I get what you mean, but this handful rich dudes don't actually do things with their own hands right? they must used military, air force,....etc. to do such an act. are you telling me all these people are not Americans?
Well this is though to judge
* It is Hard to believe American can do that and kill thousands of it's own people
* It is hard to say all these scientists who say it is an inside Job "Don't know what they are talking about"
I think only time will tell
Got you, and that you for clarifying that. then I have one question
However, there are similarities in the stories of the bible and the Quran, but there are significant differences, if it was copied by Waraqa who is a scholar of the Bible, why are there differences?
I am not dancing around anything, you are misinformed, as I said (and I repeat maybe you get it this time)
The material that was written on maybe was old as carbon dating shows, but that doesn't mean the text is that old.
and again, if We said that is true, how did you know that Waraqa wrote...
I used the word "paper" just as an example, I know it was not written on paper.
so, they made a special leather to write the Quran on, in a town that doesn't produce leather........ you went too far in your assumptions here
Carbon dating works on the material that things written on, it is not for the text itself. So isn't it possible that the text was written on an old paper! yes it is
But Wikipedia is not an actual reference, it is a collection and it references to something else, in this case, the reference was Ibn Isaq
So, if there is no Muslim Scholar who is credible, Why are you using Ibn Isaq! He is a Muslim you know that right?
I agree with everything except two points
* Met Mohammed as a boy (Even if that is true, what is the big deal! they live in the same town)
* Studied the bible together
These two points are taken from Maghazi book for Ibn Ishaq, which I mentione with a reference that is not authentic. If you say...
