If a god wrote a book ...

First of all, not what I meant by "our region." I was referring to our Urheimat. I'm not Karkin.

Second of all, hail to Vinland!

I didn't understand this, but let me tell you that Islam teaches that God sent like 124 000 or 125 000 prophets to mankind. Besides there is a special treatment and judgement for those who didn't hear about Islam.

Translation: they don't exist.

There is not a single, non-biased, non-Muslim influenced scientist that would support your claims from verifiable, independent research. There is a good reason for that...your claims are nonsense (as are any other YEC's or Adam and Eve'rs).


..... and of course the list I provided means nothing .....

now am wondering why did you ask for a list in the first place.... but hey never mind ..

It is obvious why I asked...said list does not exist.

It does not exist because any credible scientist that wants to be taken seriously among his/her peers would NEVER agree that the Qu'ran (or any other holy book) is 100% accurate, or that we all descend from an original pair of humans. Science has already shown that, especially genetics.

Why do you think so many atheists or anti-theists get so heated at religious claims? Because science B**** slaps you in the face and then reverses with a backhand, yet religious zealots ignore the insurmountable evidence, all for the sake of saving face within their respective religions that are simply WRONG.

Pass the cheese doodles...:rolleyes:

yeah so getting heated is a proof you are right.

Okay great.


Funny you are talking about credibility when actually you didn't even look at what the scientists that came to Islam had to say.

Well, I'm afraid I can't simply buy into that teaching without some real, independent evidence that such "prophets" existed.

I said "our region", to which I assume you replied something about Muslims in America, thinking that that's what I mean. It's not. The Karkin Tribe, now effectively extinct, was the indigenous Tribe that once lived in the place I was born and raised: the coast of the Carquinez (that is, Karkin's) Straight in California.

The "our region" I was talking about, however, was in reference to my culture's Urheimat (which means "Original Homeland"), which is the North Sea Coast surrounding Jutland (Modern-day Denmark) in Northern Europe.

As for Vinland, that's one of the names given by the Viking Leif Erikson to the part of North America where he and his crew landed, some 500 years before Columbus.

The point about which you have referred earlier is that people who never heard about Islam will have their own test.

Besides, have you ever followed the story of some people of how would they accept Islam for instance?

If you are not interested in such stories, I would just invite you to read about Maurice Bucaille.

If still not interested than never mind.

Dude, why would such stories hold any interest for me?

.... what would we expect to see in that book? What would we expect to not see?

As "a God", I'm speaking of a being most commonly associated with god: Omnipotent, Omnipresent, Omniscient, Omni-benevolent.

IF such a being truly wrote a book .... what would it look like?

I don't think we are qualified to critique how God should write his book!..

But I would certainly expect it to be the most widely read, influential, inspiring book in the history of humanity.

You would open to first page and it would read "Fool" i'm GOD! Why would I write a book?!?

Just providing extra explanations and references.

Sorry if that bothered you.

Oh, sorry if I came off snippy. I'm not "bothered", just confused.

Honestly, the whole thing is enough to turn me away from Islam.

If God wrote a book it would be called the Tao Te Ching, and no human could understand it. None ever has.

I have a high regard for the tao teh ching; I have a copy myself. But we know who wrote the tao teh ching; His name was Lao Tzu and despite what some sects of taoism believe, he is not nor ever was a God.
