Dec 2, 2020 1:00 pm By Stephen M. Kirby 18 Comments

Let’s continue examining the creativity of Considine’s Fantasy Islam. Muhammad’s Farewell Sermon On p. 61 Considine lauded Muhammad’s Farewell Sermon as an example of Muhammad’s belief in racial equality: The Farewell Sermon (see Appendix 2) of Muhammad…is another noteworthy manifestation of the Prophet’s stance on anti-racism. He stated in the sermon: “…a white person has […]

93% of Muslim Public Officials Would Not Express Support for the Constitution They Swore to Uphold

Jan 7, 2020 3:00 pm By Stephen M. Kirby

It’s more than just about having three Muslims in Congress. I think symbolically it has great value, but I won’t rest until 2020 we have five more members of Congress; 2022 and 24, we have ten more Muslims in Congress. In 2030 we may have about 30, 35 Muslims in Congress.  Then we’re talking about […]

In Part 1, we looked at Donner’s book Muhammad and the Believers at the Origins of Islam and saw that Donner’s premise of an ecumenical “Believers’ movement” founded by Muhammad was not supported by fact.

The original Ku Klux Klan (KKK) was founded on December 24, 1865 in Pulaski, Tennessee by some former officers of the Confederate Army. Its name came from the Greek word for circle: kuklos.

“It’s OK that Muhammad married a child because people didn’t live as long back then” – Really?

Aug 13, 2018 9:17 am By Stephen M. Kirby

One can still find Muslims who deny that Muhammad married Aisha when she was six and consummated the marriage with she was nine. This is in spite of Aisha’s own words, e.g.: “Narrated ‘Aishah that the Prophet wrote the marriage contract with her when she was six years old and he consummated his marriage when […]
