Its apparently not all types of alcohol. The koran names the drinks of alcohol and what their made from, as being banned (its litteral for each exemption). Alcohol made from such and such = banned.
But the prophet never "thought" of alcohol made from Honey. Muslims are allowed to drink "mead" (like the old beer's vikings drank, made on honey), because its not named anywhere that they cant drink it.
Also alot of stuff dont make sense today in the Koran. They are not allowed to eat "pig" because its filthy. Back in old days, they had problems with parasites in pigs, so not eating pig could keep you from getting infected. So the koran says dont eat pig (in the old days, to keep people free from parasites). Today you can buy bacon in the super markets, and its without parasites, and there are no issues with eating it.
Muslims are missing out man, Bacon is amasing. |
Well actually anything that intoxicates so much that you loose all senses is banned. So that's why tea and coffee are not there since not all that intoxicating. And pig along with others is basically a prohibition based on rules set for us. There is a saying that this world is like a prison for Muslims. They have a set of rules and they have to follow them. I have heard that donkey actually tastes better than most meats but we're not allowed that as well. Intoxication is prohibited so any drug that does this is out of the question its just alcohol is the most common thing that intoxicates you that much.
And regarding games nudity is an issue but I don't think gamer Muslims care but religious symbolism is no problem I have never heard of that being a problem at all
Just a guy who doesn't want to be bored. Also
