I take great umbrage to the essay “A Difference Between Words and Reality” in the Nov. 1 edition.
The writer references the Prophet Mohammed as saying, “none of you has faith until you love your [neighbor] for yourself.” Mohammed, in reality, had no love for his neighbors.
Editors have a responsibility to readers to present a balanced picture of every issue.
Where was the essay describing how Mohammed really treated his neighbors?
As a result of this deliberate omission, you failed yourself and your readers.
In the future, if you cannot present a balanced view of every issue, please do not print such journalistic swill.
