(Laughter) Part of the problem, I think, is that we imagine that the Koran can be read as we usually read a book -- as though we can curl up with it on a rainy afternoon with a bowl of popcorn within reach, as though God -- and the Koran is entirely in the voice of God speaking to Muhammad -- were just another author on the best-seller list.
(Naurua) Osasyynä tähän lienee, että luulemme voivamme lukea Koraania kuin mitä tahansa kirjaa -- käpertyä sen kanssa sateella popcorn-kulhon ääreen aivan kuin Jumala -- Koraanihan on Jumalan puhetta Muhammedille -- olisi bestseller-kirjailija.
