I have deeply studied and contemplated many different views about the nature of god. After so much research, work, contemplation, and so on, I have to say the Islamic conception of god makes absolutely the most sense. Some will seethe at this, but it has to be said.

>>17812257 (OP)
You are at beginner level. You have not studied anything deeply.

>>17812264
Why do you think that?

>>17812264
You say nonsense though, I have studied for years. I have contemplated always and come to this conclusion through hard work. How dare you say this bullshit.

>>17812257 (OP)
is there an Islamic discord raid going on or is it just one Saddam Aladeen Muhammad spamming threads while crying over his pedophilic false prophet?

>>17812264
If you just leave me hanging.. what kind of knowledge do you think you have? Why don't you elaborate to me so I know what you can teach me? This is unfriendly, and unkind.

>>17812269
The "Muhammad was a pedophile" is the cheapest cope against Islam, I'm 100% sure that if you were living in a time & culture where boning a 12 year old was seen as perfectly legal then you would be all over that. It's just what anti-Islam posters go to when they have nothing else

>>17812264
You have no company with truth because you ignore those that want to know from you. You are not wise.

>>17812306
Aisha was six. You are the one coping.

Dead internet theory. None of you are real I presume. In any case the OP asserts such claim in bad faith, and is therefore, a faggot.

You are so needy it's not surprising you fell for islam. I don't have time to explain to you that you've been brainwashed and that it was your own choice, or the million pieces of evidence against islam that you could find very easily if you had the tiniest intellectual curiosity and honesty, or that you don't actually have good answers for all the arguments you've already heard even though you convince yourself you have.
t. ex convert who studied far more than you and has no need to prove it

>>17812433
Ok man. Whatever, are you the guy who said I'm a beginner?

>>17812437
Yes. Apparently I touched a nerve.

>>17812478
You did. Your sentence shattered something in my ego, and I started more fervently to pursue the spiritual path. I thank you for this. To the point, I do not believe in religion, I am spiritual. I am still finding out more and more about Islam, as well as about other religions the deeper I go into meditation. I don't care what your faith is or was, I feel like liberality is much much better than strict dogma and ritual. If you thought I'm gonna lose my shit no, I don't mind.

>>17812367
The talmud says its perfectly normal to fuck 3 year olds yet ive never seen a single christian or atheist mention this, weird huh

>>17812490
>am still finding out more and more about Islam
Well, fuck around and find out, as they say. Maybe you could have actually bothered to read about the history of islam, its destruction of many cultures and civilizations, its unrelenting oppression of your fellow man, before claiming (without any argument) that it has the best view of God. The blatant sadism and manipulative ways of the Qur'an's author could also be a clue if you had eyes open.

>>17812503
The Jews say a lot of insane shit but they as far as I know didn't burn people alive for heresy.

>>17812527
Who told you I converted to Islam?

>>17812528
neither did muslims

>>17812540
That's not true, it is said that Ali burned heretics as well. But I think the Catholics were on a different level iirc they burned people just for translating the bible or the lord's prayer or whatever.

Polytheism makes infinitely more sense. Nothing about the world we can perceive accords with the idea that is the product of a singular creative will

>>17812535
You did not, I assumed it, but to claim it has the best view of God (again without providing any argument) is being close enough to conversion. The right circle of sufi friends and you'd probably convert.

>>17812559
>Nothing about the world we can perceive accords with the idea that is the product of a singular creative will
I see you're forgetting my feelings again

>>17812574
No you misunderstand. I was born into the religion, shia specifically. However due to influences like Rumi, and reading the coran actually for myself and discovering what it teaches about apostasy, (it's not a sin to leave Islam if you've been forced into it), I have seen that I am a spiritual person also, and thus I have now come to the path between faith, and spirituality, where I am basically someone who says no, I don't understand, or agree with everything, but I don't claim to know everything about life so I remain on the fence. I don't know the truth, but my life revolves right now about finding that truth. There's definitely much to be learned about Islam for me, and I will one day find that truth but I need much hard work.

>>17812588
>I was born into the religion
Deepest condolences.
>my life revolves right now about finding that truth
There is a possibility that you are able to understand by now that the "one supreme God" concept leads to intellectual intolerance, pride, and lack of curiosity and creativity, and that the extreme submissiveness engineered by it has produced disastrous effects on peoples' dignity and self-worth.

>>17812257 (OP)
You "deeply studied and contemplated" this, and after "much research, work, contemplation, and so on" you concluded "the Islamic conception of god makes absolutely the most sense".

>>17812610
No, I disagree. I came to this conclusion of the one supreme god by myself after deep study of texts and personal reflection dissociated from any dogma or pressure from the outside. I am extremely open, I love freedom above everything and this translates well into my personal life. So, if I am a lover of freedom, and I believe in the idea of one supreme god, doesn't that disprove your argument?

>>17812257 (OP)
Awesome! Have fun burning!

>>17812629
Let's say you're right and there's one supreme God. How do you know his will, and how do you know it for sure?

>>17812639
I wouldn't speak of god having a will, rather perhaps a set of laws that he wants us to follow. Because will is an aspect of the mind and god it can be argued doesn't have a mind at least not in the same way we humans do. And knowing this law for sure, to be honest I think whatever I do spiritually i always follow my gut. My gut tells me lying is wrong. Gut refined through spiritual practices such as prayer and asceticism can guide me.

>>17812645
And what if many peoples' guts clash morally? We need epistemological standards, logic, rational arguments.
