Not less immoral by our standards. But he's not an example of immorality compared to all the other religious founders or revered leaders of the time. As this thread shows. It was a worldwide barbaric society by our standards. Roughly at the same time, the Franks rose to power. Using the same means as Mohammed. Charlemagne, the slaughterer of Saxons, lived and rules a short hundred years later. And he's highly revered in religious history. And one of the reasons why he slaughtered the Saxons was the fact they were stubborn heathens.

So there's no examplary immorality there, compared to what others brought upon us.
