I have done much reading and learning about Islam as well as doing much questioning about the subject. Here are some puzzling questions about Islam as well as some answers.
1) What is Islam? Islam is a warrior cult begun by a cult leader named Mohammed.
2) If Islam is a cult, how did it become so big? Mohammed lived in what is now Saudi Arabia a land that was populated by tribes. There was no law each tribe made up its own rules. Mohammed gathered a band of fighters around him and started making war against the other tribes. He could pick the weakest tribes since Mohammed was the one who chose when to fight. When he won a battle with another tribe he would give the losing tribe an ultimatum --convert to Islam or be killed. When they converted to Islam they instantly grew Mohammed's army and they were allowed to go on the lucrative raiding parties. When Mohammed defeated all of the Arabian tribes, he formed a very large army that was comparable to the armies of neighboring nations. He then began to wage war against other nations.
3.) Why are there so many Muslims in the world? There are over a billion Muslims in the world today because the Muslims conquered many nations using the convert or die strategy. They formed an empire.
4) What is jihad? Jihad is any war or provocation designed to subjugate non Muslims. Jihad is not about a private inner struggle with the inner self as Muslims sometimes say. That is a lie to throw off non Muslims.
5)What is the ultimate goal of Islam? To kill or force all non Muslims to convert to Islam.
6)Is it true that the Muslims had a great civilization? They conquered the ancient Middle Eastern countries and took over their advanced countries. These countries were rich from being on the trade routes so the Muslims became wealthy and acquired much of their knowledge.
7)Is it true that the Muslims were tolerant of other religions? Some Muslim leaders were more tolerant than others but nonMuslims had a second rate status known as the dhimmis. There is much persecution of Christians and others even today.
8)Are all Muslims jihadists? Many Muslims are peaceful but a large minority believe in jihad. Many mosques teach jihad. Western influences have had an effect in the Muslim countries but there are still mosques that urge Muslims to wage war against non Muslims.
9)Why do women wear the hijab? Women wear the hijab to show that they are Muslim women. Muslim women cannot be touched but non Muslim women who can be easily spotted because they do not wear the hijab are fair game.
10)Muslims say that the Muslims, Christians and Jews are all people of the book. The Muslims do not have the Jewish or Christian Bibles only some mentions that they twist to their beliefs.
11)Do Muslims have the same morality as Christians? No, Muslims have one set of behaviors for other Muslims and another set for non Muslims. They are not required to treat non Muslims fairly. They may deceive non Muslims.
There are a lot of things in that system that look like a mocking or defiance of gospel.
I believe it worth noting: that to look at this at an earthly level is, by definition, to fail. Only the supremacy of Christ will win, and God is not going to exercise that on the behalf of the unwilling. Atheism won’t cut it. A “Christianity” that conflates itself with mere human morality won’t cut it. Basically anything that is supported out of pride won’t cut it.
Christendom must get serious about embracing Christ personally, not just engage itself in various ritual celebrations, or it will weaken and dwindle. Christ asked whether, when He returned, He would find faith on the earth (the hint seems to be that the answer is no).
In that read he states that one should never underestimate one's enemy and that one should completely know one's enemy.
Completely knowing your Friend is even better, but there wasn’t any Messiah known to Sun Tzu.
Everyone recognizes Hitler as being the essence of evil but in this politically correct time there is a double standard. You cannot criticize Mohammed today because he is a “religious leader” of a billion believers, well as I stated he became a cult leader because he was vicious and had some luck in the beginning.
There have been mass murdering monsters throughout history—Attila the Hun, Genghis Khan, and Mohammed. I think that Mohammed should be put in the same category as those two. Mohammed had a cult which made him even more dangerous than Attila the Hun and Genghis Khan because it was Islam that has kept the murderous legacy of Mohammed alive for 1,400 years. The evil that Attila the Hun and Genghis Khan did are dead and gone but the evil of Mohammed has been a curse on humanity until the present day.

Mohammed was not the first to come up with his religion that combined aspects of the Jewish, Christian and Arab religion. He stole the idea from another preacher.
Now it seems you wish to criticize me for that.
What's up with that? I never presented myself as some expert.
You ever hear the saying, " Don't kill the messenger"?
So sorry I troubled you.
we agree—and sadly I fear Islam will continue to fulfill the Blessing given in Genesis until the Messiah comes.
I think there might have been some misunderstanding. I was not criticizing you, I merely added this note that I have read that Mohammed imitated another preacher at the time who tried to combine the three religions. Thank you for your posting. I liked your post and the artwork. Peace.
They say that a picture is worth a thousand words—well here is a video that is worth a million words! It is a you tube video of a Palestinian cleric delivering a sermon, complete with a large knife in hand!
He is gesturing wildly and waving the knife as if he is stabbing someone. There are English subtitles. You have to see this and save it and pass it around to people that you know. He is instructing Palestinians to gather in groups of 3 or 4 and stab Israelis. Guess what happened yesterday—a full blown intifada complete with a stabbing of an Israeli citizen.
This will open the eyes of people who are still in denial about the nature of Islam. Have you ever been in a church where the preacher holds a knife in his hand while imitating someone stabbing people? Religion of peace my foot.
Please look up:

In reply to My post #25:
That one stark sentence seemed to me (and a couple of other FReeper FRiends who shall remain anonymous) to be an admonishment for not "having my facts" in order OR some sort of criticism for not having proper understanding of the subject at hand.
Thank you for your post #29 and that clarification.
Thanks for your reply, that is jam packed with lots of useful information. I especially liked the little cartoon: if Muslims hate pork, dogs, bikinis etc. what are they doing here. Very funny and sums it up nicely.
Speaking of bikinis—look up “bikini, Dagestan”. Dagestan is a Muslim country on the Caspian Sea. The mullahs had preached sermons against women wearing bikinis. One morning a group of women showed up at a local beach. There were few people at the beach but there was a group of male wrestlers around where the women were. The women began to play volleyball by the volleyball net. One of the women stepped on a small bomb that had been hidden in the sand blowing off part of her leg.
The mullah that preached the sermon against women wearing bikinis had a group of wrestlers that used to hang out at the mosque. Likely, the wrestlers were the ones who placed the bomb in the sand.
After the bombing the government had separate beaches for men and women. Now women wear burkas to the beach.
They know how to get their way.
