LAST month the organisers of a talk scheduled to be delivered in Vienna by leading Coptic Christian Fr Zakaria Botros had to be cancelled after threats of violence were proclaimed by furious Islamists.
Hardly surprising, really, as the flamboyant Botros is no great lover of Islam – and Al-Qaeda has reportedly put a $60 million bounty on his head for bad-mouthing the demented inventor of the Religion of Peace.

Fr Zakariah Botros, who has a bloody great axe to grind with Islam
The Muslim’s world’s hatred of Botros stems from the fact that he regularly savages the “prophet” Mohammed on the evangelical Arabic satellite station, al-Haya (Life TV) – especially on two weekly programmes: Hiwar al-Haq (Truth Talk), which he hosts, , and Su’al Jari’ (Daring Question), hosted by ex-Muslim Rashid.
Both shows revolve around asking uncomfortable questions about Islam and its founder in an effort to prompt Muslims to reconsider the legitimacy of their faith.
Botros, for example, has pointed out that Big Mo was a bisexual, and sometimes a transvestite and a necrophile. He apparently enjoyed sucking on the tongues of children, commanded a woman to “breastfeed” an adult man, and advised believers to drink his urine.
Nothing wrong, of course, about being bisexual or a transvestite, but as for the rest … well… eeew!
Rashid, on the other hand, recently examined the theological implications of Mo’s hatred of the Gecko lizard, which the “prophet” accused of being “an infidel and enemy of the believers”. Muslims who kill it in the first strike receive 100 “heavenly-points,” whereas those who kill it in two strikes receive only 70.
Was there anything that lunatic didn’t want dead?
These broadcasts, according to this fascinating report, are viewed by millions of Arabic-speaking Muslims around the world. That the satellite station strikes a raw nerve with Muslims is evinced by the fact that it is formally banned in several Muslim countries, including Saudi Arabia, and is regularly condemned by Islam’s demagogues on mainstream Arabic media, including al Jazeera.
How great it would be great to describe Botros as rational. But alas he is not, for in this interview he says he believes that:
Only Christianity offers the truth. Based on my faith in Christ, I reject all other religious systems as man-made and thus not reflective of divine truths. Moreover, one of the greatest crimes committed by Muhammad – a crime which he shall surely never be forgiven for – is that he denied the grace and mercy that Christ brought …
He added:
But faith aside, common sense alone makes it clear that, of all the world’s major religions, Islam is most certainly false. After all, while I may not believe in, say, Buddhism, still, it obviously offers a good philosophical system and people follow it apparently for its own intrinsic worth. The same cannot be said about Islam.
Of all the religions it is the only one that has to threaten its adherents with death if they try to break away; that, from its inception, in order to “buy” followers, has been dedicated to fulfilling some of the worst impulses of man – for conquest, sex, plunder, pride. History alone demonstrates all this: while Christianity was spread far and wide by Christians who altruistically gave up their lives, simply because they believed in Christ, Islam spread by force, by the edge of the sword, by fear, threats, and lurid enticements to the basest desires of man.
Islam is by far the falsest religion—an assertion that is at once theologically, philosophically, and historically demonstrable.

In so far as he gives Islam a good bollocking, bully for him. It says a lot about Islam’s brutishness that such a primitive sect as Coptic Christianity can still be regarded as an improvement, and it’s displacement by Islam and Arab culture surely Egypt’s second-greatest disaster (after Christianity’s destruction of Graeco-Egyptian culture, of course).
June 28th, 2010 at 10:57 am
Well said that man!!!! Except “Only Christianity offers the truth.” of course, but we’ve come to expect that of religious believers. All the other stuff about how islam “from its inception, in order to “buy†followers, has been dedicated to fulfilling some of the worst impulses of man” is so true!
It’s interesting that he considers:
“all other religious systems as man-made and thus not reflective of divine truths.”
As far as I can see, christianity was an adaptation of judaism, using the stories from the torah as the basis for the old testament and accepting all it’s prophets as it’s own. If he considers ALL other religions to be false, presumably this includes judaism. Therefore christianity is based on a false religion. I suppose there’s no point looking at it logically though is there?!
