Re: Do You Have the Entrance Fee for Paradise?
Problem # 1 In simple words: Qur'an is guidance for mankind and tell them how they should live their lives. Therefore, it contains laws for individuals and laws for societies or country, for that matter.
In simpler words - there are thousands of equally or better written books that contain guidance, that contain laws; some not just for countries but for the universe.
Problem # 2 Just because not all people are adhering to the teachings of the Qur'an does not make it wrong or not having the status of containing laws. This is a well known logical fallacy--Appeal to belief--Most people do not accept/believe that X is true; therefore X is false. so basically what you are asserting here is illogical.
OTOH the proof of the pudding is in the eating
Straw man--no one said any random person can make it. 2 words: Islamic state
even in the so called islamic state, quran is not the law of the land. Th eonly people that are clamoring for it to be so were the taleban to whom it became the undoing and in the present day, a few extremists in the extremities of Pakistan
We have logical and rational evidence to prove that Islam is the true way for humans to live; thus we are not asserting any superiority. We are only telling what is true just like any scientist who rejects an old theory or established scientific fact by providing evidences to prove his point. Just like he is not trying to be superior, similarly we are not.
to the contrary, it is clearly not the true way as is proven by the strife that the muslim world is in as to be contrasted with the non-islamic world. Illiteracy, extremism, violence, gender discrimination have afflicted the muslim countries. Contrast this with countries like India and the US where large muslim populations live in peace and harmony with the non-muslim majorities. This to me is proof that our theories are far superior
Addressed above--your argument is logically flawed! I can add another logical fallacy here: Appeal to Common Practise--X is common practise; therefore X is correct.
you've just repeated what you said in the beginning. so 'another' doesn't apply
In summary:
If this is what you call reasoning and logic, I can readily see why you guys are in such turmoil and trouble.
