No, LadyForCamus, the Quran must be referenced, but it's not due to it be reference it's true, it's due to the higher type of literature and way of guidance which is beyond capability of humans. I explained how it is, and I also offered over the years other arguments for the Quran, but the fact is you are trying to equate the two so you don't have to look at the proof.
That is not by quoting Quran, that is by reflection, logic and reason precedes Quran. God is ultimate reason and is capable of providing a sign/proof in the form of guidance from him.
