I, for one, have seen more grace, kindness, compassion, politeness, care, and consideration from devout Buddhists than I have from devout Muslims. (Do Muslims really seem graceful when their religion is criticized?) If I go by your reasoning, I would have to conclude that the founder of Buddhism was a greater human being than the founder of Islam.

when someone asks you……….How did you learn to be so graceful in the face of adversity, kind, compassionate, polite, caring and considerate………..then you can tell them the answer where this is coming from and they will become respectful and curious.
Allah know best!

I assure you, I’m just crumbling under the torrent of psychological pressure you’ve unleashed above. I mean, I just might be so consumed by guilt, shame, and embarrassment, not to mention overwhelmed by the undeniable truth of Islam, that I’ll simply be forced to shut down this blog and convert to Islam immediately… Nah!

By the way, from the comment above, it’s obvious that you have a very high opinion of your intellectual powers. (You would not be the first or only Muslim to have so high an opinion of himself.) Well, in that case, perhaps you could answer the question that the good Shaykh refused to answer: how can it be shown that the Prophet Muhammad was the best human being who ever lived? I mean, Muslims make the claim and actually believe it, don’t they? It’s not intended to be some sort of bad joke, right? The claim isn’t meaningless or self-contained, is it? It implies that everyone who thinks otherwise is wrong. In that case, how can the claim be shown to be true? How can it be shown, for example, that your Prophet was a better human being, than, say, Socrates, the Buddha, Jesus, Gandhi, or Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.? To what standards and criteria could you possibly appeal to prove that your Prophet was the best human being who ever lived? If the answer is that the truth of the claim is obvious and doesn’t require proof, then can’t precisely the same answer be given by everyone else about anyone else? If the claim can’t be shown to be true, then isn’t it just another cheap and empty claim, like so many other cheap and empty claims made by dutiful Muslim believers eager to believe in absurdities without logic or evidence?

Come on, Muslim: here’s your chance to demonstrate your herculean intellectual abilities and substantiate one of the biggest claims of your faith. Perhaps if you can answer this question, I very well might convert. Can you do it? Don’t let me down, Muslim!

once again… cry boo hoo hoo… Muslim fundy frothing at the mouth and showing me the mirror… boo hoo hoo… woe is me… cry, baby… cry! lol … come on … go ahead with your pseudo-intellectual sounding sarcasm, read: boo hoo hoo… how do these guys always manage to get us

You’re an idiot and a half and deserve to be called so.

The sheikh gave a perfectly valid answer and your posting it only proves youre a bigger idiot than you realise. I only wish you were a little smarter so that you could realise the depth of your own stupidity.

You do not deserve any respect or sympathy. Shut this blog and take your sympathy whoring somewhere else.

Yah yah… go cry at how nasty Muslims have been to you.

You’re not looking for knowledge. You’re looking for excuses to confront Muslims… and when you come across someone smarter than yourself (which isn’t very hard) you open up a cry baby thread!

LOL
