Is this supposed to be the religions on this forum?
Or the rating around the world. Because I'm quite sure Islam is in the Top 5

A thought:
The 14th century Tibetan Nyingma master Longchenpa Rabjampa said: Since things neither exist nor don't exist, are neither real nor unreal, are utterly beyond adopting and rejecting - one might as well burst out laughing.
This post isn't a response to anything that has gone before, I like it and I wanted to share.

Nice quote, that would make a great signature line!

Almighty God has told us the future in the Holy Quran, explaining what will happen on the day of judgemant and heaven and hell.
Chapter 7 Verses 43/44 state:
"And We shall remove from their hearts any lurking sense of injury;- beneath them will be rivers flowing;- and they shall say: "Praise be to Allah (God), who hath guided us to this (felicity): never could we have found guidance, had it not been for the guidance of Allah (God). indeed it was the truth, that the apostles of our Lord brought unto us." And they shall hear the cry: "Behold! the garden before you! Ye have been made its inheritors, for your deeds (of righteousness)."
The Companions of the Garden will call out to the Companions of the Fire: "We have indeed found the promises of our Lord to us true: Have you also found Your Lord's promises true?" They shall say, "Yes"; but a crier shall proclaim between them: "The curse of Allah (God) is on the wrong-doers."
Chapter 7 Verses 50/51 state:
"The Companions of the Fire will call to the Companions of the Garden: "Pour down to us water or anything that Allah doth provide for your sustenance." They will say: "Both these things hath Allah (God) forbidden to those who rejected Him."
51. "Such as took their religion to be mere amusement and play, and were deceived by the life of the world." That day shall We forget them as they forgot the meeting of this day of theirs, and as they were wont to reject Our signs."

gelfen's post is his reults from an online quizz that I linked to in an earlier post. If you look back a couple of pages you should be able to find it.
@absin
A most interesting quote indeed, I think it sums up life rather nicely actually.

Chapter 40 Verses 17-21 from the Holy Quran state:
"That Day will every soul be requited for what it earned; no injustice will there be that Day, for Allah (God) is Swift in taking account.
Warn them of the Day that is (ever) drawing near, when the hearts will (come) right up to the throats to choke (them); No intimate friend nor intercessor will the wrong-doers have, who could be listened to.
Allah (God) knows of (the tricks) that deceive with the eyes, and all that the hearts (of men) conceal.
And Allah (God) will judge with (justice and) Truth: but those whom (men) invoke besides Him, will not (be in a position) to judge at all. Verily it is Allah (alone) Who hears and sees (all things).
Do they not travel through the earth and see what was the End of those before them? They were even superior to them in strength, and in the traces (they have left) in the land: but Allah (God) did call them to account for their sins, and none had they to defend them against Allah."

I will answer this one if you don't mind mate?
One thing that most people do not seem to understand that Islam and Terrorists have no link..Terrorism in the Holy Quran is completely rejected and forbidden which most people don't know...Terrorists do what they do because they are cold blooded killers and thats it....If you remember the IRA when they were bombing london no one ever said they were Christian Fundamentalists did they?..their were simply out to kill for Political gain and so do these so called Islamic fanatics...they are just out to do to make a political statement and nothing more...if they think they will enter heaven after killing 54 people then they are very mistaken.

I suppose a valid question would be what justification they find in Islam for their actions though. They appear to root their beliefs and actions in Islam. What is it that they are using to do that?
