It's not damage control, it's how language works. Have you read the context of 2:191? In the same chapter, it says to fight those who fight you and not to transgress.

The trouble is that anyone who has a different faith is fighting, right? That's why the Koran says to kill unbelievers.

People go to the internet, do a quick google search, the cut and paste from a famous website.

Lets see if these people wish to engage in any kind of decent discussion, and lets see if they even engage with language.

Decent discussion apparently means, "Here, let me show you how this book has to be interpreted so you can conclude that these passages don't say what they say."

Its your religion that has been killing people for having a different faith for some time. They killed millions of people. Thats why you are trying to put out a red herring and demonise another set of people so that the world forgets.

General statement. Childish people who have never read do this kind of pretence to spread their own religion. Thats what you are doing. I will respond the same way you have done. I think you are trying to malign another religion with any kind of cut and pastes because your own religion has the worse history anyone can think of. Murderous history. So this is a diversion tactic of yours.

It that a good enough response similar to yours?

My own religion? That's a laugh. I don't have a religion.

You see how the cut and paste, took parts of the verses away, and took it out of context?

I'm on the side of the Muslims here. As context is important. When you don't understand the context, crazy things can happen, like some of the things that happen among some, not all, outsiders to my Hindu faith in regards to some of their beliefs.

190-193, this is why I was telling you to check the context. I just quoted them all together, don't you think that's more of fair then quoting a part and ignore part of a verse, snip here, snip there, and then make it look bad?
