Having read the Koran - once, some time ago-

I applaud you. I tried it once and just couldn't do it.

the trick is to learn to ignore the obligatory gibberish: "peace be upon his name" "the benevolent, blahblahblah" et omnia generis alia.
Then, one must harden one's heart to the sheer brutality of the ideas expressed.
Then, one must retain the flexibility to twist one's mind along the adaptations of the revelations, from "early" to "late", and as situations during the campaign dictated.
So, yeah, it ain't nothin' nice, that's for certain.
