I couldn’t care less. Stuff your Arab cultural imperialism were the sun don’t shine for all I care.
| Quote: | | Quote: | | Apart from that, your examples were classic cases of false analogies: neither Arnie nor Bill are revered as the messenger of the Lord and neither ever had sex with a child. |
Having sex with a child is not the only way to compromise one’s position of authority. These two political actors chose other ways as their preferred methods to compromise themselves. |
That’s yet another false analogy: having sex with a child it a horrendous crime and political authority (in the case of Arnie and Bill) is by far not the same as claiming to be God’s final messenger who’s every word should be obeyed and every action should be emulated.
But like you said yourself: the prophet has sex with a child (aged 9). Thus he was a paedophile and a child raper. Someone who (using your words) committed a horrendous crime. Thank you.
| Quote: | | Quote: | | Are you out of your mind? |
Well, you should revaluate all your assumption when you start thinking in a rather holistic manner about the whole issue. Consider the following:
1. All Sunni. Shii, and Sufi sources, amassing to thousands upon thousand of pages do not mention the words “parental neglect” when in reference to Aisha’s traditional form of marriage.
2. All Sunni. Shii, and Sufi sources, amassing to thousands upon thousand of pages do not mention the word “rape” when in reference to Aisha’s consummation of marriage.
3. All Sunni. Shii, and Sufi sources, amassing to thousands upon thousand of pages do not mention the word “paedophilia” when in reference to Aisha’s consummation of marriage by her husband prophet Muhammad.
4. All Sunni. Shii, and Sufi sources, amassing to thousands upon thousand of pages do not mention the word “immoral” when in reference to Muhammad Aisha’s marital status.
5. All Sunni. Shii, and Sufi sources, amassing to thousands upon thousand of pages do not mention the words “societal outrage” when in reference to Aisha’s consummation of marriage.
6. All Sunni. Shii, and Sufi sources, amassing to thousands upon thousand of pages do account for thousand of people from different tribal denominations, forms of believes and disagreements with parts of the reforms Islam brought about and yet not one single person from amongst those thousands is questioning the morality of Aisha’s consummation of marriage. |
So, actually this is merely an argumentum ad populum (and an Ad Verecundiam). Millions of people believed the earth was flat for tens of thousands of years...
| Quote: | | Then all of a sudden you and your like march in court and start shouting ‘paedophilia’. |
Well, that doesn’t render this fact that he screwed a child less horrendous does it? An no, I’m not the only person who sees this, actually many Muslims do to and start making up all sorts of weird excuses are attacking the messenger instead when confronted with these facts. The Hadiths clearly state (multiple times) that Aisha was 6 (lunar years) old when she was married with a forty old man proclaiming to be the messenger of God and that she was 9 when mr. Mahomet consummated her cherry.
| Quote: | | In my view, this is because you and your likes have been watching too much Perry Mason shows on TV and construct your accusations based on such shows. |
No, there based on the most revered of the Muslim sources outside of the Quran; the hadiths. You are aware of these hadiths? Should I copy paste them for you? I do not know who mr. Mason is and in my country we do not get his shows. I watch very little TV to begin with.
| Quote: | | You have come to believe that all cases are won in court. |
What? Have I ever said such a thing? Stop making stuff up. It’s hilarious but also getting pathetic.
| Quote: | Well let me personally be the first to open your mind to the truth with a reality check:
CASES WITHOUT EVIDENCE, SUCH AS YOURS, GET THROWN OUT OF COURT EVERY DAY ALL AROUND THE WORLD. |
Interestingly you have not presented any *evidence* to support your own ‘facts’, yet you have admitted Aisha was 9 (lunar-> shorter then solar) years old and presumably had her first period (by far not a sign of physical and mental maturity, actually a sign she was at most becoming a ‘pre-teen’). You have agreed to this fact, thus I do not *need* further evidence. The ‘prophet’ you believe in had sex with a little girl still playing with her dolls and still playing hide and seek with her little friends.
‘Your Prophet’ is a child molester *by* default . Period. |

