Err your point? You went to some orphanage in India to help some kids with AIDs? Are you expected everyone to applaud?

Wow...well done! My point was RD, and I know you are smarter than this, is that you were wrong with your "judgement" of me. That post was for your benefit and in defense of myself and who I am. But it is obvious that no one can win with you. You're just a bully. You will bash everyone no matter what they say. So I'm done with you. Good luck finding more people to annoy and bully which is your only motive here.
Peace and Love to you!

Well, as long as people like you are hopeless about the possibility of changing things, and call people who are trying to make a difference naive or not worthy of your attention, you're right. There are LOTS of you on this board who would PREFER the world to end, and soon!, and see no way out.
I will never live with that kind of despair. I will always look for solutions, and suggest them. You are free to skip my posts and wallow in your black misery of negativity all you want. Don't expect me (or anyone else) to join you there.
What you CAN expect is to be told that you are PART OF THE PROBLEM if you are NOT part of the solution.
So, booya.
I don't know what the hell your problem is, but you are very negative, jaded, and your ATTITUDE is COUNTERPRODUCTIVE.
Sitting on a computer calling for love and peace is doing nothing but make you look like a fool. Please don't judge me. If you've seen my previous posts, I never act like this. But when I see people like you on this forum, it makes me tear my hair out and stamp on the floor.
A defense? That was pathetic. You do know that most students will end up doing the same thing around the world? Does it suddenly make them loving? compassionate? Good people? No it doesn't. They only do it for their university applications. You start mentioning how people on this forum are ignorant while you talk about non-existence love and peace for others. That is true ignorance. Now call me a bully, I couldn't care less, but think more about what you say. In the end, love will never triumph.
Your calling me counterproductive eh? Well your not being productive either. Sitting on a computer calling for love and peace is doing nothing but make you look like a fool. Please don't judge me. If you've seen my previous posts, I never act like this. But when I see people like you on this forum, it makes me tear my hair out and stamp on the floor. Look at the world around you! Take of the rose-tinted glasses for heavens sake! It's much better to see the world through a realistic perspective rather than acting like you! Its not called being negative. It's not call being miserable. It's normal thinking.
Originally a priest Christian, al-Dari lived in southern Palestine and belonged to the Bani al-Dar—a clan of the Banu Lakhm tribal confederation. His first contact with Muhammad was in 628 CE when he led a delegation of ten other Bani al-Dar members. Previously Muhammad granted Bani al-Dar a part of the revenues of conquered land after the Muslim victory at the Battle of Khaybar. Al-Dari confronted Muhammad to receive the revenues and after meeting him, al-Dari embraced Islam and settled in Medina.
Great explanation of Dajjal
“Narrated al-Nawwas ibn Sam'an: ….We said: Allah’s Messenger (peace be upon him), how long will he stay on Earth? He said: For forty days, one day like a year, one day like a month, one day like a week, and the rest of the days will be like your days….”(Sahih, Muslim; Sunan, Tirmidhi)
It will only be at the very end of his life on earth, therefore, that Dajjal’s day will be like our day. Secondly, Dajjal, the False Messiah, will be in ‘our’ dimension of time when ‘his day’ would be like ‘our day’. Hence he would be in ‘our’ world only at the very end of his life when he enters into ‘our’ world in order to complete his mission of
impersonating the Messiah.
The promise of Allah Most High was that the Messiah would rule the world from the throne of David (‘alaihi al-Salaam), i.e. from a Jerusalem that would be the heart of the State of Israel. And so it is clear that Dajjal will be
physically located in Jerusalem at the very end of his life on earth, and at that time, since ‘his day would be like our day’, it would be possible for us to see him. At that time we would see him as a Jew, a young man, powerfully built, with curly hair etc. He would also have to be the Ruler of the world who would rule the world from Jerusalem.

Thank you very much for the information here. I have studied theology over many years and this Dajjal or Islamic version of the supposed Anti-Christ is new to me. I will study it further. I don't believe in an Anti-Christ so perhaps I passed over it without giving it much thought when I read the Qur-an.
I find the Qur'an to be much like the old testament. Although, one thing I enjoyed was early in the book it stated that Christians, Jews and Sabians need to stop fighting with one another. That was actually quite refreshing to read.
As far as the arguing, arguments always spring from discussions on anything. Much can be learned from an argument. For me an argument and a debate are the same thing. I, however, certainly don't believe arguments require name calling and any other form of rude behavior. Expressing opinions in a rude manner tends to make one miss the message and only remember the nastiness...
Peace...
an antiChrist is anyone who denies that Jesus Yeshua Yehoshua (however you want to spell it) is the Christ. That would include traditional Jews, Muslims, atheists infact anyone who isn't a Christian.
With that in mind, the muslim description of the antiChrist is not to be relied upon.
And to some of the posters above, what has your arguing got too do with the topic of the thread?
Just a different look at the subject. I don't think Islam is what we should be worried about. It seems as though Dajjal/Antichrist will possibly be one of our own or a Jew
So he could either be posing as a Muslim or a Jew but will be a hypocrite.
