I read here interesting comments. Qs is how many of you really have read Quran? English translation of Quran written by many muslim scholars are available. I have read the Quran. My impression is this. "Quran, desperately tries to lure the non believers by scaring them with God's wrath, and promise to reward the believers by great things in the Heaven. This keeps repating in almost all the Suras. Every pages of Quran talks about the rewards for the believers and punishment for the non believers". I didn't see any spiritual teachings, or talk of peace or nothing intelligent. Well read it to yourself. If they quote any peace verses of Quran , then it is the only verse in the Holy Book. For me, Taliban is the true face of Islam. Indian Muslims by any count are relatively the most rational minded people

the same applies to Shri Satya Narayan katha ... I mean, I have heard it being told countless number of times and the bottom line is same "Believe in God" .. of course shri satyanarian katha doesn't ask you to go kill non believers, it just shows you that great things happen for you when you believe in God and what terrible things can happen if you forget God and consider yourself to be above God ... basically when you lose all your humility.

Yes, SK also talks about punishment. Difference is: Hinduism is a reference books with no one thing to follow. Org. religion is like text book revealed by God himself kris
