"those who bend their heads to this cult do so for fear or cowardice, or when venerating the god of the money, not for respect"

Obviously you dont know any Muslims, nor do you know what the Muslim faith stands for. The lesson of Islam is to SUBMIT to the will of God... the God of the Torah, the God of the Prophets and the God of the Quran... the same one God.

In some terms, you are 100% correct but not for the reasons you think...

• The religion of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Mohammed is far from a cult
• We accept the Gospels of Jesus, the psalms of David, the Torah and the Quran as our Noble books, we are far from a cult
• We revere Jesus as a Holy Messenger of God and we believe that there is only ONE TRUE GOD, the same God of Abraham and Moses, the same God of the Christians, Jews and Muslims, we are far from a cult
• Over 2 bn members world wide, the fastest growing religion in terms of CONVERSIONS and BIRTHS, it is far from a cult

• We do bend our heads for fear and cowardice.. .for fear and cowardice of Almighty God. Muslims are told to fear no-one but God alone, Muslims are told not to fear death, not to fear poverty or their enemies, not to fear suffering, only God alone
• On the basis that God is the God of all things, yes, he is the God of money, the God of the heavens and the Earth... Muslims have 99 names for God... here are a few:
• Al-Wahhab (ÇáæåÇÈ) The Bestower
• Al-Mu‘ezz (ÇáãÚÒ) The Giver of Honour
• Al-Wadud (ÇáæÏæÏ) The Loving, The Kind One

So bring on your insults and your libels against Muslims and against the one God - that same God of al humanity.

When our time comes and we meet our maker, there will be an accounting of all of our deeds, good and evil, there will be a reckoning and we will be made to pay, in this life or the next. We will all be held to ACCOUNT for our deeds.
