Does Spencer Think A Muslim will Voluntarily Go Against Koran

Reader comment on item: Finding Moderate Muslims - More Questions

Submitted by Singha (India), Oct 27, 2008 at 23:24

It is naive to expect a muslim to go against koran. In Europe prolonged struggle across centuries was required before people could speak out against bible and the pope.

The entire religion of islam involves repeated assertions of the lie that koran is the final word of God, true for all times to come. The issue of belief in koran is more of a binary issue. Either one believes it in toto or you dont. Muslim is one who believes in koran.

In islam, any muslim that goes against koran (murtad) is punishable with death.

So to conclude moderate muslim is an oxymoron.
