This is not the right way to cite a verse from the holy book. You must have the chapter name or number and verse number. Example: Al-Baraqa 50. Al-Baraqa is the chapter name. 50 is the specific verse. Or you can write it like so..surah 2 (which is Al-Baraqa):50. There is no chapter in the Quran named Quran. Therefore the first quote you gave me was INCORRECT.
Your second citation is "Ishaq:587". There is no chapter called "Ishaq". In fact, the closest sounding chapter is "Al-Ishiqaq". I thought this was a good-faith mistake until I looked at the verse #. 587. The longest chapter in the Quran is Al-Baraqa. It contains 286 verses. Let me repeat this in case you missed it. There is no chapter and no such verse in the Quran.
Now, I ran some searches on google to see where you might have gotten them and here are the top results:
First verse:
An acoustic guitar forum
Prophet of Doom (lol)
JihadWatch
Second verse:
Prophet of Doom
Jihad in Islam (understanding-Islam.com is a Christian website)
FaithFreedom
They cite those verse the same ( incorrect) way. I can only assume you went to one of those sites to get your verses. Like I said, you're wasting your time and you have already wasted mine for making me type an essay.
Have a nice day

_Opi_ I also found those same references in some Bob Jones University "educational material" that is kept at the theological centre here at UofT...
Oh... as for blueangel's 4% Fundamentalist stat... ummm what percentage of Christians would fall into the same bracket? Or didn't the 'study' mention that...
