I would say that I have profound "obsession" about hidden miracles of Islamic holy book (which were known only in technocene).


I participated in a project with Japanese scientists about this when i was 19.

In my opinion the real miracle is how it relates to one's mindset n helps recalibrate according to the situation... (Esp if u know or read hadith to accompany it as both complement each other to give a complete context. ) feel similarly about the Bible and any other spiritual messages like Buddha.

For instance with my L and L clerk situation i was frustrated as I was trying to explain how she lied n it made me sound like i was making it up so he didn't believe me

Then i opened it n it opened to Surah Ya-Seen here is what I saw

(This is Muhammad Asads translation ..
he was a Jew who converted author of my fave non fiction book Road to Mecca, and my favourite translator.. Because he is v precise n gets words correctly, as well as being poetic minded ...
so he understands meanings properly eg he knows to say enshrouded rather than covered up to get the meaning more accurately translated)


'around their necks We have put shackles, reaching up to their chins, so that their heads are forced up;
and We have set a barrier before them and a barrier behind them, and We have enshrouded them in veils so that they cannot see:
thus, it is all one to them whether thou warnest them or dost not warn them: they will not believe.'

It was really good for me tp see that as Id been trying to make their manager understand n explain how they were lying as well previously explain to the L how his clerk was still lying..

So it gave me peace of mind to read 'whether u say it or not they won't believe' essentially if someone is so arrogant...

they dont look at things properly (ie necks held up with shackles i.e. cannot look around or below due to pride)...only see what they want to see..

So both those verses helped reset my mindset

Despite being Catholic, I am very "impressed" by numerical miracles associated with Islam, especially the Quran. They give me very much to think.


I just dont think those superficial 'miracles' are as important as the overall message... Which is in keeping with Christianity (except for Jesus not being called son of God only a messenger like Muhammad and countless messengers before)

I mean i think its easy to get lost in this and as a random person (who u are free to ignore)...

I would kindly advise you not to be too mired in this aspect
.....as it is rather superfluous compared to what one can actually learn for benefit of one's self ..


In fact, it can complement your understanding of the Bible... Which is more beneficial to you long term than the interesting small things..like numbers and events being predicted etc.

I have the mentality which hates the idea of eternal damnation and considers divine justice which sends conscious beings to eternal toment to be unimaginable evil which should be fully despised and hated like rape and prostitution.

Despite writing the text above I do not want to be a heretic or distract people from one true faith.

Same here. I don't know if it's something particular to me as I see NTs feel strongly about other things just opposite view of me...

I adjusted a lot from my teens but I still have to check myself.

often I realize something I was so convinced of and spoke of strongly ... Might have hurt someone's feelings as it contradicted their real experiences...or be construed in a way that negated their own problems...

Or that my current knowledge n experiences contradict my previously held views..


Yet some views get stronger as I see more n more evidence to support it..

I was raised Catholic, but I've realized that I actually formed some of my own ideas about religion that don't fit it. I still call myself a Christian, but I don't really fall into any particular denomination.

I have strong anti-Quranic and anti-Catholic thoughts, my mentality hates the teaching of eternal torment.

I think that woman is the most beautiful creature walking on the Earth. My mentality can describe Mother Mary as unimaginably beautiful and sweet woman - who is woman beyond the limits despite lack of divine nature. And is totally antisexual and not attractive sexually. Woman can be very, very beautiful and sweet and not be lust-provoking.

I have managed to make it through life so far without ever having a mullet.

I have a tiny freckle on my baby toe which will confirm my identity, in the event that I'm cloned.

To me, a secret is a secret.


Unless life and death is involved... I won't betray that it is a kept secret even if it's a friend or an ally looking for an enemies' secret that I happened to have.
