===Immorality===


The Qur'an justifies and permits many things which we would consider as immoral in today's world. These include; [[Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Homosexuality|hatred of Homosexuals]], [[Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Lying and Deception|lying]], [[Pedophilia in the Qur'an|pedophilia]], [[Polygamy in Islam|polygamy]], [[Islamic Antisemitism|racism]], [[Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Dhimmitude|religious discrimination]], [[The_Ultimate_Message_of_the_Qur'an#Surah_9_.28Repentence.29|terrorism]], [[Wife Beating in Islam|violence against women]], [[slavery]] and [[rape]]. Of course, even when presented with the relevant Qur'anic evidence, such statements will be ignored by many as Islamophobic nonsense. However, this does not explain why many practicing Muslims agree. Surely they too are not suffering from Islamophobia? This inconvenient fact exposes [[Islamophobia|the absurdity]] of this popular neologism.
Not only critics, but even practicing Muslims agree that the Qur'an justifies and permits things such as; [[Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Homosexuality|hatred of Homosexuals]], [[Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Lying and Deception|lying]], [[Pedophilia in the Qur'an|pedophilia]], [[Polygamy in Islam|polygamy]], [[Islamic Antisemitism|racism]], [[Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Dhimmitude|religious discrimination]], [[The_Ultimate_Message_of_the_Qur'an#Surah_9_.28Repentence.29|terrorism]], [[Wife Beating in Islam|violence against women]], [[slavery]] and [[rape]].

On the plan to burn Qurans this weekend, I say to Muslims: Let's get over the symbolic insult and deal with the very real issues of literal interpretations of the Quran that are used to sanction domestic violence, terrorism, militancy, and suicide bombings in the name of Islam.
