Re: Fundamental ? abt Islam #1: Why Mohamed?
Atlantis, what zero1 is talking about is quite a metaphysical theory. In a sense, we all “existed” in some form of energy/matter, especially if you go for the superstrings theory 
PCG - you are saying he (Mhd) was from the tribe that was involved in a lot of immoral deeds and that he was a ‘ladies man’. wouldn’t these disqualify him rather than qualify him to be prohet?
Well I’m a Pakistani and Pakistanis are immoral to the bone, generally. But does this generalization mean that I’m the same? That you’re the same?
Just because he’s from that sort of a tribe doesn’t mean he’s like the others. In fact, he was the poor member of the tribe, since his parents died when he was young and they didn’t have much in the first place either. Just look at how many wealthy families of today have members here and there that are different from their families.
Duh.
And what’s wrong with being a ladies man? . I mean that he was well liked by all the ladies, was sensitive and gentle - he wasn’t your typical butch-manly-man kinda guy. More than half of the world’s population is female. I think any kind of ideal leader should be able to work with both sexes.
