As I said in my post, Westerners that try to argue about Islam, with rare exceptions, only manage to look like illiterate fools.
The Quran was in an orally transmitted form for years. It took some caliphs after Muhammad's death to put it in writing, first on bones and leaves. It's 640AD in a forgotten desert without anything but tribes that were never unified, not 2000 in Great Britain, might be relevant, you know? People memorized it whole, and they had to figure out, from memory, when specific verses were revealed and in which context, as context is obviously relevant. When you're 15 minutes from meeting a vastly superior army and after 5 years of peace and stability and in need of legalese and social norms for your nascent empire are two very different situations.
At least do your homework if you try to shit on Islam, and if you still do that, be prepared to have people shit on whatever pet ideology or religion you follow, as all are equally nebulous and filled of thousands years old esoteric lunacy.
