I know there is much ado of late in the political theater. Now, since I have mangled my way through a few of life's challenges and can get back to contributing to my favorite blog, I'd like to discuss a theater of different venue. Don't worry, I have plenty of politically oriented pieces just wrestling with one another to be written first. I'd say a fair amount of Musing Lew explosion is about to occur on the pages of FZ. But, all that aside, right now I want to talk about the real theaters and an epic movie that is way overdue. I have been studying the phenomenon of global jihadism for quite a spell now. But, with Obama's overtures of friendship towards the Muslim world community since taking office, and his plans which may include releasing terrorists from Gitmo onto our own soil, I think it time that Americans became truly educated to the history of Islam.
The best vehicle for this in the media would be a historic film about the religions founder. I'm not talking about an Islamic influenced film like the 1976 ode to Islam "The Message". But rather, I would like to see, a historically true depiction based on the Hadith (a collection of narratives dealing with the life and deeds of the "prophet") and the Sira (Muhammad's recorded biography). Great care would have to be taken not to vary from the actual recorded history. Anything less would lead to Muslim outcry. But representing the true story should lead to Muslim praise, no? No, probably not, as the actual story is one that tells of a man that endorsed wholesale declaration of war on innocent peoples, rape, slavery, subjugation, forced conversion, and pedophilia.
As of late I have taken up telling the many stories I have accumulated in my little creative mind into screenplays. Currently I have four that I am working on. I don't so much have an ambition to ever write a made into movie script. I just like to find creative outlets for my musings. After educating myself on the formatting of such endeavor I found it really fit my abilities. Therefore I'd like to whip out a couple of scenes for our readers indicative of how I see the telling of the Muhammad story on the big screen. Please forgive any amateur mistakes as I have just started into this new expression. And, by all means, if you are some hootie tootie Hollywood director or producer (like we'd ever see one of those on a conservative blog) and you like the idea for the movie, and like the scenes given...feel free to E-Mail me.
FADE IN:
EXT. CAMEL PEN AT MECCA - BLAZING SUN OF DESERT DAY
MUHAMMAD, age 7, moves among several mangy looking camels pushing their droppings to the outer edges of the rope pen with a crude broom made of desert materials. The year is 577 A.D. His UNCLE, Abu Talib, strides over from off camera and kicks dirt mixed with camel dung back in at the young prophet.
I told you to be finished with this
hours ago. We must have these
camels brushed down and well
watered before the buyers arrive
from Medina. They have traveled a
great distance Southward to
purchase our animals.
Yes, I know uncle. I apologize most
profusely. I was lost in thought
about the festivities tonight.
Muhammad increases the pace of his sweeping to a frantic rate. After finishing the cleaning of the pen he retrieves a bucket with soapy water and a hair brush from beside the pen.
(muttering to himself)
Someday, uncle, you will be the one
brushing my camels.
INT. LARGE MULTI-COLORED TENT - NIGHT FESTIVITY
There are women twirling about in rainbow hued skirts and halter tops to rhythmic drum beating. At the front of the tent is an altar with several pagan type idols sitting on it. The men are sitting around the perimeter of the tent in a circle drinking and watching the women dance. Muhammad’s friends ABBAS and MURAD sit beside him.
So, your uncle sold every last one
of those camels?
Yes, only because I made those flea
bags look like choice stock. I grow
weary of my uncle. He never shares
the profits of the business. He
only bestows on me the work.
He would not get away with that if
your mother still lived. Men should
be treated as men from birth.
The revelry grows to a climactic fervor. Two men close to the boys bring forth an Arabic looking bong and begin to smoke. The thick smoke clouds Muhammad’s vision...
DISSOLVE TO:
EXT. CAMEL PEN AT MECCA - BLAZING SUN OF DESERT DAY
Muhammad is now 25 years old. He leans against one of the pen rails and talks with KHADIJA, a well to do widow of appreciably more years than the prophet.
It is this that I am telling you
woman. I have worked since my
mother’s death for my uncle. I have
no standing with the social
climbers of Mecca. Were I to have
the money I would travel afar and
make your trading business the most
successful of the land.
Khadija looks thoughtful as she chews her bottom lip.
So, saying I believe this, what I
would have to ask is whether you
are planning to have us marry for
the sole purpose of making yourself
rich. I am already more than
comfortable Muhammad. It is a man’s
warmth at night that I desire. Why,
exactly, have you courted me so
enthusiastically these last few
months?
