Hi Didactylos,

What I asked was not meant to be offensive, it was a straghtforward question to Chip and I'm sure he will understand my curiosity about this, as what I asked is well documented. Dont know why you want to shut me up for asking a reasonable question ? How can we understand stuff if we dont ask questions ?

answer: cultural relativity that still exists today.

Recite in the name of your Lord who created ! He created man from that which clings.Recite; and thy Lord is most bountiful,he who taught by the pen, taught man what he knew not.

The Koran records his words in Sura 33.5. "But when the forbidden months are past, then fight and slay the Pagans wherever ye find them, and seize them, beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every stratagem (of war); but if they repent, and establish regular prayers and practise regular charity, then open the way for them: for Allah is Oft-forgiving, Most Merciful." In Sura 8.12, "...I will instil terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them."

Quran-2:256: There is no Compulsion in religion….
