Now I will be serious and stop the flippant comments.
I chose Islam because the base beliefs, teachings, and lifestyle (see original post before this became a this-for-that discussion) match my own values and I prefer the more conservative values and teachings of Islam to what is taught and practiced in modern churches today. There is no other reason. I do not wish more wives lol or any of the other "extras" that are associated with Muslims etc etc (laughing at the thought)
I also do not know every detail of Mohammed's life. If you have ever at least tried to research Islam you will understand that said research involves wading through arabic translations and once translation starts, the mismatches begin. So unfortunately I am the wrong one to explain or justify anything that was or has been said concerning any of his activities. I know this, whether he practiced what he preached his TEACHINGS appear to me to reflect a high moral standard that few can achieve.

You questioned my/our beliefs as to whether Moses wrote the last few verses of the entire five books, but you have trouble knowing whether Muhammed was illiterate?
You compare the sins of any of the people in the Bible to having sex with a 9 year old girl, and claim "everybody" sins? By the way, I'm speaking of Muhammed's third wife, Aisha, whom he married at the age of 6. He also said Aisha was his "favorite" wife. That's just sick.
