      You should hear them in Aramaic. Absolutely beautiful! Especially thinking that Jesus himself said these words when on earth. My daughter doesn’t want to go to any other mass but the Chaldean mass. At first she didn’t understand why she needed to learn our language. And I told her because we’re a very small minority of people on earth that still speak the language Jesus spoke. If we don’t continue it, it will die. She was like ‘Jesus spoke our language, that’s so cool!’ 😅

      ​@@omnikevlar2338 Yes, morality comes from God, but logic and reasoning can be done on our own. We are called to decide about God on our own, aren't we? That being said, it can be objectively PROVEN with basic logic that, for example, pedophilia is bad. Children are highly impressionable and are not mentally or emotionally ready. That is why most countries have age of consent laws, which don't consider children's "consent" as real since their brains are still developing. So, we can conclude that pedophilia is bad. So, the only way a religion could say that such a thing is morally correct is if that religion says that doing evil is actually morally right in the eyes of God. Muhammad had a 9 year old wife, yet promoted doing the right thing. We know from logic and reasoning that having a 9 year old wife is mentally destructive for the child, and therefore selfish, so how can Muhammad say to be selfless and to not do evil?

    Before I became a Christian, as a Westerner poisoned against Christianity, I first looked into Islam. It was attractive. I liked it. But it was obviously manmade. It's the kind of monotheistic religion most guys would invent. Nice rules. Easy self justification. Great incentives for believing. No concept of intrinsic sin. Not a bad way to order a mediaeval society. The Christian message was almost the opposite..but thanks be to God for his graces there is a way. A bunch of guys would not sit around and create Christianity. Yeah, I'm poisoned with sin from before birth that I can do nothing about. There's laws I can follow but cannot hope to keep. My God died on a cross after being tortured and asked me to live a life shaped like his suffering. Don't think you can earn your way into heaven your one and only hope is to throw yourself upon God's mercy. And the pattern to follow is dying to oneself. Not human, clearly divine.

      The sermon on the mount is a higher law. The 10 commandments are God's lowest revealed law for an obstinate and unworthy people. It isn't logical to assume that the people of Enoch were living solely the Ten Commandments when they were raised into the heavens.
      That is why Paul said things like "Milk before meat" and that he had much more to teach if the people were not "dull of hearing" Christ would give us his disciples more laws if they were able to keep the ones they have.

      Stories like genesis, or main prophets in essence are always true because many sources and religions transmit the same story. But when a religion claims a new invention, it needs evidence no one can produce.

    Currently reading through the Quran. I agree with Antony Flume, "To read the Quran is to do penance".
    The biggest problem for the Quran and Islam though is that Surah 3:3 tells us that the Torah and Gospel are divinely inspired by God. Which means that either the Quran is wrong and they aren't, meaning that Islam is false, or the Quran is correct, meaning that Muhammad is a false prophet because the Gospel teaches Jesus death, deity and resurection, all of which the Quran deny. It also says the trinity is comprised of Allah, Jesus, and Mary.
    Not to mention the whole Jesus was replaced and only made to appear crucified means that Allah led the entire Christian community in to shirk, the only unpardonable sin in Islam, for no discernible benefit, and didn't correct anyone for over 500 years.

      Okay Christian here, and let me try and explain to you the reasoning why muslims say they know about Jesus than those who wrote the Bible even after 500 years or so from His resurrection, well simply it's because they are muslims and believe that the quran is directly from God, so if God wrote it then how can it be wrong, and so if must be the disciples who were lying or misrepresented what actually happened,

      @@mojojojo3852This is an argument they could use, but this is why it’s important to have an understanding of the differences between the Quran and the Bible. It’s also important to know some teachings of Muhammad, how the Quran was formed, and the contradictory nature of the Quran/Mohammad especially since he confirmed the Bible.
      If Muhammad confirmed the Bible, then how could it be corrupted? If Jesus was accompanied by signs and miracles why did Muhammad say that he did NOT perform miracles? Moreover, why does the character of Muhammad seem to contradict the character of Jesus? Muhammad took in multiple wives, including a child, said one would commit adultery, that taking a woman captive and having s** with her was not adultery, and that in heaven, apparently women are seen as objects in Islam.
      Again, I’d check out Sam. He is masterful in getting people to understand the differences between Christianity and Islam.

