All holy books assume God exists already, nobody on Earth questioned that at the time of Muhammad, let alone Jesus, in the case of the Qur'an only one verse talks about doubting his existence. Therefore they have zero credibility to someone who doesn't believe in God, even if we establish they are absolutely miraculous.

Really? Planck (who contributed to QM I think) thought an intelligent Mind was behind the forces orchestrating the atom.

If you could demonstrate they were actually miraculous then they’d be considered credible, and atheists would change their minds, lol.

That’s nice. So, who got the Nobel for demonstrating an intelligent creator?

Both christianity and islam were met with immediate criticism in their own time, which has persisted in every time since.

I explained in great detail why the Qur'an is quite miraculous in the thread you people closed.
Arabic was already very mature at the time of Muhammad , let's take a simple example : one word of one verse[Hud/28] from the Qur'an took seven words in modern English. Muhammad posed a literary challenge to all Arab tribes while insulting their gods and threatening their pagan culture, and yet they chose to respond with the sword.

No, Klorophyll. For the 1,000th time between you, Atlas, and Mystic: you cannot use details or facts about the book, or the contents of the book to prove the contents of the book are true. That is a logical fallacy. You need external, corroborating evidence.
If you had such evidence you would have presented it in your very first post on this forum, but you didn’t, so it’s obvious you have no such evidence. You have a book of supernatural claims, and nothing else. Try again.

Take a book of lies, add someone who things it great, and you wind up with a book of liars.

@ Klorophyll and @ AtlasS33 Let me ask you guys a question:
Do you believe that human beings on earth today are being abducted by aliens, experimented on, and then returned?
