Mansoor: Nothing can escape dirt, least of all your ‘pure religion.'

Submitted by Plato (India), May 10, 2008 at 04:21

Mansoor you write:

>>The dirt which we have chosen to throw on each others face would never end but would make us extremely dirty and filthy.<<

Mansoor, I have no problem with the dirt you throw at me or India or my beliefs because that is something all humans, nations and religions have. And it is good that you point them out because that helps us to see our defects and take possible corrective action.

You have a problem because of your obsession with ritual purity and cleanliness.You think you have a pure (pak) nation and a perfect religion. You convert the dirt that exists in your nation and religion into something pure and wonderful. You cannot explain the abuse and curses that Allah heaps on unbelievers or why disbelief is such a big crime. You cannot explain convincingly why your prophet went about assassinating his critics, why he launched unprovoked raids on caravans and neighbouring tribes, why he married a six-year-old when he was 53 and so on.

This dirt I have thrown at you, you try to wash off by bluster and proclamations of the splendour and greatness of Islam.

>> Neither I am running short of ammunition nor you are ended with your missiles. The point is, both of us are standing and holding our poles strongly. The only difference is that you are trying to prove wrong thing as correct and I am fighting to defend the truth as truth.<<

Mansoor, you are defending a truth given to you be someone else, a self-proclaimed truth. Muhammad declared that he was a messenger and you just believe it. Will you believe it if anyone on this forum declares she/he is in contact with Gabriel and writes out beautiful verses which they claim prove it, as some (dhimmi for instance) have already done?

>>You spent hours and hours to find the material best fit to throw mud on the face of Islam and in special a Muslim country like Pakistan.<<

It does not take hours to find the dirt, just minutes. But to frame my replies to you does take some time, I admit.

>> Simultaneously I will also find even more horrible story to slap on your face, this war would run till our final breath and we both would think ourselves victor for the time being.<<

In typical Islamic style you consider this debate to be a war! Islam began with raids, battles and wars and you continue to think in those terms. The only victory I can claim is the exposure of the dirt that Muslims like you are trying to hide.

>>In conclusion, we both would never been able to win each other's heart.<<

You could win my heart if you can give me convincing answers to my queries.

>>But I am strong in my understanding that besides all the dirt, allegations, misrepresentation, false preaching, propaganda and disinformation floated/fired over here against Islam. My love to my Lord, the religion Islam, my Prophet, my heritage would never drop a decimal.<<

Such unconditional love is blind. You have internalized the false preaching, propaganda and disinformation that you have been subject to since you were born. That is the blindfold that has been placed over your thinking faculties. I am sincerely sorry for you.

Regards

Plato
