What real proof do muslims have that the Bible is corrupt? or quran - fact or fiction?

Question

Muslims will quote Quran 2:79 as a verse where the Koran says the canon of the Bible is corrupted, "Then woe to those who write the Book with their own hands, and then say: "This is from God," to traffic with it for miserable price!" My question is: If this verse refers to the corruption of the Bible, then why did Muhammad command Christians to follow the Bible they possessed in 600 AD in Quran 2:89; 7:157? And is this the only verse in the Koran that says the Bible is corrupt? (see also Quran 2:40-42,126,136,285; 3:3,71,93; 4:47,136; 5:47-51, 69,71-72; 6:91; 10:37,94; 21:7; 29:45,46; 35:31; 46:11)

Answer 1

Don't know. But you have to remember that part of the Qu'ran was written while Muslims and Christians and Jews were somewhat ok with each other. Those verses were written when Mohammad thought that he could talk Christians into becoming Muslim and that if they studied their scriptures they would then be able to see how Islam is the actual revelation and Christianity is not. The other verses which are really terrible towards Christianity and Judaism come from when Christian's and Jews very clearly said that they didn't want what Islam was trying to sell. That is when you start to get the nasty verses, because, as you should know, people who reject the Qu'ran reject Allah and thus should die (unless of course they pay the tax!)

The proof for a Muslim is that is "is in the Qu'ran" because the Qu'ran is a copy of the eternal Qu'ran that is in paradise. It is almost impossible to argue with a Muslim that that is not proof.

What proof do we have that you aren't violating the rules when it comes to how much time you can spend on the computer in the mental ward you're in??

People [black, white, or purple] are drawn to what is familiar.
