Well, I dunno know about him but Mohammad Himself was a GREAT scientist.

hari:V7B71N590 “The climate of Medina did not suit some people so the Prophet ordered them to drink camel urine as a medicine.”

Yes,

And, he’s a hypocrite on his deathbed:

Bukhari:V5B59N735 “We poured medicine in one side of the Prophet’s mouth and he started pointing to us, meaning to say, ‘Don’t pour medicine in me.’ When he felt a little better, he said, ‘Didn’t I forbid you to pour medicine in my mouth.’ We said, ‘We thought it was because of the dislike patients have for them.’ He said, ‘Let everyone in the house be given medicine by pouring it in his mouth while I am looking at him.’”

Revenge !!!

And then,

Bukhari:V5B59N730 “Aisha said, ‘It was one of the favors of Allah towards me that His Apostle expired in my apartment on the day of my turn while he was leaning on my chest and Allah made my saliva mix with his at his death. Abd-Rahman entered upon me with a Siwak in his hand and I was supporting Muhammad against my chest. I saw the Prophet looking at it and I knew that he loved the Siwak, so I said, ‘Shall I take it for you.’ He nodded. It was too stiff for him to use and I softened it as He nodded his approval. He cleaned his teeth with it, crying, “Death has its tortures.”‘”

Tabari IX:183 “Aisha said, ‘Muhammad rubbed his teeth with it more energetically than I had ever seen him doing before. Then he put it down, and I found him getting heavy in my lap…and he died.’”

I guess, if someone had poured camel’s piss in my mouth, I’d be brushing my teeth too…Imminent Death notwithstanding.

Why do I think the “Christians” here will use any cures the Muslims discover if the need arises?

Because you’re ignorant and somehow believe they’ll find cures we haven’t already found and apparently don’t know that stem cells can easily be obtained without any ethical dilemmas.

Interestingly, the Catholic church has made use of this standard in the past as well; as late as the middle of the 19th Century, the Catholic standard was a similar 116 days.

I’ve read that historically, the church determined that “ensoulment” occurred at 90 days. I’ve also read that for most Orthodox Jews, a fetus is not considered a human until delivery.

Now I’m curious to know Hindu and Buddhist teachings about abortion.

The scary part is that AFAIK scientists didn’t actually know this until AFTER they tested it.

“sure, it might annihilate our planetsolar system but what the hell*pushes button*”

So how exactly is this collider supposed to benefit mankind anyway?

While our scientists struggle with ethics, the Islamic world forges ahead

Its good that they’re forging ahead. They only have about 2,000 years of catch up to work on.

Is there an a$$hat of the day award?

You have just insulted the prophet, may pieces of sh!t be upon him! That is forbidden by Islamic law. It is a major act of disbelief and he who commits this is considered a dissident of Islam, because it falls within the framework of supporting disbelievers over Muslims. You can not act against the will of Allah and side with the infidels and their Hotair stooges.

Aleph on August 13, 2008 at 12:20 AM

Bwahahahahahahaha….Whatever. Allah can go to Hell, I’ll stick with Christ.

So when did they make up this 120 days after conception business? I mean who knew?

bloggless on August 12, 2008 at 10:35 PM

It’s about when the first movements of a fetus are detectable by the mother. This is traditionally called “quickening“, and is a common standard, historically, for determining when a fetus should be considered fully “alive.” Interestingly, the Catholic church has made use of this standard in the past as well; as late as the middle of the 19th Century, the Catholic standard was a similar 116 days.

Why do I think it’s because you’re an elitist tool who looks down his/her/it’s nose at those folks?

Man, this is a rough subject. I cannot detach embryos or foetuses from their humanity. I love baby kittens too

Think happy thoughts. Think happy thoughts

How’s his nose? LOL

Allah knows all and sees all infidel you are in how your former president say in deep doodoo up to your neck now infidel. You had best convert soon and maybe Allah in his mercy will spare you.

No need It’s so full of holes that you could just walk right in. :)

OldEnglish on August 13, 2008 at 1:02 AM

Oh thank you infidel we will get on that you may have just saved us a lot of Saudi money that we can put to other good uses.

Hey are you guys putting out RFPs for the design work on those flags? I could sure use a little affirmative action over here.

RushBaby on August 13, 2008 at 12:58 AM

What is RFP infidel? Request for peace? You can have peace but you must submit to Allah first and pay a tax for the rest of your infidel life.

I never would have guessed.

We will soon get control of them too infidel and “There is no God but Allah” will be fluttering in the wind over them too, Allah willing.
