Well, it started with this post from OutSyed The Box who linked this site
Got curious and waded a couple of sites and I found this gem statement on the controversial issue in the Wall Street Journal:-
“Of course Muhammad existed,” says Tilman Nagel, a scholar in Göttingen and author of a new book, “Muhammad: Life and Legend.” The Prophet differed from the flawless figure of Islamic tradition, Prof. Nagel says, but “it is quite astonishing to say that thousands and thousands of pages about him were all forged” and there was no such person.
All the same, Prof. Nagel has signed a petition in support of Prof. Kalisch, who has faced blistering criticism from Muslim groups and some secular German academics. “We are in Europe,” Prof. Nagel says. “Education is about thinking, not just learning by heart.”
“We are in Europe. Education is about thinking, not just learning by heart” – This has to be the quote of the week.
