I think you need to read your own words before putting them in public ...

More than that, you need to study your own words before commenting. You say yourself that Islam is more than a religion. How true. As a matter of fact, Islam finds most of its adherents through its culture. Who cares who Allah is? After all he is Arabic and that is of highest importance.

You say Europe and other western nations should accept culture of Muslims. Ok, let's get the Muslims to do even a hundredth of that in their own lands. Through example they can exhibit their tolerance of other religions and cultures. When Islam adheres to those priciples, then they may find some accepetance. When Muslims in Muslim lands quit blowing up Christian churches, raping their women and children, and forcing them to convert to Islam, then perhaps. But I think your religion based on culture with a mish-mash of other religions thrown in needs to travel a very great distance before finding acceptance in our countries with the track record they display in EVERY SINGLE MUSLIM DOMINATED COUNTRY.

Muhammad learned a great deal of Jesus Christ's teachings, threw in a little Hinduism, and then distorted everything to benefit himself. He takes the one true and perfect God's teachings and then distorts them to benefit his own ends.

You say one thing is from "old" teachings. Well, what is it going to be? If Muhammad is so infallible,why can't he make up his own mind - as inspired by "his" god - Allah? Jesus Christ never backtracked anything he taught, rather, Muhammad corrupted his every intent and purpose.
