Benevolent Creator God?

There is no afterlife, just an afterdeath.

Thank you for opening my eyes. You should get Nobel Prizes in all the six eligible fields for this discovery.

I never claimed Muhammad copied anything. My point is, if you’re willing admit to yourself that it’s possible whoever wrote the Bible got correct information about Egypt from “some source,” then you need to similarly admit to yourself it’s possible that Muhammad and/or whoever wrote the Quran also got correct information about Egypt from “some source.” If you want to be consistent in your reasoning, that is.

It literally wasn't possible to check whether information about some ancient pharaoh is accurate because, as I said, nobody in Arabia could decipher hieroglyphs. Even now, not many people can understand ancient egyptian. We're then left with hearsay, the problem with popular stories about some pharaoh is that they are mixed with myths and exaggerations. My question stands, how could Muhammad pick exact details like those mentioned in the midst of mythology??

 I aleady reminded you that the correct information in the Bible isn't a threat to the Qur'an, the latter acknowledges that the Bible was initially the word of God. False stuff in the bible can then simply attributed to later alterations, starting with Paul's, the so-called apostle, the disservice he did to christianity can't be described in words.

Well..it's certainly not that, on account of how magic book gets things as hilariously wrong and just as often as the people it cribbed them from.  Whether thats the bits of judaism and christianity and their myths-as-history, or the greek medicine of the time.

Can you cite some specific verse which you think is wrong?

I have no way to tell one way or another, but my disbelief in an afterlife is very, very close to 100%.

How do you get to this probability?

The thing about a natural origin of life is it gives no reason to think the natural world ought to be better (or worse) to us than it acually is.

Well, any conceivable natural world isn't maximal. We can always imagine a better world than the world we have. Even heaven in Islamic eschatology comes with many different levels. 

Displaying gratitude to God for getting you out of a jam isn’t much different than thanking a man who bandages your wound after he stabs you.

Your example isn't very accurate. A man who stabs you burns in hell while God bandages your wound -and the man feels remorse for eternity. you are assigning evil to God and thus canceling free will and ability to commit evil.
