I renounced Islam several years ago.
I am a former Sunni Muslim who followed the As-Salaf As-Saalih madh’hab (Salafi School of Thought). The Salafi methodology believes in a strict interpretation of the Qur’an and Islam, based upon the understandings of the first three generations of Islam.
I consider you an honest person. however I doubt. sorry for my unfriendly start but let it be.
so tell us how many Shia, Sunni and Christian have you beheaded as some polytheists or infidels !
tell us how you earned money from Saudi Arabia for killing and spying against the people of middle east. for suicide bombing in the mosques of Iraq, Pakistan and ........
tell us how you transfer the western weapons into Syria.
tell us who have told you to stop physical attacks against muslims and people of middle east and start a propaganda like an apostate.
how the security organs of monarchies of middle east and CIA and MOSSAD or MI5 are connected with the Al Qaeda.
we have seen many people like you. I should have said all of these and many other things.

Who knew the life cycle of locusts is like an analogy of how dead would be resurrected from graves?
Who knew that there are unseen things that are created in pairs too? Like pairs of sub atomic particles?

DEFLECTION. The subject is the Qu'ran. It is corrupt. It is in error.
Therefore, it can't be from Allah or God or any other magical source.
How do you explain an 'all knowing' God who dictates thousands of errors in a
supposed holy book? Answer ... God didn't dictate it.

Do you even believe in god ? I really doub that ,
And that is the key point for all Islam-bashing.
As I said .... truth isn't 'bashing' .. it's just truth. I understand that you aren't allowed freedom of information in Iran and you aren't used to facts that counter your religious beliefs, but out here where there is freedom of information, those facts are readily available. Learn to deal with it.

How can an all-knowing God dictate a book with thousands of errors in it? Scientific errors. Historical errors.

maybe you should go back to the initial assumption that Qur'an has errors and not rush to conclusions when your assumption hasn't been prove true.

alot of these holy texts written by followers of God heard voices, in todays world they would be put in a mental hospital and given strong cocktails of drugs. I believe in visions, and i believe there was a time when these voices were not so corrupted and could convey things properly rather than confused lies and such that cause people to harm another, What we call God we dont even understand, yet we still argue and fight like uneducated children. I think its all stupid.

You asked who knew about pairs. The Summerians did. The knew about DNA. Their symbol for 'medical' was the intertwined DNA strand which they added snake heads to.
But if you want to talk about when atoms were known about ... The theory of atomism was widely accepted and was from the Greeks. Check out Democritus from 300 BC. The Arabic word dharrah most commonly meant an atom. Suggested reading

RETURNS to dust. As in... becomes dust. But isn't created of dust. Or dirt. Or mire.
That's another error in the Qu'ran. One that is shared by the Bible.

the thousands of historical and scientific errors in the Qu'ran. Address the facts
that nothing in the
Qu'ran was revealed information but
was already known.

Though it is possible does it diminish the research he has done into Islam. His personal beliefs really have nothing to do with the information he has presented. Ill be honest i am skeptical too having lived in Saudi arabia for 2 yrs and met several Sunni.As a general rule apostasy is very rare reason being is all the side effects involved. You are shunned by your family and friends also the possibility of being life threatening. Thats why most who pull away just become moderate arabs and talk the talk.
However back to the thread Islam does indeed claim that the Koran is the direct word of god and as he points out a lot of people altered it over time. So look at what he has put together see if you disagree and present why i would really be interested in such a debate. So far ive seen nothing but trolls coming in to defend a faith that it appears the op knows more about then they do. Let the debate begin!!!
We find further evidence of an evolving Qur'an when we look outside the Qur'an to references to the Qur'an. We now have coins with supposed Qur'anic writing dating to 685 A.D. We also have the Qur'anic quotations on the Dome of the Rock sanctuary built by Abd al-Malik in 691 A.D. The quotations from both the coins and the Dome of Rock differ from the Qur'anic text today.(40) Two etymologists, Van Berchem and Grohmann have done extensive research on the Dome of the Rock inscriptions write "the earliest inscriptions contain 'variant verbal forms, extensive deviances, as well as omissions from the text which we have today.'"(41) This simply does not make sense if the Qur'an developed the way Von Denffer maintains. If these inscriptions had been derived from the Qur'an with these variants, then how could the Qur'an been canonized prior to this time?

the food you consume comes from plants directly or indirectly(meat), the plants take up many inorganic elements from "earth" and air to make organic molecules. When a body decays the reverse happens.
So you are basically made up of dust and water.
