Moe's Woes: Liars

Okay I had a little fun at Moe's expense with the whole hippie thing. But Moe has some pretty insightful stuff at times. I particularly liked this post Moe's Woes: Liars which deal with how Islam feels about lies and deception. Moe cites from their own Koran (Quran Qu'ran whatever...)

Bukhari:V7B67N427 “The Prophet said, ‘If I take an oath and later find something else better than that, then I do what is better and expiate my oath.’”

Qur’an 9:3 “Allah and His Messenger dissolve obligations.”

Qur’an 66:1 “Allah has already sanctioned for you the dissolution of your vows.”

Bukhari:V4B52N268 “Allah’s Apostle said, ‘War is deceit.’”

Qur’an 4:142 “Surely the hypocrites strive to deceive Allah. He shall retaliate by deceiving them.”

Bukhari:V7B71N661 “Magic was worked on Allah’s Apostle and he was bewitched so that he began to imagine doing things which in fact, he had not done.”

Bukhari:V6B60N8 “Umar said, ‘Our best Qur’an reciter is Ubai. And in spite of this, we leave out some of his statements because Allah’s Apostle himself said, “Whatever verse or revelation We abrogate or cause to be forgotten We bring a better one.”

Interesting. How can you have a religion of Peace built on lies? Allah can never claim to be Truth and advocate lying. You know the Bible tells us who is the Father of lies. Jesus said;

John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

Murdering liars, do we know of any religious group that fit that description?
