“Had it been the object or the intention of Jesus Christ to establish a new religion, he would undoubtedly have written the system himself, or procured it to be written in his life time.

Thomas Paine“We need a new religion, a global religion, based on one simple principle: live and let live.”
Marty Rubin“Muhammad was not yet establishing a new religion”
he was calling for sweeping social reforms. He was not yet preaching monotheism“Not the last time in Western history, the revolutionaries armed themselves with a new religion to steel themselves for greater outrageous.”
