this person could be right; i dont know for certain. but his posts are still up, so if he was banned, they wouldve been deleted. theres been a few troublemakers on here who we knew were banned and all of their posts have been erased.
i agree with his premise that its bad and applaud his idea of purity. i disagree with forcing it on anyone and not giving people the ability to decide for themselves. my argument is on the thread there; ill happily discuss/debate it with you there if you can bring a different perspective to it.
I went to search his posts a week ago or whenever i made the original post. His profile does not exist. Click on his name, he's gone.
Seeing he posted a Muslim video and supported his stance with Quran i think its pretty obvious he was talking to Muslims. Sure, the entire world should forbid the bad and enjoin the good but does a non Muslim even know what evil is? Look at a Hindu bowing to statues, is this evil to him? While shirk is the greatest sin in Islam and the first commandment in Christianity, "no gods but Me"... Pretty much everything I've read from colgate i agree with.
What i find interesting is how Christians like thundo, atheists like manama and even what i assume is a Muslim like mecca actually agree with those debating against him. As I've said before the devil only has one enemy so its interesting to see who takes what side.
Far as those deciding for themselves.. If a man got caught stealing the punishment is to cut off his hand. The punishment is severe so it becomes a strong deterrent for others. How many are gonna agree with that today? Especially the thieves?
At some point for the betterment of society Gods law needs to be enforced as He knows best, but how many "non believers" are gonna agree with this? In an age where billions deny God altogether? Enjoining the good and forbidding the evil is shariah, while sharia literally means Gods law, such as the 10 commandments, as in thou shall not steal.
I believe you are a Christian so we both believe Jesus will return to rule. What kind of laws do you think he will enforce? I can guarantee churches will not allow homosexual unions for starters.
Far as moving this convo, this is a two year old thread with some 30 posts with maybe 2 or 3 actually being about memes. I don't see the point. Granted, most of this post belongs in the other thread but seeing half of the users here can't be bothered with "derailing", why should i? I've had several threads completely go off course even after repeatedly asking not to. Such as my signs and testosterone threads.
