I've heard of 'having a whip-round' but this is ridiculous, don't you think?

[keyplus90]

Were you ever among any of those "any one else" who was harmed as a fair game by a Muslim?

[naomi24]

According to Keyplus, Shias are not Muslims, just as according to Goodlife, Catholics are not Christians.

[sandyRoe]

Goodlife and the good doctor, Rev Paisley, are of one mind there. He holds that we are idolitors and worse.

[plautus]

I think that trying to connect JWs with Dr Paisley is a conjunction too far. Although well-known for his denouncement of Roman ritual, if push came to shove I think he would be more comfortable with Rome than the JWs. The one thing that the RC church, the C of E, the Orthodox Church and the mainstream Protestant denominations are agreed upon, is that JWs (and Mormons) cannot be considered to be Christians.

Surely shiaism is a subcult of islam as is sunniism and sufiism

Typical Mrs 24hrs. Naomi these are your words and not mine. Their few practices are against teachings of Islam and that is what I have said before. And even among Shia's all of them are not on the same line when it comes to these practices.

And it just so happens that keyplus after many years of searching for the truth found the one true faith (which fortunately was the same as his parents' faith so they get to go to paradise too). Additionally he is one ofthe most devout members of that faith so will definitely go to paradise even if nobody else does (apart from his parents). He must be very content knowing that he is better than almost everybody else on the planet.

[naomi24]

Keyplus, yes, they are my words, and since, in your own words, their practices are against the teachings of Islam, clearly you agree with me.

"Please do not criticise Muslims", aog? Well, leaving aside the fact that you do it enough for all of us, so our doing so would be somewhat superfluous, what evidence do you offer in support of the innuendo there, that people on this site do not, or would not, criticise Muslims ?

[andy-hughes]

AOG - I cannot see how you can make light of this devotional practice - 'having a whip round' - and then criticise another poster for doing the same with reference to the Prince Of Wales.

Either we are debating this in a serious manner, or not, but you can't start the ball rolling in your initial post, and then criticise someone else if they kick it down the road in response.

////Keyplus, yes, they are my words, and since, in your own words, their practices are against the teachings of Islam, clearly you agree with me.////

Naomi , No, I did not agree with you. That is clear lack of knowledge about Islam you have. Having few practices that are not allowed makes you go astray in any religion but does not push you out of the religion all together. Same goes to Islam, there are only handful things that can take you out of the religion. But you should not worry about that otherwise you would overload your tiny brain. ON THE OTHER HAND THIS QUESTION IS NOT ABOUT ME AND YOU ONLY AND I WILL NOT LET YOU HIJACK THE TOPIC AND THEN BLAME ME FOR THAT, AS YOU NORMALLY DO. I GAVE MY OPINION ABOUT THE THREAD POSTED BY SOMEONE AND THAT’S ALL. IF YOU HAVE CONTRA QUESTION FOR ME THEN POST A SEPARATE THREAD FOR ME.

[naomi24]

Keyplus, you have made it clear many times that you do not consider people who don't follow the code of Islam as you do to be true Muslims - Shia amongst them. And there's no need to shout. I am not blind!

[jomifl]

Hi Keyplus, Merry Christmas.

[keyplus90]

Same to you Jom. Thanks
