Have you ever read the Koran? Have you ever read it cover to cover and studied the teachings? Obviously not. NOWHERE in Koran does it say that people and slaughter anyone or do unjust violence against innocence. That is FORBIDDEN in Islam. Show me where it isn't! These people who do those things are not following Islam. They are sinning. They are just calling themselves Muslims to justify their horrid acts. They are making the religion look horrible when it really isn't supposed to look that way. There are bad people everywhere. And it hasn't been changed by man. The original scriptures are still around. No man could have altered the wisdom in that book. Stop arguing in ignorance and read it for yourself.
