@8-) >>>Mohammad was a very good business man; he married an aged rich widow and used his wisdom to expand his business. Mohammad is a public figure and why cannot people learn to accept criticism of a public figure is beyond imagination. Most problem in the world today exists because of intolerance towards other faiths/beliefs or not being able to take criticism on your own belief.. When will people learn?? What do you know about mohammad? Have you ever read quaran? have you ever thought why saudi firefighters pushed girls coming out of a ablaze building just because thier burqa burnt and their face was exposed? Have you ever thought why 29% hindu in pakistan in 1945 are now less than 1%? Have you ever thought why death of 3000 people in WTC was a reason to distribute sweets among millions of muslims? No it is not because muslims are misunderstood. It is also not because as person muslims are bad. It is because of mohhammad... it is because of his book quaran... just like a religious buddhist has to shave his head and wear orange dress, muslims have to kill or convert non-muslims... Millions of people died in china but still followers of mao said communism was best ideology... even today ask any communist he will tell you that communism failed in russia and china because it was not "implemented correctly"... same is the case with islam... a muslim always feels all his problems are because of infidels... he never thinks that there might be something wrong with islam or muhhammad... Frankly the mohhammad you are talking about is figment of your imagination... real muhhammad was very much like depicted in cartoons... Even today there are thousands of people in mental hospitals across the world who think god is giving them message to spread to world... perhaps if jesus or mohhammad was born in this age they would have been correctly diagnosed and kept in mental hospital and millions of lives could have been saved... perhaps we would have made small colonies on mars by now... I am lucky that I was born in nepal... I could leave islam and still alive... i would have been killed for saying whatever I feel is truth if I were born in any islamic country... please get rid of your imagination of islam and help muslims realize that they are doing no service to allah by serving military dictator muhhammad... Just to clear up facts... 1. muhhammad said a person can marry 4 women... but he had 9 wives... he married ayesha (a 6-year old girl) and consummated his marrige when she way just 9 years old and muhhammad was 53... he used to play with her when she was playing with her dolls... when he died his mouth was full of saliva of ayesha and he died on her lap. 2. muhhammad ordered his army to kill 700 jews in mecca even when they had surrendered. He chose most beautiful jewess as his possession and had sex with her same day he killed all her male relatives. 3. The worst crime according to mohhammad is not killing of innocent person but praying to an idol. Apparently allah was very sad that people were praying to idols in place of him and that is why he sent mohhammad. When muslims are majority in any place then according to quaran they must destroy all idols temples etc... now can you blame taliban saying they misunderstood islam? 4. Those who die in service of allah(read suicide bombing etc) recieve special place in heaven with 72 beautiful virgins.... converting a person to islam (by threat or persuation) has much more reward than praying full life or going to haj. 5. only permitted motive for befriending a non-muslim is probability that he/she may convert to islam someday. And so on... I got sick when I read quaran and hadiths myself.
