Philippine Atheists

I received this enterprising version of the Nigerian Scam a few days ago. If there’s a market, there’s a product. This one recognizes the assumption that by using religion, one can assume an air of superior morality, and presumably, sound more credible. Morality through religion is a fallacy perpetrated by the religionists.

Asalaam Aleyikum,

May Allah the most grateful and the most merciful be with you, I write this letter with most concern to our Muslim values and the teachings of Prophet Mohammed (May peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to uplift and defend our religion at all times. I am motivated to write this letter to you after much consideration and with total submission to the will of Allah the most grateful and most merciful.

I am Hajia Kudirat Kargo the wife of Dr Abdul Kargo who was the patron of Muslim Association of Britain (MAB) till he became ill in 1994; he died of cancer in 13th Feb 2005. Until his death we are a devoted Muslim family with the fear of Allah in every thing we do knowing that our reward is not on earth but with Allah. Our marriage was not blessed with any child despite our 30 years of marriage. I have only my husband’s brothers who cowardly became Christian converts because of the pressure on Muslims after July 2005 bombings in U.K.

They have been brain washed to abandon Muslim faith and the teaching of Islam. I have been battling with the same cancer that killed my husband for all these years. Recently my doctor told me that I have to be strong in spirit, I knew probably I am approaching my end, but I am happy that I have lived an exemplary life worthy of emulation, even if I die today I know I will be with Allah. My only worry is the money (Fifteen Million, five Hundred Thousand Dollars) my husband deposited in a Bank Vault before his death. I have been deliberating over this issue within my self on what will happen on event of my death or if I become incapacitated as i am ill and hospitalised now.

“Will I disclose this information to my husband’s brothers who are now Christian Converts”? NO!! After much deliberation I came to the final decision to use this money for the propagating of Islam and I have chosen you for this course . I want you to use this money for the building of Islamic schools, Mosques and helping of Muslim widows and children. Helping those who have no body to fed for them and pursuing the course of Islam in your entire region. Please you should not divert this money from the purpose it is meant for. I would want you to signify your interest for this course so that I will give you all details and documents that will enable you claim the fund from the Bank . You shall act on my behalf as the general overseer and the next of kin to the fund. Meanwhile i am now in Burkina Faso where my late husband owns a mansion and also where the Bank is situated.

You must respond urgently to this mail so as to make alternative arrangement, would you be capable to handle the course of Allah. Please do contact me back immediately as i am no longer strong and i will hand over all the process to my account manager in the Bank who will direct you on how and what to do in order to have this fund in your possession as I am always with my husband brothers and I wouldn’t want them to know anything about this arrangement please.
May Allah be with you!
Hajia Kudirat Kargo.

Yes, may Allah be with you, sucker!

IDEOLOGIES are not bad in themselves. They are often heroic and ambitious attempts to make a kind of worldview of things, even explaining them “scientifically” and extensively. In a way, they are an unavoidable stage in man’s effort to develop.

Going beyond the merely philosophical and theoretical, ideologies enter into the practical world of action, with programs, strategies and a network of agencies to carry out their ends. They convert doctrine into action.

As such, they can be useful. They can serve legitimate purposes. They can do a lot of good. Today, you cannot be unaware of them, as they are a BIG part of our lives, influencing us in most ways. We need to be wary. Continue Reading »

Dear Lord ( God/Yahweh/Buddha/Bob/Nobody):

We beseech You, O merciful One, to bring comfort to those who suffer today for whatever reason You, Nature, or the World Bank has deemed appropriate. We realize, O heavenly Father, that You cannot cure all the sick at once – that would surely empty out the hospitals the good nuns have established in Your name. And we accept that You, Omniscient One, cannot eliminate all the evil in the world, for that would surely put Thee out of a job.
