hey how can you be sure that the Koran as revealed to Muhammed wasn't changed by the guy who supposedly wrote it down years later?
And why didn't Allah, relay his message to someone who had the means to put in on paper( or scrolls) immediately?

Well, you could compare it to the 3 remaining original manuscripts that are now in museums.
If that's not possible, then compare to "newer" copies, say from 100 years ago, 500 years ago, 1000 years ago... It isn't like the Bible, where the original no longer exists, and neither does the language. Muslims have taken the greatest care to prevent that from happening again, by not only creating copies equal in the finest details, but also by memorizing it. It's a duty as a Muslim to memorize the Quran, or at least as much as you can master. So even if every single physical copy were destroyed today, it would still be in the hearts and on the tongues of the believers.
One note, you *will* notice one difference in the original manuscripts compared to today's. Since the language of the Quran is no longer mainstream, slashes or vowel connotations have been added to aid the reader in pronunciation when reading. But the words are still the same.

There are a lot of similarities between the Bible and the Quran. A case can be made that the Quran is a perverted version of the Old Testament without the revelation of the New Testament. The discrepancies begin with the separation of Esau and Jacob, (also known as Israel). Based on that, we can be certain that the Quran is Esau's perverted version of God's laws handed down by word of mouth for most of history. It makes sense because Esau hated Jacob and extremist Muslims hate Israel, (also viewed as America). By the way, the Book of Job is precisely the same in both the Holy Bible and the Quran, word for word. Interesting, huh?

the proof lies in the discovery that every single koran ( not other holy books of islam only the koran) is identical word for word. korans from 1300's ... exact same as 2006.
they haven't changed.
