I have always struggled with the idea that there was a conscious God before everything and anything, then he created life as we know it today!

This creates a big question for me; " A needy God?"

Some words can only be interpreted and understood through their relationship with other words and meanings. For example the word King can only be completely understood through the function of a king, which is to rule over people.

For sound to exist in its complete form there has to be some listening ears, so that the sound can be heard, acknowledged and may be appreciated. If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

A lonely God roaming the universe with extreme powers and abilities and no one around to appreciate the might of this lonely force! This must have been tough!

The word God can only be understood through worshipers. Other beings who can actually witness this force and acknowledge its existence.

Could God have created us for this very purpose? To be worshiped, acknowledged and loved?
This notion creates a predicament that God is just as needy as us, therefore his divinity is nothing but a fairy tale. He is just one of us!

On the other hand you hear religious people everyday say that we should be thankful to God for he has given us life. Let's analyse this, shall we!

God creates us out of nothingness to experience life and be put to the test. The vast majority according to the Abrahamic faiths will end up in a eternal torture of hellfire!!

Based on this scenario how can a merciful and an all-wise God creates beings out of nothingness just to torture them for eternity??? I am sure they would choose to go back to the state of nothingness they originated from!

It seems to me that our dear lord is nothing but an old fashioned sadist that takes pleasure in inflecting pain on others for no reason other than they have chosen not to believe in him???
The big ego has been dented and we should suffer for that, even if we did not ask to be brought to existence.

Before we even think which is the one true religion, let's first establish the reason for creation and what kind of God is worthy of our trust and love.

I know this one is a phony!

And man created God in his own image


It's very curious how God in all the Abrahamic faiths behaves like a vulnerable human.

For instance God in the Old Testament gets angry, takes revenge, feels remorse and guilt. Coincidentally around the time of Judaism humans were still culturally immature, spontaneous and displayed a very similar behaviour!

Then in the New Testament God acts like a drama queen and sets up the stage for suffering, crucifixion and resurrection. A typical Greek tragedy that again coincided with the literature, the theatre and the story telling style of that time.

Last but not least, Islam was a true reflection of the environment and culture of the harsh and ignorant Arabian Desert. The Quran copied many stories from the Gospel, with the help of Waraqqa Ibn Nawfal of course, and added to them the spices you expect from 1001 nights or Aladdin Stories!!

Winged angels, horned devils, scary jinns and a flying mule! Muhammad claimed that the Quran was his only miracle. Again, the only thing the Arabs were good at was poetry...Words and only words, coincidentally the Quran (Islam's only miracle) is made of words, Arabic words!

God's last message to the universe and humanity has been revealed in a language so classical, that some of the native Arabs can now hardly understand.

Just go back in memory my dear Muslim and remember the religion class (Hessatt Al-Deen).
It was all about memorising the words, no comprehension needed and if you fail to memorise you know what happened!

Millions of non-Arabic speaking Muslims recite the Quran in Arabic, a language that they can't understand or speak. The miracle of Quran has dissolved, because God forgot that the universe stretches beyond the Arabian Peninsula!!

Over the next few months I will be concentrating on the Quran, its teachings and its many errors. The errors are grammatical, historical, geographical, scientific and mathematical in nature, but above all is the many immoral verses that directly conflict with basic human rights and sound humane conduct.

I expect Muslims to come and defend their religion, I also expect them to use proper reasoning and logical methods to refute my evidence.

Genises....


Well, I am not going to discuss the theological reference of the word just YET.

I just thought that the title is very relevant since this is my very first post in my brand new blog, which will discuss and debate various theological, psychological and philosophical topics.

I always thought that if you want to decipher the codes of a certain written or spoken statement, you will have to understand the background of its originator, so that the circumstances and the motives that give birth to such views can be relevantly understood.

I will make this a little easier for you my dear readers and hopefully participants in the many discussions to come.

I was born in Cairo, Egypt to a small Sunni Muslim family. I could say we were always financially comfortable, however since a very young age I sought financial independence.

I always felt like a fish out of water in Egypt. Although I loved Egypt and by that I mean our real ancient Egyptian heritage and real identity that were lost due the barbaric Arabic-Islamic invasion in Egypt, I never really agreed with the general consented traditions, conduct and above all belief system.

I got a little religious when I was around 13, but by the age of 17 I have figured out the entire plot! I neglected Islam and started my research into all religions known to man, every single statement said by a Philosopher and each single theory developed by a Psychologist or a Scientist.

I was going nuts....I really wanted to know.....I needed answers to keep going!

I left Egypt and Islam all together....I have been studying, living and working in Western countries since 1993....

I am a Linguist who is proficient in Arabic, English, German, Spanish, Italian and French....I have also made a reasonable progress in Hebrew and Latin.

Our manipulation of the word since we started to communicate using languages has been dramatic to say the least....and to know the word, you need to understand the real meaning of the word.....

Over the next few weeks, I will discuss matters that concern all humanity and our intellectual evolution as part of life.

I look forward to chatting with each and everyone of you.
