what do you think of when you hear the word Jihad?

just wanna know

Sith, Christianity was never ‘revealed’ by Allah. You claim you've studied all religions and yet you're getting in a pickle with your own. Go and talk to someone else. My practically inexhaustible patience with you is finally exhausted.

[naomi24]

JWale, I'm not entirely sure that's his intention. ;o)

[sith123]

for gods sake everyone. look. i do not believe humans evolved from monkeys and agree with your point birdie. you have to be uneducated to believe that. But my point was that there are people that believe.

You said the theory of getting taller was absurd. why? because there is no scientific evidence? i do not believe it but you cannot put something down completely because there is no evidence. People used to say the earth was flat. back than people would have thought that was rational. Than someone disproved it.

[sith123]

lol, jwale, who are you???

[naomi24]

Sith, //i do not believe humans evolved from monkeys //

You believed it a couple of days ago.

//Naomi, believe me, i know a lot of people who believe humans evolved from monkeys. Just because you do not doesnt mean its an irrational point. I know tons of people who believe we evolved from monkeys.//

JWale, Sith does actually believe all this stuff lol, I gave up arguing with him, he actually knows very little about the subject he is arguing about, I know that is quite obvious.

[sith123]

naomi. did i say specifically me? no. i said

//Naomi, believe me, i know a lot of people who believe humans evolved from monkeys. Just because you do not doesnt mean its an irrational point. I know tons of people who believe we evolved from monkeys.//

i said i know people who believe in monkeys. i did not state that i believed in monkeys. Than you say i try to twist things to suit my needs.

birdie, so you admit people are getting taller? Look, even i do not know about that 90 foot thing. However my point was that just because there is no scientific evidence yet or no proof than it is false. how is it? as i have said. people used to believe the earth was flat. That was rational to them at the time. than someone found out it was not.

lol birdie, opaque, unequivocal? If you dont know which one lol than forget it. adding big words isnt going to make you anymore clever ;) (just a joke)

//i said i know people who believe in monkeys. i did not state that i believed in monkeys.//

Fell free to count me amongst those who believe in monkeys . . . and furthermore, one who believes they are much more worthy of respect than those who extol 'holy jihad' as a justification for subjecting others to veiled threats.

I 'believe' in monkeys. I know they exist because I have seen them. I have heard a lot of monkeys too.

[naomi24]

Sith, //believe me, i know a lot of people who believe humans evolved from monkeys. Just because you do not doesnt mean its an irrational point. //

You appear to have changed your mind again. So if it isn't an irrational point, perhaps you can tell me where the rationality is in it because I can't see it.

[sith123]

naomi, the rationality is that you said that people do not believe we evolved from monkeys. I am just stating that there are people who do believe this. It is a belief. i do not believe it, you do not but there are many people who do.

lol, ok birdie :) its funny you didnt put the bit after it saying it was a joke but than again, youre bending it to suit your needs ;)

[jomifl]

Sith, believers don't think we evelved from monkeys, atheists don't think we evolved from monkeys, so who exactly does believe humans evolved from monkeys.

[naomi24]

Sith, //the rationality is that you said that people do not believe we evolved from monkeys.//

No, I didn’t. I said they’re wrong – and I also said you’ve been told that before.

//Just because you do not doesnt mean its an irrational point.//

If you think that these ‘tons of people’ you spoke about who believe that monkeys evolved into human beings have a rational point, which since you said their opinion isn't irrational, you clearly do, I can’t see it, and that’s what I’ve asked you to explain.
