[quote=The Nexerus]The same thing occurs with Islam and the Quran—Muslims believe that the angel Gabriel, as a representative of God, gave Muhammad the knowledge to write what he did, just as he had done with the prophets of the older faiths, whom Muslims recognize as legitimate prophets (including Jesus, even).[/quote]

I don't think this is entirely correct. While Christians accept the concept of divine inspiration, where the spirit of God enters a human and inspires them to write the will of God, in very human language and words within the limited knowledge of the one being inspired, Muslims do not accept this, and do not believe that was the case with the Qur'an or any of the 'Books of God'. They believe that the Qur'an is the exact word of God, conveyed in the exact wording of God from Gabriel to Muhammed who then taught it to his followers orally. It was only compiled as a written book after Muhammed's death.

Anyway, please do carry on, this is quite an interesting debate.
