If you do not agree to my "liberal values" and "cherry picking" as you so call it, then that is your choice. We are all the same decaying organic matter, and we will end up as such. If you choose to live out your life as you see fit, then all power to you. Just know that death is not the end. Let your belief be to you and let mine be to me.

He's not cherry picking. how come non muslims cherry pick the Qur'an to defame muslims, and Islam. He calls himself a muslim for the very same reason I call myself a muslim. We both submit our will to that of Allah. what does that mean? Instead of doing anything we feel is right, which normally isn't, to what Allah says is right, and moral.

Yes, it would be hypocritical of a Christian to criticize your religion, but try to think how it looks to non-believers. You all just look silly to us, no matter which being you choose to believe in.

[ArranoGris]

See, this is my problem with using religious texts for morals. I can appreciate that you seem like an enlightened person, but it's sort of irritating as a non-believer to see the way followers can interpret texts however they want, to justify just about anything.  I'm very happy there are people like you who look to your text and see that it tells you to be peaceful and good, but the people who want to use their religion as a justification for horrible things like killing have passages too (??)

OneUniqueGod, You seem to have adopted very liberal values and have chosen to chery pick from the Koran the verses that fit your view of the world. I see Christians doing the same thing with the Bible. You're obviously a smart guy, I just don't understand why you identify yourself as a Muslim as you are clearly smart enough to recognize that the Koran and the Bible are just the codified prejudices and superstitions of Iron Age men. Why call yourself a Muslim when you are just a human like me?
