Nice politics of personal destruction. Well done. I wasn't ranting. History shows that Mohammed was violent amd militarisitc and in part used military means,. oppression, killing and threats of death to spread his Islamic religion. He also married a 5 year old (even taking into account that shorter life spans/expectancy probably lent to people marrying/procreating a little bit younger than they do today, 5 seems a little....welll..... creepy.). This is the person through whom God/Allah's voice is distilled in the Koran. All I am saying is, for what that is worth.... No one here would take issue with calling Koresh or Jim Jones a loon, I'm not sure why Mohammed gets so much leash from the liberals on the board. His behavior, according to accepted history, doesn't necessarily seem to warrant it.
