Shiva,

If you are unable to write politely and respectfully then you'd better SHUT UP
Fair enough. Good luck with your job search, wish you every success.

Meanwhile non-muslims and muslims who don't hold such literal beliefs are being maimed and injured and killed everyday...

Sigh.
your feeling is totaly wrong

Prophot Mohammad memorised it and then it was later collected in a bood. We also believe that Allah preserves the Quran. This means that it is now exactly the same as it came down initially to the Prophet Mohammed. Not even a letter has changed. It's therefore only one version which is similar everywhere.


Beautifully said.
