Absolute banger so far, some of the best theology ive ever read
“There is no doubt that a central aim of the Qur'an is to establish a viable social order on earth that will be just and ethically based. […] When the Qur'an talks about the death of individuals like Pharaoh or Korah, it is basically talking about the self-destructiveness of a way of life, of a society, of a type of civilization.”
