1) If dogs aren't punished, then why are they seen as impure or an obstacle for angels to come in once house? (receiving blessings)

2) Nostradamus his predictions never have seems false and were predictions of future happenings, he didn't claim any right for himself or used them for any possible profit. Mohammed's predictions are used for such... But once I read/find some of them, perhaps I'll start believing in them... for now I haven't found many predictions of his that weren't already too obvious. Can you give me a site where they are put for others to read?

3) Sorry to burst your bubble, but many of these so called inventions came from other country's/cultures. It was the chinese who built the first clock ever... The circular system, etc... sorry but the Greeks were on to it. Mathematics... Indians? Etc...

4) Hum... wait a sec. what is the Hadith? Is it part of the Q'uran? If not, what is it then? The words of Mohammed? what is the difference between the Q'urna and Hadiths? And did ony the Hadithcs pass QC so not the Q'uran? You're confusing me here.

5) "The beginning of every chapter start with "by the name of Gode the most Merciful the most Beneficient - these words in arabic their letters count 19 ." As told to me from Plato and others..; not all of them start with that sentence... one of the latest did not... how come?

6) The friction between Islamic ways and the western ways does seem it wasn't made to help muslims peacfully existence between Westerners. Why does it not contain a code of conduct for Muslims to follow from century to century and from location to location? Conditions of life aren't the same around the world and during all ages...

7) "Mohammad deeds are inspired by GOD and the knowledge God gave Mohammad" according to muhammed and all who believed him. That you believe what is thought to you I do understand. but this statement doesn't really help. I wonder, did you believe all of this without questioning? Or where you too young when you learned about all this to question any of it?

thanks for your time.
