The Bible is not a book of Peace. Nor is the Qoran a book of Peace . Saying the Bible is not a book of Peace does not make the Qoran a book of Peace.

You are silent on the Qoran abusing and threatening to burn and torture individuals like Abu Lahab and his wife, polytheists, ubelievers i.e. Hindus, Christians, Jews, Buddhists who constitute the vast majority of mankind , Allah's own creation. "Shirk" has been made into a monstrous crime forever unforgivable and struggling (going to war) with one's person and property is a great virtue. Book of Peace?

At least the real Christian part of the Bible (New Testament) talks so much more of kindness, peace and love.
