Very interesting points all round.
For me, the problem is not with the bible and the Quran, they are just books. It's with this perpetual myth that they are magic and contain truth and wisdom. You're right, people who hold similarly bad morals as protrayed in those books can find easy justification for their prejudice. They couldn't do that if no one thought the books were any more real than my Beano album.
