Look, I will never understand Islam or even pick up the Qur'an to read, so I can't debate it with any authority. But the reason why I will never read it is because of what I've already heard. If the beliefs I'm about to mention are not in the Qur'an then they are written in some other Islamic texts.
Those beliefs are that Mohamed flew to heaven on a winged creature, and that the moon split in half. That's all I need to hear in order for me to call all of the Islamic texts nothing but pure fiction.
I say this in the nicest way possible: For any grown adult to believe in such utter nonsense is an insult to mankind's intelligence.
Peace
For any grown adult to believe that such a perfect universe and such perfectly created human beings popped out of nowhere suddenly for absolutely no reason is much much more of an insult to mankind's intelligence
No, no, no. For any grown adult to look at the mysteries of the universe and just LEAP to the conclusion that a god did it is an insult to mankind's intelligence. The smartest answer - the ONLY answer - is we don't know YET. But I guarantee that the answer is NOT that life and the universe was created by an all-knowing, all-powerful, invisible being who is everywhere, who created the whole universe, who lives in another dimension called heaven, who is perfect in every way, and who was never born and who will never die. It's utter foolishness.
There is an ALLLL-knowing, ALLLL-powerful, inVISible being who is everywhere, who created the WHOLE universe, who lives in another dimension called heaven, who is perfect in every way, who was never born and will never die, and who watches you every minute of every day (even when you're squeezing one out on the toilet). There are also unicorns, leprechauns, Santa Claus, an Easter Bunny, and a giant purple people eater.
JUST BELIEVE IT!
