In Muhammad's time there were quite a few sects that denied Jesus was God. He would have been familiar with the concept before he started getting revelations.

It's interesting to note that Muhammad also taught that a lot of other historical figures were prophets too, e.g. Alexander the Great.

> e.g. Alexander the Great.

Citation needed. This is a fallacy that has been spread unfortunately.

I have come across that page before. Unfortunately it is full of false information (I researched it). For instance, the Alexander romance incidents that match the Quran were actually copied from the Quran, not the other way around.

Furthermore, note that even what is mentioned on that page is speculation from certain Islamic scholars. There is absolutely no authentic Hadith (or even non-authentic as far as I know) that mentions Alexander by name. All that is mentioned in the Quran is the "Two-Horned One", which could be Cyrus as mentioned on the wikipedia page, or it could be someone else completely.

One last point, the person in question here was never declared to be a prophet in the Quran as you claimed, but just a righteous king and person.

If it's wrong then please contribute to it and fix it. Your knowledge of this subject should be shared.

Online society's attitude to Wikipedia seems to have settled into two camps; those who refer to it as an authority and those whose avoid it due to negative experiences with inaccuracies or politics.

I'm trying to move from the second group to a third; patch-up articles for the benefit of other people.

I have had mostly good experiences with Wikipedia regarding technical subjects. I think this was the first topic I came across that really stuck in my mind where Wikipedia was conspicuously wrong (which I affirmed even more after doing some research).

I will take your advice into consideration and attempt to amend that page. I don't know what the monitoring procedures are on wikipedia, and if they will allow such changes to persist.

The Guerilla Skepticism on Wikipedia people may be of assistance in following the rules and making sure your edits are sufficiently scientifically skeptical. http://guerrillaskepticismonwikipedia.blogspot.com/

No, the link you provided tells you what Nicaea was about. It standardised the method for calculating Easter and condemned Arianism. (Arianism denied the trinity, not Jesus's divinity.)

It'd be really interesting to read how your meetings go.

e.g. what MS was interested in, what did MS rule out because of other concerns, how did MS built upon/refined the ideas, etc.

Basically, I talked with Albert Shum the Director of UX of Windows Phone that is now in charge of Windows and Xbox too. He told me that he has been working on the Desktop but most importantly, at a unification of the three designs (W, WP, X) and that I would be great in the new central design team as a problem solver.

Not really. All it means is that Nokia has to convince Android developers to upload their apps to the Nokia store too.

You don't even need to make it at home. I used to just but all my stuff on my way into work on Monday and store it in my office. Most of the stuff we put in sandwiches (bread, butter, cheese, cured meats, pickles, condiments) will last a week or more in an air-conditioned office. Just store it in an air-tight container and give it the smell test before you eat it.

My strategy is to install Columns UI (http://yuo.be/columns.php) and ignore the power options to the best of my ability. So far it's working.

I tried this, but it was never quite great. I'm very happy with Clementine which is cross-platform for Windows, Mac and Linux.

If I had to guess I would say it's intending to fill the niche of the family's second car. Something for Dad to drive to work in while Mum drives the kids around in the main car. The person who's so poor that they can only afford a $2,000 car probably can't afford to make an investment that will take 3 years to pay off.

You make an interesting point. I was erroneously thinking about the Elio as an third car along with the usual two daily drivers for both parents.

>Outlook interface is the worst.

I haven't had an issue with it, and I've been using Outlook.com pretty much since it came out. Before then I was using the Windows Live Mail desktop client and before then I was using Gmail.

It's all subjective, frontend stuff. But it's ugly. Really ugly. The font, the color scheme, default all effing ugly.

A bug I encounter is when I click on an unread email, and if I then refresh the page the email is still mark unread, unless I read that email and hover to another email. Th

Weird, I have never encountered this bug and I have been on outlook.com since the beta days. Perhaps, you temporarily had bad connectivity?

Also, I will have to disagree on the design part. I find outlook.com refreshing. For me, that's just about right. Minimal, if any, bells and whistles.

The thing that made my day when I saw someone using it was him actually editing the placeholder in the search bar (by bug). It didn't use the placeholder attribute, just some autoselect. This is something that reeks of bad design overall.

disclaimer I have not used outlook and my opinion is based on this one thing and some other quick looks over the shoulder.

He probably directed the writing of the article but I doubt he actually sat down and wrote it with his own hand.

I like it too. The proportions look a lot nicer and so does the colour.

The only grounds I can see for criticising it is that it doesn't follow the 'flat design' aesthetic, but I don't think that's a problem. Plenty of logos don't.
