This convo, in this thread, is delicious. We've got a muslim who believes in the magic book so much that he thinks it contains scientific miracles..but he denies that the chain of claim and custody used to produce that same book is worth a shit.
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!

Ever look at the things that catholic and protestant scholars generally believe?

Yes. The situation is very similar to real life: non-believers find another Muslim bellydancer and support him to be their proxy against the effective Muslim; just like the west does in supporting Egypt's SISI, Saudi Arabia's Sauds or Irani Shiites.
But believe me, one day this eternal battle will be over.
You know, the support doesn't have to be "real"; because the person you support is a bellydancing sick freak with no morals. But he is a good static to me, so why not support him?

The Qur'an is meant to be a rhetorical challenge. That's how it impressed Arab tribes back then and established its superiority.
So now you're claiming to know the mind of God and what his intentions were regarding the Quran? I'd say that's remarkable, but it's really not.

Buddy, I was talking about you....not Kloro. He's a nut too, sure, but at least he knows a little bit about how the donuts were made.
I absolutely understand and even agree with your objections to hadith. Trouble is, magic book was produced in the same way. If there's something wrong with that method - then something is wrong with magic book.
