Quran vs. Bible-which is God's word. No one has posted

For one thing, my opponent shows little to no understanding of the religion of Islam, and second he makes the accusation that God would want to get his word down to us as soon as possible, and that he did. Third, he states that(I assume) that a shepherd/merchant is not stable enough to run a country on grounds of what? Well, first of all, to readers, you and I can practically tell that the opposition is very uneducated on Islam as well as Christianity. With that in mind, let me address the first accusation. He states that since the Bible came before the Qu'ran, that makes it his word. The Bible has been altered, and modern day scholars can tell you that. For example- here is a quote from Bart Ehrman- a New testament scholar- "The Bible we now use can't be the inerrant word of God, he says, since what we have are the sometimes mistaken words copied by fallible scribes. "When people ask me if the Bible is the word of God I answer 'which Bible?'" The Codex - and other early manuscripts - omit some mentions of ascension of Jesus into heaven, and key references to the Resurrection, which the Archbishop of Canterbury has said is essential for Christian belief. " http://news.bbc.co.uk... Also with that in mind, don't you think that God would want to give the true word back to his people in the form of a pure and unaltered word. We, unlike the Christian Bible, have only one version of the Quran while the Bible has many versions and translations. The Quran, also unlike the Bible, is in its original language passed down for 1, 500 years. The Bible, like Mr. Ehrman said, has been copied and copied many times and translated into many different languages and has been altered. The most ancient Biblical text even omit Jesus' ascension into heaven while the Quran omits nothing from its first state. So again, don't you think that God would want to restore his word to mankind after it has been altered? Let's skip down to the third, as this is the most interesting accusation. "Islam was invented by a Shepherd/merchant," says the opposition," and Christianity was invented by Constantine." Really? What about the gnostics and the Jewish Christians, who were the early Christians. "The earliest followers of Jesus composed an apocalyptic, Second Temple Jewish sect, which historians refer to as Jewish Christianity."http://en.wikipedia.org... However, it seems that the late Christians(underline late) were actually during Constantine's(Council of Nicaea) time. "The First Council of Nicaea in 325 is commonly used to mark the end of early Christianity...""http://en.wikipedia.org... Please note that Constantine converted from paganism or some other religion so this couldn't possibly mean that Constantine invented Christianity if there were already Christians living in Rome at the time and he was converted. "The Roman Emperor Constantine the Great converted to Christianity following his victory at the Battle of Milvian Bridge in 312."http://en.wikipedia.org... I have a question for the Godhand, what about David? Do you think just because David was a simple shepherd who loved to tend to his flock of sheep and sing songs unto the Lord, was not sane enough to run a country. Because, obviously according to your Bible it says that David was handpicked BY GOD through Samuel to anoint David to become king. Obviously after Saul's death, David became one of the greatest kings who ever lived. He was obviously sane enough to run a country after Saul. And he reigned over a big country don't you think. So your argument there is week, because if David can do it, why can't Mohammed(PBUH)? And you do know that Mohammed(PBUH) conquered Mecca with a force of more than ten thousand men and with minimal casualites, took control of it. Think now, Mohammed had conflicts with the Meccans because he threatened to get rid of the religion of their fathers and the meccans had a pretty large army. http://en.wikipedia.org... People even submitted to Islam because of this man after the Battle of Tabuk because they were afraid of being attacked. http://en.wikipedia.org... So, for a shepherd, this man sure did succeed in uniting and reigning over kingdoms. And Islam is also one of the fastest growing religions, so keep that in mind. Also realize, this man wasn't literate, he couldn't read or write his own name and look at the word he produced. Some people were converted to Islam because of the Quran's poetry, you can't say that's not a work from God.
