Quote:This is not a fair argument. What would a book like the Koran be? I can say the Bible is like the Qur’an but you might disagree. In that case, it would be just as fair for me to say that no one has, or ever will write a book like Moby Dick.
Uhhh no, you're tripping over your own words, trying to inject sarcasm into the post to entertain yourself just leaves you looking ignorant, as opposed to shining your post with clever wordplay. You are not ignorant are you? You say...what would a book like the Qur'an be? Well the Qur'an is a revelation from God so...that's a good start in answering your Question. I'm fine with using the bible as an example it's the closest possible and makes sense to me. So don't instantly assume you can't use the Bible as an example because we wouldnt agree, just so you can put the 'Moby Dick' sarcasm in. Pathetic i deal with your type regularly.
So...is the Qur'an like the Bible? I've read both and am reading both now. You want to tell me the Bible compares to the Qur'an? If you do you're not being real to yourself, something you accused us of being. However we can debate on this, not in this post though, start a new topic comparing the two. But i'm not responding to that point in this post because that wasn't the point of this post.
Quote:Are you sure? Do you know for a fact that the teachings of Buddah have been changed? Do you know that various sacred Indian texts have been changed?
Historians the world over Muslim and non Muslim agree that no other religious book has remained for so many centuries with such a pure text. If you don't want to accept this then start another post. Personally when every Historian is telling you the same thing. Even those who wouldn't like the Qur'an, Chrsitian ones for example. I see it as your duty to disprove them to us, otherwise don't continue on this. You don't know who the Historians are? buy a book and find out. Then see how the majority agree, compared to other religious books, revelations etc the Qur'an is the purest. Whether they belive it is the word of God or not is different but see how they agree it is the purest, for whatever reasons they have. They may say simply because it is one of the newers ones etc. But see how they agree, and then write in your post <b>why </b>you disagree with these historians. You're going to need to research every religious book, scripture like they have, so you've got a bit of work on your hands. Get to it kid!

Quote:(3) Unsurpassable:
Since none of us can foretell the future, this point is moot.
How the heck is the point moot. By using the 'no one can tell the future' excuse you have here. You've given up already. Is this because you know it can't be beaten? Lame. You're not even trying now, just going down the list popping off any old response. Come on work me here, challenge me at least. Someone can easily try and surpass it, the majority (whomever they may be) prove it has been surpassed then...that means <i>someone would have surpassed it</i>. It's like someone saying "this book i've written can never be improved on" and from this assuming that no one will ever be able to do it ever no matter what they do. Just because someone says it can't be doesn't mean you can't try. You and those like you are just too lazy to attempt to do it, because you know you'll probably fail. I say 'probably' for the sake of argument here, i'm Muslim so i know you'll fail, but i can be non Muslim for the sake of this and play your game.

Quote:(4) Indisputable:
I can dispute it easliy on many levels.
Well no offense Martini, but you haven't done a very good job so far. Bought the old classic Anti-Qur'an website accusations, been shot down in the posts you've put them in and then claimed we are "making up excuses" when we give you an explination. Is this you easily disputing as you say you can do? You're going to have to work harder, because you're not even close to "easily disputing" going by your posts here.
