Rev. Joe: Reading

I have yet to read the Koran, but reading Red, White, and Muslim: My Story of Belief to get a sense of the liberal believer. Yes, a believer, who believes in stuff someone else would deem silly, but it works for them. There are lines not to cross, but respect such people, and find it tiresome (and crude) when some disparage them. The liberal version does help. There are cites to the "official line" that do make me pause, especially when a bit of nuance can help.
