Hey Guys, I've been gone and am trying to help INTEL to help APPLE.
It's a long story though. Basically the company I work for is trying to make a project for them and I had to leave for Oregon a couple of days ago.
Quote:
Of course this has absolutely nothing to do with the finall fall of the Byzantine empire, which happened in 1453.
The Qur´an was written several centuries before this and the passage, that you quote was a reference to a battle between the Persians and the Romans in 615 AD.
Yes, I agree and that is an excellent point.
But, the Bzyantines <in their day> were not called Byzantines, but were called Romans. 
The Koran is just lifting up another example of violence as good again. 
When violence is not good.
Btw, understand that the Koran is supposed to be a LATER revelation from God. It is newer than the new testament.
So, when it contradicts the bible and Christ, then you are supposed to obey it <and not the bible> and then go to WAR and stuff. Because it is a LATER revelation!
It's pretty ridulous, but oh well. 
Reading the Koran, you understand that God is pleased with head-chopping and all types of abominations. shheesh.