Dear friends,
I think it is difficult if not impossible for anyone to stick to any wrong and harmful belief and be fully aware of it yet remain comfortable with it. So I would suggest none of us accuses the other of deliberate lie. The only reason we have any belief is because we are comfortable with it otherwise we always in doubt about it. For example, if one kills someone without any justification whatsoever and is aware of it, can that person live with himself comfortably? My answer is, no. However, if one kills one in self defence and one is fully aware of it that would help one not to be overwhelmed by guilt. Likewise if one kills one by accident and is not even aware that one has done this, one will have no reason to be uncomfortable about it.
We are all psychologically conditioned by our circumstances and environment and so what we believe or do reflects that. What we are doing here is testing ourselves against reality as we see it in order to adjust ourselves accordingly. We see the need for adjustment because that is what is required of us by the reality check. For example, if we all were muslims or kafirs for that matter, we would not see the need for adjustment because we will see when we reality check ourselves that we are all same as each other. However, things change when some of us are different from others. There arises conflict of interest. We end up with only three possibilities. a) We all become muslims, b) we all become kafirs and c) accept each other as we are and so compromise.
In order for all of us to turn muslims, the muslims must either have some convincing reason or an overwhelming force, have they? No.
In order for all of us to turn kafirs, kafirs must have patience to educate muslims, convincing reason and overwhelming force, have they? No. They have convincing reason but you cannot convince an unaware born ignorant person who has been indoctrinated as well by reason alone because you first need to unwind a person to free one from ignorance by birth and indoctrinational effect ie neutralise one. Only then you can convince one. Muslims are indoctrinated as children by their parents, relatives and society at large the while they are under their full control, so to unwind them we too must have similar control over them to put them through similar paces in the opposite direction, can we? No.
So the best we can do is express our opinions rationally as to how we ourselves see things and that may help them educate themselves in rationality and as they become more and more rational they would have no problem in convincing themselves as to what the real world is all about. If we murtads=muslim apostates stand back and think about it, that is how we murtads ourselves turned as such. No kafir put gun to our head and said you such and such muslims give up islam or else. It was all a kind of natural process of thought that took years. However, things were not the same the other way round ie conversion to religion was always a forced process.
The main point is that we all must learn to compromise and accept each other equal as well as give the process the necessary time to work itself out. As for us kafirs, let us spread knowledge and rationality and make clear to our muslim friends that they must stop pointing their guns at us. They must give up the idea that we are evil people and so they must force us to turn muslims or even remain muslims. If they do not then, of course, confrontation is inevitable, which is pointed out by many as clash of civilisations but I call it clash of civilisation and barbarity. I call muslim side barbarity because what else can one call this push by muslim missionaries to convert everybody to their religion for centuries. We are only trying to defend ourselves against this utter destruction of our human rights and ourselves or is that a wrong thing to do? Have we no right to life and liberty or to live in peace anywhere and everywhere in the world?
Although I am using islam as example, indoctrinational missionary organised religion in genral is my target. Things are getting really bad because of islam. If we look at history, Arabs were a free people. No body from out side came to conquer them like they started out to conquer others as soon as Muhammad began his mission in madina.
So the conflict of interest must be realised or there is no going to be any peace in the world as more and more people fall in the trap of paying muslims back what they have been getting of them for a very long time now. It is in the muslim interest to take advantage of nonmuslim goodwill towards them before it disappears because nonmuslim are slowly turning to muslim hatred thanks to muslim actions and that could spell the end of islam and muslims by way of all out confrontation anywhere and everywhere. Sympathy for muslim is going to disappear if they do not stop terrorising others and force them into reaction.
So it is time that muslims stopped fighting and started talking. Not only talk but talk sense.
The quran and the hadith teach muslims utmost hate against kafirs, what are they going to do about it? They cannot continue that way because we the nonmuslims would not let them and we would not let them because we are the ones who are bearing the brunt of it at the other end of the stick. So choice is simple, become civilised and learn to live with everyone else in peace or wait for the day of destruction because hate only begets hate. People are already fed up with muslim carrying on and are turning against islam and muslim here and there and this thing is going to spread to a very dangerous level out of control unless muslims stop preaching the quran, the kafir hate manual. If anyone wrote such hate book against muslims today, I don't think any descent publisher would publish it.
Not only the quran is book of destruction of kafirs but also it is a book that has nothing good in it for muslims either, for it teaches them to ignore life of this world for life in hereafter without any basis or proof. Hence muslims are a backward people because you either go for this life or the next and they chose the next life without realising that there is no next life as the quran dictates. It is all a false hope for which muslims are out to destroy others as well as themselves. No wonder then that muslim are only too eager to commit suicide, for they are sleep walking into this situation thanks to their institutional indoctrination that they hold so dear.

Actually, everyone knew that the earth was round: from measurements of shadows, megalithic sites are actually time keeping devises that are highly accurate to within a fraction of a second in 40 years, the perfect circle that the Greeks thought of, and the continual guesses at what was at the bottom of the world to keep the balance.
A place to get this info is: The Beginning of Western Science by David Lindberg, University of Chicago Press, 1993; and Uriel's Machine by Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas, Arrow Books, 1999. |

