Here are some questions for journalists.  Why do you refer to Muhammad as the Prophet?  Is he your<\/em> prophet?  Do you mean to endorse his claim to be a prophet?  Or the<\/em> prophet?  Do you accept the very idea of prophecy?  Do you speak of Jesus as 'Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ'?  Or as 'the Son of God'?  If not, why not?  Or perhaps you advocate a double standard:  in a Christian country such as the USA one may not refer to Jesus using the honorifics employed by Christian believers, but one must, in a Christian country, albeit with a secular government, refer to the warrior Muhammad as the prophet, and this while Christians are being slaughtered by adherents of the 'religion of peace.'<\/span><\/p>\n
