    No question, or specific point other that Christ is REAL, and you can never be sure you are right, outside of HIM.

    Watch this short video, and meditate on it's message.
    No audio needed as it's subtitled, and is only 4;44 mins long.

    Enjoy1 smile

      Christ is NOT real...as you have already demonstrated months ago.  This Imam is merely substituting one delusion for another. 
      Why should anyone desire to meditate on such egregious psychotic nonsense.

        What a life transforming change of delusions.

        Probably at the risk of death.
        Moslems don't take lightly their believers leaving their faith.

              Anybody can take a decision that may prove detrimental to once life, how does it show god? By your logic the terrorists who stakes their life are the biggest proof for Allah.

                  Your point was somebody who takes a life changing decision is the proof of god.
                  I pointed out that people who take life changing decision irrespective of your god, and even irrespective of reason and logic(there are people who committee suicide when Michel Jackson died, does it prove Jackson is god?) hence that is not a proof. Can't you understand even that much?

              I meant, I don't care if someone changing his religion because it is his right and his right only.

              God give us free will. Whether we want to be in this religion or that religion, or not in any religion, the choice is on us. Complaining about someone changing religion like arguing with God about why He gave human free will.

          I would say it was unlikely. What has the man to gain from making it up? Money, fame, a sense of superiority for fooling people with lies? He has a lot to lose for sharing this event; potential persecution, alienation from family.

          Why do you assume that any experience of God is a fabrication? If the scientific community dismissed out of hand any occurances that were alien to them, we would still be living in the middle ages.

                  Indonesia seems to be a relatively sane country.

                  "The government in Indonesia - the country with the world's largest Muslim population - generally respected religious freedom, according to the report, but in some instances failed to protect persons from religious discrimination and abuse.

                  It cited reporting from a nongovernmental organization that there were more than 50 attacks against members of the Muslim Ahmadiyah sect during 2010 and more than 75 attacks against Christians."

                    Well, like I told you. this is the human's mind problem. Stupidity and ignorant is everywhere.

                    While people said they are religious, they following blindly, not to the teaching of religion, but to the leaders which are human being. They didn't care to learning by themselves about their own religion and believing only what their teachers told them. This is indeed, the biggest problem in my community. 'THINK!', Allah told them. But no, they refused to do that.

                    As the result, when they see something not right in their opinion, fear claimed their hearts and since they didn't want to think, it control them. together, fears turned into rage and resulted these awful incidents.

                    Aren't this kind of problems happened a lot there too? Killing Afghan, killing Iraqi, long ago, killing Indian.

                  Human mind, indeed.

                  Qur'an (4:89) - "They but wish that ye should reject Faith, as they do, and thus be on the same footing (as they): But take not friends from their ranks until they flee in the way of Allah (From what is forbidden). But if they turn renegades, seize them and slay them wherever ye find them"

                  Qur'an (9:11-12) - "But if they repent and establish worship and pay the poor-due, then are they your brethren in religion. We detail Our revelations for a people who have knowledge. And if they break their pledges after their treaty (hath been made with you) and assail your religion, then fight the heads of disbelief - Lo! they have no binding oaths - in order that they may desist."

          Were you there when he was re-tested, as he said he was?

          No-one is forcing you to believe. It's a video that talks about one man's experience, miracle and conversion as a result.

          FYI.
          Wikipedia "A Muslim, also spelled Moslem,[1] is an adherent of Islam, .  .  .  "

          Also, "When Baby Boomers were children it was Moslem. The American Heritage Dictionary (1992) noted,"Moslem is the form predominantly preferred in journalism and popular usage. Muslim is preferred by scholars and by English-speaking adherents of Islam." No more. Now, almost everybody uses Muslim." http://hnn.us/articles/524.html.

          It does clarify some differences that Muslims make, but given the setting here, it does not apply.
          It could have been used either way in this case, meaning the same thing.

          However, considering the context of the thread, perhaps Moslem would indeed be a better application.

              That's an oxymoron Mark of course we need to make our decision before it is too late! errrr.... to late is too late!

              I just stated that, outside of scriptural evidence I SUSPECTED that there may be a period of non locality when we are able to review our lives.

              Of course this is just a suspicion, not even a belief, maybe more a hope that there may be some chance...

              But equally it could be the point when those who do NOT qualify for spending eternity with God FINALLY accept, and even agree, that they decided wrongly and are guilty as charged.

              As for burning in hell, I also covered that recently, and intend to cover it in a hub when I have time, but you know that the burning in hell scenario is a stick you use, not me.

Blaming, hating, discriminating and killing already happened too often since the beginning of religions. This kind of forum only put more salt into the wound. Isn't we have enough already?

          aka-dj: The credit goes to the international media who create sensation out of such stories. The fact is that Christians live as freely in Pakistan as Muslims live in the west, infect here we don't have the homeland security dept. to spy over and harass Christians or to arrest them such that they don't have the right to bail etc.

        When we were kids, hurting someone's feelings by making a mock of the person or his loved one's, was considered 'bullying'. I don't know why when we grew up it became 'freedom of expression'. And I am talking about hurting someone's feelings not forcing someone to follow your religion. I feel respecting people and their religious figures is not that bad idea if we like to promote harmony and peace in this World. Having said that-- I respect your right to disagree with me.

          my point is simple...if x draws muhammad's photo , it is his/her right to express...if y or z feels hurt it is y or z's right to appeal to court...matter ends...

          violence on street , threatening artist etc  should be dealt strictly by law....people should not be allowed to bring out their cave ways in name of religion....we dont live in 7th century or 1st century or 1000 bc...we live in era where we have courts in place world over...

                So, what am I doing here, am I not protesting through arguments and dialog? I feel that provoking violence should not come under fundamental rights and people should realize that something that is not necessary and on the contrary is damaging love, peace and harmony should not be called fundamental rights. But off-course these are my views which I like to put across through dialog. You may agree or disagree.

                If our intentions are to create peace, we should try to understand each other and avoid "unnecessary" actions that could damage harmony.

      aka-dj--  I know you post such news items considering it as a social service to stop injustice in Pakistan. I just like to inform you that the video has twisted the blasphemy law saying that whoever defies Prophet Muhammad commits a crime--  when it is that who ever insults Muhammad, Jesus, Jacob or any other prophet he should be punished.

      But very few people know that this law is there for more than two decades in Pakistan. It was added into the constitution by the late President Zia-ul-Haq but nobody, I repeat nobody has been put to death for this law up till now. It was probably made to work as a deterrent so that no group uses abusive language against each other in a multi-religious country like Pakistan.

      Even the case against this woman in this video may be totally fabricated but in Pakistan such things are very common. Since it was against a Christian, it got international attention.
