Islam ... , how can you say it is pure? By what yardstick do you say that?
Did not Mohammed rape, murder, lie, torture, own and sell slaves, rape slaves ... break treaties, live off the proceeds of crime and steal?
If Mohammed was alive now, in virtually every country on the planet he would be in prison. He is the voice of Islam and the example of the perfect Islamic man.
So by what low standard do you use when saying Islam is pure?? How low do you set the standard of purity?
