Or at least I am hoping that I could stay away from polemical rebuttals throughout the month of the blessed Month of Ramadan. I’ve started a religious mini-site on Lailatul Qadar and a blog dealing with basic Islam issues. But me being me with the activist streak, it just seems impossible to do. These Islamophobes do not know when to call a truce, so there is no time for me to rest either.
As it is, I have been downloading and leeching a lot of e-books lately, especially pertaining to material on Atheism and its core “beliefs”. I never had any real interest to deal with Atheism before, but for the past few years I have noticed that Atheists are becoming at the forefront of a massive intellectual onslaught on Islam. The Christian missionaries are still around, but they have somewhat taken a backseat. Hence, due to this changing phenomenon, I’ve decided to adapt and deal with Atheism; or in particular, a certain brand known as “militant atheism”.
I certainly have a lot of catch-up to do this Ramadan.
Dedicated to a certain Radical, Anti-Justice And Neophyte Christian Zionist individual who recently died “mati katak” in a car accident not too long ago.
Sorry, no names. I do respect the dead, albeit to a certain degree. LOL.
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!
The position of Islam as the Religion of the Federation is constantly being threatened and apostasy is not being dealt with comprehensively by the authorities concerned. Some quarters are even appealing to the Agong that His Majesty should take steps to allow for “freedom of religion” (read: apostasy), which is an irony since as the Head of Islam, His Majesty certainly cannot allow for something which contradicts the teachings of the Deen!
A Roman Catholic Bishop in the Netherlands has proposed people of all faiths refer to God as Allah to foster understanding, stoking an already heated debate on religious tolerance in a country with one million Muslims.
Bishop Tiny Muskens, from the southern diocese of Breda, told Dutch television on Monday that God did not mind what he was named and that in Indonesia, where Muskens spent eight years, priests used the word “Allah” while celebrating Mass.
Actually the Alkitab Bahasa Indonesia (Bible in Indonesian) uses the phrase “Tuhan Allah”, but I digress. Anyway, the issue of the word “Allah” is not exactly something new. The Arab Christians have been using the word Allah from Day One, since that is the only word for “God” in Arabic.