June 28th, 2010 at 11:37 am
“He apparently enjoyed sucking on the tongues of children, commanded a woman to “breastfeed†an adult man, and advised believers to drink his urine.”
So is he saying that if Anti-Psychotics and psychiatric care had been around in big Mo’s time islam would never have been invented
June 28th, 2010 at 12:02 pm
The only religion that *still* murders people for leaving the faith, maybe.
June 28th, 2010 at 3:25 pm
What he says about islam is correct, it’s just a pity he can’t see that ALL religions are false including xtianity.
June 28th, 2010 at 4:22 pm
@ Graham Martin-Royle. Indeed. Reminds me of the Richard Dawkins’ point that everyone is an atheist for all religions except his own; he (Dawkins) just goes one step further.
These religions of peace do love to murder and torture each other, don’t they?
June 28th, 2010 at 6:44 pm
Most of what he says is pretty much on the nail but the blind spot concerning his own beliefs takes some believing. Christianity has certainly used plunder and sword in the past to further its ends. Does he not know about the rape of South America or the Crusades. Is he perhaps only referring to his own sect, I don’t know enough about that to pass comment.
June 28th, 2010 at 6:58 pm
So is he saying that if anti-psychotics and psychiatric care had been around in big Mo’s time Islam would never have been invented?
Obviously, Michael; and so for most religions, bar those invented by pure conmen like L. Ron Hubbard and Joseph Smith!
June 28th, 2010 at 8:41 pm
Apologies for being off topic but I have just been here, http://failblog.org and seen a product claiming to be a gum that stops you from masturbating. I cannot tell if this is a genuine product or a joke but if true you can bet that religion is involved.
June 28th, 2010 at 10:14 pm
@Stonyground
I think that one is one of those joke gums you find in novelty shops. I have seen one, that made me giggle, that if you masticate it, you will believe in god and jesus! Pretty expensive, but funny nonetheless.
June 29th, 2010 at 7:25 am
Who is Fr. Zakaria Boutros to insult Prophet Muhammad? He was the even craziest the he imagined. Each fact in the above article is very stupid in the world. How can Prophet Muhammad to be accused as a crazy man? If he is a crazy man, how Al-Quran give any answer for each people question. For example, Al-Quran tell us how the process of human being in mother womb. 1400 years ago, there are no high technology to investigate this process, but how what wrote in Al Quran is same with scientist found at 19 – 20 century. A people who try to condemn Prophet Muhammad is either he/she is crazy or very stupid person in the world because he/she not see what Islam have teached to be a good person. In Islam all thing have a guidance so that people life become more sistematic and harmony, Islam teach us to be gentle, if Al-Qaeda or Jemaah Islamiyah or Laskar e Taiba did suicide bombing, is not thaugt by Islam. Islam oppose any action harm to others. If you dislike Al-Qaedah, Jemaah Islamiyah or Laskar e Taiba, all of their action in violent is not related with Islam, they have misunderstanding on Islam concept of Jihad which only defend our right not invade others right. Thank you
June 29th, 2010 at 7:36 am
Islam is very different with other religion because Islam taught us everyting in our life. Islam is very sistematic and very perfect religion to drive us for the truth. Why Islam oppose homosexual? Because in anus have very dangerous bacteria that will harm human health. In western homosexual is common, many of them without any shame make a sodomy at bus stop, in shop, in train, in bus. There are no shame for the homosexual to did a sex like an animal and let others people see by a reason of human right. A stupid excuse by the person. Are the person doing sex in public have no shame to moan and naked until others can see his genital? There are no shame to do this because the have no mind to think that the action is very shameful. If we look at animal, there not find hiding place to make a sex, if we as human did a sex in front of others, the level of person is same like animal. Islam teach to take care of dignity, but in western there are no dignity because they can have a normal sex or sodomy in public. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 7:50 am
Islam not teach women to drink her husband urine, the word from Fr. Zakaria is a fraud and he is a big liar in the world. In Islam urine is a dirt, how can Islam let women to drink urine eventhough her husband?