      The Aramaic word for God is "Alaha". It's the word Isa PBUH used. Sounds familiar?
      Written without the confusing vowels it is written A-L-H ܐ ܠܗܐ (alap-lamed-he) as found in Targum or in Tanakh (Daniel, Ezra), Syriac Aramaic (Peshitta), reduced from the Arabic original (of which Aramaic is a dialect continuum as will be explained) it is written in the Arabic script 'A-L-L-H' (Aleph-Lam-Lam-Ha) add an A before the last H for vocalization.
      The word God in another rendition in Hebrew ʾĕlōah is derived from a base ʾilāh, an Arabic word, written without confusing vowel it is A-L-H in the Arabic script, pronounced ilah not eloah. Hebrew dropped the glottal stop and mumbled it, aramic mumbled a little less and it became elaha. Infact both are written written A-L-H in Arabic, it is pronounced i in Arabic and not A because it is an Alef with hamza below (إ أ ) They are two different forms of Alef. And it mean "a god", it is the non definitive form of A-L-L-H, in which the Alef is without a glottal stop/hamza,(ا), but this kind of nuance is lost in the dialect continua.
      infact "YHWH" itself is an Arabic word as discussed by Professor. Israel Knohl (Professor of Biblical studies at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem) in the paper" YHWH: The Original Arabic Meaning of the Name."
      jesus as his name is often misspelled due to the lack of the ayin sound in Greek, which was rendered to Iesous, coupling the nearest sound to ayin, same letter found in 'Iraq', which sounds entirely different in Arabic form 'Iran' in Arabic, with the -ous Greek suffix that Greeks typically add to their names 'HerodotOS', 'PlotinUS', 'AchelOUS' and later mumbled into a J. The yeshua rendition of Isa (his name in the Qur'an) PBUH which is purported to be the name of Jesus is KNOWN to had been taken from greek. Western Syriac also use "Isho". Western Aramaic (separate from Syriac which is a dialect of Eastern Aramaic) use "Yeshu". Western Syriac has been separate from Western Aramaic for about 1000 years. And sounds don't even match up. Syriac is a Christian liturgical language yet the four letters of the name of Jesus «ܝܫܘܥ» [ = Judeo-Babylonian Aramaic: «ישוע» ] sounds totally different in West vs East Syriac, viz. vocalized akin to Christian Arabic, Hebrew, Aramaic «ܝܶܫܽܘܥ» (Yēšūʿ) in West Syriac, but pronounced more akin to Muslim Arabic Quran character name Isa in East Syriac «ܝܑܼܫܘܿܥ» (ʾĪšōʿ). The reason for this confusion is their dropping of phonemes. Only someone that has no idea what the letters are or how they sound would have a name ending in a pharyngeal fricative like the ayin, if it were to be used in a name it would have had to be in the beginning, thus the Arabic rendition is the correct one. An example in English is how the appended -d is a common error amongst the English pronouncing Gaelic names. The name Donald arose from a common English mispronunciation of the Gaelic name Donal. Just how it is with donal becoming donald and the two becoming distinct and the original being regarded as something seperate so too did Isa PBUH turn to Iesous turn to jesus and when they tried going back to the original they confused it for yeshua ( ysu is how it is actually written) for Isa PBUH ( 3'eysah )
      Schlözer in his preparation for the Arabia expedition in 1781 coined the term Semitic language:
      "From the Mediterranean to the Euphrates, from Mesopotamia to Arabia ruled one language, as is well known. Thus Syrians, Babylonians, Hebrews, and Arabs were one people (ein Volk). Phoenicians (Hamites) also spoke this language, which I would like to call the Semitic (die Semitische)." -Before Boas: The Genesis of Ethnography and Ethnology in the German By Han F. Vermeulen.
      He was only half right though, Arabic is the only corollary to "proto-semitic", infact the whole semitic classification is nonsensical as will be shown.

      ص, ض (ṣ, ḍ/Tsad ) merged into only ḍ/Tsad consonant remaining
      ع, غ (3'ayn, Ghayn) merged into a reducted ayin consonant remaining
      ت, ث (t/taw, th) merged into only t/taw consonant remaining
      The reason why the protoS alphabet here is 28 and not 29, is because the supposed extra letter is simply a س written in a different position, but it was shoehorned to obfuscated. In Arabic letter shapes are different depending on whether they are in the beginning , middle or end of a word.
      No such thing as the bible, the new testament is a concoction of several books that were deemed canonical, books written in Greek that were given the hellenized names of Apotsles who neither wrote, nor spoke greek to give it an illusion of antiquity, much like the calendar we have today, which was established in the year 535 CE by Dionysus Exegesis so too was the original message altered to that of the pauline credo, a digestible religion to the yet to be converted greeks who had no desire to follow the mosaic laws. None of the disciples spoke of trinity, ate pork or proclaimed it is allowable to do so, yet the miracle begotten paul, whom peter called him enemy, introduced his new creed according to his whims, often boastful of his innovations he said " I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles." There is no passage in Paul inconsistent with these quotations; no passage suggesting that the admission of the gentiles into the Christian church was an idea of Jesus, or that it was accepted by the twelve apostles in Jerusalem before the conversion of Paul, or that he received any instruction from them or acknowledged any duty of obedience or submission to them. This gospel which Paul preached and which, according to his boast, was original with him, included many tenets not found in the four gospels or not set forth there in unmistakable terms. By implication, it repudiated the ascetic and communistic maxims of the synoptic gospels, It proclaimed the abrogation of the Mosaic ceremonial law. It proclaimed that the unsearchable riches of Christ were to be distributed as freely among the Gentiles as among the Jews. It announced itself as a new and independent religion; and popular speech recognized the correctness of the claim by calling its adherents Christians, and their doctrine Christianity.
      Language; When one looks at the actual linguistics, one will find that many were puzzled by the opposite, that is, how the other "semetic" languages were more "evolved" than Arabic, while Arabic had archaic features, not only archaic compared to bibilical Hebrew, Ethiopic, "Aramaic" contemporary "semetic" languages, but even archaic compared to languages from ancient antiquity; Ugaritic, Akkadain. What is meant here by Archaic is not what most readers think, it is Archaic not in the sense that it is simple, but rather that it is complex (think Latin to pig Latin or Italian or Old English, which had genders and case endings to modern English), not only grammatically, but also phonetically; All the so called semitic languages are supposed to have evolved from protosemetic, the Alphabet for protosemitic is that of the so called Ancient South Arabian (which interestingly corresponds with the traditional Arabic origins account) and has 28 Phonemes. Arabic has 28 phonemes. Hebrew has 22, same as Aramaic, and other "semitic" languages. Now pause for a second and think about it, how come Arabic, a language that is supposed to have come so late has the same number of letters as a language that supposedly predates it by over a millennium (Musnad script ~1300 BCE). Not only is the glossary of phonemes more diverse than any other semitic language, but the grammar is more complex, containing more cases and retains what's linguists noted for its antiquity, broken plurals. Indeed, a linguist has once noted that if one were to take everything we know about languages and how they develop, Arabic is older than Akkadian (~2500 BCE).
      Now how is it that the Qur'an came thousands of years later in an alphabet that had never been recorded before, and in the highest form the language had ever taken?
      The creator is neither bound by time nor space, therefore the names are uttered as they truly were, in a language that is lexically, syntactically, phonemically, and semantically older than the oldest recorded writing. In fact, that writing appears to have been a simplified version of it. Not only that, but it would be the equivalent of the greatest works of any particular language all appearing in one book, in a perfect script and in the highest form the language could ever take. It is so high in fact, that it had yet to be surpassed despite the fact that over the last millennium the collection of Arabic manuscripts when compared on word-per-word basis in Western Museums alone, when they are compared with the collected Greek and Latin manuscripts combined, the latter does not constitute 1 percent of the former as per German professor Frank Griffel, in addition all in a script that had never been recorded before. Thus, the enlightenment of mankind from barbarism and savagery began, and the age of reason and rationality was born from its study.

