Which is more violent, the Bible or the Quran?

Just sayin' is all.
I was about to say "and how is the bible any different?" The Islamic may follow more of what is in their 'holy book' but that is because they have not had to adapt to democracy etc. The The Inquisition would still be happening today if it weren't for the political changes that came about.

"7:2 And when the LORD thy God shall deliver them before thee; thou shalt smite them, and
utterly destroy them; thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor shew mercy unto them:

7:5 But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images,
and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire.

7:6 For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to
be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth.

7:16 And thou shalt consume all the people which the LORD thy God shall deliver thee; thine
eye shall have no pity upon them:

7:21 Thou shalt not be affrighted at them: for the LORD thy God is among you, a mighty God
and terrible.

7:23 But the LORD thy God shall deliver them unto thee, and shall destroy them with a mighty
destruction, until they be destroyed."
