has anyone eread even a part of the Koran? just curious.


its pretty much the same as the bible as far as teachings. both, imho are nice works of fiction, worthy of a spot on the shelf next to my dickens collection.. when interpreted as a text, the lessons taught do no harm, give people hope, a guideline for a life for those who need it, so i cannot say either one is worth NOT perusing.
I agree, except that the Koran specifically addresses 'a woman's' place, and I believe, that in today's society, to support such things is harmful and goes against the rights that women have fought so hard to attain in the western world.
