re: #447 Naso Tang
But this is actually a compliment to Christians if we take it that it is not really “cherry picking” but the ability (of most) to distinguish between literalism and symbolism. That is not something that Muslims have learned, for example.
I think it’s a good thing that people of the Abrahamic religions cherry pick, don’t get me wrong. The more they cherry pick, the safer we all are, generally speaking. And yes, Muslims need to do more cherry picking - sorry, ‘distinguishing between symbolism and literalism’.
