It’s Sunday, with many of us heading off to church.  In more churches than we’d like, Christians will hear how evil Islam is.  But here’s an experiment done by a couple of pranksters from the Dutch internet show “Dit Is Normaal”<\/em><\/strong> (“This is Normal”)<\/em> that shows we’re not so very different. <\/p>\n

[Islam] has been under huge scrutiny lately and is often [criticized] for being an aggressive religion… but what about Christianity? In this video we disguised a Bible<\/strong> as a Quran<\/strong> and read some of its most gruesome verses to the people. This is what they had to say.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It wasn’t a bit difficult to convince the people on the street that the violent, misogynistic, unforgiving passages were straight out of the Quran. <\/p>\n

But what is heartening are their reactions when they learn that it’s actually from the Bible …<\/p>\n

“WTF?!?”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

“That’s just sick!  Really sick!!” <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

… And how objective they were in assessing their shock.<\/p>\n
