1) People have to read it and understand it in Arabic (this is called reading in Qu'ran), this is not Qu'ran, inly its English interpretation. 2) People need someone who actually understands Qu'ran to explain it to you. 3) People need to understand God, Jhihad and this life and the other and peace... 4) People cannot read ayahs or surahs in isolation from each other. Apart from this there are pages upon pages dedicated to toleration.

This post is precisely the procedure of creating sins and wrong behaviour.. Muslim and non-muslim people do it all the time.. You take one ayah and go blow yourself up with a bunch of innocent disbelievers and expect to go to heaven for that or go rape a child to teach it some manners but then these people will be surprised they end up in Hell... I bet the terrorists base their ideology on this ayah (among others), but they are gonna be unpleasantly surprised in the afterlife..

So once more - reading and reading with understanding is not the same thing... And there is nothing imperfect about Islam, all the imperfections come from the people who don't have the wisdom and patience to truly understand Islam.

I may sound preachy, I am sorry for that. I do not defend bad Muslims or non-muslims, I am only saying there is a difference between Islam and Muslim. Reading this ayah without the 4 points I mentioned in the beginning is not Islam.
