Just make sure the pages are soft, rough pages make lousy toilet paper..
Laugh out loud funny!
Look for Awad at the Improv.
Let me point this out.
1. There are three books to the essential life of a Muslim....the Triology. So just having the Quran....won’t cut it.
2. Note as you read the Quran (you should put some effort into this)...it’s been edited over hundreds of years ago to put the longest ‘verses’ at the front and shortest at the end.....which means there is no coherent story...kinda like taking a Hemingway classic and mixing up the lines so there is no way to grasp the story. You have to have that scholar guy standing there....to get the mix.
3. Duality is the essential way of telling the message. You can say some quote at some point that says ‘love your neighbors’, which forty pages later is replaced by a quote of ‘annihilate your neighbors’. The last quote outweighs the first quote, in case you don’t get.
4. Finally, maybe it’s just me, but it just seems like sixty-odd percent of the Quran repeats Muhammad’s name...God only gets mentioned ten-percent of the time. And this whole thing about artwork and use of drawings/cartoons, as you get to the actual quote....is some quote that goes back to the angel Gabriel. It wasn’t what God said to Muhammad....but what Gabriel said. Too many Muslims end up with the wrong understanding of what the book says and what some interpretation is stuck on something.
Don't believe me? Just ask Charlie Habdo.
Free Korans! Puppy training paper!!!
So let me get this straight:
They’re giving away free toilet paper, right?
To be sure, the book has commands to violence. The Christian Bible contains violence too. But here’s the difference: What Christian major denominations, sub-sects or even way out there whack-a-doodle cults are promoting strict adherence to the literal text to “take an eye for an eye” or whatever?
Versus
How many organized, well financed, international major Muslim sects, sub-sects and/or whack-a-doodle cults are out there with extremely high levels of devout fervor, *PASSIONATELY* demanding stoning, chopping off hands and heads, and are otherwise stuck in the 12th century, literal-text and *WILL* want to kill you if you tell them to knock it off?
That’s the biggest difference I see and that’s enough. I’m sure there are volumes that could be written about the other glaring differences.
CAIR...a leading US civil rights organization?
CAIR... a leading ISLAMIC rights organization!
I’ve read it. It stinks.
