Obviously, they don;t.  Magic books are resilient like that.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I judge by contexts, not words and gestures alone.

That doesn't seem to be working great for you, IMHO.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

The book kept changing as the years go. The bible of old is not the bible of today.

Surah Al-Maeda 68: “Say, “O people of the Book, you have nothing to stand on, unless you uphold the Torah and the Injil and what has been sent down to you from your Lord.” What has been sent down to you from your Lord will certainly make many of the most persistent in rebellion and disbelief. So, do not grieve over the disbelieving people.”


In other words you're saying that God, through Mohammed, was telling the Jews to hold fast to the content of books that no longer existed?  That would make God something of a twat, don't you think?

Yes, he was.

If they reflected upon the original authentic Bible (Injil) and Torah, they'll know the difference between it and between the edited text they hold to be holy

Your reply is ambiguous. Are you saying that God is something of a twat, or are you saying that God was telling the Jews to read and abide the content of nonexistent books?

That;s in the top ten of silly things magic book says.  For narrative discontinuity, chronological idiocy..and, ofc, the fact that magic man is a character in another magic book.

Khemikal, you know what I find ironic, is Muslims todays always prefer earlier sources of hadiths and history to later, but Quran picks the later gospels, not the earlier ones, and confirms a lot of the later gospels and way less popular.

If they are going to oppose hadith books because they are later sources then earlier contradictory hadith books, then Muslims are trying to have their cake and eat it too.
