Lately I have taken a big interest in the religion of Islam

 

Listening to podcasts ,YouTube and even the Quran I find it very academic 

 

It all started one night around 8pm I found a beautiful man in the swimming pool at the air bnb condom I was staying in.

 

He was from Bangladesh and studying islam on his vacation 

 

I never knew there was mosques in Pattaya until I sent to the Universe gym and could see one

 

Islam seems such a academic religious beliefs and I am thinking about studying it further it has many life's lessons in it 

.the negativity is I believe the people pray only for themselves and their selfish desires eg more money for themselves, etc ...they don't pray for other things for others ...I would be very interested in the statistics on this by interviews and asking them 

 

Is there anyone on here who converted to another religion particularly Islam or reconverted

 

I must say after reading up on Islam I find any of the ones you see bad stories about are not really Muslim in the sense 

I once saw a lady in a hijab stealing from a supermarket 

to me she is not really a Muslim 

 

Such a fascinating religion and I will try to further study this 

 

There is many life principles in this religion

beautiful how? you were physically attracted to him because his balls were sticking out of his Speedo?

 

or do you mean he had "a beautiful mind" because he was well versed in the Quran?

 

Yep, study the Quran and maybe one day you too will have ... A Beautiful Mind

 

And then you'll need to study the difference between Shi'a and Sunni.  

But then I've been a Buddhist for the better part of my adult life.  Those who follow Abrahamic religions seem to have a perchance for wanting to kill other members of different Abrahamic religions.  "Don't kill sentient beings," is at the top of the list in Buddhism.

Yes very interesting although it seems a religion with never ending study 

I have imagined dressing up in the white gown and even looking to become the same as a Imam

As im studying this religion more in-depth I find many of the things muslims do or say is not in principle of Islam

Or just move to London. 

I'ḿ still pondering the "condom "  GG was staying in  !

Is that a new slang word for condo?

But moving on a little ..... Ignorant  people accept dogma of all sorts . Religion is the one people are culturally indoctrinated into from birth. 

Sadly political partisan convictions are not far behind in number.

Causality  usually same.

I was also thinking of studying Islam more closely.

 

Any religion that allows you to be married to four women clearly has an edge.

You don't need religion for that. Just a lot of patience, a high tolerance for stress, and a decent sized bank account.

Really?

One is a big enough pain in the arse.

Unfortunately, this is a car crash waiting to happen- given what's already needed to be removed, it will only get worse and require constant monitoring.
