Is the Bible the word of God?

Don't assume

Religion is an assumption caused from the fear there could be nothing after life.

(It’s very scary to come to this realization)

Almost all Muslims just assume that Mohammed was too ignorant to come up with the Quran himself. However, most people confuse ignorance with illiteracy.

Because you can’t read or right, does not mean you are stupid. Up until not to long ago, very few people could read or right. That does not mean they were stupid.

Mohammed had a lot of power. He had a rich wife, and he rubbed shoulders with a lot of powerful people. However, his allegiance was with the tribe. As he watched capitalism take over, he was appalled at the inequality that was forming. And then, the answer came to him. Through Gabriel? Could be I guess. Anything could happen.

What do I think? I think the more educated I get on everything, the more confused I get.

But my point is that EVERYTHING is an assumption!

I cant answer all this at the moment, but for the first part about not there being an after life.

See, in honesty, I, before Islam, rather have a ball in this life and have no after life, I rather go crazy and do all sorts of things and have no backlash. It wasnt a fear of not having an afterlife that brought me to religion.

And come on, whats more scary than having a chance of being in total torment for eternity.

Sorry my last post was very one sided

I’m going to argue against my last points to even things up.

Even if this is true, perhaps this is a natural safety precaution. This human mechanism could a sort of natural guide to God.

Just because that fear is there, dose not mean there is no God.

Let’s say Muhammad was very smart. Does that make his word any less valuable? Since Muhammad’s allegiance was with the tribe, he would be the best person to pass on the word of Allah, preaching peace and equality.

It would be ignorant of Allah to choose someone who would rather be rich then speak the truth. There is no point in speaking to deaf ears. Muhammad had open ears and wanted this equality and peace.

Round and round my mind goes, were it will stop, no one knows
