to be known?

lol... well that because the villages of Pakistan are dumb as rocks. They have no education and they only believe the Islamic rules that were taught to them by fundamentalists.

They have no sense of modernization and they are against any change.

Basis because that's how you were raised or because it's what you feel you are most connected with?

[mofo]

Basis because that's how you were raised or because it's what you feel you are most connected with?

i think it's a little of both. i've taken a lot of religions into "consideration" and i will obviously feel more connected with islam because that's how i was raised. but then again, i also think that a lot of the moral beliefs of islam to me seem i guess appropriate, for lack of a better word. though, if i were in a moral dilemma and asked why i made a specific decision, i wouldn't say "because that's what my religion would lead me to do."

Why pick a certain source to connect your moral beliefs? Why not just be moral if you don't accept the rest? Where did "moral" beliefs originate and where did they adapt? This is just a rough estimate of the more main stream faiths. The point is not the accuracy of the dates. Judaism 2000 BCE, Hinduism 1500 BCE, Buddhism 500 BCE, Christianity 100 CE, Islam 600 CE. Taking that into consideration, what about before these faiths?
