I don't think you've read it. I have. It's not about violence any more
than
is the bible.


Sorry about your misconceptions. I lived for nearly 20 years in the
largest Moslem nation in the world and read the Koran several times.
Your statement that it is no more violent then the Christian Bible is
true however the Bible is rather emphatic about things - thou shall
not suffer a witch to live, etc. Read the return to the promised land
after the Egyptian interlude for examples of God's will.
Cheers,

I withdraw my comment that you haven't read it, but I stand by your
confirmation that the bible is no different. If that's the case, then it
seems like my original statement isn't far off. Most Christians don't
believe the bible advocates violence. I believe that most Muslims don't
believe the Koran advocates violence either.

Are you a Muslim? If not, then did you feel yourself to be in danger? FYI,
I've read that many of that religion are offended by the use of Moslem vs.
Muslim. Have you heard of this?

I found a reference on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muslim.
