What do you think about what he has to say about Muhammad (PBUH)?
"LAMARTINE, the renowned historian speaking on the essentials of human greatness wonders:
"If greatness of purpose, smallness of means and astounding results are the three criteria of human genius, who could dare to compare any great man in modern history with Muhammad? The most famous men created arms, laws and empires only. They founded, if anything at all, no more than material powers which often crumbled away before their eyes.

This man moved not only armies, legislation, empires, peoples and dynasties, but millions of men in one-third of the then inhabited world; and more than that, he moved the altars, the gods, the religions, the ideas, the beliefs and souls....his forbearance in victory, his ambition, which was entirely devoted to one idea and in no manner striving for an empire; his endless prayers, his mystic conversations with God, his death and his triumph after death; all these attest not to an imposture but to a firm conviction which gave him the power to restore a dogma. This dogma was two-fold, the unity of God and the immateriality of God; the former telling what God is, the latter telling what God is not; the one overthrowing false gods with the sword, the other starting an idea with the words."

Those who think right, always see the good qualities of Muhammad (PBUH). His followers now are in millions, as of when he started with few. He is the leader of the fastest growing religion in the world, and which will be the leading religion in no time. People still follow his word that he has said hundreds of years ago, and they are still valid. His miracle, The Quraan, is still not fully discovered as new facts and beliefs are found every day.

Great ad for Islam. I've seen it posted all over the web recently. I can't help but have heard of him.
Want to track down the newest push for Islam? Look at the dates of posting. See how many other sites have the same date or close to it. This is the work of small groups, blanket posting.
Its SPAM for ISLAM!
I think they think this is going to change things in their favor. It's kind of silly, but, hey, doesn't matter much.
Makes all of you want to join, right? Islam just gets more and more appealing every day!
What is really sad is that if they just stopped all of this, concentrated on the revolution already begun within Islam for freedom and freedom of religion, they would be welcomed back with open arms. Islam has so much to offer, but it turned it's back on the West, then like some homicidal brother, like Cain, have turned back to kill their brother.
Not this time.

I read about what Lamartine said and many other people think he's great. I agree that he's the greatest person :D
