Re: Islam: A Religion of Lies...

But progressive, moderate Muslims would explain some of their own scriptures in the same way and say they were not meant to be taken literally. The point is both Christianity and Islam can be practiced in an extreme fashion with killing and the whole deal or more moderately, with love and peace. The person who is doing the practicing will determine if they are going to use those verses to literally beat their wives or if they meant something in some specific context not meant for today or whatever. I suspect if we had a moderate Muslim amongst us, they would suggest that is not to be taken literally just as many biblical verses are not taken literally.
