    That's the thing Luv, some people question it on the basis to have an argument not to understand.

    I don't have a problem with people questioning or having a debates why god exist or not exists based on reasoning, Islam does not ask to have blind faith, but to ponder and reflect and then come to conclusion. The people who question the validity of religion/Islam or God come with limited understand of that religion or base it on someone else's argument.

    Qur'an claims to be word of god, I and approx. 1.8 billion people believe it and follow it and if someone wants to come along claim otherwise that's fine as long as you try and come with valid argument and not sound bites like its controlling this and that...everything has rules and Islam is a complete way of life, Qur'an is not book of science but a book of guidance with scientific things mentioned within and has yet to be debunked.

    So for people like DMD to claim fairy tales is fine but then meet the challenges/falsification tests that Qur'an sets but he cant do that so comes up with rhetoric all the time. He wants to have his cake and eat (believe in God but not his laws-rules) because that cant be god then.....go figure

    Bollocks to you and your bullshit argument and attempts to rewrite my view.

    If you're an example of your religion, it clearly cultivates dishonesty and should be discredited on that alone for any claim to being the word of the god you claim.

    That's just more lies and bullshit, with an additional plea for support.

    Have a debate by all means. Despite what you try to claim, I've no hatred and wish nobody harm, and I accept people's right to believe what they want, provided it doesn't impinge on others.

    See if you can do that without your usual lies though cock bod.

    It doesn't take long to pick holes in most religions scriptures though does it?

    The Bible, first book, Genesis - Adam and Eve vs evolution. Errrrrmmmmm

    Yes there holes in models/theories of God/religion. Just as there are in what atheists put forward

    Problem usually is atheists are usually so busy attacking religions that rarely do you find what are their beliefs/explanations

    If in the rare occasion you have a conversation with one where its not attacking religion the logic is laughable at best in my experience based on premise's set by Dawkins

    that's bit of generalisation on your part I would say mate....ok you have picked holes in the Bible to say you then do that with everything is a bit of bold statement...

    Even evolution I assume you know that quite well then? doesn't prove or disprove anything..

    That's bollocks though.

    Take my example, evolution vs the big man plonked a pair of fully grown humans that he'd presumably grown earlier into the garden of Eden, the logic says that on the balance of probabilities that evolution is correct, over a story written thousands of years ago that stands up to **** all scrutiny.

    You can repeat the same dissection of these fables across the board

    The bible is the one I am most familiar with, and I could spend all day ripping it's fables to bits yes.

    Are you telling me that other religions scriptures would stand up to the same scrutiny?

    Straight away you have set your own agenda/borders/starting points and made a conclusion

    This is why it's always impossible to have this discussion

    Evolution v Adam and eve? Logic of probabilities?

    What is the logic of probabilities for the universe and its existence by chance and by a source?

    I would say yes or definately more so

    In fact people do disservice to the bible and Christianity too. You simply cannot base Christianity or christian belief as a whole on creationists and the like just as I would never base my view on all atheists on dawkins, hitchens, Harris and dennet or myers

    No, it's impossible to have these discussions with believers, as they believe due to their faith, they know the logic is flawed, so 'faith' is what makes them believe. As soon as an atheist or non believer dissects the fable, they take it as an attack on their faith and take it personally.

    As for the logic of the creation of the Universe, the big bang theory vs an omnipotent being who was created by what exactly?

    Ok then, the new testament. Why were the chapters about the resurrection written 40 years after the rest of it?

    Bible has many contradictions and the author is man

    I don't know any other scriptures that claims to be the direct word of god and the author to be God apart from the Qur'an, it even challenges people to bring something like it or find contradictions if they believe it not to be word of God. Also there is promise that the Qur'an will be protect from day one and it is still the same Qur'an as it was then it is now..

    There are many things I can go through when its debated on a intellectual ground rather than ends up happening here, if you see what I mean..

    The Quran was written by man, he just claimed it was the word of God.
