To Barbara:What's the difference between Adam and Jesus?

Dear barbara,

In the verse you quoted Luke, the writer of the Gospel, says what Jesus think about God. It is not written at the time of Jesus but 50 years later. No one can be sure that Jesus says like something like that.

You wrote that
"If you read the bible you can see how Islam changed and twisted what is true."

Nothing is written about Islam in Bible. Isn't it interesting? Whenever a big event happens Christians find a verse to explain it? How about Islam? There is nothing about it. Quran corrects false information written in previous holy books, which are corrupted to suit human desires. First of all Quran corrects Eve's legacy. Women are humiliated in Bible

"No wickedness comes anywhere near the wickedness of a woman.....Sin began with a woman and thanks to her we all must die" (Ecclesiasticus 25:19,24).

"Do you not know that you are each an Eve? The sentence of God on this sex of yours lives in this age: the guilt must of necessity live too. You are the Devil's gateway: You are the unsealer of the forbidden tree: You are the first deserter of the divine law: You are she who persuaded him whom the devil was not valiant enough to attack. You destroyed so easily God's image, man. On account of your desert even the Son of God had to die." (St. Tertullian)

Jesus is not unique. Lets read this verse from Quran;
Verily, the likeness of Jesus before Allâh is the likeness of Adam. He created him from dust, then (He) said to him: "Be!" - and he was. (3:59)

Isn't it true? What's the difference between Adam and Jesus?
