My dear friend...other peoples information IS the Koran /Q'ran / Quran

صديقي العزيز ... غيرها من الشعوب المعلومات هو القرآن الكريم / Q'ran / القرآن الكريم
I am hoping that this does not translate to anything offensive but I am certain that it will not translate to the above full of nuances and be grammatically correct....that is the hard part about english and anyone trying to master the language has my full sympathy.
Now....Yes I have read the Q'ran and just like the Bible and the Torah quickly dismissed it. It is not a book to base ones life on and quite frankly I found that reading of the life of the Buddha much more useful as a guide to how best live my life and how to treat my fellow creatures on this rock.
Yes we are exchanging our ideas and from this hopefully both you and I will firm our belief systems, modify them as necessary and move forward to better our own lives...and by extension the lives of those around us.
"A rose by any other name will still need shit to grow." Call your desert god 'Allah', 'Yahweh' or 'Jesus the sum of god' it is all the same....I am amazed that an intelligent person such as yourself would think otherwise....
Were not the sons of Abraham Ishmael and Israel?? They were brothers...the rest is biblical history.
But which dialect?? There are no captial letters or punctuation marks in Arabic are there??
So why defend a book that is out of date and mostly setup to support a tribal nomadic economy of at least 1700 years ago??
The world of the Middle East is no more (sad as I am to say that) the world has moved on and 'the apocalypse' for the Middle East has come alot sooner (probably because it was the last religion to come onto the world stage) than the West...don't stress we will get there, if not already firmly on our way...but for now I would no sooner advise that you put your faith in a sky daddy to save your arse than I would advise my own children to keep believing in Santa Claus as a reality.
