We of the western world have been told many times that Islam is a religion of peace and tolerance. We have been told that Christianity, Judaism, and Islam all worship the same god, but take our doctrines from the teachings of different prophets, and that that fact should not be cause for contention between the three faiths. We have been told that Muslims living in the USA are, for the most part, moderate, decent, and tolerant of the beliefs of others and have no plan to dominate the world or to convert all others to their way of worship. Well, I, for one, don’t believe it and I have put together a list of things that should cause more than a doubt in anyone’s mind.
Evidence as to the fallacy of Muhammad as a prophet…
- Muhammad hated Jews and Christians from early childhood, before his revelation as a prophet. He considered them arrogant and stubborn in their confidence in their god and their tenacity toward their faith. The humiliation and denegration of these haughty people consumed his being throughout his life.
- Only after several people, including a Christian monk, had expressed the opinion that Muhammad had a special aire to him, and that he had the look of one favored by the gods, did Muhammad reveal that he had been visited by the angel Gabriel and that Alla had chosen him as his only prophet.
- Throughout his life everytime he changed his teachings or added something new to his doctrine, Muhammad would, days later, miraculously experience a revelation from Alla demanding the change be made. Not only was he a prophet but he could read the mind of Alla, it seems. It was always the prophet making the decisions for change and new policy and later, conveniently, having Alla reveal it to him.
- The self proclaimed goal of Muhammad as the prophet of Alla was to bring all of humanity into the light of Alla and to eliminate, even by violent means, all those who rejected Alla and Islam. From the beginning of Muhammad’s life as a prophet, he adamantly demanded that every person alive must be made to see the superiority of Islam and its god, and he created a process he called jihad to bring about the success of that overiding, singular doctrine of his new religion. Knowing this to be the single most important doctrinal requirement of Muhammad’s new religion, what is there to attract peace loving, moderate people to Islam? What great reason is there for anyone who does not want to dominate the world to adopt a theology requiring that they do so? Are these moderate Muslims afraid of the penalty if they don’t believe or convert? Some admit as much. Or do they hide their true loyalty to increase the possibility of success in their quest for jihad? The radical leaders claim that is more truthful. Muhammad declared that the only thing more evil than a non-believer was an apostate, a Muslim who had turned from Islam to Christianity or Judaism. His policy regarding the converts was that they receive no clemency or pardon, but that they be beheaded as devils that had heard and understood, yet rejected his teachings. Muhammad started several full-scale wars to inflict this punishment on entire nations who had converted from Islam or who rejected Alla. A religion of peace? I beg to differ.
- If, as they claim, Islam worships the god of Abraham, why does their doctrine teach of a warmongering, intolerant, murdering god and not the loving, fatherly god taught by both the Jewish and Christian faiths to be the god of Abraham? Why is Alla so different in nature to Jehova? Did he become angry all at once when Muhammad was born? Are we to believe that shortly after the birth of Muhammd God suddenly ceased to be what he had always been, and changed His nature from that he had been known by to the blood thirsty, intolerant tyrant that Muhammad says He is? Are we to suddenly forget all the prophets like Ezekial, Moses, Abraham, Isaac, Joshua, and David, and the apostles, and Paul, all those who foretold or witnessed the fullfilment of God’s purpose and promises and take the rantings of a man who proclaimed himself a prophet as the truth instead?
- The prophet Muhammad proclaimed from the beginning of his teaching that Jesus was not the Son of God, only a lesser prophet, and that Alla would never lower himself to the point of having a son. Muhammad also said that Christ had not been crucified but, instead, a look alike had been hung on the cross to fool the masses. Furthermore, Muhammad proclaimed that Jesus had knowingly deceived the world regarding the will and purpose of God, and that Jesus would, after the world ends, come forth and admit that all He had taught, love thy neighbor, the forgiving nature of God, God’s love of His children, were all lies and that He knew it when He was teaching it. The god I know did not have a liar for a son nor a murderer for a prophet.
- One of the requirements of being a Muslim is to accept Muhammad as the ultimate model of a perfect human in all things including appearance, mannerisms, speech, style of walking, eating habits, facial expressions, etc., and to emulate him in every aspect of your life, and to become the perfect duplicate of Muhammad in order to make the world a more perfect place to live, and so all people would be perfect.
My friends, we have been promised by the world of Islam to be killed if we do not convert and worship Alla. They have, by their own laws, warned us of their intention to faithfully follow the jihad of their prophet as their only reason for existence on Earth. For 1400 years the Muslims have faithfully gone about the business of subjugating entire nations and races of people to their way, and have murdered millions of non-believers in that quest. We all need to desperately reconsider the words of those who say Islam is a valid, peaceful religion. Consider their motives and purpose in their teachings. Consider the fact that from the beginning, Muslims have grown their religion exclusively by the sword and that their own written history lists civilizations vanquished and lands taken as bloody proof of their success in pleasing their god. I say we must believe in their promises and actions and not their god, accept not their belief in Alla but their determination to kill in his name, and instead of tolerating their religious views tolerate the necessity of killing them first wherever they are, in their mosques in the USA, in caves in Pakistan, and in the streets of Baghdad, and have faith in the knowledge that God in Heaven will prevail in the end and forgive our need to kill, and His children will inherit the Earth as meek and threatened faithful who, when pushed to the brink, asserted their faith and saved their own lives, in His name and for His glory, Amen.
