Anyone noticed how BBC Group-Think has started to call Mohammed...The
Prophet Mohammed? As if they would ever call Jesus...The Lord Jesus.

Great observation, but I think maybe they do that, in part, because
Mohammed is a man's name in much use throughout the world, so they
use it to differentiate the prophet from Mohammed, the used-car king.
Then again, Jesus is a pretty common name in the Spanish-speaking
world...
