No such thing

Mr. Pipes, ...There is no such thing as a moderate mohamedanism. There may be moderate mohamedans and extremist mohamedans, but the koran - the embodiment/definition of mohamedanism - is violent to the core. The 'inspirational passages' you refer to are usually the surahs calling for the killing of infidels, you and me. And your statement that there is a possibility of positive change ... in view of mohamedan doctrine defining this ...book as the everlasting truth. ...
