In this page, we have listed the verses of the Quran, where it contradicts science. A “know-it-all” God would not contradict the reality as expressed in science. This is proof that these primitive books are not from God. It is in the order of the Koran.

2:23

Science Koran 2:23

Are the proofs from the Koran sufficient to convince us that it is from God?

Koran Yes.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Koran 2:23: Proof 1: Nobody can produce a chapter like that of the Koran.

 

Koran 2:109a Proof 2: The Jews and Christians envy the truth that they know the Muslims have, so they try to make Muslims disbelievers.

 

Koran 2:171 Proof 3; When you dispute, make a praying contest between the families.

 

Koran 2:118 Proof 4; Believing comes God. It does not require proofs.

 

Koran 22:15: Proof 5; This is the Funniest. Go hang yourself and then see if it answers your doubts.

 

Koran 3:61 Proof 6; Threats to nonbelievers. The Koran favors this method the most. He does it in hundreds of places.

 

Summary Recycled Koran Proof 7; The miracles from the Old and New Testaments were done by messengers of God. Mohammad claims that he is a messenger from God therefore he is also true. 26% of the Koran are myths from the Testaments and they are brought for this reason...

 

Koran; Proof 8; The miracles of God in creating and maintaining the world and the people. Mohammad claims that he is a messenger from God therefore he is also true. The Koran favors this method. He does it in hundreds of places.

Science: No.

Refuting Proof 1: The Koran is badly written because: 1) It is against science and women, contradicts itself, is cruel and primitive, and contains 26% of recycled myths. 2) It is written neither in chronological order nor by subject but rather by length of chapters which is very confusing. 3) The Koran switches a subject every few verse witch is a sign of confusion. 4) Belief punish The Koran dedicates 41% of the book to direct threats to disbelievers. These thousands of threats make the Koran a very primitive and boring book.

Refuting Proof 2: This is a false proof. People are not evil. People who believe in Islam join it, they don't discourage Muslims to practice it.

Refuting Proof 3: This is a very silly proof. What are you supposed to see at the end of the prayer contest? Koran 2:118; rules out miracles to nonbelievers. Many times he writes that people asked for miracles but all the Koran could offer were threats.

Refuting Proof 4: This is not a proof, it is an admission that the Koran has no proof.

Refuting Proof 5: This is a very primitive and illogical advice. It is indicative of the low quality of the Korans' proofs. =

Refuting Proof 6: This is a very primitive and cruel proof. It replaces dialogue with threats and fear. It definitely does not come from a merciful God. It is indicative of the low quality of the Korans' proofs.

Refuting Proof 7: This proof has 2 parts and the Koran fails on both of them. 1) It fails to prove that the myths from the testaments are true. In Myths Old Testament: The myths of Abraham, Moses, the Exodus, David and Solomon we prove that these myths are not true. 2) The Koran fails to prove that Mohammad is a messenger of God. He did not perform any miracles. Koran 2:118; rules out miracles to nonbelievers. Many times he writes that people asked for miracles but all the Koran could offer were threats..

Refuting Proof 8: This proof has 2 parts and the Koran fails on both of them. 1) As a primitive person Muhammad confuses many natural things with miracles. In God: Science and God we prove it. 2) The Koran fails to prove that Mohammad is a messenger of God. He did not perform any miracles. Koran 2:118; rules out miracles to nonbelievers. Many times he writes that people asked for miracles but all the Koran could offer were threats.
