Also Ashwin39 and other Muslims, don't you think it is suspicious that the Quran, which is believe to be Allah's perfect word, is so powerful and clear that Muslim apologists and scholars have to explain and reinterpret it in order to save it from being doubted, criticized, and ridiculed by everyone?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
