People saying that the Bible is the literal word of God is different from Muhammad saying that Muhammad's revelation is the literal word of God. The Bible itself doesn't make any claims like that, and it's a collection of books written by many different people. Whereas Muhammad's revelation is literally just Muhammad's, and its supposedly perfect and complete and final. So you're being dishonest by equating the two. No, you're being dishonest by suggesting that Christians don't believe the Bible to be an inerrant book. Which they absolutely do. The reality is that anything can be changed if enough people want it. Religions were made by people and they can and have been changed by people. Islam as a religion is not okay with apostasy or homosexuality or secularism. That isn't a matter of which governments are currently in charge of Islamic majorities - it's a matter of what the religion teaches. Muhammad is considered the final authority by all Muslims (save perhaps for some weird fringe groups that are Muslim in name only) It absolutely matters that governments support the religion, because that's the only thing that allows Islam to survive without significant change. Without a central society to legitimize the beliefs that run counter to many others, any beliefs will necessarily grow closer to those of the other societies or be stamped out by the march of history. --- PSN: kazukifafner ...
