#1 Like many people, the students in the madrassas memorize but don't analyze. The can recite the verses by rote but have no thought as to what they might mean. They should contemplate for a minute why, if Islam is the chosen religion, they are reduced to advancing it by suicide bombings and the beheadings of Westerners, why Islamic armies haven't won a battle since the siege of Vienna in 1653 and ask themselves what they have done that Allah would allow them to have become so pathetic.

#2 It is worse than that. They memorize Kuran in Arabic, even whey they don't speak a word of it. Even when they are native speakers I have my doubts over what a Moroccan who speaks dialectal modern Arabic from Morocco understands about Kuran who a) has no punctuation signs, b) vowels are omitted and c) is written in 7h centuray classic Arabic. It is difficult for a westerner to read texts written five centuries ago and Kuran was written over theirten centuroes ago?

#3 Much as I am loathe to give people who use religion as a political weapon any accolades--this man deserves
1.) A slot on Larry King
2.) The biggest body guards to be found in Jersey
3.) A newspaper cover story in every major US city with large Muslim populations.

#4 RWV, JFM, Of course if the average layman could understand the Kuran then their Iman would not be able to dictate what ~~ever they want it to mean~~ it means.

Didn't the Catholic Church have the same thing in the middle ages? --- The bible was only in latin and, for the most part, the average person could not read even their own language let alone Latin so they had to have it interpreted by the priesthood.

#6 Mohammed says the Quran presents Moses "as Godâs revolutionary" who "leads a people despised and tormented for no other reason than that they worshipped God, out of the land of bondage to the Promised Holy Land.

He has blasphemed! Cut out his tongue, and sew his lips together! It is Written

(Or at least find someone to do an "honor killing")

#7 RWV, The Moslems lost both the Siege of Vienna and the Battle of Vienna.
