With Christmas only a few weeks away, for this month's series, we're going to be talking about what different religious groups believe about Jesus and who Jesus is. As I said on another post, this series will be focusing on Islam, Mormonism, and Jehovah's Witnesses, the three biggest heresies stemming from Christianity. I will be... Continue Reading →
Apologetics: Flippin’ Fatwa Friday – The Islamic Dilemma Explained.
[Author's Note: Before we begin, I would like to clarify two things. First, when I started writing this, one of my sources was a post from the website Answering Islam that was written by a guy called Sam Shamoun. I had never heard of Mr. Shamoun, and it was only after I had finished writing... Continue Reading →
Apologetics: Flippin’ Fatwa Friday – The Quran vs. the Bible: Surah Al-Baqarah Verses 87-96 (Even More Jew Hatred).
If you thought we were done talking about Muhammad's hatred of Jews last week, I apologize. Jew hatred is a recurring theme in the Quran and Muhammad basically tries to find every reason under the sun to hate the Jews. However, all it boils down to is the fact that the Jews rejected him and... Continue Reading →
Apologetics: Flippin’ Fatwa Friday – The Quran vs. The Bible: Surah Al-Baqarah Verses 83-86.
Picking up our roast of Surah 2, we need to talk about 2:83-86. When I got to this point in Al-Baqarah, I was somewhat shocked at just how blatantly anti-Jew it was. It provides a justification for why Muslims should hate the Jews that isn't valid at all when you have a Biblical worldview. However,... Continue Reading →
Apologetics: Flippin’ Fatwa Friday – The Quran vs. the Bible: Surah Al-Baqarah Verses 62-65, 72-82.
Previously on Flippin' Fatwa Friday, we talked about the Exodus story and how the Quran somehow managed to screw that up. Now, we're picking up where we left off, and it's time to talk about my favorite topic that completely destroys Islam: The Islamic Dilemma. Currently, I'm writing a research paper on this very topic... Continue Reading →
Apologetics: Flippin’ Fatwa Friday – The Quran vs. The Bible: The Exodus Part 2.
Well, now that I have finally worked up the will power to climb back into this series again, it's time to talk about the Quran's Rings of Power worthy destruction of the Exodus story. Yay.... If you guys didn't read Part 1, here's the run down. Pharoah was treating the Israelites badly, enslaving them and... Continue Reading →
Apologetics: Flippin’ Fatwa Friday – The Quran vs. The Bible: Surah Al-Baqarah Verses 40-46, 53.
Now that we've covered what's possibly the worst retelling of the Creation account that I've ever read and had a week-long break to process whatever that was, it's time to jump back into the Quran to compare it to the Bible. This time, however, we're once again dealing with the Islamic Dilemma, the million-dollar question... Continue Reading →
Apologetics/Mythology: Flippin’ Fatwa Friday – The Quran vs. The Bible: Surah Al-Baqarah Verses 30-39 and Surah Al-A’raf Verses 11-25
You may have noticed that I included the category "Mythology" to this one and be wondering why. Well, I added it because we're talking about the Quranic creation account. Though it's fairly similar to the Biblical creation story, it's different in some very important ways that shine a light on some key differences between what... Continue Reading →
Apologetics: Flippin’ Fatwa Friday – The Quran vs. The Bible: Surah Al-Baqarah Verses 1-7.
Surah Al-Baqarah was easily one of the worst, most tedious reads ever and is a prime example of how (supposedly) no man can produce anything like even a single surah of the Quran. It's because any self-respecting writer would see what they wrote, burn it, then turn themselves in to a mental hospital or hurl... Continue Reading →
