<blockquote>Shined the light so Rohan could see it numbskull</blockquote>
And what do you mean by shine the light so Rohan could see it? You mean the pillar of fire or do you mean like creating a light as bright as the sun?
<blockquote>Not believing a claim is not the same as asserting the claim is wrong.</blockquote>
Yes it is, if you say "I don't believe in God," then it's the same as saying God doesn't exist.
<blockquote>This is your last chance to prove everyone knows you have three accounts, or else the topic is going to be tabled until you can provide proof.</blockquote>
The proof is that I've been using the same name.
<blockquote>Prove to me he could not have extended the light to Rohan and don't engage in assumptions or speculation.</blockquote> Wat do you mean "extend the light to Rohan"? That doesn't make any sense.
<blockquote>I do not believe that there is a giant oil deposit under my house but that does not mean that I am claiming there isn't a giant oil deposit under my house</blockquote> That literally means the same thing. Not believing in something is the same as claiming it isn't true.
<blockquote>Are you going to prove that everyone knows you have three accounts or are you ready to admit defeat on this one?</blockquote> I already have. Anyone can see I have been using the same name. It's only you who's too stupid to realize.
I'm going to continue the convo further down as there's no more room on this threaed.
<blockquote>I'm referring to the Islamic Sharia law that has everything to do with the quran</blockquote>
Again, killing gays is not mentioned in the Quran, so it really has nothing to do with Islam.
<blockquote>Where is it popular? Which country and which state? as you refuse to provide any evidence</blockquote>
The state of the USA, evangelicals all follow the Old Testament.
<blockquote>Then provide us all with the "scholarly" and "primary sources" that contradicts them and proves them wrong</blockquote>
Burden of proof's on you bud.
<blockquote>Sharia law is Islam's legal system. It is derived from both the Koran, Islam's central text, and fatwas - the rulings of Islamic scholars. Sharia literally means "the clear, well-trodden path to water</blockquote>
You're taking things out of context. Sharia is not a state's penal code. Sharia Courts are separate and usually involve religious issues involving divorce, property, visitation rights of children, wills and inheritances. Sharia involves guidance in religious worship and guidance in worldly matters.
<blockquote>Prove to me that was the brightest and the furthest his light was capable of shining</blockquote>Again, what do you mean by "further"? Do you mean brither? Or doy ou mean the pillar of fire thing?
<blcokquote>Show me where I said that was not the fullest extent of his light, I'll wait.</blockquote>Saying you don't believe it's the fullest extent is the same as saying it's not.
<blcokquote>So everyone on this forum knows you have three accounts?</blockquote>Yes because everyone can clearly see I have been using the same name.
<blockquote>Prove to me that he extended his light to its maximum capability in that scene</blockquote>
What do you mean extend? You mean shine brighter? If he did it would probably blind everyone permanently. Theoden still wouldn't be able to see it.
<blockquote>I NEVER CLAIMED HE COULD EXTEND IT FURTHER!!! THAT IS NOT MY PREMISE!!!</blockquote>
Don't play stupid, it clearly is. But if you're backpeddling already, then what is your premise?
<blockquote>Because you are inflating your own opinion</blockquote>
How am I inflating my own opinon? Everyone knows I'm the same guy.
<blockquote>You still haven't proven that he isn't capable of extending the light any further,</blockquote>
The proof is in those scenes. Anyway, even if he could, then Theoden still couldn't see it. Besides, you still haven't proven that he <i>can</i> extend it further. You're the one who made the first claim. The burden of proof is on whoever makes the claim first. Anyway, I'm still not sure what your argument is. When you say "extend" do you mean make the light brighter? Because that wouldn't really do anything. If I live in Colorado and someone shines a bright light in New Mexico I still wouldn't be able to see it. Do you mean for Gandalf to do what Minas Morgul did and launch a pillar of fire into the air? Gandalf only has his staff and I doubt it's capable of doing that. And even then, the pillar of fire from Minas Morgul was only extending a few hundred meters into the air. Theoden still couldn't see it. You lose.
<blockquote>
spout off the same nonsense three times and make it seem like 3 different people believe it.</blockquote>
WHy is that cowardly?
"From a tall building on a clear day, you can see mountains as far away as about 100 miles."

<blockquote>No it isn't you nitwit</blockquote>
Yet it is witnit. I said, as evidenced by the film, it would be the maximum distance. You said that it's not the maximum distance in the form of a question. "How do you know it's the maxiumum" <--- implying that it's not. This isn't even logic 101, this is kindergarten logic. And you're failing at it.
<blockquote>all I did was ask you to back up yours which you have failed to do.</blockquote>
I never made any "claim." I merely described what happens in the movie.
<blockquote>Yes if there was a sign then there'd be a reason to believe that it's even but there isn't, all you see is the jar.</blockquote>
Except in the scenario the guy already put a sign on the jar saying the total number. This man was Peter Jackson.
<blockquote>You are a coward for having multiple accounts.</blockquote>
Why is that being a coward?
<blockquote>It has "everything" to do with the quran and the hadith.</blockquote>
It has nothing to do with the Quran, because it's not mentioned in the Quran. Dingus.
<blockquote>You have provided no evidence except an old passage that is not enforced or applied by the christians and their laws today anywhere.</blockquote>
You have not provided any proof of this. It is a direct passage taken from the Bible and is very popular.
<blcokquote>No citing, no proof, no evidence, and no facts, whereas I provided them all.</blockquote>
No you didn't, you just went on wikipedia and claimed it was proof. Wikipedia can be edited by anyone, not to mention most of it was wrong. None of that was scholarly or primary sources.
<blockquote>Islam classically draws no distinction between
religious, and secular life. Hence Sharia covers not only religious rituals, but many aspects of
day-to-day life, politics, economics, banking, business or contract law, and social issues.</blockquote>
You just answered your own question. Sharia Law is not the "law of the land," Sharia courts are a seperate system that mainly deal with divorce, property, visitation rights of children, wills and inheritances. It is not a legal system but a guidance for a way of life. You are misinterpreting it.
