"Show me just what Muhammad brought that was new and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached."

Emperor Manuel II Paleologos, 14th century Byzantine Emperor.


The above quote was used in a speech Pope Benedict XVI held in Regensburg, Germany, september 2006.

Maybe it is a good idea to discuss the new and good things the Prophet Muhammed brought to the world.

Maybe it's the alcohol or maybe it's the bizarre twists that my life seems to continually send my way but whatever it is, I thought I'd break with tradition and tell you that you are a complete moron.

2. Give up your rights for peace sake.

3. Give unto Ceasar the things that are Ceasar's ...

Just 3. There is more.
