I have never read the Quaran, but I have read the Bible and I am a Christian so I think I can quote the Bible in context. But I cannot quote the Quaran to support an argument when I haven’t read the whole thing. The same should apply to you when quoting the Bible.

So since we cannot quote verses from the opposition’s book, we should stick to quoting from our own book. Also, I believe we can discern what is in a person’s heart by their actions and words,

“The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.” - Luke 6:45 (Bible)

Therefore, if a person does evil, let us both condemn it, no matter the excuse. (And I think we can both come to an agreement of what is evil.) If a Christian does evil, I will condem it. If a Muslim does evil will you condemn it?

I will not support something my government does (USA) if I think it is doing evil. Do I think we have a right to defend ourselves? Yes. Do we have the right to kill innocents in cold blood (as alleged in Haditha)? No way. Does Osama bin Laden, or any other person have the right to kill non-combatants with bombs, airplanes, or knives?
