There are fairytales in Koran, like that a man was swallowed by a giant fish, that a man flew on a winged horse to seven layers of heaven and talked to god, and there is a whole book where Mohammed met jinns - those are fairytales because they contain impossible stories with fantastical creatures.
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"
