[Quranic Reflection]: moon absorbed by the sun in the Quran: far future.

[R00tKiT]

I think that you're missing the point.  I'm not vouching for it's historic accuracy, I'm noting that it was a proposed solution to a seeming problem.  This is a recurring theme for textual religions.  You're positioning for some doomed argument over the articles of your faith..but, as ever, all that concerns me is the actual history of the actual book that you both believe..generally..to be magic. 

And your position on the matter is what, exactly ? Do you think Uthman collected a corrupt Qur'an 20 years after Muhammad died ? Are you against any preservation argument from oral transmission to begin with ?
