This is the way if you want to understand Quran .
Can you truly not see that this is an astonishingly ineffective way for a god to communicate its will/desires/rules/etc. with humans?
And, as such, it is astonishingly simple to realize that the book was very, very likely man-made and man-written. All words in it were by man, for man... or rather, by con-man, for gullible/indoctrinated man.
How does your mind deal with this detail?
Did your parents indoctrinate you?
Have you ever thought that, were you born in Europe or the americas, you'd probably be indoctrinated as a christian and be here supporting that "world-view", instead of the muslim one?
Have you ever thought that you may have been deceived, as a child, and your adult brain is still attached to that deception?
Have you ever considered the possibility that there are people who have the ability to make others believe whatever they want? And it works with most other people?!
Do you know how your brain works? Will you allow yourself to be kept kept in a state of childhood-ingrained belief, knowing full well that that particular belief was a fluke of your geographical birth and fully dependent on the people who raised you and taught all you know?
People... that's where it all leads to... people.
People teach a fairy tale as if it was true... others accept it... and a myth is born. Let it grow and it becomes a religion.
Religions... made by people, for people.
The qur'an, the bible, the vedas, the Egyptian book of the dead... all made by people... to keep other people in line... all claiming to have a super-natural origin... guess which one actually is... none!
