Omg. I wrote so much funny stuff, it all got deleted because I pressed back! THAT IS IS ANNOYING! WHAT A WAY TO START THIS THREAD! ARGH!
Anyway, just imagine that I made a lot of great jokes and entertaining statements. This thread is going to try to write one verse per a lot of scriptures each, and you all can read them, comment, criticize, interpret, whatever, and you can even debate about what you end up thinking or feeling is really the best, most inspiring, most useful of all.

I tried to cover the well known religions, and did not include some for this overwhelming list, which I thought I should possibly.
So lets add 3 more as Post-Islamic, Islam influenced scriptures, even the Joseph Smith one seemed to have an awareness of Muhammed and makes mention of him in some writings or comments mentioning Muhammed by some of the Church of Jesus Christ and the Latter Day Saints people:
