[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Likewise. And this is why Muslima & I felt it so necessary to correct other pp's absurd distortions of Islam.

These threads may or may not clarify distortions. Based on the conversion rate, I think people are reading and it gets them thinking.

But my goal is not to proselytize, people seem to be going to Islam on their own so they certainly do not need my posts.

But if I read nonsense conclusions made about Islam, I will keep starting new threads to clarify.

And I did read the entire Corinthians passage. You accept Paul but not everything he said. You reject Old Testament but still regard it sacred and consider it part of the Bible. Statues of Mary are always wearing a veil in and even outside of churches. Was she always praying then? Doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Where in New Testament does it explicitly say veils even during prayer no longer required? Without expressly rejecting the veil how do Christians come to the conclusion it is indeed rejected practice? There must be principles in the OT that are not reiterated in the NT but still hold value, no? If everything in the OT was rejected, it would not be considered sacred, no?[/quote]
It doesn't need to be expressly rejected. It just has to be not expressly mandated.

What statues of Mary are wearing isn't necessarily a prescribed attire for all.  It just may be the author's idea of what she looked like, not what all women are supposed to look like. She always wears long dresses because that's how women dressed at the time. It doesn't mean all Christians need to dress like her.[/quote]
