My post was in response to interpretations by questionable sites.
Did I say you said they did?
it certainly appears that way, you replied to and quoted my post.
I commented on your post, I did not reply to it, don't flatter yourself.
commented/replied, no difference really, that is what it looked like to me. The bit up top that says reply to and then quoting my post, indicates that you did.
I don't seek or need flattery.

None of them are factual, we rely on them to interpret what they mean, don't we? as neither the Qoran or the Bible are written in English.
I don't think that the people who are using the Qoran to justify their actions are reading it in English, but rather in the language in which it is written.

I agree but then we have such barstardisation of the book by vested interests, imams, mullas, clerics, shieks and any other self proclaimed prophet , who knows what interpretation they are being brainwashed with.
There are some pretty awful verses in ii.
If they rewrote it ifor the modern era like the bible was and all the really violent stuff is left in the old testament and not relevant for the 21st century, that would bring this religion up into the modern era and out of the dark ages but many muslims in poor countries have no education and they are easily gulled into whatever the reader wants them to hear.

It was in the list is the point I made, not the spelling.
