Salaam to all,
Nice one Faz, here's a nice poem:

All our knowledge brings us nearer to our ignorance,
All our ignorance brings us nearer to death,
But nearness to death, not nearness to God.
Where is the life we have lost in living?
Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge?
Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?
The cycle of heaven in twenty centuries,
Brings us farther from God and nearer to dust.

[bornagain]

1 Corinthians 1:19-21

For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe.

Jesus is Lord and saviour of the world.

John 8:23-25 And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.

I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.

Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.

Bornagain saved by Jesus's grace and mercy!

WE ARE THE WAY WE ARE BECAUSE OF ADAM(MAN)
AND NOW WE ARE PAYING THE PRICE FOR IT!

SO DON`T BLAME ALLAH OR ANYONE ELSE FOR OUR MISSERY, ORIGINALY ALLAH HAD A FAR BETTER INOCENT LIFE PLANNED FOR US.

WE ATE THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT NOW WE MUST SUFFER.
WE WILL HAVE PRIDE, WE WILL BE HANDICAPPED,WE WILL HAVE PAIN AND ALL THE OTHER STUFF YOU LISTED.
