Have you ever questioned your belief?

Re: Have you ever questioned your belief?

Again, referencing the Quran as proof of God is illogical at this point of the discussion. Some poetry is linguistically amazing and I can say no one else can write with such perfection, but whose idea of perfection is that? The ones who find it amazing, not the ones who don’t. There isn’t a consensus that Quran is linguistically amazing. Many ancient texts are amazing and can’t be recreated. This does not prove anything. It just proves that it’s a good work of literature. There are illiterate people who have amazing abilities. There is a blind man who can draw by sensing things. There are psychics who can sense what happened in a place just by sensing the energy in the air. If they say they hear God and have a message for mankind, would you listen? No. Could they form a cult? Absolutely! The conclusions about Quran are NOT the same. There are many inconsistencies but believers of Quran will always find a work around to make those inconsistencies come together. I have not rejected religion without looking into it. Unfortunately, that’s the assumption people instantly make. I know those scholars and I have seen their lectures but I have also seen lectures from scholars of other religions. All are extremely devoted to their religion and God and they speak with absolute conviction.

Okay.
