And these are the people that claim to have given the world the concept of zero and advanced math? Am I missing something here?

Following this to it’s logical conclusion these people will disclose eventually that Lucifer is really Yahweh.

Following this to it’s logical conclusion these people will disclose eventually that Lucifer is really Yahweh.

Or that Lucifer is a Muslim, which will cause riots throughout the world.

Yes, obviously you have no understanding of economics, which was invented by a famous palestinian, name unknown.

You start with zero GDP, bombmaking doesn't count.

You talk the infidels into giving you $2 billion.

The infidels give you $2 billion, what else can they do.

Your GDP is now $2 billion.

$2 billion isn't advanced enough for you?

Time for the isrealis to print a CARTOON..If I can find the link, I'll post it but it might take a while.

When Iran ran their Holocaust denial cartoon contest, someone set up a site for "similar" cartoons. They were much better.

The site is down, but a bunch of the cartoons are at http://www.flickr.com/photos/amitai/with/108073817/

I found it that quick because I use

[Nevermore]

There must’ve been some time-slip continuum where the Prophet went back in time and taught these people to be good M’s.

So now the Muzzies are a bunch of Scientologists?!
In the words of Vinnie Barbarino, "I'm so confused!"

JEWgle... LoL..

If you have time, you really should browse through some of the cartoons.

Years ago a friend of mine, Edith Black, who was then a graduate student in ancient Near Eastern languages at Berkeley, told me that Sumeerian and Babnylonian stories, the Epic of Gilgamesh, etc. were in fact source materials for the related accounts in the Torah, specifically in thr fst 11 chapters of Genesis, BUT this is not a matter of mere lytranscribing into a different language and cultural context, but a subversive retelling.

For instance, in other Middle astern literature, the Tower of Babel was a glorious achievement; the Hebrews re-tell the story as a satire, almost as a farce, showing the futility of Babylonian "greatness."

The Creation account in Genesis resembles that of othr Middle Eastern literature, except that all of the stages of creation are emphatically described as "good" and "very good," culminating in the creation of Adam -- a peak moment, when Adam is described as being the "image and likeness" of God, and his wife Eve being of identical nature ("bone of my bone and flesh of my flesh") and a "suitable helper," conveying a kind of "matching" quality or symmetry.

The upshot was, if you compare the texts and isolate the differences or contrasts, at every point it's the contrasts which convey the message the Torah is designed to convey.

If you want to know more about this, you might try contacting her through Catholics for the Common Good: as I remember, she's on the steering committee.

[Mrs. Don-o]

That's a major difference between Biblical accounts and Koranic acounts: the Biblical ones, for the most part, have at least some historic and archaeological corroboration, and the Koranic ones, not.

[Reily]

I am not claiming the Koranic account had any validity!
I don’t know how you can draw that conclusion.
I thought my statement was dripping with sarcasm about the lack of real historical understanding of Muzzies.
They literal believe that there is no history prior to Mad Moe!

There is an enormous amount of historical & literary evidence that the Koran is mish-mash of material from Gnostic, Judaic, Syrian-Christian & Arabic pre-Christian sources.

[Mrs. Don-o]

I knew you weren’t endorsing the Koran! I was just agreeing with you!

[Cronos]

Of course, that would mean that there were Muslim prophets before Mohammad

Ok, seriously, that is EXACTLY what Muslims say -- they say that Abraham, Jesus etc. were all Muslim prophets and Muslims and that Mohammed was the last. They also allege that Islam was the original religion and everyone else fell away from it. Hence, they call conversions to islam, revision, not conversion, arguing that you are reverting back to the original religion.

[Cronos]

Joseph certainly was NOT Muslim but he is related to their father Ishmael, first child of Abraham.

Muslims are not an ethnicity, Ishmael is supposedly the fore-runnner of the peninsular ARabs, not of Muslims from Indonesia, Pakistan, Syria, Egypt, Iraq, Iran etc.

According to the Koran, yes, all the Biblical figures were Muslims -- so Noah, Abraham, Jesus etc. were all Muslims according to the Holey K and they were prophets with Mo being the last prophet.

[Cronos]

He would have been though of as a Jew.

Yes, in the sense of being a Judean.

[Cronos]

And Jesus must have been a brown-skinned, black-haired Judean, like other Judeans of His time. However, His Divine nature transcends His earthly looks, so Europeans painted him as one of their own, Africans paint Jesus as a Negroid, while the ancient Church of Assyria which spread to China painted Christ with Oriental features. And why not? He came for all mankind, irrespective of our features

[Cronos]

Not really, the original Judeans at the time of Christ woudl have been similar to their Arab/Canaanite relatives: brown-skinned and black hair and eyes. However, there was a mass conversion to Judaism by the Khazar kingdom based in what is now the Ukriane and those people were Slavic-Turkic mix. That being said, Jews in Europe would have intermarried with Slavs, Germanics, etc. so just as how Jews in Yemen, Morocco, India etc look like the other natives, after having lived there for millenia, so too Jews from Europe end up having European blood.
