Hi Amein,

Lets assume for the sake of the argument that your interpretation of Koran is truly genuine; And in short Koran is a misunderstood holy book whose teachings are badly misinterpreted by a vast majority of Muslims as well as non-Muslims, and the loving, peaceful points you have raised are genuine and that is what Koran is all about: Love and peace and harmony among all human beings of all beliefs, cultures, and sexes.

Then why is it that 90% (or at least a vast majority) of the Muslims in the world today do not seem to have the same understanding and intepretation of Koran as you have expressed? Could it be that they are not proficient in the Arabic language? Or could it be that they do not have the same level of intellect as those who are interpreting Koran correctly?

And finally if it takes a rocket scientist with a few hundred PHDs in the Arabic language to understand what Koran really means when it talks about killing, destruction, Women's rights, human rights, democracy, etc. etc. etc., dont you think someone has to sit down and re-write Koran so an average uneducated illeterate Muslim (who in fact constitute 75% of the Mulsim population of the world) understand so no misunderstanding of what Koran really teaches come to exist among them? And therefore we wont have the terrorism problems that we do have today?
