 >>LL> It is obvious that you are too ignorant to notice your own ignorance.

The trouble with your mirror is that you can't see that it reflects you as an
asshole.

 LL> [..]

 >>LL> Now for the fun part.

 >>RW> Yeah! :o)

 >>LL> Here is what the *real* Holy Quran (9:11) says -

 >>RW> Ummmm. You've misquoted 9:11 - A G A I N !

 >>LL> Quited quite correctly.  Translation by Mohammed Marmaduke Pickthall.

 RW>> Quoted incompletely, as noted below.

 LL> Quoted completely, and correctly, given that I have the particular Quran

Pickthall is a dumbass.

 >>LL> "But if they repent and establish worship and pay the poor-due,

 >>RW> YUSUFALI: But (even so), if they repent, establish regular prayers,

 >>RW> PICKTHAL: But if they repent and establish worship and pay the
 >>RW> poor-due, then are they your brethren in religion. We detail Our
 >>RW> revelations for a people who have knowledge.

 >>RW> SHAKIR: But if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate,
 >>RW> they are your brethren in faith; and We make the communications
 >>RW> clear for a people who know.

 >>LL> Not all translations of the Quran are good translations.

 RW>> Especially the one you've chosen.

 LL> Again, you show your own ignorance.

 >>LL> Pickthall's translation is one of the best, given that he was a
 >>LL> Muslim, was fluent in Arabic, and had an excellent command of the
 >>LL> English language.

 RW>> If so, then why did he misquote the real verses?

 LL> You really are truly ignorant.

 LL> The Quran is in Arabic.  Pickthall's translated it into English.
 LL> That is why it is known as Pickthall's translation of the Quran.

 >>LL> Most other translations are very poor, having been written by
 >>LL> non-Muslims, by those who knew little Arabic, or by those who had
 >>LL> little knowledge of the English language.

 RW>> Such as yourself.

 LL> I am not fluent in Arabic.

Which means that you're as ignorant as the next person who believes what
Pickthall
has told you.

 LL> I am not Muslim.

You didn't have to tell me, I already knew that by your insistance that the
book
you've read is somehow the gospel on the Quran.

 LL> That is why any translation of the Quran I might attempt (whether
 LL> into English or any other language) would be doomed to failure.

So you admit that you don't know what you're talking about. Finally, the truth
comes
out.

 LL> Pickthall was fluent in Arabic, and in English, as well as being
 LL> a Muslim.  That is why Pickthall's translation is considered to be
 LL> an excellent translation.  Especially by Muslims and scholars.

Not by this muslim...

 >>LL> BTW, you might want to learn how to properly spell Pickthall's name.

 RW>> I couldn't care less..

 LL> Again, you show your own ignorance.

If not caring how his name is spelled shows ignorance, guess who's just been
shown to be the ignorant one in stating so.

 >>LL> As you can plainly see, the message I posted in 2003 was intended
 >>LL> to see how many folks were ignorant of the Quran and what it says.

 >>RW> Actually, it was a sign of your stupidity. Misquoting isn't a very
 >>RW> honest practice, especially among the less educated folks like you.

 >>LL> My quote of the Quran was correct, as noted above.  It was your
 >>LL> ignorance of the Quran which is showing.

 RW>> You quote of the Quran is very incorrect...

 LL> It is quite correct.

Wrong!

 >>LL> By revealing your ignorance, you have proven yourself to be a fool.
 >>LL> :)

 >>RW> Look real close in that mirror...it's your image that look like the
 >>RW> fool, not only that but a very stupid fool...

 >>LL> Apparently you have never looked in a real mirror.  If you had, it
 >>LL> probably would have scared you to death.

 RW>> Actually, I admire myself many times a day, as I'm so handsome.

 LL> You are delusional.

You've never seen me, so you can't make even an educated guess. This means that
your
statement is from your own dilusion.

 >>LL> And then we would have missed all the fun posts you have made in this
 >>LL> forum.  ;)

 RW>> Are you a high yeller? The most ugly species ever to leave the loins of
 RW>> the frogs...

 LL> This frog is a prince.

You mispelled that, it's; p r i c k. Repeat after me, Lee Lofaso the frog, is
also a
prick.
