Need I say more?

It's what we've come to expect from you, because you have nothing worthwhile to say.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

The biblical fairy tale can be summed up in the last clause of 2 Maccabbees 15:39 (CEB) = "...so also may the writing of this story delight the ears of those who encounter this work. The end."

So here is my bullshit translator "If you just ignore all the scientific absurdities and moral flaws and cherry pick, you can swallow it blindly like I did".

Then you were never in a personal relationship with God, that's according to the Bible.

Neither were you.

Let me guess; it's only the Bible for which this principle of "unchangeable = perfect" holds true, and the unchangeable nature of everything else bears no relation to its validity? I.e. the Bible is special because it's the Bible.

The Bible is special because it's from God for us to learn about Him, his will and how to receive salvation and grow in an everlasting relationship with Him.

The Koran is from God too. It is a series of revelations received directly from God by the prophet Mohammed. Why isn't the Koran special too?

The Koran isn't inspired by God, the only inspired words were taken from the Bible to bolster a claim to God. The Muslim religion comes out of moon worship.

According to Muslim belief and Islamic scholarly accounts, it is said the history of the Quran began in the year 610 when the angel Gabriel (Arabic: جبريل, Jibrīl or جبرائيل, Jibrāʾīl) appeared to Muhammad in the cave Hira near Mecca, reciting to him the first verses of Sura Iqra (al-`Alaq), beginning the revelation of the Quran. Throughout his life, Muhammad continued to have revelations until before his death in 632.

Kinda' sounds like the Mormons, right? Those two stories mirror each other, both stealing from the original.

How do you know the Quran isn't inspired by god?
How do you know the bible is?
