So neither the view that it's a comparatively new religion or that it is a very old one is wrong - it just depends on how you look at it.

Yes, I am aware of these views regarding Islamic history.
A poster mentioned it but her point was being completely disregarded and slammed by other posters, and as it was something I had heard of before, I posted it.
Perhaps you should have addressed this to the posters that refused to consider the two different views on this.....and insisted that they were 100% correct.
