"all Muslims are free to reflect and interpret the book given a sufficient education".

This is the basic flaw in their belief system. Its that 'interpretation' which gave birth to such obscenities as militant islam.

[Dead Dog]

Actually, I think such obscenities as militant Islam are correct interpretations. We have 1500 years of correct interpretations.

Christianity has only been used as a weapon during periods of incorrect interpretation...usually to illiterates in the middle ages.
