as a big fan of islam

i have to say:

Quote:
there is no coercion in religion
- Qur'an, Al-Baqara, verse 256.

some say this only applies to the "people of the book" (ahl al-kitab) however there's another important verse (can't find the reference right now) which says "if I (meaning G!D) had wanted you all to be the same, I would have made you that way in the first place".

i'm not sure this is what "yess" is saying, though. deary me.

b'shalom/was-salaam

Here we go again?

Just when you thought you could find a thought provoking place to learn and exchange ideas you are forced to move on.Peace,love,and understanding is that what follows Islam every where it goes?

It's simply a shame that Ali and Omar are not posting at the moment - I'm sure we could get some interesting dialogue if they did.