      First, keep Talmud aside, it is not inspired Book.
      Second, Jesus never claimed that he is God but son of God, Jews misunderstood this as God. Jesus clearly said ,he is not seeking his glory but glory of his father , who is God of Jesus and Jews.
      Third, The teachings of Jesus is on line of monotheisim . He never diverted from this idea. The old testament was for Jews till the arrival of Messiah (Jesus) , after that they have to follow Jesus, accept his teachings and spread Christianity all over the world, there by spreading of light of good news all over the world. But they rejected him ,even killed him .
      Romans killed Jesus not because he was threat to them . The Roman governor Pontius Pilate don't want kill Jesus, but under the pressure of Jews leaders and public, he was forced to do so.

If Jesus said he was only the Son of God (which he is) Then that still proves Islam is false since Allah says in the Quran he's a father to nobody since he has no consort (Spouse/girlfriend). No Christian denies Jesus is the Son of God. You just are confusing The Father= God Alone. Otherwise throughout Scripture and early church writings Jesus is called Lord. Do Muslims believe that Jesus is they're lord?

      In Bible Jesus, angels, earthly rulers and judges are also called gods ,with small g, even SATAN is called god of wicked people. This doesn't means, they are ALMIGHTY, CREATOR GOD.
      In Bible, Angels and men are also sons of God, , this doesn't mean he produced Angels and men through any woman. This is unimaginable, unthinkable and detestable. What human and animals do to bore children, don't apply on God.
      God doesn't produces, he creates. He created Jesus,angels and men ,for this reason he is called their Father .
      When someone invents or introduces something new ,he is credited with the title of 'The Father', for example, Galileo is called Father of physics, Gandhi is called Father of nation, Picasso is called Father of modern art. This doesn't means,they made relations with women to invent or introduce something.
      Moreover, in Arabic , people use terms like IBNE WATAN and IBNE ZUBAN, mean son of country and son of language, does this means country and language produced son through women. See languages allow us to use such terms.

      Actually they understand that part of the Gospel. They reject the idea of sacrificial atonement because the Quran teaches that no one else can bear the sins of another. They don't understand that Jesus as God can do as He pleases and can sacrifice himself for us sinners. This is why apologists treat this as a side issue and instead focus on showing the evidence of Jesus as God.

