A book of fabulism.
Point proven.

Does it make you feel safer to say "we are all equally wrong," rather than to say, "I am right and you are wrong," or, "I am wrong and someone else is right"?

Saying that "nobody knows" the truth of things, seems like the reasoning of the frog at the bottom of the well.

— How many holy scriptures have you actually studied?

There in lies the problem. There are scriptures but none of them are holy. Some have a few holes in them.

True. They are wholly holey holy books.

The Qur'an has never been changed. It is the direct word of God.

That's your answer to science and everything else you don't understand.

Actually, it is you who doesn't understand science. As someone else pointed out, you were trying to pass off as "science" an article that was in a magazine that claimed itself that it used "mysticism" as a foundation for its inputs.

You agree that the Koran is the word of God?

The delusions of religion are very easy to understand.

How exactly do you study scripture? And have you "studied" every single religious text ever written? What is the point of reading fables?

Dude, face it, you're getting schooled.

Are you saying that the Koran was written by God? Try answering a question.

You are a real comic!!

All religious text is written by man, who thinks they were divinely inspired. I imagine some of it is truthful and some of it is fabricated, mistranslated, symbolic, etc.

The scriptures offer two messages, and the main theme of most religions is a metaphor about two wolves that are continuously fighting within us all.

One is evil–he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.

The other is good – he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith.

Which wolf will win? The one you feed.
