Is there anything in the Koran that changes the fact that Mohammed had a nine year-old wife?
Or that he advocated bloody jihad?
Or that Mohammed claims that Jesus was a prophet, but not the Son of God? Since it was as a Prophet that Jesus claimed His Divinity, if Jesus isn't Divine, then he also isn't a Prophet. Yet that impossible contradiction is the teaching of Mohammed as a Prophet.
Hence: If for no other reason than this, Mohammed is a false prophet.
Which brings us back to the bonfire of the Koranic Vanities in Matthew 7.
Bump!

This isn't in the Quran :) Do you know where this story comes from? It comes from something called the "ahadith", a collection of sayings..supposedly said about or by Muhammed. These sayings were collected and compiled (the most prominent compiler, Bukhari, wasn't even an Arab) about 200 years AFTER Muhammed's death. Many of them contradict each other..and even the Quran itself. For example, there are many ahadith that talk about dogs being dirty etc. However, the Quran actually has a story commonly referred to as "the companions of the cave"..and surprise! It features a dog! The "ahadith" could be compared to the Jewish Talmud...which has some of its own rather disgusting sayings. Should I dig up a few quotes?

I don't know where you learned your theology, but Jesus didn't claim divinity as a prophet. In fact, I don't share your belief that he claimed divinity at all (can you prove that?)...and neither does the Quran. It really all boils down to their belief against yours.
