>>There is no better proven historical document than the Bible.

ok, give me some books that can proove your point.

historical document is a document that if we compare it with
another document of the same time period we will find that
tha facts mentioned in one book are also mentioned in the other.
and so we can say that these facts are true and they really
happened that time, and that it is not from the imagination
of a person smoking ...what ever he was smoking.

also the bible has some chapters that was written with 50
(more or less) years later or sooner from other chapters of the
same book.

no, the bible is not a historical document.

I will get you a list of books- and try to find ISBN numbers for you . Please give me a couple of days.

Your statement may be accurate in regards to some books in the old testament that covered events that took place over many years. They were written as events happened and so if 50 or more years went by as things took place, it would only make sense that there would be a time between writing those events down. This would be preferable to someone writing them all down hundreds of years after all the events took place.

In the case of the new testament- the documents were written in relatively short periods of time. Many were epistles or letters, written in one sitting.

The new testament was written in a beautiful language that you can fully appreciate in a way I never will be able to. I spent 2 years in college studying Koinea greek and I know enough to get in trouble. But I did enjoy studying it immensly.

>why not? Just because Jesus has come, does that mean God is done? Has God finished? Has he stopped speaking to us? No. He is not finished. He still speaks to us. He still has stuff for us to do. You are just too hard hearted to hear and listen<

That's not the point, David. If God created Jesus and gave him
dominion over the earth, then why the need for any new
religions after that? Dosen't make sense.

Me hard-hearted? . Listen pal, I'm married 24 years
now, sired four grown children, put up with numerous cats,
dogs, parakeets, gerbils, etc., etc., etc. My heart is like the
Pillsbury Doughboy. As for hearing and listening, I do both
and then make an opinion. And despite all the reams and
reams of paper and ink you generate here with your posts,
you haven't uttered one thing that makes anything but
nonsense. And Behold I say to you, Oh, True Believer, your
long post in this thread should be enough to convince any
half-wit, including myself, of just what a nut case you are.

So anser my question: why did God create Islam?
