again...not abt yada yada yada.... but abt a couple of websites i came across...
..it was during gp lesson in the com lab when i came across this website www.answering-islam.com. Dun ask me why i wasnt reading the articles we're supposed to read. Anw, I've been to this site before and if i recall correctly, the creator of the site was a christian and tt he was shooting down wat Muslims claim and everything he wrote seem to make Christianity the truer religion. But now, it seems as though the creator of the site's a muslim and he is arguing against Christians claims.
...well.... hopping from websites to websites....i discovered another website..... www.answering-islam.ORG is the one against Islam. Cant believe .com and .org makes a huge deal of difference. So i guess, there's two sites created to shoot each other's argument. Then there's also www.answering-christianity.com (Islam's answers to trinitarian beliefs). I wenta see if theres a .org version or not. I'm afraid there isnt. Maybe, just maybe, they cant give clear answers to curious members of the human race like me.[Note: I repeat tt this is just the theory created by a seventeen year old kid]
Looking at wat each sides has to offer.... i have to admit tt both sides put across their arguments rather chilidishly! They shoot and shoot like nobody's business and at the end of the day, one will still hv no clue as to which of these two monotheistic religions is the right one. The assertions they make seem to be overly biased towards the religion which they're trying to uphold..... unjustified claims.... too little citations....text reference... and so on... in other words, they cant really sway anyone to any side.
....."Haha.... must talk abit of religion on my blog also since after seing the entry titled "Tong Hua", Nizar expressed his worry -- he's afraid I'm becoming a buddhist... haha.... (lil connection b/w the song and buddhism though)... but ... he has his reasons to worry...He's lagi afraid i'll soon post christian songs on tis site lah! Haha... crazy..... to which i replied, the day u see me post christian songswill be the day u ppl shuld come down to my place and shoot me. Haha.. "....
Yea... back to the point, aint gonna talk abt religion too much here. Ppl of different racial and religious background come to my blog everyday,i think... heh......so the day i start talking abt religion will be the day tt only i will be the one reading wat i write. Haaha.... which makes blogging less fun to some extent.....
So anws, realised tt the spotlight nowadays hv been on Christianity vs Islam. So i wenta google up some stuffs and came across some interesting stuffs.
Generally, i see tt most "Christianity vs Islam" websites are generally created by muslims. ANd they tend to support the Muslim cause. One reason to expl this phenomena is tt i simply clicked a few out of thousands of searches. So my sample is too too small. Another reason could very well be that Christians aren't bothered to set up such sites becoz they have a huge legion of followers and tt they arent too concern abt challenging the claims made on such websites. Another possible theory could also very well be that Christians noe before hand that they can never win the battle of "Christianity vs Islam". But do keep in mind that these are mere theories of a seventeen-year-old who had just embarked on a journey to discover the Books.
Liek someone once said, "actually they're quite the same yet very different....if only people could see the similarities, then maybe the world will haf less wars ... oh well...... but that's just the way it is ..."
I really wish i noe everything in depth. u noe... a strong little girl once said, "i really wan more people to go to heaven on judgement day." So does everyone else who believes in heaven and hell i guess. And tis includes me. But its not possible if even i cant even answer Kim's qns convincingly. I really wish there's time for me to pursue this as well as academics. But like everyone else noes, there arent enuff time for us to do anything rite now besides to study for the As. But yea, everyone has 24hours to do stuffs everyday. I'm sure i can do both if i make use of my 24hrs very wisely.
Hmmm... am thinking and thinking.... shuld i or shuld i not. I think i better not. This battle between the two major religions of the world have been goin on for thousands of years. Me posting stuffs up here will definitely lead to more questions instead of answers. Haha... but here's some interesting sites i came across..
http://www.islam-online.net/surah/english/quran.shtml
~Theres a section on the above website which deals with numerous questions wif regards to both religions.Take time to discover this site. Navigate thru windows via the left hand margin under the heading "Discover Islam"
http://www.hizmetbooks.org/Islam_and_Christianity/1.htm
~Some interesting articles u might want to read
http://www.islam101.com/religions/christianity/
~the website which i seem to like most...
Anw, the authors of all the above sites write their stuffs in a manner which do not seem overly violent or childish like e initial 2 sites i mentioned in earlier paragraphs. The way their point and arguements develop is most of the time clear. Well.... though i may seem a lil biased here.... well, its hard not to believe the truth behind what is mentioned unless there are any experts among u tt can show tt i m on the wrong side of the battle.
WEll.... haha.... interesting stuffs to think abt, esp since it concerns everyone and their future. Kim noes wat i'm tokin abt. Haha.... well.... i learnt a couple of things today also which i dun seem to recall having learnt,
"And insult not those whom they (disbelievers) worship besides God, lest they insult God wrongfully without knowledge. Thus We have made fair-seeming to each people its own doings; then to their Lord is their return and He shall then inform them of all that they used to do" (Quran, 6:108).
Ahaha...back to serious academic work...am making lots of progress..=)
Btw, Hope i didnt offend anyone. Do tag any suggestions or thoughts regarding this post. The least one can do is to say, "I hate it if u tok abt religion on ur blog. One more time u tok abt religion, i'll boycot ur blog!" LOL!!
=)
Oh, and nizar.... dun worry.... i'll take good care of myself.... Whether i publish lyrics of songs by Guang Liang or Sly or Jay or SHE.... i'll always remember my roots. Or at least i noe i 'll always pray that He will protect me from being too influenced.
