The pagan Arabs worshipped the Moon-god Allah by praying toward Mecca several times a day; making a pilgrimage to Mecca; running around the temple of the Moon-god called the Kabah; kissing the black stone; killing an animal in sacrifice to the Moon-god; throwing stones at the devil; fasting for the month which begins and ends with the crescent moon; giving alms to the poor, etc.
The Muslim's claim that Allah is the God of the Bible and that Islam arose from the religion of the prophets and apostles is refuted by solid, overwhelming archeological evidence. Islam is nothing more than a revival of the ancient Moon-god cult. It has taken the symbols, the rites, the ceremonies, and even the name of its god from the ancient pagan religion of the Moon-god. As such, it is sheer idolatry and must be rejected by all those who follow the Torah and Gospel.

Deuteronomy 4
Idolatry Forbidden
19 And when you look up to the sky and see the sun, the moon and the stars—all the heavenly array—do not be enticed into bowing down to them and worshiping things the LORD your God has apportioned to all the nations under heaven.

Anyway the Bible says that God disliked how his people and others worshiped the stars, the sun and the moon instead of God, they worshipped what he created not what he was.
Surah Fussilat, verse 37, Yusuf Ali Translation
Among His Signs are the Night and the Day, and the Sun and the Moon. Do not prostrate to the sun and the moon, but prostrate to Allah, Who created them, if it is Him ye wish to serve.

This video convinced me of the Catholic/Islam connection.
It might surprise you,...if you've got the time?

In order for this to be true the Vatican would have had to write the Koran wouldn't they? That seems like it would be a lot of work, I mean the Catholics didn't write the Bible (though they edited it) so it seems like an awful lot of trouble to go to just to forge an enemy for the crusades.
Apparently the timeline would still make sense in that the Koran wasn't written until the 600s AD and I suppose that's around the time Islam got started. So I suppose it's possible but I find it very very unlikely.

I have a hard time believing this one. I've read Rivera's claims and it just doesn't add up to me. If the Catholics created Islam to control the Middle East that plan sure did backfire.
There is much too much bad press on Alberto Rivera, I don't trust him.

Mohammed didn't need any help to create Islam, you can look around everywhere and see charismatic cult leaders writing their own "holy" books and declaring themselves to be prophets.
Some of them just fool a few hundred(David Koresh) but every so often one of them hits it big (Reverend Moon, Joseph Smith) and Mohammed hit it REAL big.
If he had help it was directly from evil spirits, not Catholics.

I don't see how uniting the Arab peoples together would be demonic sense they was alot of tribal warfare and neglect of orphans and the poor. Islam created a better social order (when followed.)
