ADNAN Yes, you are right. It's not necessarily a Muslim greeting. But since even Muslims who do not speak Arabic use it universally, it can be called a Muslim greeting. "Wa 'alaikumus salam" means "And upon you is the peace." This Muslim guy wants help from an atheist, Farrell Till, to refute messianic "prophecies," even when the same atheist would also reject the so-called Muhammad "prophecies" in the Bible. Strange, isn't it? Would this guy explain why he accepts the so-called Biblical "prophecies" referring to Muhammad, but wants an atheist to refute Christian prophecies? I guess it's because I have made Farrell Till pretty famous among Muslims because of my web page: http://idt.net/~balboa19/ For messianic prophecies, this guy can read "A Debate Between Jochen Katz + Rob Lundberg vs Farrell Till" on my page. http://idt.net/~balboa19/chris/prophecies.htm and "Why Should I Accept the Bible?" http://idt.net/~balboa19/chris/whybibl.htm
