Re: I know God
I too agree that intermittent fasting has great health benefits. The mental health benefits are clear from my experience of Islamic fasting, which is abstaining from food, drink, and sexual relations for a specified period of time, ie from before the light of dawn upto right after sunset. Depending ...

Re: My epitaph
For a while I felt like I belonged in the world. That helped a lot. Can the cause of this feeling be reproduced? I don't know. I went over the deep end when my dad died and lost my job a while back. The job helped also. Please accept my sincere condolences. A while ago, I came across an article on ...

Re: Islam is the Truth
Note to Averroes: check out Nietzsche's analysis of Paul. You'll dig it. Thanks for the reminder. U might not even find it becuz the catholics have infested the Internet with their own bullshit. https://www.theperspectivesofnietzsche.com/nietzsche/nchrist.html Thanks again for digging it up for us....

Re: Islam is the Truth
I left the deceptive religion of Trinitarian Christianity long ago. On that part, namely of the deceptive nature of Trinitarian Christianity, we are agreeing! Few Christians admit that Trinitarian Christianity is deceptive, you are of very few who admit that. I have hope that you too have the poten...

Re: Islam is the truth
That's taqiyya . That's stupidity. Aren't you ashamed of embarrassing yourself like that? Aren't you ashamed of belonging to a religion that makes deception a virtue? I left the deceptive religion of Trinitarian Christianity long ago. See how I answer your question, while you are incapable of answe...

Re: Islam is the truth
If there is, if Britannica is right, then you'd be compelled to lie, by the principle of taqiyya. I already told you there is no taquiya in Quran... That's taqiyya . That's stupidity. Aren't you ashamed of embarrassing yourself like that? First you lie about war casualties statistics, then you quot...

Re: Islam is the truth
I wish I had the same assurance about you. But because of taqiyya , There is no taqiyya in the Holy Quran... From Encyclopedia Britannica: First of all, Britannica itself admits that it does not understand the meaning of those verses: The meaning of these verses is not clear even in the context of ...

Re: To Those To Whom This Pertains
I don't know. I've had dieticians at mental health facilities encourage me to eat more diverse meals in terms of fruit, vegetables, and dairy. I could see how fasting does. Fruits and vegetables are very good. The fasting in question is intermittant fasting. For example there is the 12:12 and 16:8 ...

Re: To Those To Whom This Pertains
I'm mentally ill. I've had unspeakably horrible and traumatic psychoses and I've had severe chronic depression. Hi Gary. In case you might be interested, there are studies which shows that fasting can ease depression symptoms. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5505095/ According to our r...

Re: Islam is the truth
It’s good that you have decided to speak the truth now. I wish I had the same assurance about you. But because of taqiyya , There is no taqiyya in the Holy Quran, but clearly there is lying about one's faith in Christianity in the New Testament for sure. Peter Disowns Jesus 69 Now Peter was sitting...

Re: Islam is the truth
I'd love to think you mean that. And I'd love to think we could do it. But there are two factors from Islam that make it impossible for me to believe that. I find it amazing that all this time you had no trouble discussing with me but suddenly after my last post only, you are finding it impossible ...
