I have one on my shelf in my office at home. Right next to my bible.

Despite my rhetoric, I don't condone burning of books, whatever their content.

Rest easy - I never thought for a moment you did.

My copy is upstairs with most of the rest of my books. I'll never tell my Muslim mate who gave it to me - he gave me very detailed instructions on how the words of the Prophet are to be kept apart from lesser works, etc. Nice fella, and no more loopy that most other religionists.

Especially Mad Magazines. Should share a place of honor with the bible too. Alfred E. Neuman certainly was my saviour during boring school classes.

Aren't Muslims the people who follow Islam?
Besides the Jews, don't forget the canaanites who also worshipped Yahweh, along with his consort Asherath(I hope I got names right).

Speaking of canaanites, where is it that the story places Jesus's first miracles? And how many miracles in one go?

I think we can call it Quran without Great, Noble nor Holy, I think it's more easy and fast.

Plus, the book doesn't really live up to the adjectives.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

Quote:Why I called Quran "Great Quran" instead of holy or noble quran ?

I frequently refer to the bible as the "fucking bible" but the use of the adjective is only for emphasis. I have the same opinion of the koran.
