But they do not confirm the existence of Allah. THAT is the direction of confirmation bias that I meant.
If you have scientific facts given 1400+ years which have only been recently discovered, it's clear to me it was not written by man and therefore it can only have come from God. We are all free to ACCEPT or REJECT as free will has been given to us by God.
1. Say : O ye that reject Faith!
2. I worship not that which ye worship,
3. Nor will ye worship that which I worship.
4. And I will not worship that which ye have been wont to worship,
5. Nor will ye worship that which I worship.
6. Unto you your religion, and unto me my religion.
Qur'an 109:1-6
We don't outlaw acts done in private between consenting adults. Many of the Middle Eastern nations outlaw just being a homosexual, whether practicing or not.
Islam does not allow punishment by the community towards those who commit indecencies (actual pen******on has to occur for maximum punishment) unless they are done in front of 4 witnesses (who must be of good character). In the west, you would probably need less witnesses to be punished.
When homosexuality is outlawed anywhere, it is assumed that the act is being committed in public. That is no different in Muslim countries. After all, what would the point be in placing a caveat of witnesses. That makes no sense. Your bias against Islam and Muslims clouds your views.
its treatment of outsiders.
You mean like this?
1 Samuel said to Saul, “The Lord sent me to anoint you king over his people Israel; now therefore listen to the words of the Lord.
2 Thus says the Lord of hosts: I will punish the Amalekites for what they did in opposing the Israelites when they came up out of Egypt.
3 Now go and attack Amalek and utterly destroy all that they have; do not spare them, but kill both man and woman, child and infant, ox and sheep, camel and donkey.”
1 Samuel 15:1-3
God provides for both disbelievers and believers.
The prophets who precede the time of Muhammad didn't follow Islam.
ALL of God's Prophets SUBMITTED to God and hence WERE MUSLIMS as much as you dislike it.
Those who preceded the existence of the Qur'an cannot possibly have followed it.
19. Indeed, the religion in the sight of Allaah is Islam. And those who were given the Scripture did not differ except after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. And whoever disbelieves in the verses of Allaah, then indeed, Allaah is swift in [taking] account.
84. Say, "We have believed in Allaah and in what was revealed to us and what was revealed to Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, and the Descendants, and in what was given to Moses and Jesus and to the prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and we are Muslims [submitting] to Him."
91. Indeed, those who disbelieve and die while they are disbelievers - never would the [whole] capacity of the earth in gold be accepted from one of them if he would [seek to] ransom himself with it. For those there will be a painful punishment, and they will have no helpers.
Qur’an 3:19, 84, 91
"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the WILL of my Father who is in heaven.
Matthew 7:21
And if you choose to disbelieve in the validity of Joseph Smith as a prophet
Muhammad is not the father of [any] one of your men, but [he is] the Messenger of Allah and last of the prophets. And ever is Allah , of all things, Knowing.
Qur'an 33:40
since Islam allows a man to have four wives
This is to prevent single women who are outnumbered by men so that are also married to prevent promiscuity by men and women but also to give them financial protection. You need to investigate before you spout of.
If a woman married more then one husband, how would you know the father of the unborn child? Makes no sense and clearly all you do is give one liners but do no research in the matter. In other words, you are not striving for any truth.
violates a woman physically, she needs four witnesses. But when an Islamic man wants to condemn a woman for adultery, he doesn't need four witnesses. Yep, even treatment.
Again you have done zero research in the matter and care less about it.
Four witnesses are required in case a women wrongfully makes an accusation of ra**. A man who does, and there are no witnesses, he will still be held to account in the Hereafter and the women compensated by his good deeds being transferred to her in respect of the crime. No one gets off scot free. Similarly for all cases of adultery, 4 witnesses are required, HENCE EQUAL TREATMENT.
Interesting that you ONLY CONDEMN Muslims and no one else. You clearly don't have any empathy for Muslims.
How can you possibly know what Allaah allows, you never stay long enough to investigate.
