You are such an idiotic person which can hardly be described,,,,,,,,,,, Taking a few passages from the Quran out of proper historical and textual context will not give a proper understanding of the religious scripture,,,,,,,,,

Falcon, according to your own admission, the Quran has no meaning when "taken out of proper histroical and textual context". Then why the Muslims insist that the same is an irrefutable revealation of some "most merciful creator" It was meant for the inhabitants of 7th century Arabia and not for those living in 21st century.

I find these arguments crop every time there is an article on religion and we indulge in this mudslinging for nothing. Avinash if you claim that Islam is a 7th century AD religion pls note our Hinduism is a BC faith. So technically we are worse off than Muslims in terms of antiquity. Fact is if your look at religions with the naked eye there are inconsistencies which may seem contradictory & irrelevant to a normal rational human being. For ex. in Islam the Prophet has repeatedly spoken about marrying virgins and playing with their private parts. Another occassion he encourages women to breastfeed strange men. For us this seems sacrilegious and horrifying to think that a so called Prophet could speak such trash. But to Muslims it can take on a different meaning altogether. In Hinduism the Muslims constantly say we worship idols, that our gods are evil personified and totally fake and in some of our temples there is very little that has been left to the imagination in terms of sexual imagery. Yet we don't find it disgusting and continue to worship. Hence the bottom line in all this is Faith without which there would be no religion.
