Had little to nothing to do with Abraham, or Isaiah of the Jewish tribes, or the Jesus prophesied Messiah that would Replace the 10 commandments of Moses with something more in line and better for the people living there now.Ymar Sakarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5173950.post-71514336988322342392016-06-10T13:35:38.318-04:002016-06-10T13:35:38.318-04:00As a result, that dramatic arc takes on theologica...<b>As a result, that dramatic arc takes on theological significance.

The author, probably Muslim or sympathetic to the cause, picked one of Mohammed's later life events on purpose. As that has a higher priority and cannot be easily dismissed as one of his early failures to convert Arabs.<br /><br />However, that does not mean Christians and Muslims were supposed to live as equals.

Which means Jihad produces more worthy achievements. They may also follow Mohammed's early time period of peaceful proselytization. The thing is in Islamic hierarchy, a Jihadist follower of Mohammed is always ranked higher than a follower of Mohammed's earlier time period of using Jews/Christians as allies.<br /><br />No Christian church is allowed to be higher than an Islamic mosque. Preying in a mosque to Islam's god, is an interesting doctrinal decision. As it would be to reinforce Islam's belief of Allahu Akbar=God is the Greatest god of them all. Greater than the god of the Jews and greater than the god of the Christians.<br /><br />And as it so happens, the 3 religions had several differences, and were significantly different at the time. By their fruits you shall know them. And the fruits of Mohammed's conquests are well known by all.<br /><br />An Islamic Caliphate allows the existence of Jews and Christians... as slaves or as the ones who pay the religious tax. 25-75% of their assets. So long as Christians pay the tax and recognize the Supremacy of Allah, they are allowed their lives. Except their daughters and sons may be taken as part of the tax, so they are literally culled generation by generation, until the Middle East is majority Islam.<br /><br />Islam has a lot of propaganda online and offline. In that fashion, they convince people that they are not a threat. It is similar to Mohammed's strategies of winning military victories by dividing his enemies and by fooling them, as well as by killing anyone that tells the truth or ridicules Mohammed or Allah.Ymar Sakarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5173950.post-88975390451002525562016-06-10T13:27:14.819-04:002016-06-10T13:27:14.819-04:00Muslim reformers -- a group I sincerely wish to en...Muslim reformers -- a group I sincerely wish to encourage -- have a big problem with the timeline. The fact is that Muhammad's life got much more warlike and conquest-oriented later, whereas the peace-and-love parts were earlier. Thus, there's a clear dramatic arc in favor of war and conquest.<br /><br />It's even more pronounced if you have the metaphysics that Avicenna brought into Islamic philosophy, which endorses a forward-looking arrow of time for God as well as the world. Muhammad speaking for God said that he never abrogates anything, but sometimes replaces something with something better. Thus, chronologically later statements by Muhammad are <i>better</i> than chronologically earlier statements insofar as they conflict. <br /><br />As a result, that dramatic arc takes on theological significance. It's a very hard problem for those Muslims who really would like to cut themselves off from the violent aspects of the faith, and focus on the harmonious parts from Medina.

So he tried jihad, and it worked. They should look up what happened to those Christian and Arabic tribes that resisted the sexual slaver Mohammed, after 631 AD.
