Chapter 2: Muhammed lived in a dusty, dry, desert climate--in fact, Mecca was the only oasis for miles around. His distant relatives made a living by tending to the Kaaba (sound familiar?) where pilgrims came every year to worship their special rock: aka They went on what was called RAMADAN. His ancestors provided food and lodging to the devout. There were 360 rocks--the biggest rock was allah, but allah had 2 daughters-(will explain later in "The Satanic verses")--plus a bunch of other "rock gods" Muhammads family wanted nothing to do with him, because he was a "screwball" LOL--so he invented a god named al Racheiem--the original "god" that talked to Mo' in one of his caves. He stated to his 64 y/o wife that he was squeezed by an "demon" and told to "RECITE"--Muhammed told the "demon" he didn't know how to read, but that didn't stop the demon--he squeezed him AGAIN--and was told "RECITE" At that point he ran home to his wife and hid under her gown, shaking and trembling--telling her "I was seized by a devil" and "Hide me"---no kidding folks. He still lived in Mecca, and had no income. What he tried to do was wrestle the wealth of the Kaaba for his own pocket--but the villagers knew he was a scam artist. There was a considerable Jewish population in Mecca--so Muhammed started "buying" verses of the Talmud and Torah---plagiarizing both of those books and claiming they were revelations from "Al Racheim" (a YEMENESE god) He was tormented by the villagers--called a liar, and a fraud. This is important because this early development defined what was to come. This was the days when he developed a real hatred of Christians, and especially Jews. He did, in fact, go on to kill thousands of Jews and then Christians, and I will tell you WHY he did this. It wasn't out of hatred, it was for BOOTY. It was in Mecca were he met his 6 year old Aisha, whom he promptly molested and married at the old age of 9.
