Sina's
Discussion with
the 'risen' Al-Imam al-Mahdi, The
Messiah
Dear Terence,
Thank you for responding. Faithfreedom.org does not preach anything.
We are a group of people dedicated to demonstrate that the world is
facing a great danger akin or perhaps worse than what happened six
decades ago that destroyed sixty million lives. This time the danger
comes from Islam. We have also demonstrated that Muhammad was a false
prophet and Allah, whom you claim to represent, is not the real God.
That is basically where we stand. There is not a particular
ideology that we subscribe to. In fact the contributors to
faithfreedom.org come from a variety of beliefs. Some are Christians (of
various denominations), some are Hindus,
some are Buddhists, Jews, agnostics and even atheists. We respect people and their
rights to believe in the religion of their
choice. This does not mean that I necessarily agree with all these
diverse beliefs, but I do not see it as my business to tell people what
to believe.
It is my conviction that no matter what faith we profess, we the
humanity, have one tiny planet to share with each other and not only
can, but must live in harmony and peace.
Regrettably not all the so called religions preach peace. Some of
them, and especially Islam, promote hate. And when they do that, innocent
lives are lost and senseless wars are waged. These are religions of
deception. They talk about peace to lure the foolhardy but then fill him
with hate and convert him into killer zombies.
These self righteous religions despise the rest of mankind and call them
"sinners". They
carry their hatred as the badge of their moral superiority. They are
indoctrinated to such extent that for the establishment of their
perceived "absolute truth" they consider ordinary lives to be dispensable.
No one is more dangerous than those who believe to be absolutely right.
You say "God's command of Peace...is within every religion but has
been 'mis-placed' by the 'Mullahs - Priests – etc”. I made my own
independent research and found out that this is a cliché and especially
in the case of Islam it is not
true. Anyone who reads the Quran can see that this book does not promote
peace but hate and war. So there is an obvious mistake in your
statement.
A thousand years ago someone could claim to be a messenger of God
and tell people this is what God says and you must believe me or
you’ll be roasted in hellfire. But in this day and age, people are
used to scientific investigation. They have become sophisticated. They
are not going to believe people who make such claims. You have to do
better than that if you really want to attract their attention. You have
to demonstrate your claim with facts and evidence. By claiming that
Muhammad was a messenger of God who preached peace and stating that
Allah is God, you already made your biggest mistake. I have proven that
Muhammad was not a true messenger of God but a charlatan and a liar. So,
unless you prove me wrong, what you say about him discredits you.
To give you the benefit of the doubt and prove
that I am not being unreasonable, I let you show that Muhammad was
indeed a messenger of God. You can go over my
claims against him and disprove me.
Now let me warn you that so far none of the Muslim scholars have
been able to do that and some of them do not
even dare to try it. However, since you claim to be a messenger of
God I suppose you can do what others can’t. Remember, I am not asking
you to do miracles. All I am asking is that you present arguments
stronger than mine. Since you claim to have direct communication with
God and I don’t, you must be able to disprove me easily. What kind of
god cannot defeat a simple mortal in the logical arena? Are you up to
it?
To whet your appetite let me remind you that 1.2 billion Muslims are
on the run. They have not been able to disprove any of those charges.
This is a shameful embarrassment for them. If you mange to prove me
wrong on those charges, this is the sure indication that you can do what
1.2 billion Muslims can’t and this is proof that you are indeed a prophet
or at least a prodigy. But if you fail to do that, it shows you are
just another pretender. What
do you say? Isn’t that fair? I am providing a platform for you to
shine and let the world know who you are. If you are not lying, then
you’d be jumping on this offer.
You
wrote: "It
is regrettable that what you teach appears to be the 'condemnation of
people that are 'proven' by you or 'history' to be bad or warmongers or
evil etc"
May
I ask why it is regrettable? Shouldn't we condemn evil and evildoers? Shouldn't we condemn Hitler, Stalin or Osama Bin Laden? Aren't
serial killers and mass murderer condemnable? Are you saying that these
monsters are not to be condemned but people who do not believe in you
and pay taxes are condemnable?
