The Quaran is not read by moslems but recited - it is recited in arabic - 20% of moslems speak arabic as their first language - It is against the teachings of the quaran to say "but" when speaking of the Quaran, ie - Mohammed said that "but" it can be seen as this.... thus, you are not allowed to question the teachings - therefore, reading and analyzing the Quaran is for non-muslims - reciting the Quaran is for Muslims

Sometimes fear is good, its natures way of telling you to be alert of something. Fear is what keeps you from picking up a snake of you happend to come by one, its good for you Use your instincts for all their worth, they are there for a reason.
It is not fear that keeps me from picking up that snake, it's wisdom, knowledge.
You do not have to fear something, to respect it.
Replace that fear with Love, and back it up with a .44 Magnum, in case the other side don't reciprocate.
Fear was good in the stone age, kept you alive. Or during the inquisition, fear was useful for the Church, to help keep the minions in line.
Now we just look it up on the Internets, and know better.

That Christians try to promote their religion as peaceful on one hand; while on the other demonize others religious beliefs.
Westboro Baptist Church will be a good place to start.

Well I have yet to read every post. I think it is pointless to be against a religion many don't know much about. I'm an Atheist and it is ridiculous for me to bash someone's religion. Yes we can disagree with each other on why we chose to follow our paths in life. But making them seem evil down right evil for person doing it.

I have never used the word "evil" for any religion, I'm just stating facts as I see it.

Not at all. I just like to study about religions and see what makes believers tick. Of course I do love to get reactions with people asking about my signature links.
