You are predictable

You're talking about the past again, which is all Muslims understand, so it would seem. I don't believe in prophecies; I believe only in realities. America and Europe are enlightened countries and Islamic countries are in the dark. They will stay there until they learn how to behave in civilized society, which will be a very long time.

The promises of a man dead for 1,400 years will not help you. He couldn't have foreseen the technological wonders Western societies would create and if he had, his only wish would have been to destroy them because he didn't create them himself and therefore couldn't own them; it's simple jealousy and his followers are the same. Muslims have added nothing to the world in the way of intelligence, technology, science, literature or any other advancement. In fact, Islam would apparently like to see the world return to the Dark Ages. But that won't happen. The whole World is united against Islam. Even Jews and Germans will unite against Islam.

You are not part of the Muslims who are peaceful and you are not extremely violent, so you fit into the middle and most confused type of Muslim: the ones who say Islam is peaceful but who go ballistic and threaten you with death if you don't agree.

Muslims are all talk and alot of negative action with very little positive action. That's why the world will carry on and Muslims will be left behind. Within 5 to 10 years, your oil will be worthless and you will return to the sand from whence you came.

As far as thinking goes, I've done plenty of that in my life. I've also done a lot of research and am very good at it. I had to be to earn my 3 degrees.