      The Aramaic word for God is "Alaha". It's the word Isa PBUH used. Sounds familiar?
      Written without the confusing vowels it is written A-L-H ܐ ܠܗܐ (alap-lamed-he) as found in Targum or in Tanakh (Daniel, Ezra), Syriac Aramaic (Peshitta), reduced from the Arabic original (of which Aramaic is a dialect continuum as will be explained) it is written in the Arabic script 'A-L-L-H' (Aleph-Lam-Lam-Ha) add an A before the last H for vocalization.
      The word God in another rendition in Hebrew ʾĕlōah is derived from a base ʾilāh, an Arabic word, written without confusing vowel it is A-L-H in the Arabic script, pronounced ilah not eloah. Hebrew dropped the glottal stop and mumbled it, aramic mumbled a little less and it became elaha. Infact both are written written A-L-H in Arabic, it is pronounced i in Arabic and not A because it is an Alef with hamza below (إ أ ) They are two different forms of Alef. And it mean "a god", it is the non definitive form of A-L-L-H, in which the Alef is without a glottal stop/hamza,(ا), but this kind of nuance is lost in the dialect continua.
      infact "YHWH" itself is an Arabic word as discussed by Professor. Israel Knohl (Professor of Biblical studies at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem) in the paper" YHWH: The Original Arabic Meaning of the Name."
      jesus as his name is often misspelled due to the lack of the ayin sound in Greek, which was rendered to Iesous, coupling the nearest sound to ayin, same letter found in 'Iraq', which sounds entirely different in Arabic form 'Iran' in Arabic, with the -ous Greek suffix that Greeks typically add to their names 'HerodotOS', 'PlotinUS', 'AchelOUS' and later mumbled into a J. The yeshua rendition of Isa (his name in the Qur'an) PBUH which is purported to be the name of Jesus is KNOWN to had been taken from greek. Western Syriac also use "Isho". Western Aramaic (separate from Syriac which is a dialect of Eastern Aramaic) use "Yeshu". Western Syriac has been separate from Western Aramaic for about 1000 years. And sounds don't even match up. Syriac is a Christian liturgical language yet the four letters of the name of Jesus «ܝܫܘܥ» [ = Judeo-Babylonian Aramaic: «ישוע» ] sounds totally different in West vs East Syriac, viz. vocalized akin to Christian Arabic, Hebrew, Aramaic «ܝܶܫܽܘܥ» (Yēšūʿ) in West Syriac, but pronounced more akin to Muslim Arabic Quran character name Isa in East Syriac «ܝܑܼܫܘܿܥ» (ʾĪšōʿ). The reason for this confusion is their dropping of phonemes. Only someone that has no idea what the letters are or how they sound would have a name ending in a pharyngeal fricative like the ayin, if it were to be used in a name it would have had to be in the beginning, thus the Arabic rendition is the correct one. An example in English is how the appended -d is a common error amongst the English pronouncing Gaelic names. The name Donald arose from a common English mispronunciation of the Gaelic name Donal. Just how it is with donal becoming donald and the two becoming distinct and the original being regarded as something seperate so too did Isa PBUH turn to Iesous turn to jesus and when they tried going back to the original they confused it for yeshua ( ysu is how it is actually written) for Isa PBUH ( 3'eysah )
      Schlözer in his preparation for the Arabia expedition in 1781 coined the term Semitic language:
      "From the Mediterranean to the Euphrates, from Mesopotamia to Arabia ruled one language, as is well known. Thus Syrians, Babylonians, Hebrews, and Arabs were one people (ein Volk). Phoenicians (Hamites) also spoke this language, which I would like to call the Semitic (die Semitische)." -Before Boas: The Genesis of Ethnography and Ethnology in the German By Han F. Vermeulen.
      He was only half right though, Arabic is the only corollary to "proto-semitic", infact the whole semitic classification is nonsensical as will be shown.

      The reason why the protoS alphabet here is 28 and not 29, is because the supposed extra letter is simply a س written in a different position, but it was shoehorned to obfuscated. In Arabic letter shapes are different depending on whether they are in the beginning , middle or end of a word.
      No such thing as the bible, the new testament is a concoction of several books that were deemed canonical, books written in Greek that were given the hellenized names of Apotsles who neither wrote, nor spoke greek to give it an illusion of antiquity, much like the calendar we have today, which was established in the year 535 CE by Dionysus Exegesis so too was the original message altered to that of the pauline credo, a digestible religion to the yet to be converted greeks who had no desire to follow the mosaic laws. None of the disciples spoke of trinity, ate pork or proclaimed it is allowable to do so, yet the miracle begotten paul, whom peter called him enemy, introduced his new creed according to his whims, often boastful of his innovations he said " I was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles." There is no passage in Paul inconsistent with these quotations; no passage suggesting that the admission of the gentiles into the Christian church was an idea of Jesus, or that it was accepted by the twelve apostles in Jerusalem before the conversion of Paul, or that he received any instruction from them or acknowledged any duty of obedience or submission to them. This gospel which Paul preached and which, according to his boast, was original with him, included many tenets not found in the four gospels or not set forth there in unmistakable terms. By implication, it repudiated the ascetic and communistic maxims of the synoptic gospels, It proclaimed the abrogation of the Mosaic ceremonial law. It proclaimed that the unsearchable riches of Christ were to be distributed as freely among the Gentiles as among the Jews. It announced itself as a new and independent religion; and popular speech recognized the correctness of the claim by calling its adherents Christians, and their doctrine Christianity.
      Language; When one looks at the actual linguistics, one will find that many were puzzled by the opposite, that is, how the other "semetic" languages were more "evolved" than Arabic, while Arabic had archaic features, not only archaic compared to bibilical Hebrew, Ethiopic, "Aramaic" contemporary "semetic" languages, but even archaic compared to languages from ancient antiquity; Ugaritic, Akkadain. What is meant here by Archaic is not what most readers think, it is Archaic not in the sense that it is simple, but rather that it is complex (think Latin to pig Latin or Italian or Old English, which had genders and case endings to modern English), not only grammatically, but also phonetically; All the so called semitic languages are supposed to have evolved from protosemetic, the Alphabet for protosemitic is that of the so called Ancient South Arabian (which interestingly corresponds with the traditional Arabic origins account) and has 28 Phonemes. Arabic has 28 phonemes. Hebrew has 22, same as Aramaic, and other "semitic" languages. Now pause for a second and think about it, how come Arabic, a language that is supposed to have come so late has the same number of letters as a language that supposedly predates it by over a millennium (Musnad script ~1300 BCE). Not only is the glossary of phonemes more diverse than any other semitic language, but the grammar is more complex, containing more cases and retains what's linguists noted for its antiquity, broken plurals. Indeed, a linguist has once noted that if one were to take everything we know about languages and how they develop, Arabic is older than Akkadian (~2500 BCE).
      Now how is it that the Qur'an came thousands of years later in an alphabet that had never been recorded before, and in the highest form the language had ever taken?
      The creator is neither bound by time nor space, therefore the names are uttered as they truly were, in a language that is lexically, syntactically, phonemically, and semantically older than the oldest recorded writing. In fact, that writing appears to have been a simplified version of it. Not only that, but it would be the equivalent of the greatest works of any particular language all appearing in one book, in a perfect script and in the highest form the language could ever take. It is so high in fact, that it had yet to be surpassed despite the fact that over the last millennium the collection of Arabic manuscripts when compared on word-per-word basis in Western Museums alone, when they are compared with the collected Greek and Latin manuscripts combined, the latter does not constitute 1 percent of the former as per German professor Frank Griffel, in addition all in a script that had never been recorded before. Thus, the enlightenment of mankind from barbarism and savagery began, and the age of reason and rationality was born from its study.

