Let me ask you, dear Erci, You ask respect for the Islam.

what is the respect in the Islam for the unbeliever, for the one who criticises it??

If you cannot answer this question and you cannot find me one imam who can, you have lost the discussion.

A turkish I call Erci has written: "the prophet MOHAMMED (peace un op Him) saw a dead dog and he could see of all that dirt his beautiful white teeth.
IT means that the profet (out ) of something dirty still could see positive things.

I believe in respect."

Do I have to look at the white teeth of Mohammed when I read this:

..".Mohammad allowed his followers to rape women captured in war. No reasonable person would accept that having sex with women/girls captured as 'booty' after the murder of the males in their family and tribe and their own enslavement, is consensual sex. The fact that Muhammad committed rape is evident from the stories of Rayhanah (Rihana), Mary the Coptic, Safiyah and Juwairiyah.***Koran 4:24 And all married women (are forbidden unto you) save those (captives) whom your right hands possess. It is a decree of Allah for you…… "

Whose thinking is sick?

Tyranny is not love.

All tyrants ask respect for their rule and kill people who disagree.
Mohammed was not different.

That is why Mohammed's barbaric holy war is discredited by anyone who is spiritually aware. If the pope says he respects the Islam, it might be because in the past the Church has also fallen into the same trap of power as Mohammed during the time of the inquisition. The pope himself believes in unquestioning obedience . One does not solve philosophic questions or questions of faith with violence but with wisdom alone.

Spiritually the Islam can never be accepted without ignorance or denial of its utter barbaric aspects. The Islam has lost to the wisdom of love the moment the sword was taken to force anyone to Islam. It is because the Islam cannot win on the philosophical level that it has to have the right hand by the use barbaric methods and impose the belief by force where it is not accepted. And this is not love, nor justice nor the true victory. You can try to adopt a loving way to convince people for the Islam, but then you have to cover up the truth of the barbaric tyrannical sides of the Koran as if they were not there.

your friend in the love of truth
