Burgy,
I really hate to say something like this to you, Burgy and the rest , But I
have a copy of the Koran in my bookshelf and I read it many years ago. I also
reviewed some tabbed pages today and in the past few weeks.
Frankly, it (The Koran) scared the --- (Something Smelly) -- out of me on
first reading and it still does. I read about how those who think that Jesus
is the "Son of God' are the enemies of Allah, friends of Satan and how they
are "infidels." (Guess what?: that means us Christians!)
I further read what "Allah" considers the appropriate response to "infidels"
(Kill them). All this comes from the Koran.
It is one thing to attribute "sweetness and light" to all other religions of
the world and then to totally ignore what they say.
I do not condone Falwell and his outright aggressiveness.
Also I do think that uniformed sweetness and light opinion is unjustified by
those who are "uneducated" in the writings of a given religion.
Hitler was a nice guy too, since he was a "Christian" . Ever read his
writings?
We have to be as wise as serpents -- in addition to being as innocent as
doves.
It may force some thinking to come up with it --- and neither the canned
philosophies of the right or of the left will suffice.
This post will not appreciated, I am certain.
IMHO.
