so anyone got an Idea of whats on showtime or orbit this week?
or recommend a good dvd from the dvd lady?

I always like to watch the Grinch or Nightmare before Christmas... give me a new perspective on Christmas...

Think they are showing the whole Star Wars saga on Showtime on Christmas day if that's your thing... Stuffed full of food and wine, watching mindless action movies... stuff of heaven

I watched this TV show about the Prophet Mohamed the other night. The Prophet was in the show... well, except he wasn't. You see it's against islam to portray images of the prophet.

Therefore, it showed people talking to him (but never him) and then the person would come out and say to the others 'Mohamed said he wouldn't stop'.

It was interesting and all that... but it does make me laugh at the silliness of some religious ideologies and dogmatic doctrine.

Whats the programme called? I'd like to watch something educational about the prophet if there is re-runs or if I can get it on DVD.

Please explain about the part where the people said the prophet would't stop... stop what?

Stop amassing followers and teaching the words of the prophets and Allah and that there was only one god. Apparently Mecca worshiped many gods and was not into Christianity or Judaism either.

I don't know the name, but it was on MBC4 I think... I will check the guide and get back to you.

Not sure who played Mohamed.

I know it doesn't fin into their teachings, but what is wrong with having many Gods?

Cheers if you don't mind checking for me. Its always good to learn new things I think...

Because there is only one god, not many. That is the fundamental principle of Judaism/Christianity/Islam.

I know that mate and you know that too. BUt my question is why? I know it doesn't fit into their teachings, but why not?

Or is this a redundant question?!?!

Well... having multiple gods won't fit into your teaching if the basic reason your religion exists is to honour one AND ONLY ONE God.

DOH!!!

Stupid question... Sorry wasn't really thinking am I?!

Well, even the new age Hinduism teaches.But with a difference.. saying there may b diff gods but they are all incarnations of the supreme soul, the universal truth... Brahman...
