The offense of Christianity against transcendence was even greater. Islam charged Christianity with extending the nontranscendent concept to God’s “fatherhood of the Jewish kings” to Jesus and giving it, besides its moral signification of compliance with God’s commandments, the de-transcendentalizing ontological connotation of unity of substance between God and Jesus. Indeed, Christian catholicity defined itself with terms of this “substantial” identity of Jesus with God, as distinct from plurality of their “personalities,” characters and consciousness. Obviously, the source of this new departure from transcendence of the divine being within the Semitic stream was not the Jewish inheritance of Christianity. This had given Christianity the concepts, not their connotation. Neither was gnosticism the source of that departure, whose argument “If he suffer, he was not God; if he was God, he did not suffer” was hurled against their fellow Christians in defence of transcendence. The source must be the non-Semitic influence of the “mystery religions.” It was from this source that Christianity derived its “suffering God” who saves by dying and returning to life and whose mana (grace) is imparted to the communicant thought sacrament.
US soldiers have been encouraged to spread the message of their Christian faith among Afghanistan’s predominantly Muslim population, video footage obtained by Al Jazeera appears to show. Military chaplains stationed in the US air base at Bagram were also filmed with bibles printed in the country’s main Pashto and Dari languages. In one recorded sermon, Lieutenant-Colonel Gary Hensley, the chief of the US military chaplains in Afghanistan, is seen telling soldiers that as followers of Jesus Christ, they all have a responsibility “to be witnesses for him”.
They have been doing this in every nation they have occupied previously, so it came as no surprise to me. After all, the tactic has always been (and will always be) BIBLE + JESUS = FOOD. What is sickening is that these worshippers of a half-naked Roman criminal swinging from a cross are getting away with their Bible-thumping in a predominantly Muslim nation, with no outcry from other countries. I would think that da’wah movements such as WAMY or ABIM Outreach should step in to deal with the situation.
I am pleased to announce that I am releasing a file (in PDF document) that summarises the teachings of Christianity in a nutshell and analyzes it from an Islamic viewpoint. Essentially, the beliefs of the Christian religion can be listed down as follows:
The inheritance of sin
Jesus a.s. as the “Son of God”
The divinity of Jesus a.s.
The crucifixion of Jesus a.s.
The concept of the Trinity
Nauzubillahi min zaalik! Glory to Allah Alone from all that the half-naked man-worshippers associate with Him.
I have in the past come across criticism from those from that “God Eez Lurveee” belief system that their religion is “superior”, and often honour killings that happen due to culture (and nothing to do with Islam) exist in regions such as Jordan and Pakistan are pointed out as examples. Well, this particular news report should remove the smirk from their faces now. The level to which these pseudo-monotheists have stooped to truly shows how pathetic their religious belief system really is in the first place. My deepest condolences to the Egyptian Muslim sister and her family for their loss and I grieve for them.
AN Egyptian Coptic Christian shot at his sister and her family, killing her husband, after she converted to Islam and married a Muslim, a security official said today.
Rami Atef Khella, 28, broke into the Cairo apartment of his sister, Miriam Atef Khella, and sprayed her family of three with gunfire, killing Ahmed Saleh and injuring Miriam and her daughter, the official said.
The official said Khella had been searching for his sister for about two years, after she left her home province with her Muslim husband and came to Cairo.
Police are searching for Khella and an uncle who accompanied him to his sister’s home and fled the scene after the attack, the official said.
What was that again about this being a “religion of love”? May her husband receive Jannah for he certainly has died as a shahid for the Deen.
I have to admit that the summary is straight on the mark and summarises what those Bible-thumpers really believe. I am amazed that I didn’t come up with the term myself. The best I could muster was “half-naked man religion”.
Now we have a new label for it: Jewish zombie religion!
