Agreed, thank you for the insightful conversation

To me the the hadiths are against what is said in the Quran about it being complete and sufficient. If it’s not, then those surahs are wrong, which takes some credibility off of it.

In comparison the New Testament is supposedly about Jesus, but a huge part of it is actually texts written by Paul who never even met Jesus (at least in flesh)

In the end It’s Pauls teachings that divide christians, and it’s the hadiths that divide muslims.

There is a small but existent group of Quranic muslims, who accept only Quran as the complete and total revelation from Allah.

But I resist the urge to start going through different sects and their views on their religion, rather I’d focus here on the historical aspect of what an arabian couple did or did not do on their wedding night some 1400 years ago, and that the strongest evidence is something that has passed through six people until eventually written down a couple of hundred years after the event.

For some, probably practical reason the full isnad or chain of information is usually not translated, so while the English translation says it’s in her own words, it’s actually been passed through 6 people, as written in the complete Arabic text.

I agree that not everything is what it seems at first, I just fear it’s wishful thinking in this case.

Some others have also suggested that this was done out of spite, however after reading the github I didn’t see anything said to support that. Are you sure you’re not reading something into this that’s not there?

The bigger the logo the less it costs. The expensive ones have usually a small well placed logo, so the post is already kinda right.

I nearly spat out my tea

Window panels on top floor is a good start, third panel missing, fourth the mans legs

Edit: third is clearly the entrances pillars. So yes, this is loss.

As a straight man, I would top it with a casual cap or decent sunglasses, like these fine gentlemen

By the way, I actually put in some effort in that comment to you which you downvoted. To me that felt a bit disrespectful of you.

You have to ask some Hindu about it. Maybe if you’re less argumentative and more eager to learn they’ll tell.

That’s only your view of it, and if it suits you then so be it.

I think the Hindu school of thought is described here, that there is one truth (god), but it has many manifestations (religions)

Then there is the Stoic view of Logos, which is the ”natural order” of the world. It’s a philosophical view, but according to it Logos has a divine source and it’s up to the individual to align with it and accept it. So since Logos contains multiple religions, does it matter which ones are right or wrong, rather how to align yourself with them?

That is one way to see it, but it’s also possible to have a more pluralistic view. Like in India which has a long tradition of many religions co-existing with respect.

I’d ve interested to try an Elektron with scenes, where you can fade from one sequence to another (if I understood correctly)
