That Mohammed actually accomplished it is a claim, not evidence. You have a tradition of what Mohammed did. That doesn't mean he really did it, that his deeds weren't exaggerated, or that the text hasn't been altered. There is no surviving 'original' Qu'ran. Like the Bible, it was compiled from many writings, and may not have been compiled until after Mohammed's death. It was likely dictated or written by people who had memorized parts of it, though according to some scholars the Qu'ran was written down, but in parts scattered among Mohammed's companions. We have no way of knowing what was added, left out, or changed. The 'evidence' that it was unchanged is tradition...which is not actually evidence. I don't doubt that heroic measures have been taken to preserve it as perfectly as possible, but there's no reason other than faith to believe that the Qu'ran of today is actually perfectly identical to the Qu'ran in Mohammed's head.

Says the guy with presumably Arabic text as his handle?

ROW = rest of world, in common IR parlance (BTW, IR= International relations).

Pls.

Actually Muslims are doing a pretty good job of that to themselves over there.

I'm happy to let them get on with it if I'm honest.

But truthfully, calling Mohammed a paedophile and saying the Quran is a piece of shit doesnt really equate to us wanting Muslims to die.

You've fallen for the false equivocation of a belief = a person. It doesn't. I can criticse islam all I want and there's nothing you can do about it. I judge Muslims as I judge any other person, and try not to arrive at a conclusion until I've given them a fair chance upon our interaction.

Still dodging the question, I see. Do you have any evidence to back up your claim that women are better off under Islamic law in Saudi Arabia or not?


And I don't know what the hell your question means, what does it mean to "handle" a wife? Sounds really creepy, dude.

That's your argument? You have to be kidding me.

Squiggle, how do you feel about gender equality?

OP, please answer this question.

Maybe a root. Early science was around long before the 7th century. Sumer, Egypt, Greece, Rome, China...all made significant contributions to the development of science before the time of Mohammed.

Seems he's been matrix-dodging any question concerning his previous posts, becca.

I did not know that we had no 7th century version of the Quran.

What miracles are listed in the Quran and also actually happened in real life? I think that's a good place to start.