It announced itself as a new and independent religion; and popular speech recognized the correctness of the claim by calling its adherents Christians, and their doctrine Christianity.
      Paul had neither met nor seen Jesus, his relation to the twelve apostles was one of decided independence and even of opposition. He acknowledged no subordination to them. He addressed no doctrinal epistle to them or their churches, and received none from them. He made no reports to them. He did not correspond with them regularly. They never invited him to preach to their congregations and he never invited them to address his converts. He declared that he did not owe his conversion, his baptism, or his doctrine to the twelve, and that he never spent any long time in Jerusalem or in Judea as a Christian missionary. He claimed to be an apostle by a secret divine commission, but the twelve never admitted the validity of his claim. They never gave him the title of apostle; they never said anything indicative of willingness to admit him into their councils. Vacancies occurred in their number, but they never chose him to a vacant place, rather we have statements of Peter with regards to Paul which show nothing but animosity:
      "And if our Jesus appeared to you also and became known in a vision and met you as angry with an enemy [recall: Paul had his vision while still persecuting the Christians: Acts 9], yet he has spoken only through visions and dreams or through external revelations. But can anyone be made competent to teach through a vision? And if your opinion is that that is possible, why then did our teacher spend a whole year with us who were awake? How can we believe you even if he has appeared to you?… But if you were visited by him for the space of an hour and were instructed by him and thereby have become an apostle, then proclaim his words, expound what he has taught, be a friend to his apostles and do not contend with me, who am his confidant; for you have in hostility withstood me, who am a firm rock, the foundation stone of the Church"
      -Homily 17 Section XIX
      On the pauline credo currently called trinitanity Peter said
      "For some from among the Gentiles have rejected my lawful preaching and have preferred a lawless and absurd doctrine to the man who is my enemy. And indeed some have attempted, while I am still alive, to distort my words by interpretations of many sorts, as if I taught the dissolution of the law… But that may God forbid ! For to do such a thing means to act contrary to the Law of God which was made to Moses and was confirmed by our Lord in its everlasting continuance. For he said, “The heaven and the earth will pass away, but not one jot or one tittle shall pass away from the Law.”
      -Letter of Peter to James, 2.3-5
      The old testament is no different, Abijah was a wicked king, and had war with his rival (1. Kings 15:3).
      2 Chronicles 13:3 says that Abjiah was pious ; that he took the field with 400,000 men against Jeroboam, who was at the head of 800,000 men ; and in a great battle the King of Israel was defeated, and 500,000 of his men slain.
      It seems that, 1,200,000 soldiers sent into the field at one time by two Ssmall tribes, ana the destruction of 500,000 men in one battle, were beneath the notice of the author of Kings.
      the word עוֹלֵל, ʿôlēl which means 'Babe, infant, little one, a suckling' occurs 21 King James Bible Verses Of these verses:
      “Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.”
      -Psalm 137:9
      “Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.”
      -1 Samuel 15:3
      “Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword: their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up.”
      -Hosea 13:16
      The other verses are not much different. Infact it is always in association with violence. This is the polar opposite in the Quran in Surah Al-Tanwir, literally "The Englightenining" Surah, Aya 8-9, we have the death of a newborn is mentioned amongst the penultimate signs of the end of times, emphasizing the gravity of such an action. That child, now resurrected, is asked for what wrong doing was she murdered. This is to emphasize that she had done nothing wrong, for she is an infant and this is the day of retribution where those who committed the evil are to be punished. Sins are not inherited by the offspring, this is a doctrine that was developed much later in christianity into what is now called the original sin.
      This is the polar opposite in the Qur'an, Surah Al-Ma'idah, Aya 32 (5:32), emphasizes the sanctity of human life. It instructs the Children of Israel that killing an innocent person is a grave sin, akin to killing all of humanity. On the other hand, saving a life is regarded as a virtuous act equivalent to saving all of humanity. The exceptions mentioned for justifiable killing include cases of murder or spreading mischief in the land. Despite the clear guidance given by messengers, some individuals persisted in wrongdoing.
      The modifiable testament testament genocide, plunder, mutilation, enslavement, on the other hand.Surah Al-Baqara Aya 190 limits war to those who fight against Muslims, prohibits transgression, and implies respect for human dignity and life Indeed it is what precedes the famous "sword verse", always cited out of context.
      Rationality was only born with Islam, those who cannot count have nothing to say, at the end of the day 1+1+1 will never equal 1

