I have heard of this but I always brushed it off as anti-Islam propaganda. But youre saying it's for real. There was a tribe in Iraq called the Yazidis. They were into a weird religion. I hear they are heavily persecuted now since Saddam was overthrown.

Well, the Bible talks about tribes that engaged in human sacrifice and weird sexual practices to various gods, ba'al this & ba'al that, etc. The Bible enjoined the Israelites not to go that way. I thought Muhammad & early Muslims echoed that same sentiment.

OK. That's what I thought. Muhammad conquered most of Arabia. Then Abu Bakr & Omar & Uthman & Ali kept up the momentum until they had conquered all of the Midde East, N. Africa, parts of India & China & so on. That's my understanding. They amassed an empire.

Christians love to eat meat, though. They say God gave them the animals to have dominion over them yada yada yada. They love their pork & beef & chicken & lamb & anything that moves, practically. Haha

Devout Muslims would not accept your views. If you went back to Iraq, now, I think you would have a hard time of it. My understanding is that it has become more fundamentalist Islam than when Saddam ruled.
