Pretending the repeatedly plain language...
Plain to YOU. YOU are interpreting what you read, and now your calling that interpretation, "plain" and saying any who dont agree with you are dishonest....
Id really love for someone else to respond to you, I'm surely not the only one noticing your nonsense.
The thing being interpreted clearly commands rape, murder, slavery, abortion... There is no moral defense for this.
Again, your sayin it clearly means something when hundreds of millions disagree. What is clear to you is crazy to others.
Also, you believe abortion is deplorable amd immoral? Explanation of this possible?

Plain to anyone who isn't denying reality. Denying reality doesn't change the realness of it.

It's not nonsense to defend reality against those who wish to pretend the Bible isn't a book of blood followed by a death cult.
Again, your sayin it clearly means something when hundreds of millions disagree. What is clear to you is crazy to others.
Hundreds of millions of people thinking 2+2=5 doesn't make it true. Pretending the Bible doesn't command deplorable things doesn't change the fact that it absolutely does so multiple times in very plain language, no matter how many people believe it.

I've no need to explain something I never said.
Drake - I don't think cofty had only ISIS in mind, rather, I'm pretty sure he meant most of the Muslim world. This includes KSA, Pakistan, Iran, Yemen, Afghanistan, Jordan, Egypt, Sudan, northern Nigeria, Somalia ...
Oh you know what I think you're right.
so I'll say this, as I've said before, defending islam isn't really my goal. However... Cofty and others have said most Muslims haven't even read the Quran, and this is true, so again, how can the Quran be blamed...?
- Under the Ottoman empire, worldwide Muslim literacy rates were only 2 to 3% in the early nineteenth century.
- 6 out of 10 Muslims worldwide still cannot read (as opposed to only 2 out of 10 people in "Christendom")
- Nearly 1 in 3 people in the Arab world are illiterate, including nearly half of all women.

Now, on this page you see all the terrible things happening in the Muslim world. I say again, my interest was never in defending islam. I would draw everyone's attention to the fact that 60% of all Islam CANNOT READ. Hence they have never read the Quran. So how are we blaming the Quran, when it's not even possibly at fault?
Religion makes (and keeps) people dumb.

Omg viv... Seriously. OMFG lol. GO AWAY.
Thanks for that quote. It clearly shows that I never said abortion was deplorable. On a side note, the above chart is making a lot of sense.

The thing being interpreted clearly commands rape, murder, slavery, abortion, genocide, theft and murder. It is a deplorable thing. There is no moral defense for this.
Please... PLEASE ANYONE ELSE MAKE SENSE OF THIS TO ME
Jonathan Drake - I admitted that extremists are to blame for their actions, but pointed that the violence and killings in the Quran may be a factor. In non-ISIS areas, the violence and killings in the Quran (and Hadiths) must also be a factor.
Poor literacy levels in the Muslim World doesn't change this. They're taught various interpretations from the local imams.
