Certainly Ockham's Razor (a good Christian Philosopher, William of Ockham) would suggest that it is more likely that Muhammed wasn't illiterate and wrote the Koran than he was illiterate and God miraculously wrote the Koran for him.

I doubt that. Why would God write for a false religion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But just by the numbers Christianity has far more worldwide adherents than Islam. Islam is no bigger than just the Catholic Church around 1.1 billion.

I'm sure you're trying to issue a blistering rebuttal here but it really fizzled. There is none so blind as he who will not see; sure you've heard that before and it's SO apropo. I will pray for you, P.A. No rebuttal, MG. What's the point in responding when those who listen do not really listen? Thanks for the prayers though One can never get enough of the help of the upstairs variety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
