infinite.......as-salaamwualaykum....i have been wondering about something.....reading several of your posts it appears to me that you converted to Islam.....what I wanted to know is what was the main reason that caused you to take this change? is there anything in particular you saw in Islam that you didn't see in other religions? i know Islam is a great faith but I don't get to look at it the way non-Muslims do because I was born a muslim....you probably understand what I'm trying to say.....personally I could never see myself , nor could I imagine someone else just simply give up on the faith they were grown up with and become the follower of another religion.....but i do know that Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world......and I jus wanted to know what causes people to take this change?....what is so great about Islam that made you convert?

see infinite thats the problem.. u kinda said in ur post that its better to killsumone in the name of god than kill sumone in cold blood.. to me it sounded like ur saying that if ur gonna killsomeone it aint as bad if its religeous, politial reasons.. its still murder and thats what i dont understand.. it seems to me people say its not as bad that a muslim kills a jew/christian/anyone and its not as bad as me killing a muslim for no religeous reasons ya feel? i feel religion leads to dead ends,, in that it dont make sense to me..
holla

The Big Bad Ass:
^^ Yo man, no one is saying if you wanna cap someone, do it for god. I think you should take what Infinite said to heart. Rather than try and cram religion down your throat, he said to just think about it, learn, and don't tear it down. You are going by what people around you are sayin. Do yourself a favor, and read the bible, holy qu'ran (sp), ect, and make your own opinions, judgements. Just cause one cat tells you religion means one thing doesn't mean that is 100% correct. I know alot of christians (my faith) who don't follow the path the way they should. It shouldn't be about telling someone they are gonna burn in hell if they don't tuck in their shirt at church (little extreme, but you get the picture), it should be about educating, and showing the positives or religion. Once again, I urge ya to read holy books from religions, search your soul, and then make your decision bro. And if you have any questions about christianity, I'll be here on the board, ICQ, or AIM if you wanna chat, just like I'm sure there are several others who would talk to you about Islam, Jewish, Sich(sp), or others. Peace man.

^i dunno man i aint really got much time to think i got rehab now and anger managment plus other personal and family issues to deal with and shit... i aint got time to read or think abotu nothen usually caus im drugged up and always tried.. they got me on them pills that slow ya down.. i had a break from shit today so i made a few posts.. but im real busy with shit.. and i just get people telling me religion is what i lack in life, and i want to find out why i need faith, caus i aint know shit about it other than what i pick up in here or in conversations around places.. and most of what i hear ar extremists, terrorists, all that shit and im thinken if religion can do that to ya then its the last thing i need right now. i need to find myself, and aparantly i need to find god.. but if i did have faith and did beleive in god i couldnt see myself committing to a religion as i could find millionz and millionz of flaws in them.. i can find flaws now and im uneducated as a 2 year old mules ass..

peace

automatik i think what infinite was trying to say (and infinite if any of this is wrong please correct me b-cuz i dont wanna seem like i'm talkin out of my ass) is that religion....in ur case i believe its christianity......exists because it leads in a path that u choose to follow, it just gives u some direction...but it is 4 u to choose "which way to turn when u hit a fork"....without religion a person would feel lost and wouldn't have much to turn to 4 help....it might not always seem like there is help, but at least there is hope....and hope is good.....it keeps u on a positive end and keeps makin u go forward in ur live to achieve whatever it is u want to achieve.....i might be gettin a lil off-topic on this one

ur religion is there to teach u what is considered right and what is wrong......and what u can do to "get into heaven"....if u personally believe in an afterlife

what i'm sayin is that religion is not there to tell u how to live ur life....it is there to teach u what is wrong and what is right and it is 4 u to decide if u agree and want to follow those guidelines....if u dont agree wit something that ur religion tells u......maybe u should search behind the "written" and get sum background information on it and then maybe that will change ur outlook on it.....for example i never knew why muslims and jews weren't allowed to eat pork....i thought we're allowed to eat cows, and pigs are animals just like em , but then i learned that people back then saw a trend that humans who ate pork had awkward diseases and many people were dying....today's science shows that pork can make u very sick if not prepared processed and prepared correctly....back then these methods didnt exist

so there's always a reason 4 something that is written in our holy books

what i'm tellin u is that keep faith because that is something that nobody can take away from u, and if u dont see the truth in ur faith, then look into other religions....maybe there's something out there that u might agree with.....infinite for example chose to convert to Islam
