[Ali Imran]

You're right - promiscuity is in man's blood. A lamentable consequences of men's enthusiastic and impulsive sex drive is that it has caused constant mayhem for couples trying to foster a relationship and is the number one cause of relationship woes. Sometimes one wonders why nature would plant such enormous amounts of testosterone in men - which is 10 to 20 times more than in women - causing them to have a higher sex drive and become sex athletes. Does nature have the answer to this philandering problem of the masculine gender?

The answer is the feminine gender, of course. The problem is monogamy, which is unnatural.

[S I M T A N]

How is Prophet Jesus like Prophet Moses? They are like chalk and cheese.

Peace and blessings be upon them.

Jesus asserted that the Bible, upon which Christianity is based, was without error, indestructible, infallible, historically reliable, scientifically accurate and divinely authoritative. If Jesus was a prophet (one who interprets God's will and God's ways), as the Quran teaches, then we should all agree with His assertion.

However, Jesus proved that He was the trustworthy Son Of God by His miraculous fulfillment of hundreds of Old Testament prophecies, His sinless
life, His miracles, and His resurrection from the dead. Muhammad admitted his sinfulness and performed no miracles. To this day, his body is in his tomb. Jesus' grave is empty. The claim of resurrection is vital to Christianity.

Thank you for replying.

Can you please show me where Jesus made that assertion?

 Why are women monogamous, and why is monogamy unnatural?

[Ali Imran]

 Why are women monogamous, and why is monogamy unnatural?

Men and women are differently wired, as you already agreed when you said men have greater sex drive as compared to women. Even among men, some of us have a greater sex drive than others. 

Polygyny is natural, as seen in nature, and as such, monogamy is unnatural.

[Ali Imran]

I'm expecting Blasterlord to come at me for saying polygyny is natural.

Nope, I've never said that I held that opinion.

Hello.

We were talking about Deut 18:18-20 and the warning in those verses.

The warning is very critical. We all must listen to God's words spoken through that promised prophet in Deut 18 failing which will mean big trouble for us. That is how important it is to find this promised prophet who will be a mouthpiece for God's verbatim words

[Lukongsimi]

One is true the other is self made truth

[EvertonDiehard]

That is definitely a lie.

[EvertonDiehard]

Dun think can generalise to say that the Christians are highly educated or more educated than other groups. Totally not true.

Sweeping generalisations are always untrue. In the S'porean context, there are many wealthy, highly educated and westernised residents who are Christians. This may give the impression that the God of the Bible has blessed them with a comfortable life. 

[WhatDoYouThink!]

Brainwashed by their colonial masters who told them everything about themselves are of low ses. It's true for all the colonies

The saddest thing that I keep hearing on SG Talk are Sinkies who label themselves as descending from "coolie genes".

God blessed Christians to bless others lah!  It's more blessed to give than to receive lah! The more is given the more is required of you lah!

There are many wealthy and highly educated people who are not Christians. That is why I said it's not true that it's due to god's blessing.

Coolie genes but many had worked hard and becum rich, contributed to our nation building. You shd be proud of them instead of looking down on them

There you go again putting words in my mouth in an attempt to disparage me. Why do you keep using a Strawman Argument? Don't you have enough intellect and command of the English language to debate without using such tactics to hit below the belt? Surely you have more substance than that, or do you actually possess any?

Asking you not to look down on coolie genes is disparaging you?

[EvertonDiehard]

Let me educate you on what is a strawman argument. You attacked a distorted version of my argument instead of my actual position. Owing to your weak powers of reasoning, you took my argument and twisted it in a way that makes it easier to attack. You attacked this weakened version of my argument, making yourself look like you made a point. You actually ignored my earlier statement. The problem is that you have not addressed my actual point. You just put words in my mouth.  

[EvertonDiehard]

Your command of English is embarrassing! I said: "The saddest thing that I keep hearing on SG Talk are Sinkies who label themselves as descending from "coolie genes". I found such self-deprecating statements by my fellow S'poreans sad and tragic. Is that your interpretation of me looking down on my fellow citizens?

Let's make it easier for you to understand:

1. Do you look down on coolie genes?
2. Am I wrong to remind you or anyone not to do that?
3. Do you agree that's a bad thing to do?

[EvertonDiehard]

Arguing with a fool is unproductive since you are not interested in reasoned debate. Engaging with you is a waste of time and energy. A fool will resort to insults or other tactics that make the situation worse. Arguing with an unreasonable fool is also draining and frustrating.

Wealth can be a blessing as well as a curse.

If you have wealth and you are charitable, it is a blessing. If wealth makes you selfish, it is a curse.

Are you serious? None of them mention the Bible.

Knowing you, a Muslim and critic of the Holy Scripture, I expected you to give some sort of negative reply as you're wont to do in religious discourse. So none of the verses mention the Bible. You mean you have to see the word ‘Bible' in order to agree with Jesus' assertion? The Bible tells us that us that Jesus gave many convincing proofs. (Acts 1:3) Yet you chose to reject authentic revelation with an "almost willful blindless." Besides, your never-ending attempts to find contradictions in the Bible is proverbial.

For your info, I'm no theological scholar, and am not even in any positions of lay leadership or service in a church. I'm just your average self-taught theist. From henceforth, I'd probably just mention fulfilled prophecies, archaeological discoveries, and the Bible's amazing unity to build a compelling case for the divine origin and historical reliability of the Bible. If you wish to seek the reference sources or verses, suss them out yourself. You won't be spoon-fed.

For centuries, every engine of destruction that science, philosophy, wit or reasoning could bring to stamp the Bible out of the world has come to grief. Instead, the Bible has a mightier hold on the world today than ever before. If that were man's book that wasn't divinely inspired, it would have been annihilated and forgotten hundreds of years ago.

[S I M T A N]

Monogamy isn't unnatural, at least for women. It's still the ambition of most women to get married. This is because, for a woman, marriage is a declaration to the world that a man regards her as special and intends to have a monogamous relationship with her. When it comes to the notion
of being married to one person for the rest of their lives, I believe the generality of women like the idea. Fidelity should also be a high priority on women's list.

This is something men who are filled in their eyeballs in lust never understand. For them sexual fulfillment is the ultimate panacea for personal happiness. Life will be perfect if all your sexual drives, needs and wants are met. Don't let anything stand in the way of getting what you want, not the old-fashion values of marital fidelity, and especially not archaic biblical morality. Sexual conquest is the name of the  game. For muslims with a voracious sexual appetite, polygamy is a real godsend.
