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.

I think the Jews still sacrifice animals in various rituals. The hardcore, Orthodox ones, that is.

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

Yeah, you are not your average Iraqi, that's for sure. And I mean that in a good way. 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.

Toppling Saddam was one of the stupidest things the US ever did. Ignorant Americans think he was some kind of Islamic fundamentalist. They have no idea. The ignorance in the USA is staggering. I hardly talk to anyone anymore. It's hopeless.
