Of course I didn't ignore your post on evidence for the reliablility of the Bible. This is what I thought of your work very unreliable because do you know why the Babylonians knewed most of that they knewed movement of the Sun, Moon (Allah is a Moon God name) and even the stars dating back to least between 2000 BCE. They were even able to predict solar eclipses, plot the path of the sun and some planets and measure the lenght of the year and they knewed plenty more. They did all this dating from 2000 BCE - 700 BCE. Then we gone forget the Eygptians, Greeks and Assyrians were also good in Science.

I find it very hard to find a resemblance between Allah (which is Arabaic for father) and your so-called Babylonian Allah which is the Moon. But the Babylonians were knew what they saw. The Israelites do not see the evaporation of rain, they cannot see that the Earth is round, they do not know the correct dimensions for Noah's Ark, the rotation of air, the existence of underwater heat vents (seriously, the Israelites did not scuba dive into the ocean), and more.

Only people who believe in God say such thinks. Look at all the good humanism has done like for example: Ali Sina who is destroying Islam and your religion and his doing the world good not evil.

Convince me how religion is evil. Focus on Christianity. My defense is for Christianity and not Islam. Then show me all the "good" that evolution has done.

Do not assume that science can solve all of man's problems...

May God Bless You All
