OK, guys. Let me help you here.
I was born and raised in a Muslim country. All of my friends were Muslims. And I even had participated in a student conference on the subject of Islam and Politics.
Now, you have to understand the following:
1) Islam was absolutely fabricated by Mohammed, who stated that the Jews were the chosen people, but they corrupted the Torah;
2) Islam was assembled from pieces taken primarily from Judaism: One G-d, circumcision, no pork etc.
3) Mohammed liked Judaism, but he was against isolationism of the Jews. So he created a religion for all.
4) It was obvious to him that in order to replace Judaism, he had to discredit it first, so he did.
5) It was also obvious to him that nobody would follow an illegal copy of Judaism voluntarily. He saw how Christians were missionizing, and he liked it, but he wanted a more certain success, so he used power and “holy” justification of violence. This is how Islam became a religion of war.
6) He made the process of conversion easier than in Christianity and waaaaay easier than in Judaism, which at those times was significantly more isolated than today. In order to become a Muslim, you need to say that Allah is the only one g-d, and Mohammed is his messenger. That’s it.
7) And of course, even with this simple conversion technique, nobody wanted it, so they were forced to convert. Arabs burned down the territory from Indonesia to Morocco and converted every infidel. Jews were not considered infidels, since they believe in one G-d, but they were considered second class.
8} All Muslims, including those whose forefathers were converted by force, defend other Muslims no matter what. They hate each other, but when an outsider is involved, the Muslim circular defense comes into play.
9) And yes, Islam makes people underdeveloped and envious.
Abdullah is either a liar or he converted into the wrong address.
Why? I’ll tell you… He probably saw the unity of Muslims, their greater morality and modesty level, and he liked it. And let me tell you another thing – there is one good law that Mohammed invented and is different from Judaism – he had forbidden alcohol.
So Abdullah, or whatever his name is, liked the spiritual part of Muslims, and as an expense he had accepted all the weird stuff that Islam is full of.
Let me tell you something, Abdulla:
1) You want to believe in One G-d?
2) You want to have a strong family with a moral girl?
3) You want to circumcise your son(s)?
4) You don’t want to eat pork?
5) Are you against hatred that Islam is full of?
6) And last, but not least, are you ready to make efforts of more than saying that Allah is the only one g-d, and Mohammed is his messenger?
Then don’t buy a cheap and illegal copy of anything. Stick to the original, real thing. An original cannot be corrupted other than by an illegal and pirate copy of it, which is arrogant enough to claim that the original was corrupted.
