This is just another of Roger's flights of fancy when it comes to Islam, the Middle East, and Palestinians and Israelis. My guess is that he was amusing himself through provocation, because a couple of days later, he actually posted something on a Palestinian/Israeli solution that was fairly thoughtful, incongruent with his 'test questions', and offered a step in the right direction. Isn't there something in the Quran about being patient and teaching the ignorant? Lawry -----Original Message-----

dear Rog ,
Please tell me where of the muslims' texbook it was said that "an other religious groups are evil and they must be killed"?
It is very important because I have read Holy Qoran and I am certain that it was not saidthere.Please determine the place of it and if you have not read that ,please search and be certain about the truth.

Rod, Gav, Rasheed and others are dismissing views that contradict their own
as products of brainwashing, biased media, Orwellian distortion, etc. At
first I thought they were just adopting one of David's little social-level,
rhetorical tricks of winning the argument by undermining their opponents'
credibility. But on further thought, how can I be sure that they aren't
right? I am no Middle East expert. Perhaps I am making a decision based upon
incorrect and biased facts. So, to test this, I thought I should lay out the
supposed facts that I am acting upon, giving them a chance to let me know
where they disagree.
To accomplish this, I wrote up a little test that shows what I believe to be
the case. I ask questions like in high school and then offer a believed
correct and an incorrect answer. In every case, the ! answer in **'s is the
one I BELIEVE is true. If I am wrong, please help me see where.
