"Well, sonny, Allah created evil to test the faithful. And he needed evil to test the faithful because there was no other way he could test the faithful. You see, the omnipotent being we worship can't tell what's in our hearts, so he needs overt actions to determine if you're faithful or not. We can ignore the fact that we wouldn't have evil thoughts and deeds if Allah hadn't allowed evil to exist. That is to speed up the conversation, not a slam on Allah, btw."Pappa wrote:Why would Allah let Satan mess things up?

Re: More Evidences for God
I wonder if Mandy has read the koran in arabic. From everything I've been reading, you haven't read the koran until you've read it in the original language. Seems a translation into another language isn't really considered the koran - it's okay to use to convert people with, but once they become muslims, they should start learning to read the koran in the original arabic, which is the only true koran.

Re: More Evidences for God
The usual given reason is that it's poetic, metaphorical language that is difficult to translate. I suppose that means it's even difficult to understand properly in Arabic too.Gawdzilla wrote:To maintain tighter control on the information or just that the thing sounds fuckin' silly in English?Ayaan wrote:I wonder if Mandy has read the koran in arabic.

The poet who wrote Beowulf was divinely inspired.
