18. The thing is, Mohammad's "inspired" text directly benefited him...

Edited on Thu Dec-22-05 01:24 PM by grumpy old fart

The koran speaks repeatedly concerning Mohammad himself, not just about God. For instance:

8:1 They ask thee (O Muhammad) of the spoils of war. Say: The spoils of war belong to Allah and the messenger, so keep your duty to Allah, and adjust the matter of your difference, and obey Allah and His messenger, if ye are (true) believers.

4:14 And whoso disobeyeth Allah and His messenger and transgresseth His limits, He will make him enter Fire, where he will dwell for ever; his will be a shameful doom.

Most everything is obey Allah AND HIS MESSENGER. Mohammad sets himself up very nicely in this book he wrote.

Maybe it's just the cynic in me.
