I understand that. I'm just pointing out the silliness of saying "X religion is evil - look at this particular passage from their Holy Book with no context!" If you want to talk about the thread of radical Islam, it's really irrelevant what the Koran says. They would twist any words in it to suit their violent ends regardless. This is the same way that people have cited the Bible after beating up a homosexual, bombing an abortion clinic, or picketing the funerals of dead soldiers. There are a lot of people who don't follow the teachings of their religion, but instead bastardize their religion to suit their personal agenda.
