''Separate the religion called Islam today and the true teachings of Muhammad which gave rise to a golden age of knowledge, science, philosophy and nation building.''
What are the true teachings of Mohammad? How are these to be separated from the vilification of non believers and the instructions on how to treat unbelievers, to kill them, enslave them, cut off their hands, etc?
Anything good is simply the flip side of the coin.....the good part relating to believers of the faith, not to non believers, who were considered to be beneath consideration. That doesn't paint a picture of timeless wisdom or even reasonable decency.
Just more savagery.
Even savages can be fairly moral when dealing with their own tribe or religion. Such consideration may not be on offer to outsiders.