You wrote: “there
IS an invisible CREATOR that can and does speak through ME and, - - -
that this FACT is to be PROVEN by the CREATOR that does speak through
me.”
Let us assume that this invisible creator is speaking through you. But as you
say yourself this is yet to be proven. In that case isn’t it prudent
for us not to believe in you until you can prove your claim? You are not
the only one who has laid the claim to speak to God. There are
thousands. Some have been successful and have managed to build a huge
following and others have not been that lucky. So why should we believe
in you and not in other impostors when neither of you have the proof for
your claims? What sets you apart from other false prophets? Don’t you
think it is kind of silly for God to send a messenger without any proof
and demand obedience?
Next time God talks to you, tell him that you are quitting unless he gives you the necessary proof. This is not fair to you
and it is not fair to us. God is expecting us to believe in you without
any proof. How do we know that you are not an impostor, or just a
lunatic? How can we distinguish you from so many false prophets? It is
also unfair to you because while you do your best to reach out, intelligent people mock you because God has left you without proof.
Let me make an example. If someone knocks at your door and says he
is an agent of the government and has a court order to search your house, would you let
him in? You would
want to see his credentials first. How do you know he is not a burglar?
I am sure you won’t let anyone into your house unless he shows you his
credentials. You want some proof that this guy is who he claims to be. Could
anyone blame you if you do not let him in and shut the door on him? Of
course not! It is his fault for not having his badge and the order with
him. If he tells you, “my
badge is at home and I will show it to you later”, you’ll tell him,
“go and bring your badge because without that I am not going to let
you into my house”. You
can’t be blamed for not trusting this stranger and not letting him
into your house without any credentials. If you do you are a fool.
So my dear Terence, if you want us to believe in you; prove to us
that you are a prophet. Show your credentials first. If as you say, the
proof will come later, we will wait. Any God who has any sense into his
head knows what I am asking is fair and logical and will not punish us
for using our brain.
Now, imagine the guy at the door does not produce any credentials
but pulls out a gun and demands to come in. At this point you have no
choice. He has the gun and whoever has the gun is "right". So
you submit and obey. But what does that prove? Isn’t that proof that
this man is indeed a thief and not a cup? Ye shall
know them by their deeds. The very fact that he is unable to produce any
proof to his identity and resorts to violence is evidence that he is
a criminal.
Legitimate law enforcement officers do not act that way.
Now, compare that to what Muhammad did. He did not bring forth a
single proof to his claim of being a prophet, I am asking Muslims to
show me one solid proof that I can’t refute logically and they are
unable to do that. But he forced people to believe in him by raiding
them and killing those who did not agree with him. He furthermore,
looted them, enslaved them, raped their wives and did other despicable
things. Isn’t this proof enough that he was an impostor and a criminal
and not a prophet of God?
You also say things that sound strange. You say that government is
religion with dark and evil ideology
and “that every person voting or condoning or funding ANY
government system by paying taxes or licence fee etc is 'COMPLICIT' to
the DARK punitive control and actions of that 'ideological STATE and
thus all are to now receive and equal 'return' of pain.”
You know that everyone is forced to pay taxes. This is not
voluntary. In democratic countries, those taxes go to fund schools,
health care, old age pension, roads, safety of our food and houses,
water to our homes, defense and many other necessary things. In other
words, part of what I earn goes to finance the education of children of
my neighbor, the heart surgery of the guy across the street, and make
life better for all of us. My kids also go to school thanks to the taxes
that my neighbors pays and if something happens to me all my fellow
countrymen have made it possible that I receive good medical attention
and my kids continue to have their fathers for many more years. Is there
anything wrong in that?
But you say we will be all punished because we pay our taxes and
support out governments! What
kind of god is this god you are taking about? Are you sure you are not
talking to Satan? You know that Satan is very deceptive. He can fool
many people. He fooled Muhammad alright! How can we be sure that
he is not fooling you too? He is telling you that Muhammad was a prophet
when we know that he was not and we have proof of that. He is telling
you that Allah is God when that is very dubious indeed. Now he is
telling you the weirdest things, like those who pay taxes will go to
hell.
