Do you want me to beleive that the "Spanish inquistions" and witch hunting in Europe in which hundreds of thousnds of women were burnt alive just because of one sentence in the Bible (thou shall not suffer a witch) were due to some greed for power???

Pl download and read The Necessity of Atheism by Dr. D.M. Brooks available freely at Project Gutenberg. That book has graphic description of atrocities committed in the name of Christianity and Islam. (Now don't say that I know this one book only - I have read dozens of books, but this one is easy to understand and available freely).

One parallel was the capturing of about 700 Jjews and lining them up on a trench by your Prophet himself. After slaying the jews, he enjoyed the widow of one of them on the very same night!

You sound as if these jews were innocent people grazing their cows in field and Prophet Muhammed killed them.

First of all - They are not general Jews-they are just one tribe of jews,no harm was done to other jews.

secondly these numbers were exaggerated.

This jewsish tribe called Bani quaiza betrayed the Muslim army after their allegiance of support.
what will you get when a support group in a war if found to be aiding the enemy?
These jews were given verdict by the judge they themslves chose and given punishmnet according to old testament.This is what war gives and this is how traitors are punsihed.

So, the so-called revealations of the "most merciful creator" were created to suit specific circumstances? Why you people cannot understand this simple truth? You can only fool the gullible believers but not people like me who have knowledge of many religions and their so-called holy books.

2:216 Warfare is ordained for you, though it is hateful unto you; but it may happen that ye hate a thing which is good for you, and it may happen that ye love a thing which is bad for you. Allah knoweth, ye know not.

Absolutely Bala...your prophet stole the religion of the Jews and sneaked in his name as a prophet...terror and fascism has been the hallmark of Islam since then from which the world has'nt known much respite.
