Islam's first 20 years of existence was marked by Mohamed's thirst for vengeance against those in Mecca who rejected him and tried to kill him.

With only a small band numbering around 1000 he plundered the caravans leaving Mecca, ordered his rivals assassinated, forced an entire village of Jews into exile for the sole purpose of stealing their property to provide an economic base for his expansion and murdered over 700 Jewish males in another oasis village, and married a 9 year old girl.

Theft, murder, pedophilia. Islam is a fraud.

Well religions can change and evolve. I agree with people who think that Islam could benefit from a greater degree of evolution than other religions. But I won't agree with anyone who thinks there is no hope for Muslims to live in a free, tolerant and prosperous way -- I'll never be that pessimistic.
