Salam: Who to PM for technical questions regarding account management? Thank you.

Peace be unto you, I understand that the thread has been closed, and this is not an attempt to reopen the discussion. I respect the decision of the moderators, but I wanted to make a few words in closing. Firstly, thank you for all of your advice and all of your kind words. I truly...

My number one confusion is regarding eternal damnation. One person mentioned that because if you don't believe in God then there's no right or wrong and all your right actions are for other motives such as kindness and not for God. OK. Consider this. What about someone who is misguided and...

You don't make any sense. Plain and simple. I could see how someone chooses drugs, alcohol, or the night-life. But you don't choose to be depressed. That doesn't make any sense. And how do you get a lot out of life by being depressed. That's absolutely absurd--and I'm being polite in my choice...

I'm not a resident of the United States. But Muslims had this coming for them. When Obama was running in the primaries, many Muslim groups in the United States rallied behind his campaign, as well as many Blacks. Both groups were very foolish to have done so, and were more attracted to the fact...

OK. I'm going to grant you this. I'm not totally convinced though. I understand the logic you're employing, and I'm partially swayed. I think this is a point that could conceivably be negotiated/overcome. I think at this point, my biggest confusion is how God could possibly eternally damn...

You have just proved yourself to be a very immature individual. I had doubts about the sincerity of your apology--needless to say, those doubts have been cleared up. I'm not a clone of another person with whom you evidently have a vendetta. Either you're lying about this, or for some reason...

:ma: Sister, let me thank you from the bottom of my heart for your contributions to this thread. Despite disagreeing with you on an important point in this thread, your caring demeanour brought some comfort and solace to my heart. I understand completely the perspective you come from...

Thank you for apologizing. There are no hard feelings. And the posting which appears to have been made four minutes after yours was actually started before your post but because of it's length, it got posted, before I saw this post of yours. I'm assuming you're a brother. Listen brother, I'm...

Thank you for your kind words Sister Jennifer. There is certainly no need for you to apologize on behalf of this individual; each is responsible for his own actions. To be honest, one of my problems is managing grudges. I used to be such a forgiving individual; now when I am wronged or...

Thank you for the advice. I am aware of the possible scientific miracles in the Quran, including those relating to embryology, and possibly mountains, and the origin of the universe--Big Bang. I have a little book that I once read regarding these. This is one of the reasons that I have not...

Clearly you have taken offence to my posting, despite my having just asked questions. There are civil and respectful ways to communicate your disagreement. Resorting to immature and rude ad hominems is not the way of civil discussion. To respond to your posting: 1. I clearly said in my...

Thank you for your explanation. I don't understand what you mean by this? Do you mean that having injured another human being is a more important issue than facing legal consequences? I don't agree with this logic; it seems pacifistic, and I'm not a fan of pacifism to say the least. What is...

Thank you everyone who has posted advice. I am making the time to try to read through all of the resources you've posted.

I don't think it's because I'm new. When I posted in this thread, it was fine. Only for my other thread, and only of recent. My guess is because of the controversial nature, they want to make sure that I'm not going to post something offensive--so they put me on time-delay???? But my two...

I agree; God only punishes those who have received his message and reject it. Let's say I have received his message, and I am unable to believe it. I am good to others, but I am still unable to believe in Him. I wish he existed and I wish I could believe, but I can't. How is it reasonable for me...

I just got a message, after posting, that my post will not be made visible until approved by a moderator; anyone know why this has happened?

Dear Kayleigh, Thank you for your time and advice. I agree, you make a point, that I realize is true, but that evaded me when I was writing up my post. There's the belief in God, without a religion per se, and then there's the belief in God within a framework that we call religion. But...

Thank you Sister Jennifer for your kind words. With respect to the issue of confidentiality, I'm not from the United States, but I realize that there are similar strong laws maintaining confidentiality here in Canada as well. However, I have been reluctant to use the services provided...

I am a Muslim who has lost my faith. Not because I converted to another religion. And not because I decided to adopt a secular life-style to fit in. I've lost my faith, after much thinking and questioning, and finding in the end that I could not see the logic of religion at all. I am sad to...
