Seems to me that if you have something you want to talk about you'd find an audience that gives a shit. Guess you are here to hear yourself talk. We simply don't care.

If there is an all powerful creator of the universe, I doubt humanity registers as more than, "oh, there are two legged bugs on that blue planet now. I wonder what happened to the four legged ones?"

With those whole cosmos at it's fingers, we probably don't even register that level of interest.

Billions of galaxies, each containing billions of stars, spread out across millions of light years and beyond, as well as a possible multiverse, and a species on a small ball of rock in an out-of-the-way spiral arm of an insignificant galaxy is important to it?

Yeah, right!

Too bad you don't worship a god able to speak for itself.

He did speak to humanity in the Quran, but many humans rejected what he said.

He spoke to humanity in the new testament, and every muslim has rejected what he said. He spoke to humanity in the old testament, and every christian has rejected what he said.

On and on it goes.

No he didn't; the New Testament was written 100 years after Jesus Peace BUH's death, it is similar to the Islamic Hadith in nature: mere recording of the "stories said by Jesus's followers"; not attributed to him at all.

The new testament is Paul's word; not Jesus's word. Just like Bukhari and Muslim are the words of "Bukhari & Muslim"; not Mohammed.

You're a nutjob. We have about as much reason to believe Mohammed on Allah via Gabriel as we do Jesus via the Gospels. Just more of your bullshit double standards.
