A holy book that can be grouped into the world's "three major religions" category. The other two main religions, Christianity and Judaism, have their own holy books, the Torah and the Bible. All three holy scripts essentially convey the same message regarding sin, afterlife, and faith. Allah, the Muslim God (mentioned within the Koran) can be interpreted as the same God mentioned in the Bible and Torah. However, looking at history and the narrow mindedness of some religious individuals, the three similar religions have had much conflict with one another, possibly causing more trouble for the human race than what a religious text's interpretation is worth. As a result, the Koran has received much hate from the people who know almost nothing about the Islamic faith, while the acts of disrespect and violence were justified by the tragedy of 9/11. Like any holy script, the Koran's existence is not evil. The evil committed by people in the Koran or Islamic faith's name and justified by twisting the words of the holy book can only be tied to the evil that lies in people not the message of the love of God that any religious text may contain.
