Sina's Challenge 

http://www.faithfreedom.org/challenge.htm

 

I receive many emails from angry Muslims, who sometimes beg me, and sometimes order me to remove this site. I consider both, pleading and bullying, signs of psychopathology. Argumentum ad baculum and argumentum ad misericordiam are both logical fallacies.

If you do not like this site and want me to remove it, instead of acting as a bully or as a victim,  disprove my charges against Muhammad logically.  Not only will I remove the site, I will publicly announce that Islam is a true religion. I will also pay 

$50,000 U.S. dollars 

to anyone who can disprove any of the dozen of the accusations that I have made against Muhammad.

I accuse Muhammad of being:

a narcissist  a misogynist a rapist
a pedophile a lecher a  torturer
a mass murderer a cult leader an assassin
a terrorist a mad man a looter



I have debated with many Muslims. Their defense of Islam can be summarized in two categories:  

a-      Denial of the authenticity of Islamic sources that report the stories of crimes of Muhammad (example: debate with Edip Yukssel, a leader of the Submitters) 

b-     Moral relativism and situational ethics, e.g., “In those days,  pedophilia, assassination, rape, raid, pillage, massacre and lying, were common practices, so Muhammad is innocent because he did what everyone else was doing.”  Muslims even go as far as to question the legitimacy of the Golden Rule to claim I do not have any basis to condemn Muhammad. In other words, who can say what is good and what is evil? That is up to the messenger of God to decide. (Example: debate with Yamin Zakaria)

These are the main two arguments that Muslims present in defense of Islam. Any rational person can see they are logical fallacies.    

These charges are irrefutable. You simply can't disprove them because they are reported in Islamic sources and as such they are as good as confession. You can't acquit a criminal after he has confessed, unless you plead insanity, which is my point. 

Muslims often ask: "Who will judge whether or not an attempt to disprove your accusations against Muhammad and Islam, was successful?"   The readers will be the jury. It is not difficult to see which side is right once both arguments are presented without one side fearing the other. I will publish the debates in this site.  My opponents are also encouraged to publish them in any Islamic site.  Please note that I will not accept face to face debates.  The debates must be in writing.
