Because there is no evidence that there is any god. First things first, amigo.

Doesn't the quaran claim humans were originally made out of mud, dust and a blood clot? If you want to be taken seriously on the points about hte quaran knowing science maybe you can explain that part?


Also, the fact there is ZERO proof for a god is probably the best proof that your book is not the work of god. The rest however was answered beautifully by theVoid.

It's the same thing as all other religious texts. It's fictitious crap that was written by ignorant men.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.

God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?

After learning about the life of Muhammad, I have no doubts that he was not a liar or an imposter,

After we look at these biographical facts with an unbiased approach, it's not reasonable for anyone to believe that Muhammad was a crazy man, or a trickster, or a psychopath, or a man with an evil agenda.

This is a variation on the "liar, lunatic or lord" canard that has been offered as "proof" of Christianity.

Seriously, human nature is more complicated than what the trilemma presupposes. Someone who falsely masquerades as a god may still be able to utter moral teachings or do occasional good deeds.

"The trinity can be equated to having your cake and eating it too."

"(Yahweh's) actions are good because (Yahweh) is the ultimate standard of goodness. That’s not begging the question"
