Avenger and his fairy tales

Submitted by Infidel (Canada), Dec 17, 2006 at 19:01

Avenger, you clearly have a penchant for writing fairy tales and thus you are wasting your time and energy entertaining readers on Pipes' website instead of publishing stories of fiction and perhaps earning millions of dollars.

I would like to address some of the more entertaining references in your fairy tale.

You state that "the misguided Jews with their Talmud, where in spite of God's commandment as written in the Book of Moses NOT to oppress, they do so without a second thought". This reference implies that 5 million Jews are oppressing 300 million Muslims. What an interesting concept; Muslims have attacked the Jews in 1948, 1956, 1967 and 1973, but in your fictitious story it's the Jews that are the war mongers and oppressors.

The second point I will address is your statement that Jesus never heard the word "Jew". I think you're right, because "Jew" is not a Hebrew or Jewish word. However, Israel had 12 sons. The name of one of his sons was, using the English vernacular, Judah. And the linage of Jesus comes through the linage of David, who indeed was of the family of Judah. And no, he did not fast for a month but he fasted for 40 days and 40 nights. Mathew 4:2 And when He had fasted for forty days and forty nights, He was afterwards hungry. Jesus did not fast according to Muslim fasting, which includes gorging yourself between the setting and rising of the sun.

Another silly reference is that Moses referred to God as 'Ella' in Hebrew. Obviously you do not know that any references to God in the Old Testament omitted any vowels. Thus the most common reference to God was "YHVH". Another Muslim myth; Jesus never prophesied the coming of either another or final prophet. The "comforter" that Jesus referred to was in fact the coming of the "Holy Spirit". Read Acts 2:1 to 17, wherein the Holy Spirit filled all those assembled on the day of Pentecost.

One of your loony references is that Jesus outlawed alcohol. How then would you explain John 2:6 to 11, where in Jesus performs the first miracle by providing wine for a wedding? And if you kept the Passover in the fashion of Jesus, you would also require wine. You can also refer to Luke 7:34 where Christ was accused of being a winebibber. Your reference to a pedophile supporting Nazi and representative of Christ on earth is blasphemous and ironic considering that your holy prophet at age 44 years chose a 9 year old child for a wife.

My last point is that I'm well aware of Muslims taking credit for inventing everything from the origin of "0" to information regarding the solar system; but that Muslims discovered the western world 500 years before Columbus? What's next, Muslims orbited the first satellite, sent the first man into orbit around the earth and placed the first man on the moon? Are these lies the shape of things to come?