http://www.faithfreedom.org/Articles/sina/ayesha.htm writes:
| Quote: | Some Muslims claim that it was Abu Bakr who approached Muhammad asking him to marry his daughter. This is of course not true and here is the proof.
Sahih Bukhari 7.18
Narrated 'Ursa:
The Prophet asked Abu Bakr for 'Aisha's hand in marriage. Abu Bakr said "But I am your brother." The Prophet said, "You are my brother in Allah's religion and His Book, but she (Aisha) is lawful for me to marry."
Arabs were a primitive lot with little rules to abide. Yet they had some code of ethics that they honored scrupulously. For example, although they fought all the year round, they abstained from hostilities during certain holy months of the year. They also considered Mecca to be a holy city and did not make war against it. A adopted son’s wife was deemed to be a daughter in law and they would not marry her. Also it was costmary that close friends made a pact of brotherhood and considered each other as true brothers. The Prophet disregarded all of these rules anytime they stood between him and his interests or whims.
Abu Bakr and Muhammad had pledged to each other to be brothers. So according to their costumes Ayesha was supposed to be like a niece to the Holy Prophet. Yet that did not stop him to ask her hand even when she was only six years old.
But this moral relativist Prophet would use the same excuse to reject a woman he did not like.
Sahih Bukhari V.7, B62, N. 37
Narrated Ibn 'Abbas:
It was said to the Prophet, "Won't you marry the daughter of Hamza?" He said, "She is my foster niece (brother's daughter). "
Hamza and Abu Bakr both were the foster brothers of Muhammad. But Ayesha must have been too pretty for the Prophet to abide by the codes of ethics and custom.
In the following Hadith he confided to Ahesha that he had dreamed of her before soliciting her from her father.
Sahih Bukhari 9.140
Narrated 'Aisha:
Allah's Apostle said to me, "You were shown to me twice (in my dream) before I married you. I saw an angel carrying you in a silken piece of cloth, and I said to him, 'Uncover (her),' and behold, it was you. I said (to myself), 'If this is from Allah, then it must happen.' Then you were shown to me, the angel carrying you in a silken piece of cloth, and I said (to him), 'Uncover (her), and behold, it was you. I said (to myself), 'If this is from Allah, then it must happen.' "
Whether Muhammad had actually such dream or he just said it to please Ayesha is not the point. What matters here is that it indicates that Ayesaha was a baby being “carried” by an angel when the Prophet dreamed of her. |

Then all of a sudden you and your like march in court and start shouting ‘paedophilia’. |
It speaks volumes about their ethical values, doesn't it? Humans have not changed much in the last 1400 years. I sincerely doubt that it was in the best interests of six-year-old girls then to marry 51-year-old men.

You remind me a lot about all these Iraqi exiles in America who went to the US government, lead by Ahmed Chalabi, who believed that only becaue they used to live in Iraq then they know the whole picture. Knowing what we know now whoever believed that fallacy went badly advised. This is not my opinion - this a governmental stand on the issues: |
There are people that lie and people that tell the truth. We all know that. Just because one Iraqi lied, doesn't mean that you can dismiss what any iraqi or non-iraqi ever says.
Now you claim to believe in the hadith.
| Quote: | Volume 4, Book 52, Number 260: Sahih Bukhari
Narrated Ikrima:
Ali burnt some people and this news reached Ibn 'Abbas, who said, "Had I been in his place I would not have burnt them, as the Prophet said, 'Don't punish (anybody) with Allah's Punishment.' No doubt, I would have killed them, for the Prophet said, 'If somebody (a Muslim) discards his religion, kill him.' " |
Do you accept this hadith, and is it right to kill someone for discarding their muslim religion?
Best regards,
Rand |

Assalamu Alaikum Spinoza,
YES PLEASE!!!
Spinoza, please post all the ahadith, Quranic, siratic, tafsiric or whatever else Islamic references you can scavenge which have emerged from anywhere between 7 and 12 century Arabia that clearly demonstrate:
1. The parental neglect of Aisha in regards to find her a prospective husband.
2. The rape of Aisha by Prophet Muhammad.
3. The immorality of the marriage between Aisha and Prophet Muhammad.
4. The societal outrage in regards to their marriage.
After you support your accusations with so-called facts I will present my own facts, to demonstrate the opposite.
Wassalam |

On April 19, Hossein Derakhshan, a young Iranian living in Toronto, got an alarming e-mail from a friend of his in Tehran. The friend, Sina Montallebi, wrote that he had been summoned to appear before the religious police.
The next day, Mr. Montallebi became the first person in history to be jailed for the crime of keeping a Weblog.
"They did it to frighten people," says Mr. Derakhshan, who came to Canada two years ago.
The story of the Internet and the mullahs is a fascinating study in how technology can subvert even the most repressive of regimes. In the past couple of years, Iranian authorities have cracked down hard on the country's reformist press, closing newspapers and arresting journalists. But it will be harder for the mullahs to close down the Web. Sina Montallebi has become a powerful symbol of the liberal and technology-savvy generation that the mullahs have failed to suppress.
