Yes, I know. Ermm
Wasn't it God who invented this symmetry? Why can't He find a way around it? Or doesn't He want to? ]]> Fri, 25 Jan 2013 14:17:37 +0000 http://www.IslamiCity.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24233&PID=173332#173332 CHRISTIANS:ACCORDING TO BIBLE,WHO CREATES EVIL? : Originally posted by nospam001A... http://www.IslamiCity.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=24233&PID=173278#173278 Author: Caringheart

Is that the only reason? If so then surely there are other, less harmful ways He could arrange things to achieve the same result.

Ying%20Yang  Yin and yang
positive and negative forces

What would happen if a magnet had only a positive force?
Can that even happen?

I have observed the exact same behavior from Muslims.  Can you say anything constructive? 

God allows evil to exist, without which one could not recognize good.  Evil tries to appear good often times truth will emerge.
 
The root and source of all evil is ...... ignorance.  (Plato... something like that).
I cannot deny this statement. 
 
How is it that Jews and Christians are considered the worst filth imaginable according to Allah, yet Allah is forgiving and loving?  But Jesus was a prophet from God according to Muslims.  So therefore God created a filthy unclean person?  This does not make any sense to me.  I can only conclude that the Quran is not from God but written by men with political motives, with evil motives from evil influences.   Jesus was not evil and his words per the bible do not reflect evil.  But the Quran is full of questionable sayings of Muhammed.  Yet Muslims are taught that it is OK to kill "nonbelievers" (of what?)  and that anyone questioning the Quran can be killed, even if it is your brother!  Is that love???

Laughing out very loudly because Christians will always have another 'version' to back up their arguement. Christians will always be in denial.
