Most people do not know the story of the founder of Islam but it is essential that one understand it, if they wish to understand Islam and what motivates it's followers. In light of the spread of Islamic influence around the globe, and the many atrocities committed by Islamic Jihadists, it behooves one to know their enemy. Here is the unvarnished truth about Mohammed. It presents facts. Not opinions. Read the facts and make up your own mind. It's several chapters long, but it is anything but boring. Please set aside some time to read it and tell me what you think. Thank you.
The Story of Mohammed: 1 Early Life
Thanks for your post. I had time to read the first six chapters and then I jumped to chapter 26 on Female Genital Mutilation. Incredibly sad and inexplicable. And the fact feminist groups say nothing and the mainstream media and govts in the West and PBS documentaries, et al. stay away from bringing this up means what? It means everyone is afraid of fanatical Islam and they fear for their own skin. Europe is afraid, politicians are afraid, journalists are afraid, Hollywood is afraid --- because there are enough crazed fanatics who might very well seek you out and murder you. Fatwa for cartoons, Fatwa for saying anything negative about Muhammad or Allah.
And still there are a billion Muslims who either swear total allegiance to this false religion or they, like the rest of us, are too afraid to leave it or criticize it.
There are many, many good people who are Muslims and desire peace and no conflict with their neighbor.
There are also many, many Muslims who bear great hatred and intolerance to non-Muslims, most especially Jews and Western "infidels" and most likely are pleased when those non-Muslims are attacked or destroyed. This is unbelievable there are so many who may be in this group.
Finally there is God and there is the devil. The devil influences or tempts all of mankind. Some are more influenced or altered because of this malevolent force. I believe the devil has infiltrated Islam far more than any other religion because of its obvious hatred for Judaism and Christianity, and because there are so many untold millions of fanatical murderers willing to kill anyone that do not agree with them. Prove to me there is no devil and I will retract my statement.
