Quote:This is one of the proofs that was given to humans in order to make them believe that god exist and that the Quran is the truth and it was told in the Quran that God will give signs to the unbelievers so it become clear to them that it is the truth:
You are easily fooled, mohammed. Since I doubt that anyone is that stupid I must assume that your readiness to believe such abject nonsense is willful.
Whenever some believer in nonsense trots out the "signs" or "miracles" argument it is always time for Richard Carrier's

Quote:Kooks and Quacks of the Roman Empire: A Look into the World of the Gospels (1997)
Quote:We all have read the tales told of Jesus in the Gospels, but few people really have a good idea of their context. Yet it is quite enlightening to examine them against the background of the time and place in which they were written, and my goal here is to help you do just that. There is abundant evidence that these were times replete with kooks and quacks of all varieties, from sincere lunatics to ingenious frauds, even innocent men mistaken for divine, and there was no end to the fools and loons who would follow and praise them. Placed in this context, the gospels no longer seem to be so remarkable, and this leads us to an important fact: when the Gospels were written, skeptics and informed or critical minds were a small minority. Although the gullible, the credulous, and those ready to believe or exaggerate stories of the supernatural are still abundant today, they were much more common in antiquity, and taken far more seriously.
Just substitute mohammad for jesus....it's all the same silly shit.
