I think there’s a term missing from the article. In the military, “balls” is used for zeros in military time when specifying time between 24:00 and 01:00. Like 30 min after midnight is 00:30 or “balls thirty”.

1·4 months agoNot knowing the language is a problem which doesn’t fully eliminate the issue, you’re right, but it does eliminate the possibility of changing the written scriptures. As a result there will always be thinkers who can return to the original text and come to their own conclusions, challenging the prevailing thoughts of their region or era, something that has repeatedly occurred in Muslim history.

2·4 months agoThe Koran and Torah yield similar results. I think that is the main reason why religions try, or have tried in the past, to restrict reading to a select few leaders and try to keep the propaganda to what they want it to mean at any given time in history.
Regarding the Koran, your statement is verifiably false. It was widely read and memorized by the masses so that a select few leaders couldn’t control what they want it to mean.






Soooo who’s going to add it to the article? 😁