Islam never teach to do a sex like an animal like western did now, in Islam sex must do in proper way, can’t do a sex through anus because at there have many dangerous bacteria and women can’t pregnant if we did sex through anus, that why Islam oppose husband have a sex through anus but sex by vagina is permitted because women can pregnant by this method. Islam also not encourage oral sex because in our mouth have many bacteria will harm our genital. Islam is very perfect religion that protect human right and drive human for a truth, if we look why Islam oppose free sex because it will show the person have no dignity and when she was pregnant, who will be a father if she have a sex with 100 of different man? How beautiful Islam to drive us for the truth, Alhamudullilah. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 7:55 am
Athiesm is the most idiot way of life for a human, that why most of atheism people can’t see a truth because they hypocrite not to see a truth was give to them. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 8:17 am
@ Barry Duke
Can we have a guest post from Mo so he can express his fascinating worldview in an organised fashion, laid out as a specimen?
It’s a real insight into the psyche of believers and would be of value for this reason. (And lolz) Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 8:22 am
@ Mo, can you explain us Islam’s teaching on sex with animal. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 8:42 am
@Mo You seem to be a very knowledgeable expert on sex with the anus and with animals. And at bus stops? Really? Wow.
Oh and as for there being ANY scientific knowledge in the Quran – especially about pregnancy LOL again! Sadly, I think it far more likely your barbarian ancestors hacked up the pregnant womenfolk of their enemies to have a look at what was going on inside them. Presumably in front of their families – then beheaded them slowly with small knives as is your kind’s obsession with horrific torture and lack of ANY human dignity or human rights of their victims.
By the way, whoever told you all about the west – That hilarious stuff you keep coming out with? Not actually true I’m afraid. We have dignity, equality, education, women’s rights, welfare, even criminals get treated fairly – no depraved amputations or whipping here – and we have advanced technology too – look you are using the internet yourself – Long life expectancy, healthy children, and we get to pick who we marry too – and its not our own cousins either.
In the west, we hardly ever die in stampedes, or through drinking dirty water, and we never detonate bombs strapped to us to kill women and children in markets. The idea of killing anyone in fact is totally frowned upon, even if they are repellent hate-filled islamofascist murderers that your lot like to send over.
We are nice like that. Some would say too nice. I suggest you direct your energies to your own fellows to improve their levels of education, healthcare, social wellbeing, improving living conditions in third world islamic countries etc rather than trying to drag every one on the planet back to the stone age!
Have a nice day – and perhaps stop reading that Quran – that kind of hate-filled primitive nonsense will rot your mind and make you write idiotic bollocks on the internet.
June 29th, 2010 at 8:46 am
I would debate with Mo but I have to go and make a sodomy at bus stop.
June 29th, 2010 at 8:50 am
OK I shouldn’t feed the troll but…..
Mo, you are disrespectful to your mad friend Mohammad because you don’t write “peace be upon him” everytime you mention his name.
June 29th, 2010 at 9:35 am
Mr. Arnold Lane, Islam never accept sex between animal with human, this action is only done by western people who was lost of their mind until make a sex with animal. I not say all of western like this, but the type of person may have a sex with animal more refer to atheism who not believe for God. Atheism people have no point of life, they only think about joy without thinking about morality.
Mr. Stargrave, at least Al-Quran have a valueable knowledge for each thing which science only know in 19 or 20 century but Al-Quran tell us the process of human being 1400 years ago, it mean Al-Quran is a truth, doesn’t like Origin of Species by Darwin, a fairy tale statement. It so funny if human is origin from apes, so why the others primat such monkey, cimpanzee, gorilla, babun not change to a human, why they still a primat? Origin of Species is a liar books, can you tell me how this can happened? I wait for your answer, I want to see your funny answer through liar book, Origin of Species. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 9:39 am
Mr. Gronk, you have no answer to my question, so you find such idiot reason for not answer my question about of the idiot of atheism. I not feel wierd when you want make a sodomy at bus stop because atheism people have no shame, I also not feel shock if you make a sodomy in stadium like a idiot Black Metal music action. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 9:43 am
Mohammad,I can’t work out whether you are using “Babel Fish” which makes nonsense of every translation, or you are just being your babbling self?
