Jeffrey Lang – Read the Quran first

We look to the Quran, we'll find that 3%

3% you just take all the verses in the Quran that are of a legal

nature,

and then count all the verses of the Quran, take the quotient, and

you'll find out that about 3% of them

are commands and prohibitions, divine commands and prohibitions.

97% of the Quran teaches ethics, the relationship between God and

man, the purpose of life, morality, other truths as well.

The history of nations in the past teaches us how to be self

critical,

how to use reason and faith. The extreme importance of using reason

and faith teaches many, many major themes.

You know what I was taught when I became a convert? Rules, rules,

rules.

If I hadn't studied this religion myself and entered this religion,

and all I received were rules, rules, rules, I would have left it

the next day. Thank God I read the Quran first.
