Moo-ham-id (piss be upon him)

[RightWhale]

He never learned to read or write or he might have stumbled across some Aristotle in Aramaic. Could have come out a lot different.

[DogByte6RER]

Muhammad was also a pedophile.

Muhammad “dies in the arms of Aishah, his third and favorite wife.”

Aishah was Muhammad’s nine-year-old bride.

What a perv.

[RightWhale]

May be just a touch of stomach flu or historical fallacy or both.

In 610, in a cave in Mount Hira north of Mecca, he had a vision in which he heard God, speaking through the angel Gabriel, command him to become the Arab prophet of the "true religion." Thus began a lifetime of religious revelations, which he and others collected as the Qur'an. These revelations provided the foundation for the Islamic religion.

Written like the article's author believes it actually happened.

Mooohammmer:

Feces be upon him.

[2banana]

Africa and Asia voluntarily adopted the religion

BS ALERT!

[Wiseghy]

This absolutely reads more like a story of military conquest and empire building than religion.

In Christian history, religion was interwoven subtly into military domination, such as the mission system of the American southwest.

In Islam, the religious figure lead the conquests. The difference is a stark one.

[Joe Boucher]

I was brought up a Christian and taught to honor other religions.
I learned from experience to abhor Islam.

(i.e., Muhammad Goes to Hell)

Interestingly, FR tolerates this for some religions' leaders but not others. ;^)

Read a few books on Islam. Find out how evil it really is. You will never make that statement again.

Thanks but, I wasn't saying I had much doubt about where Islam's founder is spending eternity.

Any time I'd waste reading about Islam would be better spent with the Bible.

Amazing, isn’t it? While I do NOT know the author, I’d make a small wager the author doubts the life of Jesus Christ, and the words breathed out by God to His apostles that form the New Testament.

"Born in Mecca of humble origins, Muhammad married a wealthy widow..."

Was his full name John Kerry Muhammad?

[zeugma]

WooHoo!!! Something else (besides shutting down illegal alien amnesty) to celebrate!

[crazyshrink]

If I read this right, God commanded, through Gabriel, that MoHAM...should declare himself the prophet. And MoHAM...did, and set out to conquer the world with wars.

Where does this “religion of peace crap” come into play?

[DogByte6RER]

Yeah...I figure that I'll be celebrating this afternoon with my wife while drinking martinis. The death of an anti-Christ and the death of a shamnesty immigration bill; both on June 8. Cheers!

A lesson about a false prophet who was commanded by the Enemy, appearing as an angel in light.