Homosexuality is rife every where men’s groups are to be found and particularly prevalent in misogynist societies where women are excluded.
June 29th, 2010 at 9:53 am
Mr Gronk, it so funny when you said western people defend women right? Ha Ha Ha, I want to laugh for this funny statement. So stupid statement. What are the women right in western country? Right to sex with many man without marriage? Right to naked on public? Right to be a prostitute? Right to be a pornography star have a sex like an animal and show their action around the world? All of these is a useful right. Islam protect wowen by respecting their dignity, why muslimah should wear to protect their aurat, so that they not be a target for rapist. If we look women walk naked, she will be aimed by rapist that will rape her or may be kill her after raped. That why Islam protec women by wearing proper cloth so that they can prevent rapist become more crazy when look women body.
Islam is very clear in right of each people including guilty person to be sentenced by death. Person will punish with death also have a right to not feel much of pain, so Islam perfom death punishmen by beheading so that the person not suffer for long time because person who beheaded will dead in several second if we compare with hanging to death take more than 1 minute, electricity shock will damage human body, poisonous injection will cause very suffer pain. Islam is very clear and very gentle in everytthing. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 9:59 am
Mo, how long does it take to die when being stoned to death? Thank You.
June 29th, 2010 at 10:01 am
Mr. Fedupwith, it up to you to feel what you want, I only describe the truth that all of atheism is blind for it. Religion is needed by human and the true religion is Islam. Homosexual is a babarian pratice, is very shameful if in a modern society and have high technology like western people have a same sex practice. How can human can expand when men have a sex with men and women have sex with women? I never hear that men can pregnant, if men can pregnant, how he can out his baby in his body? A funny doing by athiesm people. Ha Ha Ha I laught in funny. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 10:02 am
Mo, what do you think of the Iranian practice of *hanging* homosexuals? Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 10:11 am
If stone to death, we should try to minimise the time of stoning to reduce the guilty person suffer. I know you want to trick me about this question. You should know, why Islamic Law or Hudud give a heavy punishment for crime action so that people fear to do any crime. Islam want people live in harmony, not in violent or naked on public like atheism people did. Eventhough Hudud law give heavy punishment, but when punish someone who guilty, Islam try the best to reduce the suffer of the person punished eventhough beheading or stoning to death.
You must know that Islam is very strict with morality because Islam want each follower become a good person, the best person, not a rude, not idiot, not immoral person. Islam by Hudud protect the right of each others so that people can live in harmony, if we look at secular law, it can prevent crime, in western country many rape is occur, violent by teenagers, sex without marriage, sex without animal on the reason of stupid human right and many more problem in western country. If you learn is properly, you will find that Islam is the perfect way of life because in Islam each thing have their guidance. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 10:13 am
What an ignorant backwards moron. Why are you obsessed with imagining western women acting out your depraved fantasies having sex in the street like animals? You sound very repressed and sexually very immature!
And by the way – man is still an ape. Man is still an animal, just evolved differently to other apes. This is not a point of debate – it’s an immutable truth, proved beyond doubt by genetic science.
Some men just have more dignity than others – and choose not to grovel on the floor to appease an imaginary psychopath, and behave like primitive savages going round raping women unless they are in a bodybag, and killing gays because they are different.
If you think that is honorable behaviour – then you are a very sick person.
Oh and by the way, surely the internet is haram? Computers are haram? Aren’t you upsetting your prophet?
