""Christoph Luxenburg", who sought to prove that incomprehensible passages in the Koran were written in Syriac-Aramaic rather than Arabic. Luxenburg's thesis became notorious for explaining that the "virgins" provided to Islamic jihadis in paradise were only raisins."
Bummer.

...Haj Amin al-Husseini, the mufti of Jerusalem... I am not sure, but I think HE was a relative of Saddam Hussein........No, but he WAS an uncle to Yassir Arafat.

“If true, absolutely no good can come from this. Staunch believers will not back away from their beliefs, they will only become enraged. This has the potential to destabalize the world if not treated with extreme caution.
Furthermore, it will further encourage mockery of religion of all stripes in the West.”
I’m not the smartest person on this site, but i do believe what you are saying is already happening.

So Mohammed took this box and put it on the table. He asked the elders to look inside and tell what they saw. No, wait ... that was someone else.

I am not sure, but I think HE was a relative of Saddam Hussein........ He was the Uncle of Yassar Arafat, IIRC and also a die hard Nazi. The Brits should have dragged his ass back to Nuremberg after the war and made him pay for his crimes.

The Da Vinci Code offered a silly fantasy in which Opus Dei, homicidal monks and twisted billionaires chased after proof that Christianity is a hoax. - while I think that Da Vinci Code was only entertainment, this was not the premise of the book.

The Koran is as useful as toilet paper! It is a book written by men to suit their selfish and perverted agenda to control weak mindless humans who can’t decipher our Creator’s intrinsic truth. That is to live life in a positive way by understanding all humans are imperfect and therefore strive to be the best we can. That means forgiveness is divine!

Here's a hint:
REAL prophets climb mountains to be closer to God,

Luxenburg's thesis became notorious for explaining that the "virgins" provided to Islamic jihadis in paradise were only raisins. So, those posting the Helen Thomas photo on the Islamic "virgin" threads were actually correct?

If true, absolutely no good can come from this. Staunch believers will not back away from their beliefs, they will only become enraged. This has the potential to destabalize the world if not treated with extreme caution. I disagree. The good that can come from this is in setting the liberal academics against the muslim hordes who want to subdue and conquer us. And what are the muzzies really going to do if this upsets them anyway? Destroy some skyscrapers in New York? Behead some infidels? Attack our troops? In case you haven't noticed, THEY are already at war with us. I really don't give a flying damn about what upsets them at this point. I want them to act like civilized people or I want them removed from the earth. That simple. They don't get a pass on having their religion examined the same way they shred ours and anyone else's.

After reading the article, I was not impressed, nor is this going to “shake” the moslem world.
If I got it right, they have found some variations in the Koran text over time, whereas moslems believe every detail of the text is from God and beyond debate.
Big woopee doo, if you think this is going to shake the moslem world you don’t know much about religious faith.
