#1 Funny how it islam split and the bloodshed ensued immediately after mo's death isn't it. These were the very people who knew him and his teachings the best. These were the best and purest muslims of all muslims. And they started fighting like dogs as soon as the old man was cold.

Yeah that mo and his first followers, proof positive that islam is the religion of peace. Look no further than them to refute that statement and prove that islam was only modified and moderated by wiser and better men than mo once it came into contact with more civilized regions.

There is no way to trace a habit of peace and non-violence back to mo and his first followers. None. He was a desert tyrant with a genius for miltary strategy much like that of other barbarian conquerors. He tried his hand at poetry and shamanism and his synchopants proclaimed him inspired. Synchophants always imitate someone who is a proven winner both to ass kiss and to succeed themselves. With the riches mo plundered his movement really took off but it was all based on lies and greed and flattery and it predictably fell apart once the unifiying force was gone.

Unfortunately for the whole world that didn't happen until a new generation of more naiive muslims were born and raised muslims with all the agression and characteristics of their parents coupled with the unwavering belief that muslim miltary victories of the past proved God's favor for the new universal Arab/Borg tribe. By then it was too late for the idea to disappear and trouble the world no more.

All of islam's early history is perfectly consistent with the theory that mo was not a prophet but just a regular human genius with a penchant to do whatever it took to win and his followers learned their lessons well.

As for these calls for unity. Its all hot air and will never come to anything except knives at each others throats.
