I DID think Oryx was insensitive with her comment and it was inflamatory - I guess that's just her way, her sense of humour, but she's an intelligent lady and should have realised it was bound to cause a ruck in here.
Having said that, most QLers know how she 'speaks' when typing and most who do just let it be and probably simply considered it as just a 'throw-away line. Obviously there are some who are unused to her manner.
I have no idea if she took that into consideration when she joked about the Quran.
On the bright side, I've always found Jewish jokes about the Bible to be very amusing! I guess, at the end of the day, it's all down to the sensitivies of the individuals concerned.
