About Islam
#34
RE: About Islam
The quran is a book written in one language, Arabic.
The book is full of poetry and local idiomatic expressions which make no sense literally.  For example expressions such as "Whom the right hand possess." And "Drink the calf into their hearts."
The book does not give the impression as a final message to mankind. The book is mainly concerned with local disputes.  There's an entire chapter(al masad) dedicated to an uncle (who Muhammad didn't like) being sent to hell.  It includes idioms and seems poetic again and basically doesn't make much sense to the reader unless you already know who the characters are from other information sources besides the quran.

You won't ever be able to argue points with Muslims as a whole about specific topics concerning the quran because Muslims themselves, even the ones who speak arabic fluently, don't agree with what the quran says.

And to save you sometime on the miracles of the quran, there are none that would stand up in court.  If you're curious about them though then they are worth a look.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
