Argument from perfect preservation
#3
RE: Argument from perfect preservation
It's the pyramid text, one of the oldest religious texts in the world. Preserved in stone for all to see in it's original form.
I doubt that any person of any abrahamic faith would take this preservation as a sign that it's true.

To add, that's a good point. I've seen many christians admit that the manuscripts contain variants that dont matter to the doctrine, but the fundamentalists aren't to in to it. I'm yet to see this in the islamic world.
Plato had defined Man as an animal, biped and featherless, and was applauded. Diogenes plucked a fowl and brought it into the lecture room with the words,

"Behold Plato's man!"
