Yes… after 9/11 I took the time to read the Quran … slowly, from cover to cover …. so that I could understand how humans could possibly do such Evil… It is not just Hamas, it is not just ISIS. People who take the instructions of the Quran literally become Monsters. Similarly if people translate and follow instructions of the Old Testament literally… terrible things happen, … many of these ancient stories in the Bible are metaphors, parables, tropes and even have different meanings in Hebrew. The problem is that Religious extremists take the words of these texts literally and become monsters. They perform the most demonic acts ever seen on the earth. They have no respect for any life, especially their own.
