It's like the only voice everyone hears is their own.
Seaver posted wonderful quotes from the Qu'ran out of context. In response and because of Ustww's polite invitation, I posted quotes from the New Testament out of context. I know what "I came not to send peace, but a sword." means to me and most Christians, but to a fringe few it could be used to justify the killing of non-Christians....oh say like the Qu'ran is used by the extreeme minority to try and excuse their acts.
Blaming the Qu'ran is like blaming a tool for the way that it is used. Imagine if someone was beating people to death with an olive branch (there's some symbolism for you). Would the olive branch be evil? THE MINORITY of muslims might try to use the Qu'ran to excuse their violence, but THE MAJORITY of Muslims accept a peaceful understanding of the Qu'ran, and do not condone the acts of the violent few.