      Buddhism is one of the hardest ones to engage with. It took me a few hours of research to identify that Buddhism is an atheistic religion and not because even I can point to their Scriptures But rather from comments from ordinary Buddhists. This is one of the reasons why athiests subscribe to Buddhism.
      The best response I have to Buddhism is to ask them, "If there is no God, who is keeping track of your good and bad deeds (sins) and determining what you are reborn as? Who is sending your soul/spirit into the next body? Who determines when you can break out of the cycle of Samsara (life, death and rebirth) and achieve Moksha (liberation from Samsara)?"

      I hear people saying that Buddhism is similar to Christianity and I get so confused. It's a fundamentally selfish religion that doesn't concern itself with gods and in which "salvation" is merely a state of mindless contentment where the adherent is ultimately cut off from all relationships. Reincarnation, an eternal universe, karma - these have nothing to do with Christianity.

    (I did get this from Wikipedia, so you can make of it what you will.) Interestingly, the Virgin Mary is mentioned in the Quran more often than she is mentioned in the Bible (70 times). She is described as the greatest woman who ever lived. Her birth sort of gets all mixed up with the birth and dedication of Samuel, and they also get her mixed up with Miriam, the sister of Moses and Aaron. However, the Quran also says the angel Gabriel spoke with Mary, and that the divine spirit caused her to become pregnant though she was a virgin. It goes on to say that she gave birth to "Isa" (Jesus), who was the "Anointed One", or the Messiah. The Quran also describes Mary's perpetual virginity. In another search, I learned that the Quran teaches that Jesus did many miracles, which begs the question of why they think that Jesus was only a prophet. (I thought that was interesting, since you mentioned that Muhammed never did any miracles.) They believe in Jesus' Ascension, but not His crucifixion. They just think He never died.

And those who are pregnant, their term, the conclusion of their prescribed [waiting] period if divorced or if their spouses be dead, shall be when they deliver.

      "The `Iddah of Those in Menopause and Those Who do not have Menses
      Allah the Exalted clarifies the waiting period of the woman in menopause. And that is the one whose menstruation has stopped due to her older age. Her `Iddah is three months instead of the three monthly cycles for those who menstruate, which is based upon the Ayah in (Surat) Al-Baqarah. see 2:228 _The same for the young, who have not reached the years of menstruation. Their `Iddah is three months like those in menopause._ This is the meaning of His saying;

      _"They may not have menstruated as yet either because of young age,_ or delayed menstrual discharge as it happens in the case of some women, or because of no discharge at all throughout life which, though rare, may also be the case. In any case, the waiting-period of such a woman is the same as of the woman, who has stopped menstruation, that is three months from the time divorce was pronounced.
      Here, one should bear in mind the fact that according to the explanations given in the Qur'an the question of the waiting period arises in respect of the women with whom marriage may have been consummated, for there is no waiting-period in case divorce is pronounced before the consummation of marriage. (Al-Ahzab: 49). Therefore, _making mention of the waiting-period for the girls who have not yet menstruated, clearly proves that it is not only permissible to give away the girl in marriage at this age but it is also permissible for the husband to consummate marriage with her._ Now, obviously no Muslim has the right to forbid a thing which the Qur'an has held as permissible."

And what is the waiting period of the pregnant woman?’ And so Allah, exalted is He, revealed this verse”. Abu Ishaq al-Muqri’ informed us> Muhammad ibn ‘Abd Allah ibn Hamdun> Makki ibn ‘Abdan> Abu’l-Azhar> Asbat ibn Muhammad> Mutarrif> Abu ‘Uthman ‘Amr ibn Salim who said: “When the waiting period for divorced and widowed women was mentioned in Surah al-Baqarah, Ubayy ibn Ka‘b said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, some women of Medina are saying: there are other women who have not been mentioned!’ He asked him: ‘And who are they?’ He said: _‘Those who are too young [such that they have not started menstruating yet],_ those who are too old [whose menstruation has stopped] and those who are pregnant’.

It says to fight them. Obviously they have the chance to leave or simply pay the tax. If the Quran told Muslims to kill non believers, 2 billion Muslims, think about it this world would be mayhem. Non Muslims go to Muslim countries all the time and have a great time. So stop with the Islamophobia.

So, while this is an anecdote, they do use this as evidence. Even though it's no real proof. People cry because the chant recitation can be quite haunting, but so is Latin or Byzantine style chant (of which Islamic chant style seems to borrow from). And thet music forms too. I've spontaneously cried at a recording of a performance of a medieval version of Te Deum. It's no proof in of iself.

