I have read the koran. It is very difficult to read NOT because it is too “deep” or profound, but because it is incoherent and disjointed.

There is no narrative structure, and there are too many instances where it is literally impossible to understand unless you get information from outside the koran to fill in the details in order for it to even make any sense, let alone spiritual sense.

It is difficult to read because the repetition of violence and threats gets mind-numbing very quickly. OK, OK, I get it! My skin will be ripped off, boiling water poured down my throat, and I will have to eat thorns if I don’t obey mohammed. I get it.

Just assume that anyone like this Christian who says she loves the koran has not actually read the koran. They are just egotistically trying to tell you how morally superior they are.

To believe the Koran is divinely inspired, we must wonder why God chose a man who was mainly incoherent for that message. If God wanted the word spread wide, he ought to have picked a peaceable man who could express his arguments clearly.
