Eh, I need to interject here. Religion doesn't start a line of thinking for the common, it always involves that one person who can twist said religion just enough to make himself seem as a philosopher/intelligent leader that convinced the common to follow said persons teachings. From those teachings comes a line of blame, using the religion on question as a means of making a linear target to a scapegoat for the common persons problems as a whole, and pushing those who are now angry at said scapegoat to do things that normally would be taboo in said religions ideals.
It's all psychological propaganda fed by one to the masses with common issues, exploiting said issues and the commons beliefs for a goal that is entirely twisted.
Take Hitler, for example. Germany was in economic turmoil, so all it took was a little public speaking, a hostile takeover, and assigning a scapegoat for the common Germans problems (the Jewish people for their continued success in the business world in Germany at the time) and boom, he had millions of followers that allowed him to basically throw out the existing governments set standards and procedures to enact himself as a dictator. He also used psychology in the sense of announcing Arians to be the predominant race, giving the people a sense of entitlement and security, just like how Islamic extremists use the "my religion is always right and I'll be going to a pleasure filled paradise for blowing people up" kind of mentality.

Yes, you are entitled to voice your opinion, but remember, the only proof of and against religion is truly available in death. Other than that no one can surely say in a steadfast manner that one said religion us correct/incorrect until they are dead and ascending/descending/nothing.

You're right, I apologize. What I meant was that the belief is misused by people to get\abuse power by convincing the masses to go along with something that benefits them. I believe I said that earlier in this thread or in another thread though.

I'm sorry, I apologize you're right. That's more of what I meant though, I didn't write it the way I should have.

They say the bible is corrupted because the bible has been changed in order to fit the needs of the people (christians) whereas the Quran had never been changed ever since it was written.Its pretty much as simple as that, Quran - word of God and bible - changed by priests and such to fit the needs of the current christians.
The problem with that however, is that we do not know for a fact that the Qur'an hasn't been altered in any way. There's no proof it hasn't, considering the texts aren't nearly as old as the Dead Sea Scrolls. The Islamic religion is based around what one man was told to him by god, whereas the bible has so many different parts (when I say bible I do not mean the translated/updated version, going back to the original Arabic texts) written in so many different Era's by different people, making a complete story. A muslims number one defense used every time they are called out on the Qur'an is "it was never modified", making me believe it's just a scapegoat at this point
Because Quran is the words of the god, and god made it fits every time and every generation,
You say that bible was modifided by priests to fit the time they live in?, this mean that god don't know what will happen in the future and need help from priests, this mean that the god is weak?, Quran is the only book that contain everything for every generation
It takes skill to build an empire. It takes an idiot to maintain it.

You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named 'Bush', 'Dick', and 'Colon'.

Bullshit, it contains hypocritical judgemental douchebaggery at best. The reason the priests change the bible is either because said priest is corrupt or they want to make it more appealing to modern society, your book just because you "say" it hasn't been changed doesn't mean shit, for all you know it could have been edited thirty times but you're still blindly throwin your terrible as argument that it's perfect. There is no proof the Qur'an has not been edited. Ad stop taking shit out of context, just because a HUMAN edited the bible does NOT make said god to that person WRONG. All you're doing is finding the WORST reasons to argue that your religion is truth, meanwhile the bible was created over a collection of centuries by many different people and it all fits together, as pertaining to the original Arabic scroll parchment it was written on, carbon dating PROVES this. So if I'm goin to believe in anything, I'm going to stick with the religion that was written by MANY people of DIFFERENT eras, not one guy hopped up on opium who took the majority of his ideals from Judaism and added a twist to each. If you're going I even post in this fucking section, post something god damn worth our time because you're just an uneducated child trying to be right when you provide nothing to back up your shotty argument. /endfuckingrant
