It's a poorly worded question: do you mean 'deleting' as a political gesture, some equivalent of the American pastor's aggression, or 'deleting' just as tidying-up a reader?
By anyone's standards, the Koran is an important book: it created a language (Arabic), an Empire or two (the Arab Empire in North Africa and Spain, the Ottoman Empire) and a religion. However, the previous points about interpretation are important: the idea that you can just open up a Koran and then understand what one billion Muslims think makes no sense.
And, by-the-way, I'm a born-again atheist.
