I have given two very good explinations in my previous post about eating pork and women covering. Does Christianity conform to these words of Allah? No, they have changed the religion for mankind. It clearly states these words in the Bible, but it is not followed by Christians. [/quote:fc7793b386]the deuteronomy part were addressed to the jews and was one of the laws God had given them because He chose them to be His chosen people.
These things, I believe, along with the animal sacrifices had been diminished or abolished because of Jesus' sacrifice.
and about the covering, whisper sent me this so if you have questions, ask him:
[i:fc7793b386]Women's Head Coverings
1 Corinthians 11:5, 13
"But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven."
"Judge in yourselves: is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?"
Problem:
Moslems teach that both men and women should cover their heads during prayer (and that women should cover all of their bodies at other times). They cite this passage in support of their assertion that this practice was taught by the early church.
Solution:
The passage does not require the women to cover their heads at other times than during prayer.
1 Corinthians 11:4,7 which are the previous verse and a verse in the middle of the passage cited by Moslems, say that men should keep their heads uncovered during prayer. If the second part of the commandment (that women should cover their heads) is from God, then Moslems should also accept the first part of the commandment and male Moslems should pray with heads bared.
Here is clear guidance that women should cover their heads during prayer. Moslems should acknowledge that this passage comes from God, which means that Paul is a prophet.[/i:fc7793b386]
Guess Whisper is still lurking around. Whisper, if you're reading this, post in here. You're much better in these things than I am.
anyway, our mission isn't to follow all those practices but to try living like Jesus did, and bring people closer to Him.
Those flaws you mentioned are minor ones. Christians don't practice it, yet it doesn't mean Christianity is false.
sidequestion: What happened to Judas'(or whoever that one is) body?
