Speaker Pelosi: Stand Up for Muslim Women, Not Islamists Like Rauf!
@Thomas_L……
Strange as it may seem, there are some ‘muslims’ who just worship allah – the same way lots of anglicans (CofE) just worship an indefiable ‘god’ of their childhood.
It is hard to break away from from childhood conditioning and feeling guilty about denying the existence of the supernatural.
However, Mohammed/Muhamed was merely human – and a 7th. century, extremely primitive, used camel seller at that. To ignore his misogynistic, arrogant, childish and violent example as something that we, as a society, have grown out of, is easier than denying a personal god. Many of these people still wish to consider themselves followers of allah. This is what is meant when they claim that muslims existed before 622CE. (Rather like the the jews and the christians, same god different prophet/messiah.)
Having been an atheist all my life, I don’t have this problem, but I am able to recognise and sympathise when I see it.
