Why Yahweh? (Or Allah, or Zeus, etc.)
#43
RE: Why Yahweh? (Or Allah, or Zeus, etc.)
I have to go with John V on this, in that this is something Christianity has over Islam. From our perspective Christianity has an advantage, in that, the character was most probably not a real person or if he was, a lot of fake stories were attributed to him. This allows Jesus to remain consistent with the story of Moses, ie. miracles presented but disbelievers are stubborn.

Of course the Prophet Mohammad wanted to emphasize disbelievers in Prophets are stubborn, they disbelieve despite clear miracles, the only problem is that he couldn't come up with those supernatural miracles himself. So he came with red herrings, and finally a lame excuse "nothing prevented us from sending signs except the former/ancient people denied them/treated them as false". It's a lame excuse that makes no sense what so ever, and is proven wrong simply by the fact, former people rejecting signs didn't stop signs being sent after like in the case of Jesus being sent signs/miracles per account of Quran.

I would say this is a fair point, by John V, because both Christianity and Islam claim God shows such miracles to prove his representatives.

Although there was the moon splitting miracle account in Quran, it is inconsistent with the other verses with fallacious responses as to why God would not send signs.
