Does Islam Require Forced Conversions?

My official IQ scoring was 163 in forced IQ tests in High school.We had a chick who hit 171.
She went on to become one of france's leading researchers in genetics. I sucked at school and struggled to maintain C's and went to study sociology, psychology, anthropology and marketing.

My son brings back homework I need to google to help him with.

IQ doesn't mean ***.

You are greatly missing the point here. It's that guy who made a point to give importance to IQ. Reread the posts and maybe you'll see why he got those answers.

I didn't bring up mine to brag either, but in response to his "white women are dumber".

This is what I actually posted some days ago in another thread, regarding intelligence

I'm guilty of skimming through stuff a bit too fast and ignoring a lot of it, especially the stuff that is borderline insane. Wasn't addressing the IQ comment to you. Just adding to the discussion.

A true test of intellectual aptitude and mental health are psychometric assessments. I think IQ is just a number for potential, and EQ is just a means for gauging how in-tune one is with society.

You keep showing to me and everyone how close minded and shallow you are. It never says anywhere in the Quran that for a Martyr to receive 72 virgins.

Now the real Question should be, from where did you get that source? Oh wait, you don't have none so let me give you some knowledge about this matter, but surely you will end up disagreeing with what I say.

This line, "72 virgins", has been used many times to explain suicide bombings. The idea is that if you die in "Jihad" you will go to heaven and receive "72 Virgins".

This is false.

When you die, you don't go straight to heaven, you will wait until the judgement day, and you will be judged just like everyone else (Muslim and Non-Muslim).

No where in the Quran does it say that you will receive 72 Virgins when you enter paradise.
How ever, it does say you can have what ever you please, that means anything you want. When you are in Paradise, you can wish for what ever you please, hence you still have "free will".

So where does the idea of 72 virgins comes from?

It is from Hadith, here is the specific Hadith:


"It was mentioned by Daraj Ibn Abi Hatim, that Abu al-Haytham 'Adullah Ibn Wahb narrated from Abu Sa'id al-Khudhri, who heard Muhammad saying, 'The smallest reward for the people of Heaven is an abode where there are eighty thousand servants and seventy-two houri, over which stands a dome decorated with pearls, aquamarine and ruby, as wide as the distance from al-Jabiyyah to San'a."

The truth is, that in Paradise you can have what ever you wish, 72 virgin is just one option, which is not even from the Quran, so it is uncertain.

What does Quran say about heaven?


“There will be for them therein all that they wish,- and more besides in Our Presence” (Quran 50: 35 Translated meaning )

100% agree. There is evidence of this all over the world.
A guy who can draw from memory an entire city as complex and large as London after 1 60 minute fly over - to near perfect detail.

Another guy who can perform complex calculations at the speed of a calculator.

But I've seen other kinds of genius, like a woman who can hear 3 conversations spoken in 3 different languages at the same time and then transcribe all 3 conversations without any error whatsoever - even though she doesn't necessarily speak or understand any of the languages. Blew my mind that one!

Have you heard of the tribe in India that survive throughout the entire year living off sun light?

I wish I had this ability too, I don't like eating :(

It just goes to show that they have been indoctrinated by Al Qaeda and ISIS radical doctrine.

Its worrying because there is a lot of information on Islam out there but some choose to listen to ISIS,Al Qaeda and FOX news instead.

I like how Fox news is put next to two terrorist organizations.

Good video - people like Jet would benefit



Feminist Muslim (this girl reminds me so much of my Boss at work, just 20 years younger)

I don't who it is that is always saying Islam spread through the sword, but they would benefit to increase their knowledge on how the Islamic empire rose

Depends on the school district and university.

Short answer: yes, it is possible

Can you imagine reading a CV written by this guy?
Let alone the cover letter.

I don't want to put him down any more. The tough exterior he/she presents is over compensating for a lot. But many here on these forums are also "internet tough guys/girls".

The more he is spoken of and targeted the more he will feel compelled to counter. So lets just let it be and move on.

My advice to him is to work hard and study. Its never late to improve oneself and grow. Many remarkable people have been late bloomers and succeeded at their life's mission.

It starts however by being honest with yourself and realizing there is room to grow.

That should make you feel empowered and liberated once it is truly realized - growth = living. Stagnation = death.

"Get busy living or get busy dying"


EDIT: Refreshazure if you truly believe your own words in the above post then you will realize you are the product of the content you consume and indulge in. If I had your gift or curse, if you really have it, I would not waste my time consuming the drivel of these forums as it is polluted with gibberish, false information for the most part. If your memory isn't as selective as the average person's without any filtration on what to retain and what to toss out, you are setting yourself up for insanity by continuing to read and participate here.

That is the logical conclusion, if you do not recognize it, then you need to understand that you're deluded and need to crawl out from underneath yourself.

I didn't say that cause I was implying a poor language to denote a low intelligence. But I thought one needed to have a certain level of linguistic competence to be admitted in college. That's all.

Also, I know dyslexia is a thing, but you made it a point multiple times to let us know you have a poor education.

You test my patience.

You think that's testing patience?! *pokes repeatedly with a stick*

Easy Mald, the dude is obviously insane lol.

just a reminder: Never argue with an idiot. Anyone passing by wouldn't be able to differentiate the two.

Let it go.

I gave him the benefit of the doubt but he seems to be just another e-thug hell bent on causing a ***storm of "*** islam".

You are supposed to. But college admittance requirements are not standardized.

Community colleges (associate degree, begininng bachlors) have to accept everyone with a high school diploma or equilivant (for FL, not sure if this is standard in all states). However, remedial courses can be required.

There are also "degree factories" in the US where it is basically based on your ability to pay.

The "complimentary" and "honorary" degree business is picking up.
It's a bogus practice but they are getting very good at appearing legitimate these days.

I received an email stating that I was being granted an honorary Masters degree for my work in the fields of PR & Marketing. The email mentioned some projects and marketing campaigns that I lead in europe and the middle east. It also made mention that it verified my academic credentials.I'll be honest and say that at first glance I thought it was the real deal. It wasn't until I spoke to them on the phone and asked some hard questions that I managed to finally get them to start cursing and insulting me.

I don't know how they have the time to target specific individuals and still profit. Perhaps this is an undesired side effect of social media.

What's next - emails stating a family member is hospitalized and the Hospital won't allow him to stay unless x-amount is transferred to an account?

Way too short. It's true that it's on decline, but unless some major holy war happens it's gonna take much much longer before it fades.

edit: or major discoveries in quantum physics

edit2: or aliens

How do I block people so I can forget they and their gibberish exist?
