The Ahmadiyya is an Islamic religious movement founded in India near the end of the 19th century, originating with the life and teachings of Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (1835-1908). It has centers in 195 countries and a membership in the tens of millions.

Ahmad advocated peaceful propagation of Islam and argued against the necessity of Jihad in the present age. He argued that Jihad was initially necessary for the first Muslims who were being attacked by pagans, but that it was unjustified against the British who were giving the Muslims religious freedom to practice their faith.

Ahmad also claimed that Jesus wasn't executed on the cross, but that he traveled to India and lived his remaining days in Kashmir.

Ahmad accepted evolution.

Ahmad wrote over 80 books on various religious, spiritual, and theological issues. His writings are now available for free on the Internet.

Well, in many ways, Islam, violent and non violent is overwhelming the West because these people believe in marriage and family and making many many kids. Women are subservient to men and men can have up to 4 wives. Not a bad deal. While there are extreme cases, most Muslim women are quite happy. White white Christians are dying out, these keep procreating. Numerically the future is theirs. And the feminists will just die out anyway.

Islamic Books are an essential part of learning about the religion of Islam. I want to get some knowledge from these books. Can you tell me from where I can get free islamic books?

I'll check it out

4 wives sounds goods to me. Not the religion though.

its really good see this kind of information. I have found some great Online Islamic Books source.

@MrPeabody

I got a question. How do you explain all the verses in the Koran that call for violence and killing of infidels, which people quote and use against Islam? How do you explain that or account for it if Islam is a non-violent religion?

What is wrong with violence? Most people alive today deserve to be killed.

I follow the Old Testament which is actually more violent than the Quran.

Lol. How come then most New Age people claim that "most people are wonderful people"? lol. You and George Carlin say the opposite, that most people are scumbags. lol. Who is right?

I would say that most people are not good or evil, but they are selfish scumbags. For instance, most people would not even return a library book if there were no penalties. Most people who borrow something from me never return it. If I hound them about it they keep saying ok ok, but they don't and eventually when they move, the borrowed object is lost in the move and gone forever. I hate that. So I never loan anything out to people anymore unless I know they are responsible about keeping their promises. Unfortunately the most reliable people are the anal retentive types. Very few people are virtuous anymore.

Don't religious people say that the OT doesn't apply anymore to the modern world, and only to the ancient world?

The question remains if Ahmadiyya are Muslims. In Pakistan, a very hardliner Muslim country they are not allowed to call themselves Muslims.
Many Muslims worldwide consider them as heretics or infidels.
It's a rather new religion or cult, created around 1900. Not really Muslim, but also not really Christian.

So you think about yourself you also deserve to become a victim of violence and even to be killed?

BTW, The Old Testament is also a part of the Quran.

How so? The Qur'an endorses the Taurat, Mazmur, and Injil (Torah, Psalms, and Gospel) and indicates that these are true writings, but modern Muslims say the versions of the Bible available today are corrupted. The thing is, there is plenty of evidence that these books have been preserved well since way before Muhammad's lifetime. For example, the dead sea scrolls contained a copy of the book of Isaiah from 200 AD which speaks of Christ's death.

While 4 wives sounds good the question remains however who will pay for them? Only rich Muslim men can do that.
Muslim women and their parents are known to be rather materialistic and to ask for a lot of money.
Many poor Muslim men have no other choice but to stay alone or with some male friends.

Because they are morons.

You and George Carlin say the opposite, that most people are scumbags. lol. Who is right?

Who do you think is smarter, George Carlin and me or New Age people?

I would say that most people are not good or evil, but they are selfish scumbags.

Most people are evil because they are morons who learn evil from the evil elite. Masks for example. The way to avoid this is to give the people good religious guidance.

Don't religious people say that the OT doesn't apply anymore to the modern world, and only to the ancient world?

This is mostly correct because modern people have become too stupid to understand the OT. The OT does apply but is only relevant for those with the intelligence to understand it.

No it isn't. The Ahmadiyya treat Ahmad like a prophet which means that they are not Muslim. And in fact they are liberal degenerate scum.
