Re <<what about the seemingly anti-Jew, anti-Christian verses in the Koran? >> Can you be more specific? Where do you get your info? You sure can not be referring to this? "O Mary, God gives you good news of a word from Him, whose name shall be the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, honored in this world and the Hereafter, and one of those brought near to God. He shall speak to the people from his cradle and in maturity, and shall be of the righteous.'" (Quran, 3:42-7) Probably not this one either "Truly, the likeness of Jesus with God is as the likeness of Adam. He created him of dust, and then said to him, 'Be!' and he was. (Quran, 3:59)" Funny how nobody talks about these. I wonder why. Mani

Mani, what about the seemingly anti-Jew, anti-Christian verses in the Koran? Almost all of the extremist groups base their violent doctrines from these verses, and there doesn't seem to be much opposition from Muslims who believe otherwise. Tenchusatsu, wasn't the Spanish Inquisition encouraged by papal Rome? Wasn't the Spanish Inquisition intended 'to purify" the Spaniards under one religion, Catholism, and all other religions were considered heresy and their members, infidels? Weren't the Muslims particularly singled out for torture and death? More recently, wasn't it the Christian Serbs who were attacking and killing the Yugoslav Muslims? Frankly, the Muslims don't have a lock on hate and anti anything. It seems we Christians have done their share over the years. ted
