Senior Saudi Cleric Al-Fawzan: The Sun Revolves around the Earth
We have all been taught at school that the Earth revolves around the sun, but, according to a senior Saudi cleric, we’ve been misled.

In fact, Saleh Al-Fawzan, a member of the Saudi Council of Senior Scholars, recently claimed in a televised interview that not only does the Earth not revolve around the sun, the opposite is true.

Al-Fawzan’s proof for his claim that the sun revolved around the Earth is none other than the Koran. The interview aired on Saudi Channel 1 and was translated by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).

In the interview, the host asks Al-Fawzan, “Allah says in a Koranic verse: ‘And the sun runs towards its stopping point. That is the determination of the All-Powerful, the All-Knowing.’ Does the sun revolve around the earth?”

Saleh Al-Fawzan replies by saying, “There is no doubt about it. The Koran says: ‘The sun runs…’ Nevertheless, they say that the sun stands in place and the Earth moves. This contradicts the Koran.”

“Ignoring the Koran and adopting modern theories is not something a Muslim can do. A Muslim must follow the Koran,” he adds.

In another recent science-related claim by Muslims, an Iranian cleric declared that famed Jewish scientist Albert Einstein was not Jewish at all.

In fact, said Ayatolla Mahadavi Kani, Einstein was a Shiite Muslim who converted to Islam and got the idea for his Theory of Relativity from Islam.

Success attained at the expense of honesty is worse than the most bitter failure. People who disregard this principle befriend dishonesty while trying to achieve their goals. Sadly enough, some modern Islamic scholars and commentators derive their power from dishonesty and fabricate pseudo-miracles from the Qur’an to fool and mislead people. In order to win the favor of Muslim crowds who are programmed to believe in the supposed miraculous content and nature of the Islamic scripture and thus gain some material benefits, these kinds of scholars and writers with no fear or hesitation pervert their own scripture through misinterpretation. Their misinterpretation mostly stems from the ignorance of the original context of a verse and its isolation from other thematically associated verses. In a few cases, the peculiarities of Arabic grammar are also ignored and concealed so that people who have no knowledge of Arabic language can be easily convinced of the truth of a miracle claim.

While trying to stigmatize the Jews of Arabia by designating them as treacherous and unreliable people, Muhammad chose to accuse them of distorting the scripture through misinterpretation (Surah 2:75, Surah 3:78). Interestingly, today’s modern Islamic propagandists and writers do the very same thing with their own scripture: they read and understand the Qur’an, but distort its meaning to invent pseudo-miracles for the sake of Islam and some other personal interests. In any case, they disregard honesty and serve the father of lies (John 8:44).

It's just sad to me that Saudi is the country the us/canada, and uk seem to love cutting deals with and letting in to buy up all our industries and even utilities.

WHY?
The Devil tries to convince everyone he doesn't exist.
The state tries to convince everyone they cannot resist.
Do not go quietly into the good night. Rage Rage against the dying light!
