On Guard for Thee Posted January 13, 2016 Report Posted January 13, 2016 So a Christian TV evangelist? Dialamah took the time to write a paragraph back at 2627 for you. I suggest you go read it, or re read it if you haven't bothered. It may enlighten you.

It may enlighten you. That's who you sent me to as your example, you know. A TV evangelist. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Ankerberg dialamah won't win your argument for you. What other interpretations of the Quran are you referring to? Did you mean translations? What exactly? Nothing cracks a turtle like Leon Uris.

What exactly? You're asking the same silly question over and over and dismissing the answers. Go find an interpretation of the Koran that suits you and study it if you like. Arabic speaking scholars can't agree so you ca have your pick.
WestCoastRunner Posted January 13, 2016 Report Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) We have lost track of the OP. Islamophobia in Canada. Can we get back to that? We have seen many depressing segments of children starving and child soldiers being used for suicide bombs. Let's not forget that we need to help these people. Children are being fed water and spices, they are forced to view unimaginable atrocities. Before we get bogged down in the quaran, or whatever the hell is being translated, lets instead focus on the humanitarian efforts that are so desperately needed. This thread is meaningless in the big scheme of things. Edited January 13, 2016 by WestCoastRunner I love to see a young girl go out and grab the world by the lapels. Life's a bitch.

Argument from authority. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_from_authority You aren't giving me any answers. Just vague hopes that I'll stop asking you questions about what you actually know. Have you read the Quran? Nothing cracks a turtle like Leon Uris.

Both are sources of evil.
DogOnPorch Posted January 13, 2016 Report Posted January 13, 2016 No, and I couldn't care less about the Koran, or the bible for that matter. Both are sources of evil. Thank-you. So we have now determined that you really do not know or understand the contents of the Quran. The rest is another form of fallacy...I believe it is known as an Argument From Fallacy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argument_from_fallacy Nothing cracks a turtle like Leon Uris.

Reading comprehension seems not to be a forte. (that's French) We've already determined you do not understand the Quran. Now, you wish me to believe that you, yourself, are an authority on the Quran by suggesting it has 'many interpretations'. What are these many interpretations? Remember to not appeal to authority in your answer. I'm attempting to see what YOU know. Nothing cracks a turtle like Leon Uris.

On Guard for Thee Posted January 13, 2016 Report Posted January 13, 2016 I have read it. You have not. Ad which interpretation did you settle on i wonder?
DogOnPorch Posted January 13, 2016 Report Posted January 13, 2016 Ad which interpretation did you settle on i wonder? Which interpretation are you referring to? There are numerous (English) translations of the Quran which is why I asked you that before. If you don't know, please just say so. We've already determined what you know about the Quran which is not much other than it has a cover. Nothing cracks a turtle like Leon Uris.

We've already determined what you know about the Quran which is not much other than it has a cover. Did it take you this long to figure that out? Oh my. I couldn't care less about what the Koran says. I just know that there are many interpretations of it. I was just wondering which one you picked since you seem to be some sort of expert.

I just know that there are many interpretations of it. I was just wondering which one you picked since you seem to be some sort of expert. I am not an expert. There are no experts in science. So now we come to the conclusion part: since you have no knowledge of the Quran and no desire to expand your knowledge on it, what is the point in determining what particular English translation I used*? *Online Qurans have all the various English translations side-by-side.

I'm the one that had to point this out to you so I would hope I know already. So...since you insist upon not going down and staying down...what interpretations of the Quran are you referring to? A link will do to a list of the main interpretations of the Quran since we have already determined that you know nothing about the book.

I don't know why you keep on asking me this same redundant, stupid question. I don't read the Koran. My research just shows it has many interpretations. Go do your own research if you don't believe me.

Conclusion: You know nothing about the Quran and are incapable of backing-up your argument. Further back and forth between you and I on this subject is no longer needed.

Further back and forth between you and I on this subject is no longer needed. My argument is backed up by endless websites. I sent you one, you apparently have done no research. For whatever reason you seem to think there is one interpretation of the Koran and that's fine. You carry on with that ignorance. Can't waste any more time repeating myself when you just don't seem to get it.
DogOnPorch Posted January 13, 2016 Report Posted January 13, 2016 Agreement. We've already determined that you have no knowledge of the Quran. So anything you say about it has to be viewed through those glasses. Nothing cracks a turtle like Leon Uris.

What you have to say on the subject really doesn't matter anymore. We determined that a long time ago. I have no wish to expand my knowledge of it. For the umpteenth time. My point, which you see to have a hard time comprehending, is that those who do read it, have varying ideas as to what it says. I can't make it any simpler. Sorry.
