You understand that which you have been led to understand by people with agendas.

And who might they be? Come on now, spell it out. Tell me why in precise detail why what I know isn't what I know.

"And who might they be?"

Try this, one of the few times that I see eye to eye with Pat.

Or try reading the materials related to Islamic extremism posted on this site.

What the Wahabbi extremists are trying to accomplish, is to create an atmosphere of world-wide repression of the Islamic faith, the parsed bits of the Holy Qur'an that are constantly passed around on the Internet, are the same parsed bits that Islamic extremist clerics teach to their illiterate pupils, their goal, as Pat says, being to instigate a world-wide war, which would unify Muslims, and create a Caliphate with Wahabbi extremists at its head.

I could parse the Old Testament, and make it appear to people who are not acquainted with Christianity, that Christians are every bit as evil and violent, but we know that we are not, so we can easily deflect the arguments. We are not versed in the Qur'an, and what we don't realize, is that those parsed bits that we read are part of a bigger story, most of them instructing Muslims to fight against anyone who wishes to suppress their practice of Islam, or to repel invaders.
