(Before It's News)

What happens when you choose controversial passages from the Bible and pretend they’re from the Quran? Just what you’d expect…and then something quite powerful!

Here’s a thought-provoking social experiment that could help cut through some of the deep divisions we’re seeing right now between Muslims and non-Muslims.

Two Dutch guys wrap a Bible in a Quran cover, read some gory passages from the book, and ask people on the streets what they think (of Islam, in effect). Their reactions are exactly as you’d expect…but something changes when they learn the passages are actually Christian.

Some people seem embarrassed by what they’d previously said. One admits to being prejudiced; another blames the media.

  • The Bible DOES NOT say it’s a good idea to cut of a woman’s hand! It reads if a man is in a fight with another man and his wife jumps in to help him by grabbing the other guys “secrets” then he can cut off her hand and not feel bad about it. So the premise is flawed.