June 29th, 2010 at 10:16 am
What Iranian Government done is right, homosexual must be stopped because the practice is abnormal, are you think homosexual is normal? If you think like this you are idiot because how can man can pregnant? We must protect our nation from idiot practice such homosexual, atheism, naked on public, have a sex in public, taking alcohol until drunk and drive improper until involved in accident. Western people have no knowledge like Islam knowledge, Islam very perfect and try to prevent something so that is can’t be a cancer for society. Maybe Mr. Dr. Cancerman like to be abnormal person because he like cancer in society. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 10:21 am
Mr. Gronk, only you and your friend that believe human from ape is a monkey, that mean all of you are animal descendent and you are an animal. I not want to insult you, but you admit that you believe that human is from animal, so you are descendent of animal. I not admit I am a descendent of animal, I am a human, and all Muslim is human and also others religious people feel they are descendent of human only you and your friend is animal metamorphosis become human, I can’t imagine how the process of monkey become a human, so funny. So why the other monkey not change be a human at now? You answer is a liar from a funny idiot book, Origin of Species, a liar book in the world.
June 29th, 2010 at 10:29 am
Islam not say Internet is haram or computer is haram, because in Islam haram is for the act or thing that can result a harm for human or environment. For example why Islam not permit it follower drink alcoholic drink because alcohol will make people unsound mind. If we look people drink alchoholic drink until drunk will act like a crazy people because his was unsound mind. Internet also, it become haram when we look pornography website, gambling website or other unuseful website. Islam have no problem with technology so Islam not prevent Iran to make a nuclear electricity station for it citizen use, electricity is not harm to people, but the action of Israel demolish Palestinian house and kill Palestinian people is a rude and immoral also abnormal action as a human on Islamic view. You may ask or accuse anything I will answer because Islam have the perfect answer for each question. If you ask how the shape of universe I have an answer, the answer is universe have no shape, only Allah know the real shape of universe, that is an answer, you can give any answer when I ask you before. It mean Islam is very perfect religion and the best way for human life. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 10:32 am
Mohamad – your ignorance is a very sad indictment of your fellow “Believers” – such nastiness, stupidity and hate.
That’s why you will never ascend to being a productive member of mankind as long as you keep your brain locked in the ignorant lies of the dark ages.
You and your kind will forever be dependent for science and progress on the west and don’t you forget that. How can you believers ever hope to create medicine to combat evolving viruses and disease, when you don’t even know what man is? Or what evolution is?
You sad little, bitter, hate-filled man.
June 29th, 2010 at 10:37 am
Mo, are Jews human? Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 10:39 am
ha ha – Monkeys and pigs! LOL!
June 29th, 2010 at 10:44 am
Mo, is it allowed for a Muslim to be friends with a non-believer? Will you be my friend? Thank You.
June 29th, 2010 at 10:55 am
Mr. Stargrave, even Albert Einstein also believe for a religion, he have said religion without science is not fully perfect but science without religion is totally blind. That mean religion is very important than science because religion have everything to answer any question but science have no answer for certain question. For example science have no answer for the shape of universe but in Islam universe have no shape and only Allah know the real shape of universe. So there are no answer from science, but religion especially Islam have an answer for this question.
The evolution theory is very idiot theory, there no logical mind can imagin monkey can change to be a human but monkey at zoo still a monkey, why they not change to be a human? You have no answer because you read an idiot book, Origin of Species. If you want to know the truth, read Al-Quran, you will find the truth. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 10:56 am
Jews are also a human, I never said Jewish people is not a human, they still a human, but their behavior is inhumman, but not all only zionist type. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 11:00 am
Islam never oppose to be a friend with anyone, but for a good purpose. I have no problem to be a friend with anybody as long as he/she is a good person, Islam teach it follower to be a good person, not a cruel person such Israeli regim that kill Palestinian people simply and take a brutal action to grab humanity aid in Marvi Marmara ship. I didn’t want to insult anybody, but I only want to tell all of you about Islam that you have wrong information about it. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 11:16 am
On behalf of all of us regular lurkers at Freethinker, I would like to thank Mohamad for these truly illuminating insights…
June 29th, 2010 at 11:20 am
Islam is the best way for our life, in Islam all thing have the guidance to do it for harmonious life. Try learn Islam and your life will be the best for the future. Alhamdulillah, Allah is very merciful for give me a strenght to fight for the truth. In Islam there are all answer for any question that can’t be answered by science. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 11:20 am

June 29th, 2010 at 11:32 am
Mr. Barrierjohn, you have no answer for all my question, so you babbling such a rubbish statement that not help you to answer my question for all athiesm people. There is the Only God, Allah, the Merciful God that create the universe and all of it component. Subhanallah. Islam is very perfect because it come from the true and The Only God, Allah. Alhamdulillah. Thank you.