You said that Christ was a messenger of God. Didn’t he say pay to
Caesar what belongs to Caesar? Obviously the god of Jesus and this god
you are talking about are two different entities. They seem to contradict
each other completely. Which one is the real God? If your god is the
real one you said Christ was a true messenger. Since you contradict each
other, both of you can't be right. Therefore you must have lied about
Christ being a true messenger. A god that lies cannot be the true god.
Whether Christ was from the real God or not I can't say, but it is
obvious that your god is not the real one.
Do you see how easy it is to find the truth? All you have to do is
use your brain. You can’t just claim to have the truth. You must be
able to prove it. Do you have any proof about your claim?
You wrote: “If you FIGHT terrorism, you are using Dark
energy and IT will return to terrorise you at the hands of others equally ignorant. I tell all to NOT fight, but to BE merciful & compassionate and forgiving and to THEMSELVES walk in PEACE and do their best to educate
the 'offensive' ones as to the reason and need to conform to the Command
of the Creator.”
So if a bunch of terrorists take our children as hostage, make them
go thirsty for days until some of them are forced to drink their own
urine and then shoot and kill hundreds of them you say we should not
fight them, be merciful and compassionate with them and forgive them?
And that by fighting them we are using "Dark energy"? Which side your god is standing dear Terence? Is he on the side of the
terrorists? How can we not fight Evil?
You talk about peace. But making peace with Evil is evil. How can
you be a friend of evil and good at the same time? Sixty years ago we
fought against evil and that is why we are free today. Sometimes
fighting is necessary. Evil can triumph only when good people do
nothing. If I really believed in Satan, I’d be inclined to think it is
Satan that is talking to you and fooling you. Whatever you said so far
is very satanic and wrong.
However, my dear Terence, I do not believe in Satan. I think your
problem can be solves if you visit a psychiatrist. Muhammad’s claim
also had to do with his mental disorders. He too was not a messenger of
Satan but a very sick man.
No
dear Terence, the real maker of this universe (if there is any) will not
persecute people. He will not torture them or burn them in hellfire. If
God exists, he surely would want us to use our brain and not fall prey
to every charlatan and crazed man. This is the truth that will set us
free. Truth is not a whimsical declaration of some obscure character
claiming to be a messenger of Allah and saying the proof will come
later. Truth is backed by facts and
evidence. Truth can be demonstrated on its own. It is almost
mathematical. 2 + 2 =4 and this is the truth. Anyone can discover this
truth on his own and there is no need for someone coming from God
telling us what we all can know.
No,
I am not saying faithfreedom.org has the truth. No one can have the
monopoly on truth, just as no one can have the monopoly on sunlight.
Truth shines everywhere and on everybody just like the sun shines
everywhere and on everything. You don’t have to go anywhere or follow
anyone to find the truth. As Krishnamurthi said: “Truth is a
pathless land, and you cannot approach it by any path whatsoever, by any
religion, by any sect.”
Just as there is no path on Earth that can take you to Sun, there
is no path that can take you to Truth. Truth is found in love,
in our relationships and in our good deeds. Whatever binds us
together is truth and whatever divides us is falsehood. Truth is everywhere and it
belongs to everyone. You do not have to follow anyone to find the truth,
because it is within you. The compass to find the truth is the Golden
Rule not a self proclaimed prophet who can't produce any proof to back
up his claim. ABSOLUTE truth is unattainable for finite humans. It is a
dangerous thought not only because it is a fallacy but also because it
induces moral superiority, which results in hatred of those who do not
possess that fallacious "truth". The moment you think you
have found the truth, is the moment that you have lost it. No one can be
more mistaken than the one who thinks he has found the truth. And the
one who thinks he has found the absolute truth is the one who is
absolutely wrong.
At the end
I invite Muslims to submit to you at once and believe and obey you. If
they don’t they are hypocrites.
Why you
Muslims accept Muhammad and reject Terence? What proof you have that
Muhammad was a messenger of God that Terence has not give you?
But there
is a difference
between Terence and Muhammad. Terence has not killed anyone. He has not
looted people, has not raped women, is not sleeping with a 9 year old
girl and has not committed any of the heinous crimes that Muhammad committed. Why you follow Muhammad and not Terence?
Isn’t
that hypocrisy?
