You think you're doing Muslims a favor, but really you're just making them
all look like fools.

Plus what you write ain't even interesting. You should do as the Koran tell=
s
you to; get an education and travel the world in search of knowledge and
understanding, because obviously, you ain't got none of that. Nor do I for
that matter, but I know there are more interesting things to say about the
Koran:

Like what the Koran says about the Big Bang and the expansion of the
universe, centuries before the Hubble Telescope proved it to be true:
021.030: "Do not the Unbelievers see that the heavens and the earth were
joined together as one, before we clove them asunder?" and 051.047: "We
created the heavens with strength, and verily, We are expanding it."

Or the earth's protective layers, 002.029: "His design comprehended the
heavens, for He gave order and perfection to the seven firmaments." and
021.032: "We made the sky a preserved and protected roof." shielding us fro=
m
harmful radiation, meteors and space debris, as well as to allow for
satellite communications and the like: 086.011: "By heaven with its
returning system."

Or the arrival of iron from distant galaxies, as it cannot be formed in our
own: 057.025: "We sent down iron, with which there is material for mighty
war, as well as benefits for mankind.", oceanographic surface tension:
055.019: "He has let free the two seas, meeting together: Between them is a
barrier that is not transgressed."

I heard on BBC the other day that man kind most likely evolved inside mud.
018.086: "Until, when he reached the setting of the sun, he found it set in
a spring of muddy water: near it he found a people."

What about how nobody's ever been able to find a single flaw in the Koran?
There are people who claim they have but their arguments are easily
debunked. Unlike the Bible and the Torah, in which a great deal of
translations and modifications have distorted the messages from ancient
prophets. 004.082: "Do they not consider the Quran? Had it been from other
than God, surely they would have found therein much discrepancy."

Or how the Koran remains unimitable by humans, due to its advanced rhythmic
pattern, meaning and appeal. 002.023: "And if you are in doubt about which
We have revealed, then bring one chapter like it."

And so on and so forth.
