Like the bible, it's a big book that says alot of things. Not all of the things it says agree. That's ignoring the ability of the reader to interpret. Ad that in, and it;s possible that no two lines agree with one another, depending on who you ask. There's no reason to read the quran. Just apologize for offending your friend, if you feel the need, and let it go....seriously, lol. You don;t want to pursue a career in education with the "bigot" label hovering over your head, however unjustly it may have been assigned. Welcome to the world of the religious, where you have to shut your face and know your place.
