Why are you posting lies, without sources, to boot? The Koran doesn't say that anywhere.

The Dinner Table

1. [5.51] O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the Christians for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people.

Hi THomas, you are mistaken. It surely does say that in the Qur'an (5:51): "O people, who have brought Faith, do not take the Jews and the Christians as your companions (Auliyâ'), they are only friends to each other. And if anyone among you takes them as a friend (Auliyâ') then his/her count is also among them (he/she is one of them), surely Allâh deprives the cruel (Zâlimûn) from HIS Guidance."
