The religion s h i t is a never-ending discussion that goes on and on while nobody wins and nobody loses. You're not going to convince everyone else of anything who have already been brainwashed or religiously "groomed" in their upbringing.
Honest, that s h i t is getting old

You can see any religious books, almost all the things are common. There will be a God may be different in shapes or no shape at all. There will be a satan. There will be a heaven there will be a hell.
Similarly what things to do or not do will be quite common in all communities. Or may be slightly different based on the atmosphere/ living surroundings.
What ever you said that there will be a Knowledge of other books may be possible. But without studying these books too one can say that what is good and what is wrong.

What do you think about this the people who wrote the bible had a good knowlege of hinduism, zorastrianism, judaism, and paganism, many of the myths in the old testament where taken from other cultures and where absorbed by the nomadic Hebrew tribes.

Yes Hinduism, Paganism, Judaism, Zorastrianism, and even Christianity were much earlier relegion followed by humans before the Muslim came into existance. So a person / persons who had difference of opinion clubed together and created another relegion / way of life called islam..... so its quied possible you are right.

You hit the nail on the head. Muhammed studied many religions and picked things from each that he liked and agreed with and then made up his own religion-Islam. I respect Muslims for their devote faith but talk about the blind leading the blind. I will never understand why someone would follow a person that did so much wrong in the name of their own God and make up a religion of his own. Christians follow Christ. Christ is divine. Muhammed was never divine and admitted to his weaknesses.

That prove that Koran has the same source as the Bible and Judaism books, God sent the messengers to make human life better and the last messenger was prophet Mohamed who gave us the last words of GOD "Koran".

People don't exist in a cultural vacuum so if the author was educated enough to write it is logical to assume he had a knowledge of the cultures that you mention.

Why not? The Koran is quite recent.

Probably, but the real question would be is it God inspired?
