  Personally, from what I have seen, the inner teachings of both the Koran
  and the Bible teach of an awareness of forgiveness for the enemy. 

  But outwordly, the followers of BOTH spiritual traditions have a very
  hard time in bringing that ideal to fruitation. To be sure, some of the 
  most hateful people whom I have come across are Christians. 
 
  To make claims of superiority, and to actually manifest it are two 
  completely different things. It's the fruits that I see that allows
  me to see my Beloved God working with in the soul of a person. Not 
  claims of superior teachings.
