    Animals have free will, it can be a part of learning, and its definitely key to survival.

    500 years ago science believed that the Earth was the center of the Universe. Now its false. So as you can see, science changes. We only accept logical science (everything besides evolution of humans).

    i think you will agree that source is bias.

    Animals are not as smart as us, religion comes from communication and that is something animals cannot do, therefore they have no religion.

    Are all babys muslim by default?

    Well look at it this way, God has blessed you with the ability to think etc. yet you defy Him. Sad if you think abou it.

    The Prophet Muhammad PBUH said " No babe is born but as a Muslim . It is his parents who make him Jew or Christian or as
    Polytheist. " ( Sahih Muslim, Book 033, number 6426 )

    In Surat Al-A'raaf, Verses 172-173; Allah explained that when He
    created Adam, He caused all of Adam's descendants to come into
    existence and took a pledge from them saying, Am I not the Lord? To
    they all replied, " Yes, we testify to it".

    Sahih Muslim, Book 033, number 6426 may be correct in stating that a child does not chose his faith, yet i am now an adult now and I chose for myself.

    I have the ability to think, it is what makes belief possible. Without non believers belief is nothing. You need a contrast to define something.

    Its too bad God didn't bless us with a way to communicate with him or any undeniable proof of his existence.

    The only things we have are abstract.

    Actually a baby who died goes to Heaven in Islam. No matter who their parents were.

    don't fool yourself ahmed, communication is not possible and if it is then it isn't validated.

    Jews at the time of Moses(AS) and Jesus(AS) go to Heaven. Babies of any parents that died go to Heaven too.

    "don't fool yourself ahmed, communication is not possible and if it is then it isn't validated."

    The Quran and praying is the connection. When you read the Qur'an, God speaks to you. When you pray, you speak to God.

    About the baby thing, Steve obviously any baby would go to Heavan if they die. They have done nothing wrong in their life. They aren't old enough to commit an type of sin. Clearly, this applies to Christains and Jews too (afterall all babies no matter the religon are the same).
    About the communication thing. Why is it always perceived that a huge miracle has to happen inorder for one to believe in God? Thats ridiculous! You should have a strong enough faith to believe in him regardless. Not only that but, maybe if you did have enough faith in God then you will understand all the miracles and amazing events that he has already showed us. If you read the Quran you will see how many miracles God has provided us with. A perfect example is when the moon split. People at the time of the Prophet wanted proof that God existed so God made the moon split right before there eyes as proof , now a days scientists have discovered a line (indents and stuff) that goes all across the middle of the moon from where it split.
    I'd also like to add that Ahmed is right when he says Quran and Prayer are perfect ways to communicate with God. In fact the Arabic word for Prayer is Salah which is derived from the word "silah" which means communication. So Salah is a means of communicating to God hence its name. I consider Salah to be a two way communication type of thing, you can talk to God (you know as him for things) and he either replies to your request by providing you with what you want or he can choose not to. Quran on the other hand, is a one way type of communication. Its only God speaking to us, telling and teaching us what to do.

    I see no contradiction. That baby didn't choose to be Christian or Jewish or w/e. A baby has no control over its life. Agree?

    Also read Gaz's post she makes good points.