Muhammad feigns indignation as he turns his back on her.
I cannot believe you to ask this!
You know that I love you. I am only
thinking of how to make you truly
happy. By all the Gods I swear this
to be true my love.
Then I shall take you at your word.
We shall marry at the crest of the
moon ceremony.
MONTAGE:
A) Wedding ceremony with Muhammad and Khadija
B) Muhammad leaves Mecca leading a caravan of traders
C) The traders are selling at a Jewish settlement. Muhammad
picks up a Torah and begins reading.
D) The traders selling at a Christian Monastery. Muhammad
sits on a bench with one of the cultist and studies old
testament.
E) The caravan rolls back into Mecca. Muhammad is years
older. The lines of much desert travel etched in his face
EXT. OUTSIDE MUHAMMAD’S TENT - COLD DESERT NIGHT
Muhammad barrels up to the doorway of his tent on a beautiful white steed. His horse sprays the front of the tent with sand and loose rock as he yanks it to a halt and leaps off.
(Excitedly)
Khadija! Come quickly! I have
wonderful news.
Khadija opens the flap of the tent and steps out. She now is slightly bent with age and not bearing her fifty five yearswell.
Yes, my Muhammad, what ever has you
so excited?
Muhammad spreads his arms wide and snorts loudly.
You know I have taken to these
periods of contemplation woman.
Tonight I was rewarded for my soul
searching. As I sat, imploring the
god of the universe for guidance,
the angel Gabriel appeared before
me.
Khadija looks worried and places her hand on Muhammad’s arm lovingly.
My husband, you know the Meccans
are quite content with their own
gods. But they are an accepting
bunch. With enough of our money in
the right pockets there should be
no problem telling your tale. What
is it you envision, my husband?
I am to be the prophet. All in
Mecca shall know the divine word
through me...
End of Part One
This abbreviated part gives us some of the history of Muhammad up until he has his "revelation" that he is to be the true "prophet of God". It was necessary so that we can see some of the influences and feelings of inadequacy that he suffered as a boy. Being an orphan and not very well to do one can easily speculate that Muhammad's life was very difficult as a child and probably filled with envy and distrust of the affluent Meccans around him. Although his uncle had some standing in the community Muhammad was a mere hired hand in a camel herding business who could not rise above his lowly station in life until he married a well off widow. It is commonly thought that he encountered the Jewish religion and probably early Christian cultists as he traveled building up her trading business.
After about fifteen years of this Muhammad had amassed enough fortune to afford him leisure time. Around age forty he had taken off on a "contemplation" and returned telling his wife that the angel Gabriel had given him God's message to prophet. Thus begins the saga of Islam. Muhammad spent thirteen years in Mecca trying to convert its polytheistic populace to his new religion. At first the Meccans were tolerant of him and his hundred or so followers. But eventually Muhammad made moves to verbally abuse the pagan religions in Mecca. Many cities in that era had Kaabas (Cube like structures with idols and such inside) at their centers which were magnets of pagan worship during certain months. Mecca was one of these cities. Its Kaabas held various idols and a piece of black meteorite which is still there today. Muhammad's own tribe worshiped a pagan moon God called "Allah". Mecca was well known in those times to be a place of religious tolerance. Not like today where non-Muslims are denied entry.
At one point the discource driven by Muhammad between the Meccans and his followers grew so disruptive that he actually agreed to fully recognize the local gods in addition to Allah. This thrilled the Meccans as they were a polytheistic group to begin with. But it did not sit well with the followers of Muhammad and as he saw his followers start to stray he made an incredulous move to resecure his minions. In a dramatic stroke he proclaimed that Satan had possessed him and spoke blasphemy through the prophet. This event became known as "The Satanic Verses".
Things turned pretty crappy after that. The Meccans heaped scorn down on Muhammad. They made fun of his humble beginnings and his now claim to be prophet of the one true God. The muslim followers of Muhammad began to inflict violence on the citizenry. And as his final, stupid act Muhammad signed a war treaty with the Medinans (a city far North of Mecca) against the city of Mecca. The Meccans had enough. They decided to capture Muhammad and kill him. By sure luck and trickery he escaped capture and fled to Medina. This is what has now become the holy trek repeated by Muslims known as the Hijra.
