The Moon God, "Allah" is from the compound Arabic word "al-ilah" or in english "the god". Allah was known before Muhammad's time without a doubt. His name has been found in pre-islamic writings and other archeological finds. At the Kabah in Mecca over 350 gods were worshipped, but it was built especially for the chief deity - the moon god Allah. Allah was the personal title of the moon god and Allah was married to the sun goddess. They produced three daughters, whose worship Muhammad would later make the mistake of condoning (see 'Satanic Verses' by Salmon Rushdie). The crescent moon symbol of Arabia came from this god.
So, Allah - far from being the revealed God of the Bible as Muhammad would have us believe - is nothing more than an amplified pagan idol that is a singular entity (not triune like the God of the Bible). Muhammad did not re-make the pagan god, he simply removed the lower deities from the rites of worship. That is why he never had to explain who Allah was. By definition, an idol converted in the 7th century into a new god cannot be the sama God revealed thousands of years earlier to Biblical prophets!
This new god, Allah demands complete obedience and submission to his theocracy. Any disagreement is considered sedition punishable by death! Allah is unknowable and leaves no room for grace for those who misstep in following his dictates. Allah demands death to his enemies; all those who do not submit and his religion is spread primarily by the sword.
Allah cannot partake in the human experience and makes no sacrifice for his followers. Yet Allah demands that his followers take a bloody sacrifice of either his enemies, or of their own lives in Jihad, attaining a "Playboy Mansion" heaven for their struggles.
Oh, one last little tidbit...Allah also demands the death of all Jews prior to his conquest of the entire earth (Christians next).
Oi veh!
LMAO! I guess Jenjis Conn doesn’t understand that Iranians speak Farsi, not arabic.
Kerry is a damned fool who thinks he’s smart.
From everything we hear about it, allah very much wills this “deal” to let his iranian islamoNazi murderers have nuclear bombs ( and the ICBMs to drop them on USA and Europe). Yes, allah will it , thoroughly!!!!!!!
But many naive people, like Oprah, believe that Christians and Muslims worship the same god.
Sounds like the Sunni-In-Chief has been tutoring young Kerry in the ways of his religion...
Judgement Day is going to be rough for him.
Your linguistics is sound, but your insistence of identifying the Mohammedan Allah with the moon god of the pagan Arabs is flawed. Al-ilah has the same significance in Arabic as ‘o theos in Greek, the definite article having the same force as the capitalization in English, of indicating the one existing deity of a monotheistic religion. Arabic speaking Christians refer to the All-Holy Trinity with the word Allah when speaking Arabic, but, denying the Mohammedan conceit that the Arabic word for God is the proper name of the one existing deity, switch to God in English, Dieu in French, and so forth.
It is only if one accepts the Mohammedan conceit that Inshallah means “If Allah wills it”. As an Orthodox Christian, I reject that conceit. The correct translation is “If God wills (it)”. The phrase is used by Arabic speaking Christians in exactly the same contexts in which English speakers would say “God willing”. I even knew an old Orthodox Christian woman whose name was Inshallah — her mother hand been thought barren and had taken to answering questions about when she would have children with “Inshallah”.
Can I get me a hunting license here?
