Asking because I haven't heard much about it that comes from reliable sources (actually reliable sources, not what Wikipedia defines as a reliable source).

If you anachronistically judge everything you read from old texts with today's moral standards, then there will be no good religion. The Bible, for example, is absolutely shitty to women, racist against many different of non-hebrew peoples and makes inumerous reference to genocides.

I've yet to encounter a religion I would consider good. The bible also has cannibalism (Leviticus 26:29,Ezekiel 5:9).

The people who judge the Quran that way usually have no issues judging the Bible that way.

I don't know. I've seen plenty of Christians denouncing the Quran while being hypocritical about the Bible.
