You're just selecting good lines though. I actually began to read the Quran myself once, I didn't even make it past Surah 2 before I saw the first mention of non-believers and "for them is great punishment". Nothing explicit about what believers should do to them, but if at just Surah 2 we're already seeing stuff like that, you know you've got a divisive as fuck (and paranoid) religion.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