For the sake of expediancy I am going to skip forward quickly with just narrative of what transpires up to the next part of our screenplay. In Medina Muhammad turns ruthless and aims his minions at the heart of those who'd rejected him, the Meccans. He orders attacks on Meccan caravans during their holy months. Knowing that Mecca relied heavily on the trade and tourism that pilgrimages to their Kaabal brought during these months, he surely meant to cripple the city as much as possible. These attacks funded both the coffers of Muhammad and brought him new converts. By conveniently receiving instructions from Allah Muhammad now turned his before peaceful religion, that borrowed a great deal from Christian and Jewish theology, into a machine of plunder and murder. It was now divined permissible to murder, rape, and enslave for the glory of Allah. Many in Medina were predisposed to all these things and the strength of Muhammad's numbers grew exponentially. Finally the Meccans, who hadn't been pursuing Muhammad in Medina by the way, had enough of this plundering and killing. They sent out the Meccan army to protect their caravans. Muhammad sent his zealots to meet them in the Battle of Badr.
After defeating the Meccans at the Battle of Badr Muhammad set out to divide and conquer the three Jewish tribes of Medina. At first he decieved them by saying that Christians, Jews, and Muslims could all find the path to salvation through their own faiths. It was at this time that he actually had his own people bowing in the direction of Jerusalem. This gave him some in roads to the Jewish communities. After amassing enough power in those communities Muhammad then used trumped up charges to put his followers onto the Jews. The first tribe was driven from their property on the excuse that one of them had made harassing statements to a Muslim woman. The second tribe was pushed out after Muhammad ordered his followers to kill several of their prominent citizens. Then, in an act totally defied by logic, he convinced his band (who I suspect needed little encouragement to loot and plunder at this stage) that the Jewish tribe was plotting to kill the prophet. Only this time Muhammad declared that Allah had given him the revelation that the prophet was to keep all the plunder. Wonder what those early Muslims thought of being cheated out of their booty by an act of God eh?
Now we arrive at the jumping point for the next part of our script. The massacre of the Banu Quyrayza tribe of Jews at Medina:
EXT. GATES LEADING INTO JEWISH SETTLEMENT AT MEDINA - DAY
Hundreds of Muslim warriors gather round at the gates of a Jewish settlement on the outskirts of Medina. Muhammad sits atop a white stallion at the front of his small army. He looks to his left where HAMZA, one of his strongest men, is holding his sword at his side.
Hamza, I want you to go to the rear
and order fifty men to dig a trench,
two feet wide by a hundred feet in
length, just outside the city
walls. Then return to me. I shall
be in the courtyard of these Jewish
swine. Let no one else know of what
you are doing.
HAMZA
(without hesitation)
As you command, Allah’s apostle, so
shall it be done!
Hamza pulls his reins hard to the left and moves back in the ranks. WOOD CREAKING comes from behind the gate and two Muslim men holding swords in their hands push the gates apart. Muhammad makes a gesture over his head and the first two lines of his army begins to follow him into the courtyard.
INT. SETTLEMENT COURTYARD
Inside the settlement walls is a large courtyard with a central well. Houses circle the courtyard with small walking paths leading in between to outer avenues. There are probably five hundred homes here. Already there is about fifty Muslims on foot holding prisoners of various ages. As Muhammad enters one pulls a man from his kneeling position and brings him to the prophet. The
man raises his head to look up at Muhammad on the horse. This is the settlement leader, EPHRAIM.
So, you thought you could offer aid
to the Meccans in their attempt to
take Medina from me?
We had no choice. You have already
stolen the land and property of the
other two Jewish tribes here in
Medina. When you declared all of
Medina as yours we knew it to be
only a matter of time before your
hordes found their way here.
Muhammad jerks in anger.
You won’t even try to deny it. Why
should we grant you any mercy at
all. Your men are cowards. Allah
rewards the brave and righteous. It
took less than a hundred of my men
to capture your entire settlement.
You are not even men. You are pigs. The
followers of Allah do not steal. We are
granted property by the almighty.
Ephraim looks up and boldly stares the prophet in the eye.
We abide by the terms of your
offer to surrender. You promised
free passage so long as we did not
fight and did not try to take
anything of value with us. Our aim
is to save the lives of our people,
nothing more, nothing less.
