    Grahame, you have stated it well, today's mindset is to physically ourselves to do what we percieve is right but we always manage to mix in human desires for man's glory. Glory should be given unto God and our reliance should be on God to do his will and not ours.

    But my post was only in response to others. What was your point? I was the one who suggested that we witnessed to Muslims today and not to rely upon stories of Muhammed in the past. As I said in the beginning, I have never heard anything like that story. You should have quoted the first poster.

    My post was in response to that statement. It seems to be a fairly straightforward response. Why are you being so defensive?

    It does have a bearing on why people feel compelled to make wild accusations concerning their prophet.

    It seems more twisty than straightforward to me. Grahame posted againt making wild accusations; you turned it around to imply that the accusations were true and that he was denying it out of friendship rather than historical and anthropological accuracy.

    Possibly because you're so good at baiting, possibly because people are getting edited on this thread for posting historical information that contradicts the "moongod" allegation.

    Wild accusations? You call that man a prophet?

    He lied about the Deity of Jesus Christ, Our Lord and Savior. He claimed that Jesus did not die for our sins. He blasphemed the Holy Spirit. He denied God and His Holy Word. He denied the Resurrection.

    If mohamed was a 'prophet', then Jesus is not Our Lord and Savior. If Jesus Christ is Our Lord and Savior then mohomed was a prophet of satan.

    I choose :jesus: .

    Yes, a Christian prince after a bloody battle killed about 10,000 Muslim invaders.

    Yes, they called him 'Vladmir' - which I understand means impaler.

    Vladimir the impaler came to be known as count Dracula . . .

    I do not agree with the murder of invading soldiers.

    But, to blame Christianity for the response of medieval Europe to the invading Mohammedans is the historic version of the modern blaming America for the terrorists attacking on September 11th.

    No, they call him a prophet.

    Yeah, but he's not a moongod.

    Mohammed was not the moon god, allah of islam was and is, whether the average muslim in 2007 knows where allah originated from or not.

    This "Moon God" junk remains just that, whether it comes from a Chick tract or some unaccountable web site. But I guess it makes it easier to hate than to love those whom God also created if we misrepresent their beliefs rather than understand them. Strawmen and windmills make easier targets than facts.

    Among muslim countries about 13 countries have the crescent in their national flags, in addition to Red Crescent for Red Cross.

    Please note Judges 8:21 and 26 mention about this moon god worship practices which is related to Astarte, Astoreth, Ashera worship

    You defend islam using a red herring by claiming that the name of their god was not the moon god.
    Why? That is what a troll trolls up.

    . . . what part of English, Christianity, and netiquette do you not get?

    Well, first YOU need to find and learn the definition of troll.

    Second the moon god nonsense is pushed by those without the facts and is not substantiated regarless of how many nutty and ignorant preachers say so on their websites.

    Thirdly, I could understand you if you spoke in English rather than the unintelligible combinations of words you tend to spout. Your colloquialisms may be understood in your area, but they make no sense to those of us who speak standard English. And how do you get that I don['t understand English, Christianity or netiquette?

    I think you are behaving like a troll.

    Having studied Hebrew, and having seen the information posted - there is a history of linguistic belief that Allah was a moon god . . .

    Would you prefer Spanish? Because you don't always do well in English.
