Mysterious Ayas

Dr. Pipes should reserve this comment by fahad1968 as the most asinine, the most stupid, the most ridiculous, the most outrageous and the most arrogant comment ever made. Dr. Pipes has a website with "the 25 most recent outstanding comments made". I think that many of his readers would support a website listing the 25 dumbest comments ever made and clearly fahad1968 would qualify for all 25 positions.

fahad1968, why don't you entertain all the ex-Muslims by explaining how the meaning of the two Ayas below are clear in meaning to Muslims but become a mystery to ex-Muslims? If you really wish to share your limited wisdom, indeed if you have any at all, please explain to Infidels, Christians and Jews why we can't understand the two stupid and simple Ayas.

The USA sent men to the moon, landed land rover on Mars, photographed Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus and Pluto but according to fahad1968, Americans can't understand the two Ayas listed below or any Ayas, for that matter. So PLEASE, oh Wise One, explain the two Ayas since, our understanding is WORTHLESS.

Qur'an 8:12 "I shall terrorize the infidels. So wound their bodies and incapacitate them because they oppose Allah and His Apostle."

Qur'an 8:57 "If you gain mastery over them in battle, inflict such a defeat as would terrorize them, so that they would learn a lesson and be warned."