    Hi Trent,
    I have been watching this channel for a long time and it has helped me greatly to explain my faith to others. I cannot say that I have helped anyone convert yet, but it has definitively helped me to make Catholicism approchable and respectable for those who generally mock Christianity, which happens a lot in the environnement I grew up in.
    Anyway, you started your video by asking us what you would like us to hear about and I have one subject that I am more than curious about. The SSPX.
    I have converted to catholicism through one of their parish where I found a solid group of friends and a great priest. I was even confirmed in the Faith through one of their Bishops. However, as time went on, I became more and more aware of the conflict within the Church and SSPX to a point where I do not know where I ought to sit. Subjectively, everything seems to point to me that the SSPX is good, I have met true friends there, I met my girlfriend which I plan to marry this year, I met a very, very good priest, I have put my life straight and learned to pray my rosary daily. And most of all, thus far, after reading a few of the works of Msgr. Lefevbre and the SSPX and reading Dignitatis Humanae, I seem to agree with their position, or at least, with their critic of what they call the "post-conciliar church".
    However, I am very aware that I might have been mislead and that a position of open disobedience to the last five popes is a dangerous one to hold and that does not seem to have worked a lot of time through Church's history and so, it is a position that makes me uncomfortable to hold.
    As I said, you have played a good part for the betterment of my faith in the past and I have come to the point where I need clear answers about the SSPX. I am probably going to get married in one of their parish this year, and, I know that a marriage without jurisdiction might be invalid. I need to understand what I am taking part in.
    It would help me Trent. Thank you for everything you do!
    God bless you.

The spread of the message of love caused the Arabian warlords to create a religion that would enable men to fight in their wars and conquests; instead of proclaiming peace and love. It is why Islam is the only religion based on violence. Jesus always was and always will be God, before during and after becoming man. After choosing the Israelites to be the chosen people He gave the prophets the wisdom to know that a Messiah would come. See for example Isaiah 53.
      No one can fully understand the nature of God or the Trinity. For that reason the mystery of the Most Holy Trinity is the central mystery of the Christian faith and of Christian life. God alone can make it known to us by revealing himself as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Jesus frequently referred to the Father. The revelation of the Trinity during Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit descended on the Apostles for example enables theologians to now see the hints in the Old Testament about the Trinity. For example in Genesis it says that in beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The original Hebrew used the word Elohim which means Gods. Why does God refer to Himself in the plural? In Genesis 1:4 He says that man was made in “our image”.
      The wages of sin is death. For that reasons Jesus offered His life on the Cross to the Father for our sins. Whoever believes in Him shall have eternal life. After His body died, Jesus (with body) resurrected and ascended into Heaven. Have a look at the miracles of the Shroud of Turin and the Eucharistic miracle at Buenos Aires in 1996. Our Lady called Muslims to Christianity at Zeitoun. All these things will pay you well to research.

Anyone who believes in the name of Jesus and repents will be saved. You are a following a man who doesn't know where he is going. You need to leave Mohammed.

    If both Muslims and Christians agree that the devil is real, but then both parties should be on the lookout for ways that we could be deceived. Even if something about either the Quran or the Bible is impossible for a human to create, we still have to ask if it’s impossible for the devil to create! If Jesus was given new life after death, this is impossible for devil to perform. But making an eloquent book is well within satan’s capability as far as I can see.

    Where did Prophet Muhammad(PBUH) learn all this knowledge since he couldn't read or write? Let's examine your claims of how he might have learned this knowledge.
    => He might have heard it from someone else like from some Arabic poets. Yes, some Arabic poetry at the time of Prophet Muhammad(PBUH) was what you call spiritual but that poetry didn't contain any scientific or historical facts that the Quran has.
    => He might have heard it from a person who knew the Bible.
    There are two arguments that I would like to present against it.
    a. Number one the first bible that was translated into Arabic was two hundred years after the Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) death. So it is very unlikely that someone around him had the knowledge of the Bible.
    b. Number two if somehow a person near him exists who can read the Bible in some other language then how come Prophet Muhammad(PBUH) didn't copy the contradictions and mistakes of the Bible in the Quran?
    One example of this can be The Bible calls the ruler of Egypt during the time of Abraham “Pharaoh”(Genesis 12:18), The ruler of Egypt during the time of Joseph “Pharaoh” (Genesis 41:46), And of course, the ruler of Egypt during the time of Moses “Pharaoh”(Exodus 2:15).
    However, this is a historical blunder by the Bible. The word “Pharaoh” was never used to refer to the ruler of Egypt during the time of Abraham and Joseph. The earliest instance that “Pharaoh” is used to refer to the ruler of Egypt is during the reign of Amenophis IV, hundreds of years into the New Kingdom Period. Both Abraham and Joseph were before the New Kingdom Period.
    What does the Qur’an say about this? If the Qur’an copied from the Bible, surely it must have this error as well. In the Qur’an, the term “Pharaoh” is never used to refer to someone before the New Kingdom Period. The ruler of Egypt during the time of Joseph is called a “King” and never a Pharaoh. Additionally, the Qur’an calls the ruler of Egypt during the time of Moses “Pharaoh”.
    This means that the Qur’an is perfectly historically accurate with its usage of this word, unlike the Bible.

