"God does not forbid you to be kind and equitable to those who have neither fought against your faith nor driven you out of your homes. In fact God loves the equitable."Quoted from the Qur’an, 60:8-- Nanaea

Closing...OK, some of those I didn't read close enough, my mom was getting impatient. However, in the translation I looked up at the library, there were notes on almost all of those, like after "those who do not believe in Allah..." they added, "(Jews and Christians)". Maybe not after that particular phrase, but one pretty similar. Anyway, fight certainly does imply kill at least some of 'em. Well, I'll wind it up now.

That's why the Qu'ran is not supposed to be translated from Arabic :).
Congrats for the chicks!

Well, you get props for going to your public library to find out things on your own. :)I dunno if you might have occasion to encounter many (or any) Muslims out there in Oregon (?) and perhaps learn firsthand what they do and do not believe in. But perhaps when you go off to college you may. You appear to be a bright girl with an inquisitive mind -- I expect your views may change with time.Congratulations on the baby chicks. :)-- Nanaea
