Don’t count me among the fraternity of the ignorant about the Koran. I’ve read it too. In short, there is more of a coherent story and narrative in the phone book than that beastly, horribly convoluted “Holy Book’’ of Islam.
Most people would be shocked if they knew what the Koran contained. I think most confessed muslims would be shocked, if they bothered to read it.
Again, most people have to put down the talk radio (to mix a metaphor) and realize that muslims have no more idea of what they claim to be than the average Christian knows of the Bible. If they’d bother to get to know a few muslims, they’d realize they’re harmless.
It’s the radicals who have studied Qtubism that we have to fear. They blow up airplanes and...oh, did we mention...we’re arming them in Libya? Hm! The patterns of history never change.
