The Quran is Like the Craigslist Killer
That's right: If the Qur'an were a person he would be a psychopath. And by psychopath I mean a serial killer who seems to be a nice guy, but underneath, the real person, the true person is a barbaric, savage, violent homicidal thug. Let me explain.
Look at the photo of this happy couple. Megan McAllister and Phil Markoff were both 19 years old when they started dating in 2005. In 2007 they became medical graduates from the State University of New York-Albany and became engaged on 17 May 2008 setting the date of the wedding for 14 August 2009.
But the wedding is on hold (actually Megan canceled it): on 21 April 2009 Markoff was arraigned at Boston Municipal Court in Boston, Massachusetts accused of murdering masseuse and aspiring model Julissa Brisman of New York City in a Boston luxury hotel. You may know him as the Craigslist Killer.
Now it could very well be that he is innocent (the trial most likely will not take place until January 2011) although the evidence against him is quite overwhelming. (1)
Before she left the country to continue her medical studies, Megan would have told you that Markoff "seemed to be a nice guy." It's amazing how often we hear that. I rarely read of a case where they interview a friend or neighbor of a serial killer and they respond with: "Oh yeah. We knew he was a psychopathic killer. We're surprised he wasn't caught sooner."
The Qur'an has these two faces. The nice guy face which are the Surahs from the Meccan period, collections of the sayings of Mohammed when he was but a mere prophet trying to convince Christians and Jews to come over to Islam. Then there is the true face of Islam, the Surahs from the Medinan period, collections of the sayings of Mohammed when he was a Prince and a conqueror and no longer needed to pretend he was a tolerant guy.
When he was in Mecca he was nicey-nice toward the Jews. This is when he went around telling everyone there is "no compulsion in religion." Jerusalem became the qibla - the direction and focus toward which Muslims should turn in prayer.
When the Jews of Medina scoffed at Mohammed's interpretation of their Scriptures, and his claim to be the Messiah promised by their prophets, he retaliated with sudden "revelations" from Allah accusing the Jews of corrupting the Scriptures and charging them with unbelief and worthy only of being killed. The qibla was then changed to Mecca and the Kaaba. When the prophet Mohammed lay on his deathbed he said, "Let there be no two religions in Arabia." So much for "no compulsion in religion."
You will hear Muslim apologists quoting the kinder, gentler Surahs of the Qur'an, leading you to believe that Islam is peaceful, tolerant, harmless and loving. But the truth is, the later, harsher, savage Medinan verses are the real instructions Muslims must follow.
How do I know? Mohammed told us so. Mohammed said that contradictions happen because Allah sends down newer revelations which improve or replace the older ones: known as the Qur'anic Abrogation - Surah 2:106: (2)
We do not abrogate a verse or let it be forgotten without bringing a better or similar one. Do you not know that Allah has power over all things?
So while Muslims deceive gullible infidels with the peaceful, loving verses from the earlier sayings of Mohammed, they know amongst themselves that such verses, though in the Qur'an, were abrogated, and rendered null and void by later passages that incite murder, pillage, decapitation, torture, and religious subjugation of the unbelievers.
When Muslims are among us, they are like Phil Markoff, we are wooed, wined and dined. But in secret darkness, in their hearts, they are Craiglist killers.

Wiki, Evidence
- A semi-automatic weapon was found hidden in a hollowed-out copy of the textbook Gray's Anatomy under Markoff's bed. Law enforcement officials reported to The Boston Globe that tests have found a preliminary match between this weapon and the weapon used to kill Brisman.[34][35][36][37] It has been reported that 16 pairs of women's panties were found under the bed, and that among them are pairs belonging to the two victims. Police investigators believe that Markoff may have kept the panties as "souvenirs" from his alleged victims, and that there may be other victims who have not yet come forward.[38] ABC News further reported that along with the weapon and panties police found duct tape and approximately 60 plastic flex-cuff restraints in Markoff's apartment.[30] Investigators said the plastic restraining ties used in the Warwick attack match those plastic ties.[35] ABC News and The Boston Globe reported that fingerprints found on the plastic restraints and duct tape left at a crime scene matched Markoff's fingerprints,[34] and Markoff's fingerprints were found in the room where Brisman was killed, police sources told ABC News.[35]
- Suffolk District Attorney Daniel Conley said Markoff opened an email account on April 13, the day before Julissa Brisman was killed at the Marriott Copley Hotel, using his real name and address.[30][39] Police contacted the Internet-service provider linked to the email to Brisman and tracked that to Markoff's high-rise apartment complex in Quincy.[39]
- Trisha Leffler, a prostitute who said she was bound and robbed at the Westin Hotel in Boston on April 10, told ABC Boston affiliate WCVB that she immediately recognized Markoff as the man who'd robbed her when she saw him on surveillance photos released by police.[40]
- In a search of Markoff's apartment, police found $800 in cash, $250 worth of gift cards, and a bank card allegedly stolen from victim Trisha Leffler.[41]
- An anonymous law enforcement official quoted by the Boston Herald alleges that fingerprints belonging to Markoff were found in the hallway of the Holiday Inn Express in Warwick, Rhode Island, where a stripper offering lap-dance services has claimed that a client she met through Craigslist attempted to rob her. Markoff also allegedly sent text messages from the hotel.[42] It has been reported that the victim in the Rhode Island robbery is reluctant to cooperate as a witness in the Markoff case.[35]
- Law enforcement sources told ABC News that Markoff had scratches on his body when he was pulled over and arrested by police on April 20.[40]

Islam Review, The Qur'an's Doctrine of Abrogation
When speaking with people of Christianized/Western societies, Muslim activists deliberately hide a major Islamic doctrine called "al-Nasikh wal-Mansoukh" (the Abrogator and the Abrogated). This simply means that in situations wherein verses contradict one another, the early verses are overridden by the latter verses. The chronological timing in which a verse was written determines its authority to establish policies within Islam. Non-Muslims cannot afford to be ignorant about the full implications of the Abrogator and the Abrogated Doctrine (al-Nasikh wal-Mansoukh). When Islamic spokesmen say that Islam is a religion of peace and that the Qur'an does not support such things as human rights infractions, gender bias and terrorism, they are lying. This means that the Western politicians and liberal journalists, who continually spout that Islam is a noble religion of peace, are in reality propagating a deception that they have been deceived into parroting.
