The holy Quran directly speaks for all human beings to live in harmony there i a verse in the Quran that states that the people of the book meaning christians and jews should live together peacefully.There is no place in the Quran that states that christians and jews are lower or infidels or anything of that matter.Also people think that muslims pray to a different God from theirs.Let me explain - The arabic word Allah comes from Al-Lah which means ONE GOD. So the word Allah is GOD in english,so please people don't see muslims as evil people there are the few extremist that do wrong things in the name of religion but this is not the true side of Islam i asure you this.We are peaceful people and people should read the Quran and find out the truth before they pass judgement.Also Jesus is mention more times in the Quran than Muhammed and there is a entire chapter dedicated to Mary the mother of Jesus.I hope people get the truth about islam and don't be stereotyped and thinks of us as evil.

Peace be onto you all.
