No, it means God is Great.
Usually followed by gunfire or kaboom.

It sure as Hell does. And the truth is exactly what you try to suppress.
I don't have to; I know what I was responding to. Apparently it's really hard for you to understand what I responded to, and hence also my response.
Bummer.
Yet again, you demosntrate that you have no idea what you're talking about.

Stick to the topic, no one cares about your supposed clarifications except you.
You really think the longer the apology the better? Wrong again.
Not only do you mistake the meaning of the words "Allahu Akbar", but now you seem to mistake the meaning of the word 'apology'...because I wasn't apologizing for anyone - I was simply pointing out your paranoiac assumptions.
Call it whatever you want.
So when Muslims chant, "God is Great" outside of a church it is a terror threat, but when men strapped with loaded weapons stand outside of mosques they are exercising their rights?
Some will never learn the definition of both apology and apologetics to the point of being able to make the distinction, anyway.Not only do you mistake the meaning of the words "Allahu Akbar", but now you seem to mistake the meaning of the word 'apology'...because I wasn't apologizing for anyone - I was simply pointing out your paranoiac assumptions.
No. Unlike you and Humpty Dumpty, we select words for their actual meaning, and don't ascribe to them whatever meaning we feel like at the time.
“When I use a word… it means just what I choose it to mean – neither more nor less.” Humpty Dumpty.

This is such a case.

Killing all Humanity: How Obama Misinterprets Quran 5:32 and Passes a Noble Jewish Teaching as Islamic
“[005:032] On that account: We ordained for the Children of Israel that if any one slew a person - unless it be for murder or for spreading mischief in the land - it would be as if he slew the whole people: and if any one saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of the whole people. Then although there came to them Our apostles with clear signs, yet, even after that, many of them continued to commit excesses in the land.”
The first thing to note is that, the command (allegedly of Allah) applies to the “Children of Israel” (i.e. Jews). It does not apply to Muslims. Probably, that is why you find a lot of killings of innocent civilians by extremist Muslims today. The extremist Muslims read nothing but the Koran and know their stuff better than the moderate Muslims and non-Muslims who don’t read the Quran.
Secondly, the verse does not use the word “innocent” anywhere, in any translation, which you can see at this link from Islamist site.
Thirdly, a person can be slain for (i) murder or (ii) for spreading mischief in the land (fasad). Now what is spreading mischief in the land (fasad)? The next verse 5:33 says:
It can actually be taken as there being some people that use words they don't know the meaning of, in the process being satisfied with what they believe those to mean, and there are others who take the time and make the effort to formulate with precision.You know, that could be taken one of two ways. I'll choose the better way, of course. Thanks! :2wave:
So "Praise the lord" is fine in Church, but "God is great" is not?

I'm willing to bet heavily on you belonging to the second group.
The first lot can incidentally often be seen as also lacking in the field of spelling as well as sentence structure and overall grammar. That what they nevertheless attempt to formulate usually smacks of ignorance in content thus comes hardly as a surprise.
Shoddy writing should not lead to expecting anything other than shoddy thinking from the same source.
And logic is the last thing to expect.

Christians don't start whacking peoples' heads off or blow themselves up after saying "Praise the Lord"
Next to my late English prof. I'd earn the label "dyslexic", either of us next to certain posters would make us both the Nobel laureate(s).Y'know, every once in a while I start thinking that I've got a little knowledge, but then someone comes along who has indeed drunk deeply from that Pierian spring. My proficiency with the English language is not what I'd prefer, but at least I can recognize such skill when I see it. Cheers!
And that is relevant how? Every Muslim on the planet says Alhua Akbar every day.. many times a day, and they are blowing themselves up?
You persistently refusing to accept reality will only get you the label of aplogizer (with an "s" for the Brits and probably not misspelt already, like here).:mrgreen:And that is relevant how?
