So, presumably, there is no difference between two Jews who have studied the Torah. One might derive values based on social justice and the other derives values based on racism and xenophobia, and act in accordance with those values. It's all there, just as it's all there in the Quran. These are just texts which have variably interpreted and cherry-picked by scholars and theologians, saints and villains, victors and victims, the level-headed and the delusional, over the centuries and millenia. I am not a believer but I recognise the sincerity of those who employ religion for humanistic purposes and condemn those who employ it for destruction and evil.