It’s more intelligible if you put him through Google Translate, and set it to “Borat to English”
June 29th, 2010 at 11:36 am
Mr Gronk, have you puzzle with this issue. This issue can be answered by reading Al-Quran and have a faith with the Only God, Allah. Subhanallah. Science can’t give all answer for life mysteries, only religion through the real religion, Islam can answer all of the question the still mysteries for science. Alhamdulillah, thak you.
June 29th, 2010 at 11:48 am
No, thank YOU Mohamad
June 29th, 2010 at 11:51 am
MO – You have not provided an answer for ANYTHING – pure waffle.
Except Allah did this, Allah did that, – but no proof that Allah ever existed at all. Considering we know how the planet formed over billions of years, and how we truthfully evolved from ape-like ancestors – this liar Allah, who claims to have done these things, there is no evidence or proof of it anywhere that cannot be totally explained naturally.
I second MrGronk in thanking you for being an amusing addition to the board.
I also believe that one of the supposed tenets of Islam is to educate yourself. You have EPIC FAILed in that respect.

Mo, please go read the Koran. It expressly forbids you from being my friend, as I am a “perverted transgressor”. 48:29, 9:29 and several others. THANK YOU.
June 29th, 2010 at 12:53 pm
Mr. Stargraves not all thing we can see, we can feel the air, but we can’t see the air, we can feel a pain, but we don’t know how the shape of pain, we know the person is in fever but we don’t know how the shape of fever, either like a monster, Ultraman, Power Rangers, Tony Blair, George Bush, or Netanyahu, nobody know the shape of fever. So if there are many thing we know it exist, it not impossible for we can’t see Allah because Allah is the Merciful and if you want to see Allah you should wait for Heareafter. Opps, you don’t believe about religion, but you will see the reality of life after you death. At the time there are no excuse to live again in the world because many people give you the truth but you dislike it. As a human, we still believe that there is a powerful thing that control the universe but some of us try to denied this fact for not follow the truth, they want joy on the world but in Hereafter, you will get the reward based on you belief. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 12:56 pm
Mr Arnold Lane, Islam not prevent his follower to be a friend eventhough with non-muslim because all of us is a human. Islam only prevent it followers to become a friend for a bad, and violent person because this type of person can bring Muslim to the hell. Islam is very fair in anything, only the person who still prejudice on Islam can’t see the perfect of Islam. Subhanallah. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 12:56 pm
Mo, you haven’t replied to my comment: “Mo, you are disrespectful to your mad friend Mohammad because you don’t write “peace be upon him†every time you mention his name”
Is it because you are a misogynistic twat as your religion demands or are you not a proper muzzie?
June 29th, 2010 at 1:10 pm
Ms. Angela K, all of you also not give me any question for my answer that i give for all of you. Why? Are all of you have no answer for each my question, is you have puzzle to find the answer because there are no any answer for my question in idiot book, Origin of Species. Thank you.
June 29th, 2010 at 2:36 pm
He didn’t respond to my q about animal sex either.

Mad Mo is spoiling the fun it used to be to read these pages, hogging so much space with his x by 3 answers. He is being more than a little tiresome. Can’t you do something?
June 29th, 2010 at 2:45 pm
Mohammed was even crazier than we imagined, says Islam’s most hated man.
At first I assumed this applied to the original psychopath of arabia, but apparently it seems to apply to all Mohammeds.

@ BD – The only sensible solution in the end.
He was a trolling uneducated ignorant moron of course. But it was also a very sad insight into the non-functioning, completely empty mind of someone conditioned into something less than human from birth.
He is incapable of thinking, reasoning, evaluating, assessing or expanding his mind with new learning. Any idea or thought is clouded by a sadistic anti-human doctrine of sickening hate.