    But most of this applies to the Bible too,
    The Bible is very eloquent and has very powerful text, it’s written in a great language just translated, it can be recited by memory by a lot of people perfectly, and some cry when reading it,
    However Christians hardly use these points as points for the Bible being divinely written

    The ramining The Skeptic's Annotated Quranic contradictions answers.
    11. Will Allah forgive anything?
    Forgiveness is the discretion of god, "Despair not of the mercy of Allah, Who forgiveth all sins." is a declaration to say, God is the one who forgives all sins (not anyone else). This doesn't mean that no matter what you do you will be forgiven. Only that god is the one who forgives all the sins.
    In the other verse you quote, it actually explains it in the omitted part. "Lo! Allah forgiveth not that a partner should be ascribed unto Him." you missed the part where it says "He forgiveth (all) save that to whom He will." Hence it is discretionary of god to give forgiveness. Yet he is the one that forgiveth all sins.
    12. How many angels fought for Muhammad?
    This is a reference to two separate battles.
    13. Is each person free to believe (or disbelieve) in whatever he or she wants?
    Well, this isn't really a contradiction is it? You can believe what you want, but you won't go to heaven in some cases.
    Also disbelievers does not mean people that "don't believe". In the Arabic text it means people that know the truth, but try to shun it anyway (for personal gain). Apparently there is no word for that in english, so disbelievers suffice for now.
    14. How long did it take to create the heavens and the earth?
    Notice how you have to add them up?
    It's still six days, because it he doesn't wait for the 4 days of spreading the earth to finish before creating the heavens. Remember above of which it says the heaven was created and then he spread the earth? Well here we have it. The creation of the heaven is a seperate even from that of earth and spreading it. They interpolate into each other.
    15. What was man created from?
    They're all true...
    You see, dust and clay refers to the same substance (in the arabic), actually 90% of dust is supposedly made up of skin anyhow.
    Water - the body is made up of 80% water if you didn't know.
    Clot - This is reffering to conception, you know... Zygotes. You didn't expect it to say zygotes did you?
    Clay, Mud or Dust - This is reffering the carbon we are made up of.
    They're all true, we aren't made up of one thing.
    16. Is Allah merciful?
    Mercy is referring to god allowing and prolonging the life of those who oppose him so that they may believe and then he would forgive all sins. If you check the history, there's a long line of people that killed many muslims (some family of Muhammed) and God forgave them and made them muslims. That is mercy...
    As for the sealing up of the hearing and the sight, this is referring to what happens when people take a biased stance against something. They completely ignore it's merits. This is in referrence to everyone (perhaps even you, reader) that disbelieves in the Koran vehemently, because they refuse to know of it's good.
    This law of life god attributes to himself for he created our minds.
    17. Does Allah make distinctions between His messengers?
    The quote is a prayer of which Muslims recite and say "We make no distinction between any of His (god's) messengers." (Notice the "His", this isn't god's words) whereas the other is God saying he has caused some to excel the others.
    There's no contradiction because Muslims don't "make no distinction between any of His messengers.", not god.
    Check the context, it is something Muslims recite, not god's words.
    18. Who was the first Muslim?
    Notice how these are the words of the Apostles and not god?
    The respected prophets are talking about in their time, not of all time.
    19. Did one of Noah's sons die in the flood?
    Noah's family were saved from the flood and they were made the survivors, the seed of Noah prevailed... but not ALL of his family. It only mentions that his family were saved, not that his entire family were saved. He actually had many wives...
    The verse saying one of his sons died compliments the other verse and doesn't contradict it.
    20. Does everything obey Allah?
    Actually, people disobey God 24/7. All are obedient unto him means that he has everything under control. No one has ever believed that EVERYONE obeys god. Then there would be no need for Muhammad's mission, no?
    I think you've just misconstrued the verse a little. Everything is obedient to what he wants them to do, but if you look in context, God already knew Iblis(Satan) wouldn't prostrate.
    21. When did the people repent for worshiping the golden calf?
    "And when" on the second verse is not reffering to an event that comes afterward, but moreso only referring to an event which happened. In some other translations the "And when" is translated as "In the meantime".
    So... "when they feared the consequences thereof and saw that they had gone astray" was at the same time Moses came back. They aren't separate events. They feared the consequences and saw that they went astray at the time Moses came back. It wasn't at their own conscience. The following verse even states...
    "And when Moses returned unto his people, angry and grieved, he said: Evil is that (course) which ye took after I had left you. Would ye hasten on the judgment of your Lord ? And he cast down the tablets, and he seized his brother by the head, dragging him toward him. He said: Son of my mother! Lo! the folk did judge me weak and almost killed me. Oh, make not mine enemies to triumph over me and place me not among the evil-doers."
    Hence you can see Aaron (Moses brother) failed in trying to get them to repent in Moses' absence.
    They aren't separate events, they have never been believed to be separate events, nor is there any reason to believe so. The other verse compliments the verse, rather than contradicts it.
    22. Did Allah destroy the sight and hearing of nonbelievers?
    Two different similitudes, we're talking about extreme metaphors in Arabic here, not to be taken literally.
    23. Could Allah have a son?
    Again, "How can" does not mean "Can not".
    24. Can a man treat his wives fairly?
    If you're afraid you won't do them justice then marry only one wife, however you won't be able to achieve equilibrium no matter how much you try.
    That's what it's saying, they only compliment each other. Instead of contradicting.
    25. Did Pharaoh's wizards believe in Moses and Allah?
    Moses hasn't thrown down his staff yet and made their actions vain. So they don't really believe him yet. Yes it is reffering to the same incident, but as you can see all Moses had done thus far was declare his divine connection and not done anything to show that, so... they couldn't believe what he was saying by merely taking his word for it.
