Qur'an 20090308

In the name of Allah, most Gracious, most Merciful.

35. If their spurning is hard on your mind, yet if you were able to seek a tunnel in the ground, or a ladder to the skies, and bring them a Sign... If it were Allah's Will, God could gather them together unto true guidance. So be not you amongst those who are swayed by ignorance!

36. Those who listen, be sure, will accept. As to the dead, Allah will raise them up: then will they be returned unto God.

37. They say, "Why is not a Sign sent down to him from his Lord?" Say, "Allah has certainly Power to send down a Sign but most of them understand not."

38. There is not an animal on the earth, nor a bird on its wings, but communes like you. Nothing have We omitted from the Book, and they shall be gathered to their Lord in the end.

The Cattle 6:35-38
----------------------------------------------------------

Allah has certainly Power to send down a Sign but most of them understand not.

It is not the Plan of Allah to save everybody. Why bother saving the unfaithful, the hypocrites, the murderers, the cruel and oppressive power-mongers, the roving plunderers, the greedy bankers? Why bother saving the whining skeptics, who constantly bitch about the existence of God? Why bother?

Let them bitch and whine as they toss around naked in a giant sauté pan in the next life. Now, that's entertainment.
