    Qur'an 2:256 and the sophistry it inspires.

    Oh dear. YET AGAIN, you proved that you are incapable to understand what you read. I said, “Therefore, there’s only 1 interpretation in my explanation of Quran 86:5-7……”. What that means is in my explanation, there is only 1 interpretation. We know there are many ‘explanations’ and...

    Qur'an 2:256 and the sophistry it inspires.

    *Sigh* You just have to prove to me again and again that you are incapable to understand what you read and you are incapable to think logically and rationally. Here’s my response to @stevecanuck – “In Arabic, the word "sulb" (translated as 'backbone') is also quite commonly used to mean the...

    Qur'an 2:256 and the sophistry it inspires.

    The vast majority of scholars translate it as "between the backbone/loins and the ribs" which does not mean that’s how they literally understand/interpret exactly what has been translated. Show me one Islamic scholar that understands or interprets that passage literally and exactly as ‘between...

    Islam is a false religion per Quran itself.

    Therefore, not only you cannot understand what you read, but you also cannot follow an argument very well. Go and read back your post #284 where you wrote, “And their love, commitment, sense of responsibility, loyalty, etc. You know, all the things that bind a married couple”. Obviously, you...

    Qur'an 2:256 and the sophistry it inspires.

    There’s nowhere in my explanation that ever implied that I am suggesting that ‘the passage is saying either semen comes from between the backbone and the ribs, or between the loins and the ribs’ – that is what you hope I am saying but, that’s not what I am saying. Therefore, by your own...

    Islam is a false religion per Quran itself.

    Yes, you are right - like so many discussions with you, this is pointless. You keep proving again and again that you are incapable to understand what you read!!! Unbelievable!!! I TOLD you I only agree with you if you also believe that behavior morality is a question of the individual’s...

    Qur'an 2:256 and the sophistry it inspires.

    I told you to stop making “You claimed/are claiming …..” statements unless you are 110% sure, else you are making yourself look very silly and immature! Now, show me where and when did I ever claim that only I know how to correctly translate and interpret the Quran?? See how silly and immature...

    Qur'an 2:256 and the sophistry it inspires.

    YET AGAIN displaying your inability to understand what you read, and not to mention, the inability to think logically and rationally!! Oh dear, indeed! If you cannot show me where in my explanation I ever claim semen comes from an area "between the loins and the ribs" then, your comment here...

    Islam is a false religion per Quran itself.

    I was responding to your comment – “And their love, commitment, sense of responsibility, loyalty, etc. You know, all the things that bind a married couple”, meaning we are talking about a relationship in a marriage. So, yes, I find nothing immoral about such a relationship based on love...

    Qur'an 2:256 and the sophistry it inspires.

    Of course, you have no idea...never have! How could anyone who thinks a wrongly translated passage will give a correct interpretation of that passage have any idea about anything?? That's just garbled nonsense!!

    Qur'an 2:256 and the sophistry it inspires.

    Again, you just proved that you just cannot understand what you read. Can you show me where in my explanation did I ever claim semen comes from an area "between the loins and the ribs"?? Guess an ignorant simpleton with zero integrity will always be an ignorant simpleton with zero integrity...

    Islam is a false religion per Quran itself.

    Yeah, so what’s wrong with that?? Is there anything immoral about love, commitment, sense of responsibility, loyalty, etc??? It’s not about the words, it’s about what it represents and the rights of the individual involved. Can a woman with children in an unmarried relationship claim alimony...

    Qur'an 2:256 and the sophistry it inspires.

    Which obviously reflects your friend’s ignorance and you, and that goes without saying. In Arabic, the word "sulb" (translated as 'backbone') is also quite commonly used to mean the loins of a man. This is how it is used elsewhere in the Quran. For example, in Quran 4:23, Allah says...

    Qur'an 2:256 and the sophistry it inspires.

    Ah, if it’s not the man who first introduced me to the Flying Spaghetti Monster himself!! The loonies are coming out now!! Looks like the ’IITLR’ (Ignorance, Incapable to Think Logically and Rationally) Club has a new member!! URAAA! I am sure membership will soar after your entry!! So tell me...

    Qur'an 2:256 and the sophistry it inspires.

    Ah, displaying your ignorance and inability to think logically and rationally YET AGAIN! If the translation is already wrong, then the whole interpretation of that passage is definitely wrong. The issue of context when the passage is already wrongly translated does not even arise, the issue of...

    Qur'an 2:256 and the sophistry it inspires.

    You keep showing me that you are such a simpleton who really cannot understand what you read nor can you understand the context. When you don’t understand context, then your ‘explanation’ is nothing but nonsense and you keep making a fool of yourself. In context, Quran 41:9-12 is NOT describing...

    Islam is a false religion per Quran itself.

    What nonsense are you talking about??? The reality is - there’s nothing that binds them to be caring, responsible, and committed to each other, other than just their words, and we know too well how people can change their words! Try to get a housing loan from any financial institution based...

    Islam is a false religion per Quran itself.

    So I take that as your admission that you are the result of the immoral act of your ‘father’ and mother and you are trying to convince everyone here that there’s nothing to be ashamed of being a bast*rd because fornication is not immoral. OK. Got it! You really cannot understand what you read...

    Qur'an 2:256 and the sophistry it inspires.

    NOPE. Once again you are demonstrating your inability to understand context and what you read. Quran 41:9-12 IS NOT describing God creating the earth before the visible stars. What is clear here is your ignorance and inability to understand what is written. I have already explained Quran...

    Qur'an 2:256 and the sophistry it inspires.

    OK, what are the 'errors' in the Quran, but give me real evidence of those errors, not just copy and paste from some anti-Islam sites.
