You have a knack for getting things wrong man... you just LOVE to misunderstand dont you... i find myself always having to correct you about what i meant... anyways here goes again...
Quote:Why do you say that I am \"preaching\" Shia values? Have I at any point said that they are better than Sunni ones? I'm pointing out that they exist, and that those studying Islam should be aware of their existence.Where in the english language does preaching one thing mean saying that it is better than something else...
it can also mean putting forward values... etc...
anyways.. me saying that you were preaching was a reference to your post that started this whole hullabaloo...
get it
Quote:I'm sorry that you find 20% of your Muslim brethren disgusting, but the fact of the matter is that they took the same shahadat you did, and they read the same scripture you do. You may not like the beliefs they hold, but those beliefs are steeped in oral tradition and scripture in the same way sunni beliefs are.now where did you get this idea....
re-read my post...
what i referred to as disgusting was the FITNA...
F-I-T-N-A
NOT S-H-I-A
get with it... and again... dont jump to conclusions...
i am not disgusted by the shia they are misguided...
I am disgusted by what they say and do i.e. their beliefs.. but not them...
Now khairan... i suggest that you read my posts CAREFULLY before saying anything... ok...
