So be it on your free will and choice that you go your path you deemed right and me mine. But eventually, our paths will converge and meet at the feet of our common Creator...
I bid you adieu then. But before that, I wish you a steadfast Ramadan. Do remember it is not a punishment, a chore, or an obligation as a muslim. You do so only at your own free will, to seek forgiveness and to have a closer relationship with Allah.
And when you break your fast daily, as you feast upon the bounties of food laid before you - the sweet dainties, the spicy fishes, the kebabs, stews of mutton and chicken broth and steaming hot rice, do ponder upon such bounties.
They are not your rewards, but love from Allah for you, for only through his love and blessings in your life would such bounties be seen and partakened before you. As you feast upon it, do remember the family whom lived only a few streets away from you, a father who had recently lost his job.
His children are starving, and may you share your bounties and blessings with them.
The purpose of this post is to show you that our Creator is not just some strict dispenser of justice as you made Him out to be, only capable of dishing out rewards and punishments.
If only you had studied history and crossed reference with other knowledge would you know how much He loved, cared and concerned about mankind throughout civilisation and lived within our hearts throughout.
No matter our specialities in careers, our skin and eye color, our system of worship, nationality, etc, we are all humans first, His creations and His children.
Peace be unto you, my brother.

I do not deny that God is full of love and that God is not just a question of rewards and punishments. I am someone who is very sensitive and I am really touched by the mercy, the forgiveness, the generosity and the goodness of our God. God is pure good, pure love, pure mercy,.... but he is also the one who punish those who harm the other people and harm themseves, actually he does not even punish them, he just lets the consequencies of their actions fall on them.
God is the guide and he knows who are his true believers, that's what really matters.
Thanks for your nice words.
Peace on you

The Buddha-Nature is within all of us, so this guy is just trying to get fame. He may be enlightened, and he may be beneficial to society, but he is not "the one" we all have the power of "the one".
In Buddhism mythology, a Buddha returns every so often to remind people of the truth of Buddhism, which really just means society goes through cycles of enlightenment and darkness. The "maitreya" or the "coming of the savior" or the "2012 end of the world" or the "Aquarian Conspiracy" is merely a metaphor to mean that society is gaining a new understanding of their existence.
sorry to burst your bubble, but I believe we are our own saviors.

You don't even know me, so please don't speak about what you ignore. You speak about me as if I was a monster without heart. Thanks to God, I know what is true love and compassion.
God is my Master and my Teacher, he provides me ANYTHING I need, I don't need you or anyone else.
You start getting on my nerves by speaking about love love love..... Truth is a much higher value than love.
Whether it pleases you or not, God is the only True Master and he is the one who punishes and who rewards, .
Live your life and let me live mine.
I have no recommandation for you except directing you to the Koran, and I expect NOTHING from you.

I see clear in your little game... keep on playing your comedy, God is watching you.
I won't lose more time with you, God will settle your case.

What game am I playing? You speak of 'truths' and hold it in high regard, so now where is the truth of the supposed 'game' I am playing? Or is it once again, it is NOT truth you seek and speak?
I am sure our Creator will settle this issue, for there is no issue too small for Him. But I will be here, for a matured discussion, after you had comprehend what the Koran is trying to tell you and NOT what your city imman is telling you, or you deluded telling yourself.
Cheers.

God provides a test to debunk the hypocrites:
Let's pray God to destroy the liar and the hypocrite among us. Do it if you are sincere and if you're not, you're only digging deeper and you won't escape the Wrath of God.

NO!!! No way am I gonna do as you command. It's not and not gonna be another 'either you are with us..or against us' BS forced will. Simply because I don't want you hurt and harmed.
It's only your ignorance that is causing you to lie and be the hypocrite here. You can change, but it will have to come from you. I will pray instead for you to be enlightened.

Once again you feign to not understand:
I've told you to pray God to destroy you (not me) if you are a liar, I'll do the same. Each one pray for his own destruction if he's the liar. Anyway, whether you do it or not, God will punish the liar among us.
Let's wait who will be punished for his sins

Nah, I've got your qoute quite correctly, unless you are once again lying. You specified 'amongst us', which mean you are praying for ALL liars and hypocrites to be destroyed, not just specifically me to be destroyed or ( you hoping against hope - you wont be destroyed)
But do as you will, for who amongst us had never lied and never had been a hypocrite in his/her life? We arent perfect beings, and you least of all.
You are seeking only destruction, not only for yourself but for all. See what I mean when you merely mouth platitudes of being compassionate but in TRUTH, you are never compassionate?
You are a destroyer, and not a builder. Wake up, my brother, the time of ignorance is over. We adults all deserve our fate for having failed our Creator's mercy, but at least spare and have mercy on the children. They are innocent.

You see, you're just like a snake, you play with words just like Creme and Maitreya/Raj Patel do.
You perfectly know what I meant, I will re-express it just to clearly expose you:
Let's pray God to destroy the one among us (YOU AND ME, NOT THE OTHERS) who is lying (IN THIS DISCUSSION, NOT IN OUR WHOLE LIFE). Is it clear enough now???
Each one of your new interventions, you inject a bit more your poison,...., of course you always wish me peace at the end.
People like you think they are smart but actually, you are exposed and you're the only one who does not realize it.