Hamza comes racing into the courtyard. He moves close to Muhammad so as to prevent others from hearing. He leans in close to the prophet.
(whispering)
The men have started already. They
should be finished in no more than
an hour, Allah’s apostle.
Hamza sits back up straight and Muhammad nods his acknowledgement.
My warrior tells me that our people
have cleared a path for yours to
leave. But, this is what I require
to be sure no treachery is made by
your people. Your children and
women will stay here with my men.
All males over the age of puberty
will be led out fifty at a time
from your gates. When we see them
leave Medina we shall summon
another fifty. After all the men
are a safe distance from the city
we shall release your women and
children.
Ephraim looks uncomfortable with this.
Why can you not just release us
all. This doesn’t make any sense
whatsoever.
Muhammad shifts on his horse irritated.
These terms are merely to protect
my men. You may accept them or I
will order them to start killing
your women. Is that what you’d
like?
Ephraim again bows his head submissively.
No, I understand. We shall do as
you ask.
Good, then you shall lead the first
group and I shall go with you.
Muhammad’s men start separating the Men and older boys from the women and Muhammad herds Ephraim into the group. The horsemen push the men out of the gate and towards the
town exit.
EXT. COUNTRYSIDE BEYOND MEDINA - THE DEATH DITCH
The Jewish men are lined up in front of the ditch. They have been forced into kneeling positions with their hands bound behind their backs. Each man has his head held in bowed position by a Muslim. Muhammad sits astride his horse at the end of the ditch where EPHRAIM is kneeling.
(Getting off his horse and
drawing his sword)
Stupid pig of a Jew, you really
thought we’d permit any of you
backstabbers to live? I shall kill
every man you have ever befriended!
Muhammad lops Ephraim’s head off in one mighty stroke. It falls into the ditch. Before the body even has time to fall over he kicks it in the back and it joins the head.
Kill them all. Then send a
messenger to get the next group.
He mounts his horse and whirls around heading back to the settlement.
INT. SETTLEMENT COURTYARD
Prophet, we are ready for the last
of them now.
Muhammad nods and strides from the doorway, across the courtyard, and grabs the man held tightly by his young bride, RAYHANA.
Go on man, the sooner you get out
of here the sooner you and she can
be back together.
Muhammad flings the young man out into the courtyard where the rest of the Jewish men are starting to be gathered by the Muslims. Rayhana tries to go to her husband but Muhammad
grabs her about the waist and pulls her back to him.
(Laughing drunkenly)
And don’t you worry. The prophet
will take good care of your bride
until the two of you are reunited.
The men are unceremoniously herded out and Muhammad drags the girl kicking and screaming back across the courtyard and through the doorway he had stood in shortly before. He kicks
the door shut.
INT. SMALL JEWISH HOME - CANDLE LIT
Muhammad has Rayhana pinned with her back against the dining table in the center of the room. He is wild eyed with drink and lust. Her blouse is torn off one shoulder and there is blood at the corner of her mouth.
You said no harm would come to us.
And none shall, my dear, as soon as
you stop fighting. You should feel
privileged. Allah has chosen you to
please his prophet.
But I am married. You sent my
husband out just a short time ago.
Are you not a man of God?
Rayhana tries to wiggle away which just seems to make her attacker more intent.
(evilly)
Your husband is dead bitch! You are
a widow. And as such I take you as
my concubine according to the law
of Allah!
Muhammad punches her in the face, hard. Then he grabs her by the hair and uses it to spin her around violently. He slams her head and upper body onto the table bending her over.
CUT TO:
EXT. COUNTRYSIDE BEYOND MEDINA - THE DEATH DITCH - DARK
Fires light up the night sky along the death ditch. Rayhana’s husband is being bound. The Muslim handling him kicks the back of his knees forcing him to kneel. He grabs the young
man’s hair and forces his head to bow.
CUT TO:
INT. SMALL JEWISH HOME - CANDLE LIT
Muhammad reaches down and grabs hold of Rayhana’s skirts. He tears them up over her head as she whimpers in agony.
CUT TO:
EXT. COUNTRYSIDE BEYOND MEDINA - THE DEATH DITCH - DARK
The Muslim draws his long curved blade and raises it skyward.
CUT TO:
INT. SMALL JEWISH HOME - CANDLE LIT
Muhammad unfastens his pants with one hand as he holds Rayhana down on the table with his other arm across the back of her neck.
