So I gather you have NOT read this PoS.

The word you are floundering around trying to spell is "hypocrisy" and could be applied to those claiming to know something about the Koran when they haven't even read it.

BTW the religious books of the other religions: Hindu, Buddhist, Jewish all contain great stores of wisdom and flights of great insight into the human condition as well as many lines of great poetic beauty. Not as much as the Bible but some. None of the above is in the Koran.

It reads just as you would suppose something collecting the sayings of an illiterate caravan thief would read. Crude, ugly stupid twisting of the earlier Torah and Bible. Without a shred of wisdom or insight or beautiful poetry. Read it or stop complaining when those who have point out truths about it. It is a complete waste of paper.

I forgot to spell check, so shoot me. As to "knowing" about the Koran, I never made that claim. All I said was that it was someone's Holy book and it is smart guy. You may not think its holy, but that's a long way from proving its not holy. I guess I didn't know one's holy book had to have stories. What about pictures? Does that make a book more holy?

Once I again I refer you to this quote: "I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods [religions, holy books, etc.], you will understand why I dismiss yours." - Stephen Roberts

What do you say to those who claim yourholy book is not holy and only worth ass wipe.
