Mar 10, 2012 - The argument is not the same because the legal system of islam is contained within the religious system of islam, there is no free will nor any expectation from the god of islam that free will will be exercised. The Christian God, however, expects His followers to do the right thing because they choose to do it out of love for Him. Free will not only exists, but Christianity cannot exist without it.

Mar 10, 2012 - As for empirical evidence of God, look around you. Do you really think the highly ordered structures of the organisms you can see in front of you just "happened"? Do you understand how complex your own body is? Do you know how many thousands of things have to happen in the right sequence to prevent you from bleeding to death from a small cut? Even to say the complexity of an amoeba just happened is like saying your computer just happened.

Rest assured, sir, you are not God, although you are loved by God Since I seem to have neglected to say so directly, the god of islam is not the God of the Bible.

ArodWingfoot mowi:
May 1, 2012 - There are about 18,000 things we could do to help out our next generations, but with Occupy Wall Street doing everything they can do destroy capitalism I question which will have more worth in the coming generations. I hope to make an impact, but with such hate on the other side, who do you think the history books will remember? The masses? Or the few conservatives?
halloranedward mowi:
May 2, 2012 - there were lot's of people in America in 1776, which ones have you heard of in history books? The masses? be firm, stay cool, and fly low!

May 10, 2012 - Well, the Founding Fathers, for all their integrity were human and, as such, were subject to faults. But I would like you to take this into account so you don't go around with the wrong impression: while George Washington freed his slaves in his will, he spent many years making sure that they could go into a world and live full lives as free men. He died putting the final touches on it.

May 23, 2012 - Indeed! Islam faces an existential threat in the age of the internet; and every day I see one more truth heaped on the opposite end of the balance. Islam is going down, but it will certainly fight!

Feb 25, 2012 - then your virtue will tend to erode. Morality and virtue defined this way is significantly more fragile than it might be otherwise, because its enforcement still depends on an external factor. Morality and virtue as processes of reason is much harder to destabilize or damage, because the prospect of reason failing is... Actually, its a contradiction in terms, because if reason failed, how would you know? It's the tool you would use to judge success or failure.
