There are many ancient scriptures out there, from Thora, to Quran to Talmud, Vedas, Taisho Daizokyo and the Old Testament. All of them contain contradictions, some barbaric features, or even perverted rules belonging to another age.
Now, as we know, times change and evolution does not stop!
Ancient scriptures have been written in ancient times under ancient circumstances
Modern scriptures are written in modern times under modern circumstances
Future scriptures will be written in future times under future circumstances
EVOLUTION MEANS CHANGE
Lazy people [demagogues, fundamentalists] hate changes because changes require the ability to compete in constructive creativity which they are not able, nor willed to do so.
So they deny evolution, deny the change of times, deny the facts.
They rebel against God's will.
Up to day the only scripture which -in respect of the evolution- has been adapted to the modern time is the Old Testament being replaced by the New Testament which currently represents the official line of the catholic church.
QURAN VERSUS OTHER ANCIENT SCRIPTURES
Other ancient scriptures could theoretically be misused for fundamentalistic, radical, totalitary purposes, although this is very difficult since none of them includes political features, except of the quran which for this reason is not to be considered a religious scripture but an ideoligical &political conception fitted into a religious outfit and demagogic formulations, with strong sectarian discriminating features taken seriously by its believers which indeed apply it as a social and political radical and totalitary system in connection with barbaric sharia laws in counties ruled by them.
WHEN IS RELIGION RELIGION?
The legislation in modern countries of the 3rd Millenium must introduce quality principles to define what is a religion, in oder to avoid the fundamentalists/totalitarists misusing democracy as a carrier for its totalitary political targets.
