Quote:I don't recall that Britain was invaded by the Mongols, or witnessed whole civilizations converting to "The First Folio".
The 17th century is also not the 7th century. I refuse the comparing of 17th century Britain's ability to preserve books to 7th century Islamic empire.
Utterly immaterial to the main point, which is that preservation of a document doesn't make that document true.
But if length of time is that important to you, do you accept the Gilgamesh flood to be a true and accurate historical account? Tablets XI and XII recount this myth, and we have the original clay tablets. Because of this, the story can't possibly have been altered.
The tablets are older to Mohammed than Mohammed is to us. Does that mean they're true?
