Bismillah:
Quote:What kind of facts can you offer?
First of all, are you really open for such discussion or you are only here to bash our beliefs and show disrespect? <b>You once again called my God cruel</b> in which we have warned you before not to abuse our God, Islam and our prophet pbuh. So how will you ever verify and study the facts of God’s existence if you have no respect for us and our beliefs?
Quote:I wouldn’t think so. Do you think your god is really that angry and capricious as to condemn me for not believing what is not evident and not supported?
Can you prove that you exist? Yes, of course you can. You merely use your senses to determine that you can see, hear, feel, smell, taste and you have emotions as well. All of this is a part of your existence. But this is not how we perceive God in Islam. We can look to the things that He has created and the way that He cares for things and sustains us, to know that there is no doubt of His existence.
Think about this the next time that you are looking up at the moon or the stars on a clear night; could you drop a drinking glass on the sidewalk and expect that it would hit the ground and on impact it would not shatter, but it would divide up into little small drinking glasses, with iced tea in them? Of course not.
And then consider if a tornado came through a junkyard and tore through the old cars; would it leave behind a nice new Mercedes with the engine running and no parts left around? Naturally not.
Can a fast food restaurant operate itself without any people there? That's crazy for anyone to even think about.
After considering all of the above, <b>how could we look to the universe above us through a telescope or observe the molecules in a microscope and then think that all of this came about as a result of some kind of accident or came about by chance? </b> :conf06:
Quote:Atheism has no practices, customs, beliefs of “ideologies.” There is no real atheist asserted philosophy, all of atheism tends to be a critique of theist assertions. Atheism is simply the rejection of the Theistic model as undemonstrated, unsupported and bereft of substantiation.[/font] [/size]
Quote:"The modified, but still characteristically Darwinian theory, has itself become an orthodoxy preached by its adherents with religious fervor, and doubted, they feel, only by a few muddlers, imperfect in scientific faith. (Marjorie Grene, Encounter, November 1959, p.48.)
Quote:Evolutionists state the scientific data, which is borne out by evidence such as geological and biological mechanisms seen today, the fossil record, age-dating, stratification, tectonic plate theory, astronomy, physics, paleontology, paleonzoology, etc. etc. (by the way, all of these sciences crumble into nonsense if the Genesis account is true.)
the theory of evolution has been discredited in scientific circles. Since this theory first appeared, a large number of scientific findings have invalidated its claims one by one. The development of the electron microscope, new knowledge of genetic laws, the discovery of the structure of DNA, the revelation of the complexity of every living organism, and other modern advances have defeated Darwinism and will continue to oppose it.
When Darwin proposed this theory, he left room for the possibility that he could have made a mistake. In his book <b>The Origin of Species</b>, he often began his expositions with the words, <i>"If my theory be true." </i> In his investigations it can be seen that Darwin accepted certain scientific criteria and proposed some ways his theory could be examined. For example, he wrote about the fossil record:
Quote:If my theory be true, numberless intermediate varieties, linking most closely all of the species of the same group together must assuredly have existed... Consequently, evidence of their former existence could be found only amongst fossil remains. The Origin of Species: A Facsimile of the First Edition, p. 179.
The numberless intermediate varieties mentioned by Darwin have never been found, and today many evolutionist paleontologists have had to concede this. When taking into account Darwin's condition for <i>"if my theory be true,"</i> his theory must be rejected. If he were alive today, perhaps Darwin would have abandoned his theory for this very reason.
Indeed, the evolution dogma is a superstitious religion that holds masses of people under its sway, but it is definitely not science. If what evolutionists say in their writings is closely scrutinized, you will easily be able to read between the lines and perceive that they speak of a religion. here again what one of the greatest historian of science, <b>Marjorie Grene</b>, has to say on this subject is not surprising:
Quote:<b>It is as a religion of science</b> that Darwinism chiefly held, and holds, men's minds. The derivation of life, of man, of man's deepest hopes and highest achievements, from the external and indirect determination of small chance errors, appears as the very keystone of the naturalistic universe... Today the tables are fumed. The modified, but still characteristically Darwinian theory has itself become an orthodoxy preached by its adherents with religious fervor, and doubted, they feel, only by a few muddlers imperfect in scientific faith. <b>M. Grene, Encounter, Nov., 1959, pp. 48-50.</b>
The reason for this dogmatic approach can only be to avoid the truth they would find if they abandoned evolution, <b>the truth that Allah created the universe and all living things. This cannot be accepted by those who understand the world from a materialist and atheist point of view.</b>
