Islam is a copy of judaism/christainity so none of his is at all surprising.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

Islam came approx 700 years after Christianity. They copied much from an religion which already had plenty of followers.

And at least the Jews and Muslims aren't mucking about trying to rationalize nonsense like the Trinity. When they say one god, they fucking mean it.

Someone would create a mediocre book by copying an excellent book , but cannot create an excellent book by copying an mediocre book/books .

Bible , Torah and Quran includes similarities because all of them was sent by Allah and two of them have been changed in time due to different causes .

What is your evidence that any of these were 'sent by Allah'?

And what about the Book of Mormon? Do you have evidence that it wasn't?

You can create an excellent book by killing anyone who says it isn't excellent. Reverse argumentum ad populum.


Truth is, all books are "copies" of other books. If excellent books weren't created by creative borrowing from literature and culture, there would be no excellent books, nor any literary traditions to make recognizable literary devices like plots, tropes, and so on. Someone once said that a good artist borrows, a great artist steals. If these books weren't based on prior literary forms, they wouldn't be recognizable as literature. All languistic creations are built out of the stuff of prior use of language. To say otherwise is to be stupid, or a clueless 19 year old, mindlessly repeating apologetic cliches.

Are the Tao Te Ching and Sun Tzu's Art of War divine? If not, then how did these excellent works occur? If you're arguing that all great artistic works are signs of god, then that's just lame, and an insult to great artists. (Not to even mention that the Koran isn't so much unique and excellent as just badly written.)
