    Why did the prophet Muhammad require a donkey to ascend to heaven? Why not just ascend there like everyone else?

    If Islamic veils for women are deemed by Islamic logic nessecary to prevent a woman arousing lust in a man, why are men also not enjoined to wear a burqa to prevent women and homosexuals from lusting after them?

    Why are Muslim men permitted by Islam to marry a non Muslim woman provided she submits to Islam, but a Muslim woman is not permitted to marry a non Muslim man? How do you square this with principles of universal gender equality, especially in a society like Britain?

    Why is there not a single verse in the Quran condeming rape?

    or tell us infant marriage was wrong, or something medically useful like a cure for cancer or simple like telling us to boil water to kill of harmful bacteria.  

    Yet it finds it necessary to tell us how to clean our arse with sand & grit when water is not available, and to quote Baal, more usefully 17 ways of how boiling water is used for torture by Allah.

    Why does Islam consider all cultural, philosophical, social and scientific contributions to humanity made by non Muslim individuals in non Islamic societies, from the ruminations of Buddha and Confucious, to the science of Newton and Einstein, to be manifestly jahil?

    Surely these discoveries and achievments render preposterous the idea that non Muslim societies exist in a state of barbarism, a barbarism that only Islam can alleviate?

    I know - but its all the same. They have to submit to Islam, or at least raise their children as Muslims, and the point remains - why are men allowed to marry ahl al kitab, but women are not allowed to mary Steve or Shlomo (I'll leave polytheist Sanjay out of the question for now)

    Is Muhammad uswa hasana, al Insan al-Kamil, the perfect human for eternity, the ideal Muslim?

    Should Muslims seek to emulate him? If so, would you seek to make it acceptable for 50 year old men to marry female children under the age of ten? Would you believe it acceptable to follow his rules on the acceptability of slavery? Do you believe it was wrong to abolish slavery, at least for Muslims? Also, do you believe that killing captives, regardless of their individual guilt, is acceptable? In other words, do you believe inflicting violence and death on innocent people, following the Prophet Muhammad's treatment of amongst others the Banu Qurayza, following the principles of collective punishment, part of the attributes of an ideal Muslim? Does an ideal Muslim practise and consider violent collective punishment acceptable?

    One more thing I would like to add:
    How can someone who had 9 wives (who were always fighting and jealous of each other) worthy of prophethood? How can someone be the best human being and yet treat women like sexual objects?

    -Did Allah send prophets to the Aztecs? what about ancient China? what about anywhere outside the Middle East? and if he did, why is it never mentioned in the Quran or the Hadith?

    -Why was Mohammed the last prophet? why not keep sending prophets?

    -Why doesn't Allah show us some miracles?

    -Why does Allah want to test us?

    -If Allah is omniscient, that means he knows whether anyone of us will end up in heaven or hell. If that is so, how can we really have a choice? how can we "think of" or "choose" something that is not already pre-known by God?

    -Why hasn't been any case of an amputated limb regenerating in recorded history?

    -Why is music Haram?

    -Why is chess Haram?

    -Why is fucking Haram? (specially when we have contraceptives)

    -Now that we have DNA parental identification, why can't women practice polygamy?

    -Why does Allah need us to do complicated rituals? can't he just measure the faith in our hearts?

    -Why are there congenital deformities? didn't Allah say is the Quran "we created you in the best form"?

    -Why are their famines?

    -Why are there natural disasters?

    -Why does Allah allow Satan to exist?

    -How is Mohammed's military conquests different from Israel's occupation of Palestine?

    -Why is a woman's testimony in court equal to half of the man's testimony?

    I don't know how useful these questions are. Surely, every single one of these questions can be answered with "I don't know but I have faith" which is exactly the reason why religion survives and thrives. These questions only work once the wall of faith is vulnerable.

    Having said that, an impressive list of insightful questions indeed.
