#1 There is already violence among Muslims over interpretations, but it's one-sided. The snake has all the lines.

#2 Has there been any reaction in the Muzzie world to the speech by El Sisi?

That would seem to be the hinge point for this discussion.

#3 The biggest problem is that Quran was "dictated" verbatim to Mohammed. To Muslims, it cannot be interpreted or changed.

#4 Jesus and Buddha spread the message by the word. Mo spread the message by the sword. What's there to interpret but by one's action.

#5 Really sad that the God of Islam is so weak he can't fight his own battles and needs to bring in his followers to do it. I mean in the old Testament God was wasting cities that displeased him. Heck, he flooded the whole world at one point. Yet the God of Islam can't even bring down a lightning bolt or heart attack???

#6 Yeah... he's a pretty pathetic god (lower case).
Can't take criticism, rejection, competition, etc... There is probably a nasty-sounding physiological name for the condition but that's not my area.