It’s like a sci-fi horror scenario akin to Invasion of the body snatchers, but of course, there are actually billions of those unthinking sociopathic automata out there.
June 29th, 2010 at 7:07 pm
@ Barry Duke
Big thanks. Sad case, he needs to talk less, listen more.
June 29th, 2010 at 7:16 pm
Thank Christ for that!
Islam is very fair in anything, only the person who still prejudice on Islam can’t see the perfect of Islam.
Are you quite sure that it wasn’t Fabio Capello?
June 29th, 2010 at 11:35 pm
@Mohamed
You said, “Who is Fr. Zakaria Boutros to insult Prophet Muhammad?”
He is a human who doesn’t have to respect your supposed prophet.
I am sick to death of religion assuming it deserves respect for it’s varied and ridiculous precepts. Bad ideas are bad ideas and do not deserve respect. PERIOD. You cannot demand respect for ridiculous ideas merely by calling those ideas “holy”.
I have read the Quran and found it to be full of hate, violence, misogyny, child abuse and tyranny. I READ IT. I have read some Hadith as well. Disgraceful.
If you seek to emulate Mohammed as the ideal of how to behave in this world, you’re a vicious, violent, repulsive, unreasonable, brutal, petty, sexist, child molesting rapist.
I certainly hope you’re more moral than your religion.

@ Mohammad.
From your words it seems like you think people whom accept evolution,think Monkeys changed themselves into Humans instantaneously,via their own will.Whereas Darwin’s “theory”(many rationally consider it proven),describes an often slow process(though sometimes a fast process,even sometimes varying from generation to generation)of natural forces varying environmental conditions(often climatic)favouring survival and reproduction of specific individuals having particular qualities,that at that particular time,were most suited(fit)for that particular environment.Sincerely.

I am a historian on Islamic studies and I can tell you that everything this man has said is completely BS. Muhammad was perhaps even more pious than the historical Jesus (if there was one). His shortcomings were polygamy, but all his marriages were justified, his marriage with Aisha, but Aisha wanted to marry him, and his military pursuits, though in self-defense. I used to read articles on this website, since I am an atheist, but now I realize that this website is completely biased and most of its readers have no knowledge of religion, their founders, societies, history, politics, or even science. People here just base their opinions on other people’s biased opinions and you guys, frankly, seem like anti-religious radicals. Because of this website, I am now turning to religion because I now know atheism has destroyed my once moral life.

Fr Zakaria is totally wrong,wrong, wrong and WRONG about Mohammad P.B.U.H. Islam contains the best and most purest laws that protect men and women from vulgarity and immodesty. If this man is insulting Muhammad P.B.U.H, then can he, please, tell me why are hundreds of thousands of CHRISTIANS, and people belonging to other religions accepting Islam as their religion, and leaving Christianity? Islam is purest religion, so truthful, pure and fair that it has regarded other religions, including CHRISTIANITY, as only INCOMPLETE but NOT WRONG. You Christians over here,including Fr Zakaria, are so unjust, narrow-minded and full of envy and hatred. Whereas, on the other hand, we Muslims are peaceful and friendly with you Christians but it is YOU that do not want to improve relations and insult our religion. Have any of the Muslim scholars ever, ever insulted Christianity? NO, NO and NO. But let alone ordinary people, even CHRISTIAN SCHOLARS are insulting ISLAM and so YOUR HATRED, SELFISHNESS, ENVY AND ANGER is obvious. I, including ALL OTHER MUSLIMS around the world, not only RESPECT CHRISTIANS but ever other religious group. THIS is what ISLAM has taught us MUSLIMS. May ALLAH, My Merciful and Beneficent Lord, guide you IGNORANT CHRISTIANS to the right path and correct your gruesome thinking about the HOLY RELIGION OF ISLAM. Ameen
AND I thank you very much and appreciate your understanding and thinking, Historian. It is people like you that I respect very much and that are civilized and educated. I wish you best of luck from the BOTTOM of my heart. May Allah bless you with righteousness and virtue. Ameen.
