QUOTE OF THE DAY

I discovered that in all three of the religions of Abraham [Judaism, Christianity, Islam], fundamentalist movements distort the tradition they are trying to defend by emphasizing the belligerent elements in their tradition and overlooking the insistent and crucial demand for compassion. -- Karen Armstrong, The Spiral Staircase: My Climb Out of Darkness Knopf, 2004, p295

Hat tip to Public Christian.
