You ask: > why is it only a person that has a "psychopath murder mentality", in your opinion, that "operate and manipulate the religion for their own self-serving purposes" from these verses? Can these verses have any other meaning then what pops right out at you to the human eye? Be objective here. That is what I am trying to be, and I totally and 100% agree with you that these verses can not possibly mean anything else but exactly what they suggest. As to why I said only psychopath murderers follow these verses and manipulate them for their own self-serving purposes, I was simply trying to (without offending anyone) point out that a vast majority of Muslims (whom I believe are not psychopath murderers) are not practicing Muslims based on hard-core Koran teachings. In most cases they are Muslims simply for the sake of the Muslim family they have been born into, and if you live in the Middle east it is very hard (if not impossible) to have a different standard of beliefs than those of your parents. The vast majority of Muslims are those who are trying very hard to sanitize their religion without being so obvious about it. No civilized (or in fact uncivilized) "creature" can possibly be considered a human being if it follows the teachings of Koran as they appear in that book. Those teachings are at best barbaric, and at worst satanic. Perhaps 1500 years ago in another time dimension and space in the middle of a region known as Arabia, Koran brought a new wave of fresh air (in which case I can not even begin to imagine what life must have been like for Koran to have brought them fresh air)! But based on basic human 21st century standards for pursuing happiness Koran is definitely the most comprehensive satanic book ever written by the male species to serve his self-serving evil selfish purposes through manipulating human spirit in the name of God and goodness.

Can you distinguish between Jewism and Islam? I do not know know anything about Jewism. However - and this is strictly from a perception standpoint - from what I have heard, Jewism although does not have harsh inhuman verses as in Koran, but its overall tone is rather harsh and not so peaceful and loving. Again I maybe wrong and certainly would appreciate any comments. As for Christianity although I am not a Christian, I do know that in its present from - and again this is strictly based on perception - it does offer a lot more peace than Jewism or Islam. Although even with Christianity you do have semi-psychopath individuals such as Jerry Falwel, Oral Roberts, and Pat Robertson type individuals. The best form of religion is not having one! As far as one has good thoughts, good deeds and good words, why would anyone need to operate in a man-made framework of ideology?!