CUT TO:
EXT. COUNTRYSIDE BEYOND MEDINA - THE DEATH DITCH - DARK
The Muslim warrior slams the blade downward cleaving through flesh and bone. His victim’s head rolls into the ditch.
CUT TO:
INT. SMALL JEWISH HOME - CANDLE LIT
Muhammad rams himself deep inside Rayhana. We hear her SCREAMS.
FADE OUT:
At least one woman was beheaded in the slaughter of the Jews episode as well. We know this because Aisha tells us about it in Ibn Ishaq 691. The woman lost her mind after witnessing the carnage of her family being slaughtered. Little Aisha had become so numb to the barbarism that she wrote about the woman's decapitation and wondered:
"I shall never forget my wonder at her good spirits and her loud laughter when all the while she knew that she would be killed."
I have not written this piece merely to bad mouth Muhammad. I have written it in hopes of waking some folks to the reality that is Islam and of its roots. To quote a very good site for Islamic research for westerners The Religion of Peace.com:
That sound at all familiar to you? The time is now to start sharing your knowledge. Do not let creeping Sharia use the PC of your country to conquer all.

Wow!
Not liking the religion of peace to much these days?
Islam is a backward regression. Tea With Terrorist is a great book that exposed Islam.
Well done dude.
Can't see this being anymore offensive than the Danish Cartoons at all.
Ah Fafnir,
I was really expecting more flowery, eloquent prose to flow from your keyboard pen. But, I'll give ya a pass this time, even though I have seen how exquisitely you can meld the language into mental imagery. To be honest I was hoping for more critique on the script itself than the controversial, perhaps offensive, nature of the post. Was it believable? Did it lend itself to an easy visualization by the reader much as if they'd been watching the movie? Ah well...
To be honest I hope it is offensive. The man was offensive. That was kind of the point.

I find myself incensed anew as you recount the massacre of the Jews at the hands of that barbarian, that filthy savage, that sub-human vessel of garbage water. We all know the story, or most of us do, but seeing it in the minds eye as it might play out on the big screen brings a visceral, almost tangible quality to the horrors of the rise of the "prophet Mohamed" and the religion of death. This is a movie I wold see. This is a movie I would promote.
I'm bumping this post because I feel it is just so prescient.
atrocious beginnings is the origin of every religion "stemming" from Christianity or Judaism - if you examine the beginnings of the Mormons, you won't find very much that's different and to be entirely honest, even the Christian leadership has it's hands dirty post-apostolic phase. If you look at the Crusades or the "great conquest" of the American West, you'll find the religion being a beacon of all things ungodly and all manner of selfishness. The roots of a thing are illuminating, but there is horror and carnage in the history of us all.
Make no mistakes, the roots of Islam and the fruits which it bears are not the sweetness that it's disguised as, but if this gains press - which it certainly should - then so should the true history of the Christian church in all it's ungodliness.
Well anon,
Quite frankly, I was waiting for that response. Not only are you wrong, you are dead wrong. First let's examine the Mormon comparison you have made. I am assuming that you are attempting to equate the Mountain Meadows massacre to the atrocities of Muhammad. Although a truly sad chapter in Mormon history your equation does not hold water. First, the orchestrator of that atrocity was not the founder of Mormonism. It was the adopted son of Brigham Young, John D. Lee. And second, Mr. Lee was put to death by firing squad some twenty years later for his contribution to the slaughter of a hundred and forty innocent settlers. Lastly, this story has been portrayed by Hollywood in a film entitled "September Dawn". In fact, one of my favorite actors, Jon Voight, starred in that film.
Now we'll deal with some of the inaccuracies in the rest of your comment. There is no way in hell you can try to equate Christ to Muhammad. The two are polar opposites of one another. So, rather than make that stretch of the imagination you try to paint Christianity as a whole with the Muhammad brush. This too falls short on many levels. There is a huge difference between committing atrocities and trying to use the cover of religion to justify your actions, and being the founder of a religion that sees atrocity as its path to global domination. Christ was a man of peace regardless of how else you view him. Muhammad was a monster and a pervert.
