  • [Watch] Garry Wills and the Q’uran

    A Catholic Mr. Garry Wills speaks about the Quran.

    “The thing about the people who are carrying out terrorist attacks is that they obviously don’t know their own religion.”

    “What can we tell about their religion? Naturally we should go to the Quran. In the Gospel of Matthew they ask Jesus how to pray to the Father and he gives them the Lord’s prayer. In the Quran they ask Allah, through Prophet Muhammed, how they should pray. Here’s one of many creed’s in the Quran: ‘We believe in God and what was sent down to us and what was sent down the Abraham, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob and the 12 tribes and what was given to Moses, Jesus and all the Prophets by the Lord. We make no distinction between any of them and we devote ourselves to Him in all of them.’ That’s a very inclusive creed.
