So... care to enlighten us as to what Neil Armstrong "basically said"?

<div>



I was referring to other great scientists and thinkers who talked very well about Islam. as of Armstrong, all what we hear is assumption, which could be right or could be wron, we have heard that he became a Muslim after hearing the Muslim call to prayer on the moon, then again we heard that he denied becoming a Muslim, then we heard that he really become a Muslim <b>but was forced</b> to openly deny that he had become Muslim<b> under pressure and even threats from the United States government </b> Now in all cases, we are not really sure of what happened. To tell you honestly, I don’t care much about what Armstrong ‘basically said’, I don’t even care whether he embraced Islam or not, because thousands upon thousands of Non Muslims great thinkers, philosophers and scientists have declared the truth about Islam, although some of them didn’t embrace it, but at least they were honest to say the truth which you always deny. Read what they say:


<b>he was referring to the following hadiths: </b>


he also said:


and when he was asked about the source of the Qur'an he said:


i can still go on, but i dont think you are even going to read what was written.


Salam


Wael.

Ya’ know, I so appreciate one who engages in this type of comical quote mining. Are you really so desperately insecure in your belief system that you’re compelled to scour the internet to find validation of your beliefs by quote mining? How sad!



Another aspect of this practice is that these "quotes" are widely passed around and used repeatedly by apologists, while neither bothering to check the original source nor giving any indication that they are taken from secondary sources. This is shown by the fact (as can be seen in a number of these cases) that there are errors that can and have crept into these quotes or their citations which are then propagated by other apologists when they are copied without attribution.


That’s precisely why you have performed this Olympic quality backstroke when challenged to support your specious claim regarding Neil Armstrong.


As Anatole France has said, (and I'll throw in a quote of my own - one that's verifiable) "<i>Just because 50 million people believe a foolish thing, it doesn't mean it's not a foolish thing</i>".


Again, even if everyone in the world, atheists included, suddenly became Islamic followers, that doesn't mean islam is true. Truth requires external and authoritative verification, and what you've offered here instead is nothing new, nor is it particularly out of the ordinary.


It is wholly irrelevant, as you know, how many people join a religion or leave a religion. Even if every human being alive embraced Islamic tenets by dawn tomorrow, Islam does not move one step closer to being true than it is now (which is that it is like all theisms, false). Islam falters because it embraces faith, which is totally unnecessary to explain existence, because it requires the specious device of a book to "support" its veracity.
