Please cite objective evidence for this claim without the use of the Bible. Holy books are the claim, not the proof.

You have no way of knowing what Jesus may or may not have said, and that assumes he actually existed, and the evidence for that is scant at best. If the US honours it’s own constitution then it cannot become a theocracy of any kind, given the 1st amendment directly prohibits this.

And what…your going to also claim trump is a christian?
See you still haven’t learned the lessons I dispensed to you, with respect to unsupported blind assertions being worthless.

Every generation since those words were written has seen a “great apostasy”. That is the thing about prophecies. They are vague on purpose; all sorts of events could “fulfill” them. Indeed, even apart from holy writ, every old person ever had thought the world has gone to hell in a handbasket since their youth. In our current situation, they’d even be right, lol.

Hi! I certainly hope not for the indegnous people living here.
Many peoples are converted to Islam all around the world. The only religion who guide you in a right direction. Only One God Allah is the creator.
Hi @maham92. Can you provide any testable, repeatable, verifiable evidence for your assertion?
It seems that there are many variations on how this religion is applied and practiced. What behavior, in your opinion, constitutes the right direction ?

Often by coercion and threats of violence, but the number of converts tells us nothing about the validity of the beliefs themselves of course.
Firstly this is an unevidenced subjective claim, and secondly we can see enough of what this religion so often does when what it is offering is not a choice, to know this claim is bullshit. Unless of course one thinks, misogyny, homophobia, human rights and child abuses are the “right direction”. Personally I find such behaviours morally repugnant.
I don’t believe in your deity, anymore than any of the others, and note again you seem to have the theists usual penchant for making sweeping unevidenced claims.
Can you demonstrate any objective evidence that any deity exists, or is even possible? If you can’t, then offer the most compelling reason you think you have, something, indeed anything, beyond bare unevidenced assertions.

So what? Many more are NOT converted. For every Muslim on this planet, there are 2 non-muslims. And that is after 1500 years of rather strenuous effort.
The same goes for Christianity. Roughly 2 non-Christians for every Christian. And that’s after 2,000 years of effort.
Also I’m being generous here. I’m assuming (probably wrongly) that you believe all Muslims possess the “correct” understanding of Islam. Even the liberal, non-fundamentalist ones. Even the ones not part of your branch or sect of Islam. If you are, say, Wahhabi and believe only very strict people of that persuasion please the Prophet, then … you have even less evidence for your assertion that Islam is true because it’s popular.
Keep in mind that it’s also “popular” to be bigoted, hateful, violent, wrathful, and dishonest. I don’t think you would justify any of those things because “many people” are in favor of it.
In the context of the “Argument from Contingency” by Thomas Aquinas: If everything we observe in the universe is contingent (could exist or not exist), then there must be at least one necessary being that is the source of all other existence. That is who we call Allah - the necessary being.
Morals only come from Allah, in this case as written in Quran. What do you think your morals come from?
Surprised at the comment from someone who believes we came from nothing. What objective evidence do you have for deity to not exist?
You think the Quran is a moral book?

Yes, the creator defines morals not us. Seems like you think otherwise.
Allah, the deity who inspired 19 Islamic fanatics to fly 2 planes into the world trade center murdering over 2,996 innocent people?
Sure…that was so very moral…whatever. Speaking of which, no one should worship your imaginary monster. Morals my ass. Your religion has no morals when it encourages murder and genocide.
Its an emotional statement.
Quran doesn’t approve that. Instead Quran says the opposite:
"…whoever kills a soul unless for a corruption [done] in the land - it is as if he had slain mankind entirely. And whoever saves one - it is as if he had saved mankind entirely… (5:32)
This is rich coming from someone who practices a murder machine religion. No one is buying into whatever you’re selling. Go preach at a mosque.
“Strike terror (into the hearts of) the enemies of God and your enemies.” " I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers, smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them. It is not ye who slew them; it was God." Surah 8:13-17 .
