No, you derailed the thread because it was laced with propaganda. You added nothing of virtue to the thread. All you could have done was tell him to research what he was getting into or tell him good luck. You just sh-tted on the religion.

Let me ask you a question.

If a man is dying of starvation and you feed that man a prime T-Bone steak, but it is laced with arsenic have you truly helped that man?

Here's a better question.

If you have a 6 year old daughter would you send her to her same school class everyday when you know the teacher has been accused of being a pedophile child rapist, because in the end your daughter is going to recieve a quality education because the teacher is also known to be an excellent educator?

What propaganda did I push? I told bruh the truth.

What's the purpose of him trying to find peace with God if he is going down the wrong path from jump?

That analogy doesn't make sense. For one, the T-Bone with Arsenic is still harmful. BOTH will lead to death. Same with the pedo teacher thing. Anyway, you pushed propaganda that Islam is demonic trash. I'm not even Muslim, but you were out of pocket for that. Also, G-d is in Islam. All the faiths stem from the Abrahamic branch. Westernized Cacs have taught you that there was\ issues with the three religions. In Ethiopia, Christians got one part of a deer and the Muslims got the the other part (Anthony Bordain show). You were being divisive. Hell, Muslims and Jews used to live side by side in peace.

I don't disagree that Islam and Christianity stem from the Abrahamic tradition.

But as I stated, what is the point of not warning someone who is on their way to destruction?

Westernized cacs haven't taught me anything. My knowledge comes from experience, traveling the world, breaking bread with people of all faiths, and my own research.

Keep your unfounded assumptions to yourself. You know knothing about me.

Also the illustrations I used were to make a point that there is no purpose in trying to help someone when the end result is them being hurt in the process. You could have substituted the T-Bone Steak for kale or spinach. The premise still stands. You should have got the point either way.

How can you sit here and say Islam is not demonic when you have Muslims beheading Christians in Syria, Boko Haram in Nigeria, ISIS, etc.

Do you need me to post NSFW articles, videos, and pics?

Or maybe you truly believe Islam is a religion of peace?

All I said was you were being divisive. Also, it's not the religion, but people within the religion who can be demonic. Same with the other religions when they are perverted.

Too bad militant brehs don't apply this same logic to Biblical Christianity

Nikkas claiming science, maths, astronomy et al that were created by ancient Egyptians and Phoenicians...and later modernized by West African empires as some Muslim shyt now? The first advanced scholastic center (what can be called a University now) in the world was in Sankore. The same fukking Arab Muslims destroyed the place and all its libraries.

Islam isn't just appealing to the black man in 2017 - only an idiot would convert to that shyt when there are other things to worry about as a black man. Arabs don't even like black Muslims and who wants to be walking around sweaty women who wear hijab 24/7. Leave that shyt in the bushes...even jailbirds have stopped converting to Islam.
Those West African empires were Muslim tho. And Arabs did not destroy Sankore[IT STILL HERE]. What you mean is that the people who invaded Songhay were Berbers from Morocco NOT Arabs.

@Karbaash aren't you a horner African? Here is an example of what Islamic scholars from back in the day thought of your people:

This is the English translation of the of the Arabic text "The Categories of Nations" which was written
by Said Al-Andalusi in the 11th century on medieval India:

"The Indians, as known to all nations for many centuries, are the metal (essence) of wisdom, the source of fairness and objectivity. They are peoples of sublime pensiveness, universal apologues, and useful and rare inventions. In spite of the fact that their color is in the first stage of blackness, which puts them in the same category as the blacks, Allah, in His glory, did not give them the low characters, the poor manners, nor the inferior principles associated with this group and ranked them above a large number of white and brown peoples.

Some astrologers came up with an explanation for this condition; they said that both Saturn and Mercury control the destiny of the Indian people. Because of the influence of Saturn, their color turned black, while the influence of Mercury provided them with intellectual power and fine spirit. Saturn in partnership with Mercury gave them correctness of reasoning and depth of perception. This is why they enjoy the purity of talent and the power of distinction, making them totally different from the people of Sudan (Blacks) (2) such as the Zinj, the Abyssinians, the Ethiopians and others. "


:scust: :scust: :scust:
Not denying this but there was a time when Arabs thought of @Karbaash people as superior due to them{Abyssinians] conquering parts of Arabia.

Your dreams
A little bit of both tbh. Lately I've just been drifting further & further away from Christianity, it feels to strict & unsure of itself compared to Islam. Also I think my parents being hardcore annoying evangelists has effected my decision making in regards to this matter

You feel modern Christianity is stricter than Islam?

What I find most appealing about Islam is exactly that which you criticized. The fact that my Lord is so Awesome and amazing that the imagination of mere mortals cannot encompass Him is extremely awe inspiring and humbling. :yeshrug:

Meditating on His Divine Attributes brings me closer to Him. I might not conceptualize God in His Essence, but I can conceptualize His Mercy, His Divine handiwork in the creation etc..

The creation itself is a form of Quran, it's a manifestation of the word of God. Everything is a signpost to His excellence.

You can worship these images if you want, but I think Islamic spirituality is purer and more wholesome :yeshrug:

Anyways, I've spent enough time going back and forth with you. Pm me if you want to discuss these things. I like hearing different perspectives :ehh:

None of this is exclusive to Islam. This is a fairly standard conception of God across different cultures.

But if the God of the Qur'an and Bible is so awesome and his mercy is truly limitless, there would be no place for an eternal "hell" within his creation.

Remember that all ancient civilizations and cultures had physical representations of the divine. The Arabs just piggy backed off the Hebrew God, and the Hebrew God was once just another caananite deity. The Hebrews were henotheistic, not monotheistic, but yet Islam claims legitimacy through their religious figures.

Do what you feel is right. Me personally, I can’t follow any religion that doesn’t hold me (a black man) as being the ideal.
