[quote]Dear Oosman
You say, "If your are a practicing Muslim, and you do your daily 5 salat, then you prostrate before building made of bricks and stone. Prostrating before a creation does not mean you are doing shirk! Especially when Allah Himself asked us to do it, so there is no confusion or harm in prostrating before Allah's creation"
If , as you say, there is no confusion or harm in prostrating before Allah's creation then what was wrong with the pre-Islamc Arabs that they were called 'Mushrikeen' fit only for the hell.  Satan's point was that Allah was negating his integrity of 'Touheed' when He ordered angels to bow before a 'Non-Allah' who's progeny was going to create 'fassaad' on earth despite having been made of that very earth.
Besides, don't you yourself feel arrogant and self-righteous when you consider yourself a believer and be presunptuous of being favourite of Allah like the Jews (see verse 2.63 you quoted heretofore).  In fact votaries of almost all religions think so.  Only those who call themselves Muslims are being accused of creating 'Fassad-fil-arz' as they have the lowest of the thresfold of tolerance being overly self-righteous and bigotted.[/quote]
