Islam is still seen as a respectable religion in Europe.
The Quran is the foundation of Islam.
There are more than a hundred passages in the Quran that could be
interpreted in a way that calls for violence to be committed under certain circumstances
against Jews, Christians and people with other beliefs. Islamists refer to these
passages.
In my opinion, you cannot view Islam as a respectable religion and
condemn Islamists at the same time, for they refer to the Quran and the Quran
is the foundation of Islam.
The Mohammedans rightly point out that there are also passages in the
Bible that can be interpreted in such a way that under certain circumstances
they call for violence against people of other faiths. Hasn’t the time come for
Christians, Jews and Muhammadans to explain which parts of their holy books
should no longer be taken literally? Passages that deal with violence should
especially be mentioned.
We should speak plainly. When translated from the Arabic, Allah should
not be translated as God. God is God and Allah is Allah.
