    As much as I admire organizations which promote interfaith relations, my problem is when the religious texts of different faiths are literally combative towards other beliefs. No, it’s not just an Islam thing.

    It’s really the responsibility of religious academics to start putting ancient texts in a context which is more conducive towards improved interfaith relations and overall societal stability. Otherwise, religions need to get out of politics and policy making, and just stay a personal matter (as they always should have been).
