    IF A CHILD IN A MUSLIM FAMILY DECIDES NOT TO BE MUSLIM, THE CHILD IS OSTRACIZED. THE CHILD IS SHUNNED BY HIS FAMILY.

  • HASSAN 12 years ago

    IT THEREFORE GOES WITHOUT SAYING THAT THERE IS EQUALLY A COMPULSION IN CHRISTIANITY BECAUSE SAME THING HAPPENS IN CHRISTIANDOM IF AND ONLY IF YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF COMPULSION IS TO SHUN AND OBSTRACIZED

    First of all you are wrong on so many front I don't even know where to start.

    The quran is notoriously known for passing other peoples work as it's own. How this trash is believed to be holy is beyound any belief. Personally l think Moby Dick is even more holier than the quran.

  • Adjaloo Kweku Nenya 12 years ago

    You are not serious to compare Moby Dick to the Quran.

    Moby Dick is about the vanity of man and his pursuit of material things. The lunacy of Captain Ahab in his pursuit of the great shark epitomizes our existing greed wh ...
