In part 5 of my textual criticism series I will investigate another challenge Muslims love to make regarding their Koran: produce a Koran/Surah/Aya like it.

They ignore the existing ones, but I pick up the challenge.

  • The source of breast milk IS GENERATED from what that WOMAN eats (in her belly).

    NO FOOD, NO MILK.

    So it is not only factually CORRECT, BUT MAKES MORE SENSE BECAUSE IT REFERS TO PROVISION GIVEN TO THAT WOMAN FROM ALLAH (food in her belly) WHICH WOULD NOT BE SO CLEAR IF HE SAID THE MILK CAME FROM THE BREAST.

    ALSO, LET'S BE CLEAR: MILK IS GENERATED IN THE BREAST BUT THE SOURCE COMES FROM FOOD INGESTED.

  • @PUNISHERUltra

    Are you seriously claiming the Koran makes sense?

    Are you seriously suggesting that a cow produces milk in her belly?

    The Koran does NOT say: milk is produced from the contents of the belly. That is your human interpretation because you know the Koran is wrong.

    That's like saying: humans are created from an extract of clay. Totally ridiculous.

    But hey, if you want to live in the 7th century, do so.

  • @StopSpamming1 didnt you know about the word for cattle in miraculous quran is in male form which would mean that ,Quran says that the male cattle gives milk lol.also for sura like it just give muslims this site ht tp://suralikeit.co m/ ,its in arabic and english and i can say its much better then quran!

  • @zilexxx Thanks. That the form is male can be interpreted as general singular, which can - in turn - mean that it could be correct.

    The next J&T show will be on the SurahLikeIt topic.

  • too many question marks, theres only 1 version of the quran you have too challenge. At least try producing something better.

  • @Barerra1

    Yeah, I know. Having to use your brain to think can cause stress.

    Better run along now.

  • @Barerra1 ht tp://suralikeit.co m/ its in arabic and english !

  • @PUNISHERUltra ...wouldn't give me any credit...

  • @StopSpamming1 Humans are created from 'physical matter' which relates to the word 'clay' as symbolic.

    Did you even read my post properly? I said milk is 'generated' in the breast but the energy and matter is SOURCED from food ingested in the belly.

    For example, if you had a business that was 100% funded by me, you would say that the products came as a result of MY funding. You helped generate it but then that would GIVE ME ANY CREDIT.

    Get it now?

  • Well, perhaps it's unstructured chronology and pieces is what makes the Quran amazing. Try doing that with someone's PhD thesis or some novel, you will ruin it. BUT the Quran makes sense and is inspirational - perhaps THAT IS THE CHALLENGE?

  • lol good thing the quran is simpler too understand, you seem to confused
