Opinion of Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him)

[Famous Mortimer]

Joseph Smith of the 8th century, only more violent.

I'd be interested to know why people who aren't Muslim are voting FF.

Haha, "don't speak ill of the dead" the ultimate cop out.

Western society does not revere random Roman patricians the way Muslim society revers Mohammed. If you insult a random Roman Senator who had sex with children, no one will want to kill you over it. In fact, almost everyone will agree with you.

I don't like Islam but I'm not prejudiced against it. I haven't pre-judged it. I've just judged it based on its tenants and, yes, its founder. Its founder's actions are part of the reason I don't think its a respectable religion (although obviously I don't necessarily hold any ill will towards individual members).

It's pretty ridiculous that you think people would think Mohammed was a great guy except for the fact that they are prejudiced against Muslims and so therefore they rate him badly. This is not something that ever happens. In fact, it's the exact opposite. People don't dislike Mohammed because they dislike Islam. People dislike Islam because they dislike the horrible guy who came up with it and all of its beliefs.
