An example is when the British fought the Indians in the 18th century, they claimed the people there, in the North West Frontier were giants. They were undoubtedly taller than the British. The British people were shorter in the 18th century than they are now because of the wealth and hence the food that is available to them. Another example is the Japanese. The modern Japanese enjoy American junk food and this has resulted in these people growing in height. Your data is useless as we need the evidence to compare people who are 90 feet tall, so if you don't have that evidence then the likelihood IS that people are decreasing in height. As a last point I hope you are not expecting people to decrease in size to a point where there will be people 1 - 1 1/2 foot tall walking around the earth. The hadiths you've posted tells me how amazing the Prophet (SalAllahu Alayhi Wa Sallam) really was, he was given knowledge and wisdom that is truly amazing. I'm really looking forward to seeing 90 feet tall Prophet Adam (Alayhi Salaam) on Judgement Day Insha'Allah. |

Hi TG, I am sorry your thread is so derailed but I am having such fun reading this. I loved the smurfs, and now I am picturing little Roman smurfs on horseback fighting battles. Edited by Caringheart - 01 February 2013 at 10:02am |

Salaam Alaikum, Abu Loren. Nowhere does the Bible say that the Garden of Eden was located in Heaven. It also doesn't instruct believers to insult non-Christians. As a "former Christian", you should know these things.
If Muhammad said it had decreased in size, maybe he would have been right. But he didn't say that. He said that humanity had been decreasing in size continuously from the creation of Adam to his time.
Why do you need to find someone 90 feet tall to disprove what Muhammad said? He didn't say that people are smaller than Adam was. He said that from the time of Adam to the 7th century, they had been continuously decreasing in size. That statement is quite simply not true. People's heights had gone up and down between the time of Adam's creation and the 7th century AD, due to a variety of factors. However, they have not been decreasing continuously. My "useless data" indicates that at least for several centuries between the creation of Adam and the 7th century, the height of human beings at time rose and at other times decreased. This shows that people have not been continuously been getting smaller until the 7th century.
Of course not. I'm not the one who claims they have been continuously decreasing in size, and I don't believe the person who made that claim was a prophet.
He was an intelligent man and he sincerely believed he was serving and following God. However, some of the things he said were clearly false. This is one of them.
Does your faith allow you to assume you will enter Heaven? However, if you really want to get to Paradise and see Adam and Moses and others of God's followers, you need to put your faith in Christ. Edited by TG12345 - 01 February 2013 at 3:19pm |

This is the best topic I've read in weeks!
I was too old for the Smurfs myself but the kids have a DVD of 'Night at the Museum' (1 or 2, i forget which). It features some Roman soldiers that are about 6 inches high. TG - I love the diminishing font size. |

God has the right to remain silent. For His advocates, however, each resigned shrug is a missed opportunity to win new converts.
