Islam may have a problem

Carbon-Dated Qur’an May Be Older Than Muhammad, Challenging Islam’s Most Basic Tenets

Carbon-Dated Qur’an May Be Older Than Muhammad, Challenging Islam’s Most Basic Tenets

And it's not just that the paper has been carbon dated mean it's from Mohammed’s childhood, or possibly even before his birth, it's that even THAT flies in the face of Muslim traditional belief about the book. the problem is much bigger than it appears. David Thomas of the University of Birmingham explains:
"According to Muslim tradition, the Prophet Muhammad received the revelations that form the Qur’an, the scripture of Islam, between the years AD 610 and 632, the year of his death…
At this time, the divine message was not compiled into the book form in which it appears today. Instead, the revelations were preserved in ‘the memories of men.’ Parts of it had also been written down on parchment, stone, palm leaves and the shoulder blades of camels… Caliph Abu Bakr, the first leader of the Muslim community after Muhammad, ordered the collection of all Qur’anic material in the form of a book. The final, authoritative written form was completed and fixed under the direction of the third leader, Caliph Uthman, in about AD 650."

    Also… The king James Bible is nothing like the originals. Religion is 99.9% bullshit.
