if blatant religious prejudice helps you sleep at night, you can think whatever you want.

The holy book of the middle east holds some verses the same as a christian or catholic bible as both bibles say not to eat an animal that has the same life blood as people,its not an evil book its how peoples perception of religion that makes it look good or bad .Type in your computer sura 17:44 and it will show all verses of this book.Its people that make religion look bad . Hitler marched under a holy religious Indian cross and turned a 5000 year old peaceful cross into the symbol of Death.

The "Satanic Verses" refer to when Mohammed allowed idol worship. Allah was originally a Pagan idol, and had three daughters.
"The Qur'an, as it now reads, obviously rejects these deities. But—and here comes the issue—did the Qur'an and Muhammad always reject them?
While Muhammad was in Mecca, his followers were few, his movement grew painfully slowly and he, too, felt the pain of estrangement from his tribe. According to early and treasured biographical and historical accounts of Muhammad, authored by competent Muslim scholars (such as writings of at-Tabari and Ibn Sa’d), Muhammad longed for better relations and reconciliation with his community. Thereafter, the accounts continue, God revealed Surah 53 to Muhammad up to and including vss. 19, 20. These two verses read:
Have ye thought upon al-Lat and al-Uzza
And Manat, the third, the other? (53:19,20)
Then, originally, the verses (known today as the satanic verses) followed:
These are the exalted cranes (intermediaries)
Whose intercession is to be hoped for.
The cranes whose intercession was recognized were, of course, the three deities. The same accounts tell us that after this revelation was completed, Muhammad, his followers and the pagan Arabs all prostrated. Tensions eased, reconciliation was at hand, and all were delighted.
But Muhammad soon retracted the reconciliation—how soon is not clear. For the account continues that Jibril (Gabriel), the angel of revelation, informed Muhammad that Satan had used Muhammad's desire for reconciliation with the pagan leaders to insert into the revelation of God the verses about the interceding cranes, otherwise called "the satanic verses". The verses which follow, not the satanic verses, serve as the proper sequence to 53:19,20 (above):
Are yours the males and His the females?
That indeed were an unfair division! (53:21,22)"

Its not about the religion or the koran. The koran is a good bible... It teaches dedication to your family and to your enemy. Its the priests who are to blame..aka terrorist leaders... maybe they cant read or something but they definitely misunderstood what the koran was saying... dont go generalizing everything... youll turn racist =x

I don't know if its Satanic, but I find the term "Islam is a religion of peace" laughable.

You should go ask a Muslim. I'm sure they will explain it so that even a libtard could understand.
