Islam is a false religion, perpetrated by men of evil hearts. Its spread is by the sword. They believe [falsely] that Ishmael is the child of God's promise, when, in fact, Ishmael was the son the Flesh (man's doing). They claim to believe in the teachings of Jesus Christ and acknowledge that He was a great prophet, when, in fact, Jesus never claimed to be a prophet, but, rather, He claimed to be the Son of God. If Jesus is who He claims to be, and His teachings are true, what need is there of any other? Yet, in their darkness, they've concocted a story about the "prophet" Mohammed. Since they have made the truths told throughout the Scriptures into a lie, their entire belief system is founded on lies.
It is only an unbelieving world (or an unwilling to see world) that can, in any way, give credence to this despicable belief system and call it the "religion of peace." In fact, it is quite obvious from everything that they say and do that their hearts, turned so decidely toward hatred of others, are in desperate need of the way, the truth and the life.
Although people raised in Islam are taught to follow it without question, Islamic historian Muhammad Ibn Al-Rawandis conclusion is that it simply isnt possible for an intelligent, educated Westerner to convert to such a religion without committing mental suicide.
