People sometimes judge a book by it's cover and never bother to read it. I am curious if you have read Satanic Verses? It is actually a very poinent love story although it is mixed religion. What people have to remember about this discussion is that this is just a book. It's a bunch of paper with ink on the pages. Technically that can't hurt anyone. Just because you read it does not mean you are supporting the cause. I read controversial books to learn more about what happened at that particular time. I don't live my life by what I have read in these books.
