Gosh... more zombie talk...

Something to consider:

If comes a religion that acts a compulsive lier in order to gather its followers, such religion is Islam, here is just a small compilation of the most used (you probably already saw them by the media).

Please note, this article expresses what Islam is indeed, what its books says, not the actions of Muslims. Actually I found most of Muslims to believe these "lies" and put them to practice unaware that they're doing the opposite of what their religion says (what is good by the way).

Lie #1 - Islam means peace

Half-true, but a half-true is a full lie; Islam, Islam comes from the ROOT word in Arabic SA’LA’MA which contains the following 5 words:

Surrender, Submission, Obedience, Purity/Sincerity and Peace.

or in general terms "Peace by submission", what Romans called a PAX or in more simple terms is like a bully says to not bully you if you do what he wants. This is no "peace" at all.

Lie #2 - Christ is a prophet of Islam

Another half-truth, it refers Christ, or Iça as they call him, as being a prophet... but nothing else, the only reference with more attention is to say he's not son of God, nor Muhammad's doctrines are compatible with Jesus'. So why they call him a prophet if they don't seam to give a damn about Jesus' teachings?

Lie #3 - Allah means God

Yes it does... on Aramaic. The problem here is that Muhammad didn't speak Aramaic, he spook Arabic where "Allah" at his time means absolutely nothing, the word didn't even exist.

Lie #4 - Islam allows free thinking

Islam is a religion... no religion actually does allow it.

Lie #5 - Islam is Universal

No, it was made in Middle East and reflects a VII Century life on Middle East. Even Muhammad's teachings quite recurring uses camels and fauna from that part of the globe.

Lie #6 - Islam is pro-equality

This is a huge lie, Islam is based and supports many kinds of hierarchies with high levels of discrimination and enslavement.

Lie #7 - Islam isn't racist

Muhammad was, he compared the black people's head with raisins. Also Islam makes note that Muhammad was white.

Lie #8 - You can try Islam and if you don't like you can quit

The penalty for leaving Islam is death.

Lie #9 - Islam allows Christians and Jews to live free within Muslim controlled countries

No, they don't. They do under a tax and several cut off of citizenship rights. They were actually the predecessors of Hitler's idea for the Jews by forcing Jews and Christians who live under Islamic regions to wear yellow (Jew) or blue (Christian) badges.

Lie #10 - Taxes may be lower with Islam

Yes... they only ask 10% (20% for non-Muslims), the problem is that 10 or 20% tax is addressed to religion, not to the public benefice or infrastructures.

Lie #11 - Islam is about charity

Charity is one of their 5 pillars alright... but Muslim charity can only be addressed to other Muslims. In order to a Muslim to aid a non-Muslim this last one has to convert first (or die starve) - This ain't charity, this is take advantage of other people's misery.

Also we have Reverse lies, things Muslims claim to be there but aren't.

Reverse Lie #1 - You can't draw Muhammad

Such rule is nowhere.

Reverse Lie #2 - Mecca is a saint place and you must pray towards it

No it isn't and no you don't. Muhammad cursed all those who make their prophet's graves places of worship so why make his own grave a place of worship?
