Review of Islam: What the West Needs to Know (2006) by Krisko D — 01 Nov 2007
All the people who discredited the film without watching it first should keep an open mind, and not be as close-minded as the people they claim to despise. The movie is about Qur'anic scholarship, not hatemongering.
The movie quotes true Muslims, Islamic scholars, and most often the Qur'an itself. The movie explains the inherent discrepancies in the Qur'an, such as how in one place it claims to let other religions live and let live and another to declare war on non-believers. By learning how the Qur'an is taught to be read in a conservative to moderate light, we learn that Islam is not the religion of peace that many claim it to be, as Allah later replaced those statements with ones of war. I learned quite a lot from this film, and yet I am not, as someone else mentioned, a "card carrying member of the KKK.".
My question to those who dispel the film before watching it: have you studied Islam at all before making these claims, or just listened to kowtowing politicians trying desperately not to offend a single voter?
