hello guys! I have joined such type of religious community for the first time, and I'm curious about knowing answer for the question "have you ever found any bug in Islam?" if yes, please tell me. I was sort of polytheist before, but now i'm just a Muslim after knowing strong arguments of Muslim scholars.
Edited later: i mean is there any Islamic teaching against humanity? against science? against moral values? any mistake you ever found in Quran?
I think the reason there are so many responses to this post is that people are looking at the trees, instead of the forest. Modern Muslim culture is primitive. It reflects badly on the premise that the Quran is accurate and complete as a guide for humanity.
In Muhammed's day it wasn't so. Muhammed did very well for himself. Instead of doing what most men would have done, either retire to a life of luxury and sycophants or die gloriously in battle, he founded a culture that was very sophisticated. The ethics, social norms, devotion to art and science, the whole of Islam was cutting edge in the day. Over the next few centuries Islamic culture grew upon that foundation, to become arguably the best culture on earth. By around 1000CE it was stable and wealthy, the sciences and the arts flourished, education thrived, by and large Muslim culture was the most sophisticated on earth.
In a way, it was too excellent for it's own good. It became too good to improve, and stopped doing so. Instead Muslims basked in the glory of the olden days, while other cultures continued to change and grow and improve. In time they passed Muslims by.
So today, from Japan to Venezuela, from Canada to China, from Denmark to Korea most of the world is far more sophisticated than Muslim countries. These more sophisticated places certainly have troubles and flaws, but they are 21st century problems, when Muslims are still trying to overcome 12th century problems. Muslims still have monarchies and are economic basket cases. If it weren't for the petroleum they sell to more developed cultures they mostly wouldn't matter to anyone else at all. Their governments are mostly corrupt kleptocracies and violence is still the usual way of settling disputes. They slice up their childrens genitals and blow up other Muslims in markets to further their causes and forbid people from saying things that are true and make changing religions a capital offense. Ethics, science, art, politics, philosophy, social norms, the world has moved on and Islamic culture has fallen behind because Islam teaches that the Quran is the absolute authority, complete and final, when the human race has moved beyond It. So now the Muslim world is mainly uneducated and poverty stricken, violent and oppressive, run by warlords,clerics, and kings, and little better than it was a thousand years ago.
That is a very large bug in the system. Anybody with the sense God gave a goose can see it.
