Hey raymond why did mohammad kill so many people that didnt believe in his religion. They were forced to convert or else they would be killed. Jesus christ never Killed a single soul. Or dont you believe thatisnt something you can force but something you have to accept freely. it must come from within your heart. Now explain how you can love 4 women at the same time,and if you want to divorce them all you have to say is t'al-aa t'al-aa t'alaa. Sounds like a very convenient way for a man to have his cake and eat it too.

The Prophet once passed by two graves and said, "They (the deceased persons in those graves) are being tortured not for a great thing to avoid." And then added, "Yes, (they are being punished for a big sin), for one of them used to go about with calumnies while the other never saved himself from being soiled with his urine. In Islam, cleaniliness is important. Between your death and Judgement Day, you will reamin in your gave at which time you will be questioned about certain things you did in your life. The people in the Hadith above had not kept themselves clean and were being punished. Then they killed the shepherd and drove away the camels. When the news reached the Prophet he sent some people in their pursuit. In Islam, the penalty for murder is death. Peace be unto you, Norris
