5 Year Old From A Christian Family Memorizes Entire Quran
Sheikh Sharifuddin, a five year old boy from Nigeria, speaks in five languages - English, French, Italian, Swahili and Arabic - even though he is completely uneducated. This boy was born into a Christian family that later became Muslim.
At one year old he was able to recite the Quran and went on to preach in Arabic, Swahili and French without any learning.
The boy's first words - "You people repent and you will be accepted by God" were in Arabic.
He was also reported to be Hafiz Al Quran (memorized whole Quran) at the age of one and a half years and was also praying 5 times a day at that age.
Huge crowds have gathered in Nigeria to witness what many consider a miracle.

god can clearly do anything.
that should read "others of us have to journey towards..."
"God can clearly do anything"
I like that.
Wow, thats sad. The poor bastard. They must have nailed him in the cradle and brainwashed him upfront.
Pity really.
Turned a baby into a bigot.
How sad.

Skip,
Let us not forget, secularism ... is a religion too.
Complete with dogma, intolerance and high priests.
Reserve some of your pity for 10 year olds in Pacific Palisades spending 4 hours a day desensitizing themselves to death and murder while playing Satanic video games.
I think this little boy reciting the Quaran has a greater opportunity for mental and spiritual development than do they.
Well, you are certainly entitled to that opinion. I would hardly equate spiritual development though with reading the Quaran. That is the same dumbed down bullshit as the 'Old' and 'New' Testament.
That is propaganda that is meant to control the societal template, by keeping people in the divide and conquer mode.
The whole god vs. satan thing is only a tool to scare people with.
Its not even good poetry for the most part.
It came out of a time when it was thought that humans needed to be controlled like pigs in a barn.
That way they would fight, and work for the 'man'.
Quran? Bible? Propaganda?
Maybe.
However if they were truly the word of God, that is exactly what the devil would want us to think.
God v Satan is as real as Day v Night and Up v Down.
Not really denmark.
Those are abstract concepts. If it can not be measured it is not real.
That cruel old middle eastern god, who looks surprising like an old Jewish gentleman with a long flowing beard, is not the real deal.
Right and wrong, and good and evil, are in the mind of man. Not god.
For humans the reality is this. We can eat, and we can screw. The drive to survive and procreate. That is real.
The rest is made up to control people mostly in negative ways, and to get them to 'perform'. It came from a time and a place.
They knew what they were doing. They domesticated humans to control them in cities. That was the method. Scare them with the boogey man. Razzle dazzle them with Ju Ju and Mojoe.
It worked.
Its a joke.
An inside joke.
For those in the know.
"Not really denmark.
Those are abstract concepts. If it can not be measured it is not real." Skip
If what cannot be measured by whom?
Your suggestion that only that which can be measured by man is "real" completely disqualifies all that is beyond the capacity of man to understand.
'Man is the measure of all' is the ultimate in arrogant ignorance.
Only fools, the miseducated and atheists actually envision God as an old Jewish man with a long beard.
Those with God in their lives don't waste their time trying to visualize God at all. That's like trying to look at your own head without a mirror.
You see Skip, our consciousness is less than 10% of who we are. Most of what we are is beneath that surface. And that, is much more "us" than "I".
As is God.
If you don't believe in God, you have never heard my grandmother hum.

(My 5 year old daughter just came in and asked: "Daddy, is that little boy Martin Luther King when he was a kid? LOL)
if skip is looking for god he should grab the nearest mirror or climb the nearest tree. if he doesn't see him in either of those places, there's his problem right there......
some people have no problem walking to work, other people drive or catch a cab but in the end the destination is still the same.
if we can't see god in it all, we can't see god at all.
