Too many Books, too few truths

Good morning dear friend,

I am sure that the Quran was written by intelligent men, as with all the other religious texts, but other than blind faith, what evidence would you offer as to it being the true word of God the Almighty?. Do you not find it insulting of Men to suggest that God the Most Powerful, the creator of everything, is incapable of communicating with all his subjects without the need for third party.

God communicates with us all continuously, all we have to do is listen, we don't need religion to hear the voice of God, if i want to see a miracle all i have to do is look in the mirror and marvel at the engineering feat of my own body, or stand in the garden and wonder over a blade of grass.
So you see my friend i have no need for any text, i have the real thing. My only wish is that the human race would be more respectfull of God's work. A blade of grass in my garden has as much right to the kingdom of heaven as any human, maybe even more rights because it does nothing to destroy God's Creation.

Dear friend, don't depend on books to show you how to behave in the Kingdom of God, listen to what God the Almighty is saying to you instead, that is where you'll find the true word of God.
My very best wishes to you my brother.
