It was also sealed for them because it was revealed in Arabic.

as much as I like to poke fun, I will always keep an open mind. Part of that is at least taking the time to read the book and hopefully there will be something learned from the experience. I read the bible twice but it really didn't do much for me.....maybe this will be different. I also read what is supposed to be an english translation of the Gita...didn't have any awe-inspiring revelation.........would love to browse the Mahabharata tho...........just to cross reference Tsoukalos' alien references
AdamB wrote:Bizzare not different from you...it's just that some ppl have a mindset that ONLY the Qur'an is from GOD or can be inspiring to them. If it didn't happen, then try something else...!!!

That's right, the Qur'aan has superseded the Bible. Well the laws from the Gospel of Jesus, Psalms of david, Torah of Moses, and the known revelations from GOD, not the books that they pick and choose to put in the "Bible", some were not divinely inspired. No where in the bible does it say that those books were to be compiled together.

Pope Benedict XVI has sent his first much-anticipated Twitter message using his personal account.
Alan Johnston BBC News, Rome
The Pope was shown pressing a button on an iPad tablet at the Vatican. The message read: "Dear friends, I am pleased to get in touch with you through Twitter. Thank you for your generous response. I bless all of you from my heart."
A spokesman said earlier the pontiff would "reach out to everyone" with accounts in eight languages. After his introductory tweet on Wednesday, Benedict posted two follow-up messages.
This venture into the Twittersphere is meant to reflect the Vatican's commitment to being part of the debate in cyberspace.
People are being asked to put questions to the Pope. And among those already posted, some are funny, and many others crude or silly. But some are sincere.
As one Vatican insider put: "The Pope's job description is to spread the word, and Twitter is a good way of doing that." And being limited to the use of just 140 characters should not be too much of a hindrance. The Christian message has often been at its most powerful when it's been at its most succinct. Think of the Ten Commandments; "Thou shalt not kill" - just 16 characters.
They focused on promoting the Church's recently launched Year of Faith - an initiative intended to re-energise Catholicism. "How can we celebrate the Year of Faith better in our daily lives?" the pontiff asked. And he answered: "By speaking with Jesus in prayer, listening to what he tells you in the Gospel and looking for him in those in need." Benedict's English account already has more than 700,000 followers and is growing fast.
So far, the Pope's accounts @pontifex - which mean "pontiff" or "builder of bridges" - are only following each other. Last year, the Pope sent his first tweet from a Vatican account to launch the Holy See's news information portal.
The leader of the world's 1.2 billion or so Roman Catholics is expected to sign off, rather than write, each individual tweet himself. The Pope's tweets are also expected to highlight messages from his weekly general audience, Sunday blessings and homilies on key Church holidays as well as papal reaction to world events.
The Vatican has long shown interest in using the latest communications technologies to spread the faith with the inventor of radio, Guglielmo Marconi, setting up Vatican Radio in 1931.
Vatican media advisor Greg Burke explains what the Pope's Twitter handle means
The Catholic Church also already uses several social media platforms, including text messages and YouTube, to communicate with young people. Papal aides say the pontiff himself still prefers to communicate in longhand rather than using a computer keyboard.
Pope Benedict's six-year papacy has been bedevilled by poor communications. Embarrassing clarifications had to be issued over such thorny issues as his 2005 speech about Islam and violence, and his stance on condoms and HIV.

from your question you seem to think death is something horrible and that you should try every thing under the sun to prevent it,
thats not how it is,
islam teaches us every soul was created for the afterlife, to get there there is the test of this life, death is the transition from this life to the other,
based on how you did in this test , decides where you go in the other life, there are 2 places,
the requirements are different for different people
also men were all created with free will, to be able to do whatever they want
children who die before a certain age of responsibility go one place

1 CORINTHIANS 10
1 Now I want you to know, * brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud, all passed through the sea,
2 and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea.
3 They all ate the same spiritual food,
4 and all drank the same spiritual drink. For they drank from a spiritual rock that followed them, and that rock was Christ.
5 But God was not pleased with most of them, for they were struck down in the wilderness.
6 Now these things became examples for us, so that we will not desire evil things as they did.
7 Don’t become idolaters as some of them were; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and got up to play.2 3
8 Let us not commit sexual immorality as some of them did,4 and in a single day 23,000 people fell dead.
9 Let us not test Christ as some of them did5 and were destroyed by snakes.
10 Nor should we complain as some of them did,6 and were killed by the destroyer.7
11 Now these things happened to them as examples, and they were written as a warning to us, on whom the ends of the ages have come.
12 So, whoever thinks he stands must be careful not to fall.
13 No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to humanity. God is faithful, and He will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation He will also provide a way of escape so that you are able to bear it.
14 Therefore, my dear friends, flee from idolatry.
