If Muhammed didn't exist there would have been another one anyways , same goes for Jesus for in the time of Jesus in that area there were many named Jesus raised in the milieu of their times learning to be good rabbis & stand up members seeking the advancement of their tribe . Essentially today on any Arab street in any Mosques or coffeeshop one can find literally 1000's of ruminating Muhammeds & Mullahs just like in America or England etc you have literally 1000's of prophetic preachers & ministers .

Essentially it is an expression of our nature to get into the prophecy game , be ruminating all the time & there would have never been a Jesus had there not been some sessions of older wise men in debates & discussions witnessed by that youth when young , that didn't intrigue him into that calling . And for Mohammed it was the same , its just what men do , like financial planner trying to gauge the direction of the market , just a different kind of market place of ideas we call religion but all falls under the one great game of life & human condition . But if you win in the prophecy game , you win big just look at some of the great most powerful today .

Men & prophecy , its just what men love to do whether in Jesus time , Muhammed's time or any other time ... in almost every culture in the human race one could always find some equal expression of the "eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth" saying . These so called ancient prophecies were really young for it all goes back much farther just as you can find the "do unto others" golden rule idea. Men have always sought for the sources & secrets of wisdom , to unravel the keys of life , to escape suffering , experience glory & triumph . (defeat/cheat death)

Remember watching Archie Bunker show ? He was making prophecies every night ! ;o)

“It ain’t supposed to make sense; it’s faith. Faith is something that you believe that nobody in his right mind would believe.”

There’s nothing wrong with revenge – it’s the best way to get even!”

“Sticks and stones may break my bones, but you are one dumb Pollack.”

“The only thing that holds a marriage together is the husband being big enough to step back and see where the wife is wrong.”

“Listen Edith, I know you’re singing, you know you’re singing, but the neighbors may think I’m torturing you.”

“Entertainment is a thing of the past, today we’ve got television.”


“No, I’ve already had one attempted robbery today.” (in response to Edith suggesting she take him to the doctor).

“Why don’t you go to sleep and dream about the tragedy that is your life.”

“Would you feel better if they were pushed outta windows?” (in response to the statistic that 85% of murders are committed by handguns)
