Honor Killing?

An honor killing is the homicide of a member of a family by other members, due to the perpetrators' belief that the victim has brought shame or dishonor upon the family, or has violated the principles of a community or a religion, usually for reasons such as refusing to enter an arranged marriage, being in a relationship that is disapproved by their family, having sex outside marriage, becoming the victim of rape, dressing in ways which are deemed inappropriate, or engaging in homosexual relations.

Honor Killing? I don't see any honor in killing a woman in cold blood.

Bad Question? Worst Answer.

First, I don’t see anything err… satisfying with Rainwater Pipe’s argument (Is this an argument?) Just a bunch of words declaring what he thinks about his god, yet he was trying to say something here. 

It seems he does not like the question “If God created the Universe, who created God?” For Rainwater Pipe, it is incorrect. According to him, “That is a wrong question. The meaning of the word creature simply means created entities. The universe is created, therefore all animals and plants are a product of a creation too. They are all creatures.”

Uhhh… what the hell did I just read?

Is Lapu-Lapu a Muslim?

Is Lapu-Lapu a Muslim?

So, is Lapu-Lapu a Muslim?

That's what most Balik-Islam would like you to believe and as "proof" they would even tell you the tale of the 10 Bornean Datus of Borneo.

Fast Fact: The 10 Datu story is a fiction. The story was found in the Maragtas Code, which sadly the so-called code was not an actual ancient code but something that a certain Pedro Monteclaro. wrtote in 1907.

So, that's a water cooler lowdown. The Filipinos were not a part of the Sultanate of Borneo. The Islamic Sultanate of Brunei extended its rule over parts of Mindanao only by the late 15th century.

The Pacific islanders... those people from Palau, Fiji, New Zealand, Samoa, Marianas and Hawaii were mostly descendants from navigators from the Philippine Island. They don't have any hint of Islamic culture.

There are also some other things we should consider. First, Lapu-Lapu was not a Muslim. Lapulapu is part of the Pintados Tribe, of the Visayan Thalassocracy. When we say Pintados, it means that members of this tribe are sporting tattoos; something that the Islamists disdain. The Cebuanos, and in extent, the people of Mactan were animists, and they worship Laon, or the Visayan High God, and other minor gods like Alunsina, Sidapa and others. Also, the Visayans were well noted for their common custom of penile piercings (tugbuk or sakra). These are considered taboo on Islamic belief.(See: http://www.islamweb.net/en/article/138057/tattoos-in-islam)

Antonio Pigafetta, an Italian Historian, who recorded Magellan's encounter with the Cebuanos, explicitly described the people of Panay as tattooed. He also said, "We set up the cross there for those people were heathen. Had they been Moros, we would have erected a column there as a token of greater hardness, for the Moros are much harder to convert than the heathen.

— Antonio Pigafetta, Primo viaggio intorno al mondo, c. 1525

Let us also recall that King Humabon and Queen Juana of Cebu gave Magellan a warm reception and embraced Christianity as well. They even accepted the Santo Nino given to Queen Juana.
