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/Mythology: Flippin’ Fatwa Friday – The Quran vs. The Bible: Surah Al-Baqarah Verses 30-39 and Surah Al-A’raf Verses 11-25

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 8-20.
Continuing with our read-through of the Quran, we're back in Surah Al-Baqarah today, examining verses 8-20. These are the verses that really set up a whole series of random threats that will be repeated throughout the Quran. Honestly, so far in my reading of this book, if you took out all the random threats of... 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 →
