I can only attribute my momentary brain freeze to nearing the end of the school year, when nearly all teachers are drained and staggering to the finish line. Yeah, you're spot on correct AND the Koran even includes mention of Jesus Christ as a wonderful teacher and prophet. Just not Divine in any way. Still the fringe extreme Islamic interests in the Turkish government will have a vested reason to deter or reject any INFIDEL expedition from investigating the Ark.
If everything of a Christian or Jewish origin were removed from Islam, there would be little left. The general content of the lives of the patriarchs and prophets and Mary and Jesus is retained to provide the religious and historical context without which Islam’s claims would be meaningless. But everything having to do with what both the Jews and the Christians assert to be the central meaning of their stories is ignored, excised, or explained away. This is done because if what the writers of the Bible say the relationship of God to the Jewish people means for those living in that region and what the deity and resurrection of Jesus means for the world is true, then what Islam is claiming for itself cannot possibly be true.
