RE: [Quranic Reflection]: What should Muslims do when the verses of God are made fun of?

Take the so called "most liberal" muslim country, Turkey, where muslims burned down a hotel where the translator of The Satanic Verses was holding a seminar. Luckily he survived but 37 people, mostly Alevi intellectuals were killed.
That day certainly showed what true Islam is.

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"
