In line with the Judge Higgins ruling it does not have to identify any particular person if we are offended by its incitement of hatred or violence against infidels, which is evident by the actions of some of its adherents - the case is evident. The Qur'an is not a suitable text for school children because it can easily be manipulated by extremists. Because many are offended by its language it must be assigned a restricted catagory. It is not a text to be endorced by an enlightened society, even as Christians do not endorce the violent actions and laws of Moses. We can read them to discover our roots, but they are not a Christian World view.
