A potentially stupid question about Khomeini

Not a big question...

Whenever a Christian missionary or whoever wants to 'refute' Islam they quote supposedly from a book of wisdoms by the Ayatollah. The only 'quotes' I've seen are apparently in favor of pederasty, bestiality, etc. Is the Tahrirolvasyleh a real book, are the quotes real? Is it a real book with deliberately bogus and unflattering quotes?

And as long as I'm asking dumb questions...

Is it possible that George W Bush is the Mahdi? LOL

Although I'm somewhat biased (being a sunni), I'd say that was like "refuting" Christianity by quoting Pat Robertson on ethnic cleansing.

The Ayatollah did come out with some whack fatwa as he grew older, I wouldn't be suprised if the quotes were real. That's not to say all shia agree with them, of course, or that he didn't write contrary fatwa..

No. Wrong name and lack of beard.
