Plus it's easier to convert people to a book which has whatever meaning you want it to have, you can always use the old "This is out of context" excuse or "This has been translated incorrectly" with the quran.God will not spoon feed you his religion you need to work (hard) for it, Quran is only reviled in Arabic so you cannot depend on just one translation of it (you cannot even pray in English) and ultimately (if you accept Islam) you need to learn Arabic as well
I find the quran more believable than the bible that's why I looked into it more, but when I did look into it I found myself thinking is god really relying on sending me this message via 100 different translations, interpretations, opinions and heresay that's lasted 1400 years. Muslims can't even agree on which excuses are best to use when dealing with people who question the quran.
You are doing to save yourself and need to beg God to guide you to the right path, this is the correct attitude to be accepted by god.
Quote:The woman you used as an example, her second name is leyland or something, I had a brief look at a profile of hers online and she seems exactly like the type to be converted to whatever trendy religion is becoming popular, she was already a christian who was involved in yoga and other eastern philosophies, it wouldn't surprise me if she believed crystals had healing properties or that unicorns exist.What about this women
