Quote:If Allah gave us a book that is *obsolete* without collecting additional evidence, why is Islam then dictating that the Quran is the word of god?Because God gave us eyes, mind, ears...etc. The additional collecting of evidence through your senses is a must. This is how humans read.
No it isnt a must. Quite the opposite. Islam dictates so!
#1 Islam dictates that the Quran is the unaltered work of god
#2 You want to collect additional evidence to make sure you arent fooled by Islam
Conclusion: You cannot be a Muslim, at least not a True Muslim
If Islam is true, then you should not collect evidence. If you collect evidence you cannot be a follower of Islam. If Allah tells you to collect evidence (by giving a book that is *obsolete* without evidence), then Islam is not accoring to the will of Allah.
You, can follow either Islams dictate or Allahs unaltered word. They are both excluding each other according to your description. Which one is it?

You look at the universe, and read the Quran.
On a sidenote: What is your method of collecting evidence?
