Mohammed ...

I am not concerned with the Koran. i am concerned with the Haddiths that most people don't know about. the rules for living ones life according to Mohammed. except they were not written by mohammed. they are a collection of anecdotes by people who claimed to know Mohammed 200 years after his death. they knew that their great grandfather knew something mohammed said etc. 700,000 of these idiotic quotes were collected and narrowed to about 7,000 from some informed "scholar" who traveled the world of Islam. this is like me today going around asking people for personal rules to live by that George Washington used. And finding people who claim they knew him through a deceased relative. And the exact way he wants us to live our lives. What a load of horse manure. the Koran was written down by a 16 year old girl because Mohammed could not read or write. And she printed it as it came out (like whenever a new way to subjugate someone emerged) onto palm fronds, bones and other discards. It was not gathered together and "edited" for years. ... How anyone can claim divinity for this ...is unreal. unless you think marrying a six year old as an old man is okay. Or killing people because they disagree with you. read JIHAD by Paul Fregosi and learn about Islam through history and the tactics they used to kill off any detractors. Pathetic. Just pathetic.
