When you look at their prophet anyone who follows his teachings is going to have some form of mental illness...
Some interesting facts from a New Book...
“The Mental Illness of the Prophet Muhammed”
Exerts:
....the five oldest and most trusted ‘Islamic sources’ do not portray Muhammad a superior being or any kind Godly mercy for mankind. The sources reveal that he was a thief, a liar, an assassin, a pedophile, a shameless womanizer, a promiscuous husband, a rapist, a mass-murderer, a desert pirate, a warmonger, a spineless coward and a calculating and ruthless tyrant. It is certainly not the character profile of the founder of a true religion.
....given some of Muhammad’s well-known documented behaviors, it is certain that he had a conflict-ridden psychological dependence on others..... He equated love with weakness and feared intimacy...... He inflicted pain and abuse on others as his second nature.....
He was unable to give his followers a reason to live, so he gave them enough reasons to die – die in Allah’s name to enter paradise...... He could not convince the Arabs to choose his religion based upon its merits, so he threatened them with damnation....... The religion he preached was more about fantasy, less about proof.
A person who, among other atrocities, orders, and then watches, the beheading of 800 innocent people, and beds the wife of a man whom he had tortured to death on the same night cannot be considered psychologically normal..... Common sense alone tells us that a 51-year-old man, who marries a 6-year-old girl, is abnormal..... The notion that a godly revelation would focus on the sexual desires of a lecherous man is really disgusting.
Muhammad had shown all the symptoms of his lunacy and his prophetic claim was based on the quicksand of grand delusion.... But the irony is that the entire religion of Islam is based on the truth claim of such a man, who could easily swing back and forth between the two extremes – reality and fantasy.
Religion was just a cause for Muhammad. He actually worshipped his own image – not God..... He had created Allah in his own image and attributed to that God the qualities of his own self...... Allah was a plastic entity that Muhammad shaped to meet his needs.....
That is why Allah seems a multidimensional entity in the Qur’an, an obedient servant that Muhammad used on all occasions, from managing the harem affairs of his wives to swearing to punish mercilessly whosoever disagrees with His beloved messenger.
No religion in the world has ever destroyed family ties as Muhammad has done in Islam.
All the other stuff was created in Damascus a long time after the man's death.
Could not the same be said of Christianity? After all Hell is a part of Christian cosmology and theolgoy too.
