The word "it", of course, referred to your Holy Book. (And you can stop pretending that it is just too profound to grasp. You cannot show me one profound paragraph)".

Read it over a few times, Jewel o the West. What does the word "it" refer to in the post you are responding to?

Now you spend an entire paragraph trying to make my simple statement into something mysterious and incomprehensible. Do you think by putting quotation marks around "it", that it no longer means the Koran?

So what is so profound about your response? I will rewrite to demonstrate that it said nothing of merit. I will put my asides in bolding...

________________________________

See, there is the source of our problem in communication. You have always thought that the Koran represents my faith and beliefs. Since you think the Koran is the doctrinal foundation of my beliefs, you think you can criticize me and my beliefs at the same time (Oh...really? That follows, does it?)

You have failed miserably on every occasion because, as I have tried to point out repeatedly--I do not profess the Koranic doctrines you love to run on about. (Gibberish).

I don't know anyone personally who comes close to that (Gibberish). Your interpretations of the Koran are largely your own...blah, blah, blah ( Yep. I guess my interpretations are mine, all right).

Your response said nothing, and it meant nothing. You took the word "it" which was referring to the Koran, and you went off the tracks and stumbled about in the woods and then said, "so there". And THAT is the source of our "problem in communication"!
