You are presented with quotes from Islam (Quran), Judaism (Torah) and Christianity (The New Testament).
The quiz is a part of the art project 'The Children of Abraham' by the artist Jens Galschiøt. The project is to establish a constructive dialog and bridge the gap between Jews, Christians and Muslims. The dialog is staged through the art installation ‘Fundamentalism’ and 600 ‘light’ and ‘dark’ quotes from the Torah, Bible and Quran.
