But I thought it was interesting how you put this in to look like it came right out of the bible.

Ecclesiasticus 25:19,24). Ecclesiastes has 12 chapters, so at first I thought it was a type-o.

Nothing is written about Islam in Bible. Isn't it interesting? Whenever a big event happens Christians find a verse to explain it? How about Islam? There is nothing about it. Quran corrects false information written in previous holy books, which are corrupted to suit human desires. First of all Quran corrects Eve's legacy. Women are humiliated in Bible

"No wickedness comes anywhere near the wickedness of a woman.....Sin began with a woman and thanks to her we all must die" (Ecclesiasticus 25:19,24).

"Do you not know that you are each an Eve? The sentence of God on this sex of yours lives in this age: the guilt must of necessity live too. You are the Devil's gateway: You are the unsealer of the forbidden tree: You are the first deserter of the divine law: You are she who persuaded him whom the devil was not valiant enough to attack. You destroyed so easily God's image, man. On account of your desert even the Son of God had to die." (St. Tertullian)Tertullian

. Then I saw the next parag, St. Tertullian)Tertullian. Remembered of him and looked him up in the Catholic Encyclopedia . He was a Ecclesiastical writer in the second and third centuries.

Ecclesiasticus 25:19,24). his writtings? Why quote him?. I was raised Catholic and never read all his writtens. Some heavy anti women stuff in there and for what reason was it quoted? Maybe you just wanted to relay his words to me..
Maybe you're the one who could get nasty and not mean it.
