I don't outbid on Islam. Islam a brilliant religion by itself and doesn't need any preaching or missionary work or me.
I really don’t like misunderstanding of my intentions in this post .It is not an assault on Christianity or any other religion. It is indispensable for me to look for the truth and study comparative religion because if I would like to know whether a religion is true or false, I should not depend on my emotions, feelings, or traditions. Rather, I should depend on my reason and intellect. When God sent the prophets, He supported them with miracles and evidences, which proved that they were truly prophets, send by God and that the religion they came with was true.
We cay say there are so many sects, cults, religions, philosophies, and movements in the world, all of which claim to be the right way or the only true path to God. How can one determine which one is correct or if, in fact, all are correct? The method by which the answer can be found is to clear away the superficial differences in the teachings of the various claimants to the ultimate truth, and identify the central object of worship to which they call, directly or indirectly. Can we either claim that all men are Gods or that specific men were God or that nature is God or that God is a figment of man's imagination.
It may be argued that all religions teach good things so why should it matter which one we follow. I made some searching and I couldn’t find a <a href="http://www.ntsearch.com/search.php?q=sharp&v=56">sharp</a> answer but I found something interesting stated in the Koran:
Creation-worship is the greatest sin that man can commit because it contradicts the very purpose of his creation. Man was created to worship Allah alone, consequently, the worship of creation, which is the essence of idolatry, is the only unforgivable sin. One who dies in this state of idolatry has sealed his fate in the next life. This is not an opinion, but a revealed fact stated by Allah in his final revelation to man
"Verily Allah will not forgive the joining of partners with Him, but He may forgive (sins) less than that for whom so ever He wishes"(Soorah An- Nisaa 4:48 and 116)
Buddha was a reformer who introduced a number of humanistic principles to the religion of India. He did not claim to be God nor did he suggest to his followers that he be an object of worship. Yet, today most Buddhists who are to be found outside of India have taken him to be God and prostrate to idols made in their perception of his likeness.
God revealed a holy book to Jesus called the Injeel, some parts of which may be still available in the teachings of God to Jesus in the New Testament. But this does not mean that the <a href="http://www.ntsearch.com/search.php?q=Bible&v=56">Bible</a> we have today because it is not the original scriptures that were revealed by God. They underwent alterations, additions, and omissions. This was also said by the Committee charged with revising The Holy <a href="http://www.ntsearch.com/search.php?q=Bible&v=56">Bible</a> (Revised Standard Version). This Committee consisted of thirty-two scholars who served as members of the Committee. They secured the review and counsel of an Advisory Board of fifty representatives of the co-operating denominations. The Committee said in the Preface to The Holy <a href="http://www.ntsearch.com/search.php?q=Bible&v=56">Bible</a> (Revised Standard Version), p. iv, “Sometimes it is evident that the text has suffered in transmission, but none of the versions provides a satisfactory restoration. Here we can only follow the best judgment of competent scholars as to the most probable reconstruction of the original text.
The Committee also said in the Preface, p. vii, Notes are added which indicate significant variations, additions, or omissions in the ancient authorities (Mt 9.34; Mk 3.16; 7.4; Lk 24.32, 51, etc.).

Three terms i find interesting.salim2 said:Creation-worship is the greatest sin that man can commit because it contradicts the very purpose of his creation. Man was created to worship Allah alone, consequently, the worship of creation, which is the essence of idolatry, is the only unforgivable sin. One who dies in this state of idolatry has sealed his fate in the next life. This is not an opinion, but a revealed fact stated by Allah in his final revelation to man

1. Creator
2. Creation
3. Worship
I can roughly understand what is 'creator' and 'creation'. The third term 'worship' has a broad spectrum of meaning ranging from ritualistically following the prescribed procedures to ever anchored in the thought of creator.
Has Allah clearly told 'what is worship' in quran.?
Why it is unforgivable sin if someone joins partner with Allah.? Ofcourse Allah could be superior to his creations but why such wrath for an 'error' of joining partners with Him ? Why is it much more sinful than other crimes like rape & murder, crookedness & wickedness.?

If you are a muslim you believe it if you are a christian or even a non-muslim it is easy to see how misrepresented and out of context that is. If I truly want to learn about islam I go to islamic sources not christian. You will never understand christianity studying islamic doctrine, or you may but with an obvious islamic understanding of it not a christian understanding.
salim2 said:I’m not a religious
You state you're not religious - then go on to say how great the Qu'ran is.
You spew utter propagandist Islamic bullshit.
salim2 said:Islam is not just viewed as an acceptable religion, but as a desired way of living.
An acceptable religion?
A desired way of living??
Who are you kidding???
Of all the religions in the world - Islam is the most violent, intimidating and barbaric one going.
Cut out the propaganda crap Salim - we can see straight through you.