You try to say that the history of Christianity should be told. Have you any idea of how many films have been made about the Inquisition? Goya's Ghosts is one that is out currently. There are thousands of others. They range from cheap B horror movies that use the torture of that period as their horror base to huge epic Hollywood drama. There are also many films dealing with the use of religion to justify the slaughter of nonconforming North American Indian tribes as the white man colonized westward. The point of the post still holds true. And I believe you have missed it entirely in your effort at moral relativism. Where are the films on Islam and Muhammad? Where?
Hollywood betrays it's politically correct cowardice in this. And you, sir, betray your cowardice of character when you try to camouflage an apparent disdain for religion as a whole by equating the actions of Islam to that of Christianity.

Lew, you must have read "The Life and Religion of Mohammed The Prophet of Arabia" by Rev. J.L. Menezes. (Originally published in 1912). Your script reads exactly like his book. If you can stick close to historical accuracy, it will be powerful. I only wonder if you will find financial backers. Hey, Hollywood wouldn't even bankroll The Passion, Gibson had to finance that blockbuster by himself. (Was that ever a good idea and money maker!). This one will be too, although not so much in the Middle East. All the best. A new fan.
Lew, I knew that this was a site where my statement would be misconstrued and that's part of why I made it. You see, I didn't make any comparison at all between Mohamed and Christ - I am a Christian and I realize that Christ not only refused to advocate war, but he gave himself up peacefully, telling those that would protect him to "get thou behind me Satan," but the Christian church (which is what I mentioned regarding history) has been used as a tool for propoganda and all manner of ill use.
I can't truly defend my statements regarding the Mormons as I've done very little research in that area, but it's public perception (I won't say "public knowledge" becuase I don't know if any of that information is true) that their origins are steeped in violence (read "Sherlock Holmes: A Study in Scarlett").
My point was not to say that you are incorrect in your reflections on Islam, as I believe you are correct, the danger I would like to avoid is the act of looking down on the flaws of what others believe while ignoring our own flaws.
If Muslims study their scriptures (generally) only as well as Christians study ours, then they likely are virtually ignorant of the origin of their prophet. How many Christians are aware that Peter and Paul had a fight over whether or not Gentile Christians need to follow Jewish law? That one of Israels judges, Jephthah (Judges 11) sacrificed his daughter to God in thanks for a victory over his enemies? That King Saul sought advice from the prophet Samuel through the hiring of a witch?
To focus only on the flaws of others, regardless of how flawed they may be, is to simply allow similar flaws to overtake our own lives.
Anon,
First I'd like to know how you "knew" your post would be misconstrued. But, that aside, I did not say that you tried to compare Christ to Muhammad. If you think I did I suggest you re-read my earlier post. What I did say was that you were demonstrating a disdain for religion as a whole. And, I do not think you have been misconstrued in the slightest in that regard. It also is obvious to me that you have not talked with many Muslims. I have, both on the internet and a few in person. Every one that I have ever talked to can give you the history of the prophet Muhammad verbatim. They study the Hadith and Sira on a basis equivalent to the study of the Q'uran. And, shamefully, they spend much more time in study of their holy texts than either Jews or Christians.
I also have not denied that atrocities have been committed in the name of Christianity. What I have stated again and again, and will repeat once more, is that we have been inundated through the years with that information via the media of film. The statements you have made about Mormons are just wrong. I'm not Mormon but believe in truth.
Now, let me lay the truth on you brother. The big difference between Christianity and Islam is in their founders. Christianity was established as a religion of love, peace, and forgiveness. Islam was established as a means to an end for a man that was decrepit in every part of his soul that makes a man human. The two are as polar in their opposition as I've already told you Christ and Muhammad were. The atrocities committed throughout history by Christians are a reflection of their failure to follow the tenets of faith lain down by the very figure they worship as God. The atrocities committed by Muslims throughout history, and that continue on today, are expressions of faith in practice of the tenets set up by Muhammad.
To acknowledge the source of an evil is not to concentrate on the flaws of others. In order to defend oneself from an adversary it is first necessary to understand that adversary. And again I ask you...where are the films about Muhammad....where?
And, I'd like to add, thank you for the conversation. You'll not find me one that is fearful of honest debate.

My assumption was that this is something that is important to you - people who care enough to fight tend to be more easily offended and therefore, they often see disagreement when it's not intended.
Thank you for a great post and communication
Perhaps you were right in your assumption. Although I think you may have worded your reply to feed into that assumption. If I read your post the wrong way then I stand corrected. Regardless, more debate on this issue will always be a good rather than a bad thing.
