Can the Koran can be disproven and shown to be in error? If the same principles that disprove the Koran were applied to the Bible, would the Bible be disproven too?RND wrote:The Koran can be disproven and shown to be in error.

Plenty of posts and debates have pointed out the errors of both the Qur’an and the Bible, but the faithful will always find some way of twisting it to their own ends, or else simply dismissing it by claiming you don’t understand.

^That's one possiblity.
Another possibility is that there is no contradiction/error in the Quran. The faithful will try to demonstrate that, but others will dismiss it and claim they are still correct..even if they realize they are at fault.

“What do you think science is? There is nothing magical about science. It is simply a systematic way for carefully and thoroughly observing nature and using consistent logic to evaluate results. So which part of that exactly do you disagree with? Do you disagree with being thorough? Using careful observation? Being systematic? Or using consistent logic?�

Praise be to Allah, the Creator of the heavens and the earth, Who appointeth the angels messengers having wings two, three and four. He multiplieth in creation what He will. Lo! Allah is Able to do all things.
6:100-101
Yet they ... impute falsely, without knowledge, sons and daughters unto Him. ... The Originator of the heavens and the earth! How can He have a child?

6:101 (Y. Ali) To Him is due the primal origin of the heavens and the earth: How can He have a son when He hath no consort? He created all things, and He hath full knowledge of all things.
So where is the contradiction or error?

Allah cannot do all things.
It is a contradiction.

6. 101 Allah can't have a son without a consort.

It is a contradiction.
19:92 (Y. Ali) For it is not consonant with the majesty of ((Allah)) Most Gracious that He should beget a son.
He has created everything and He is All-Knower of all things. How can He have a wife from His creation, who is suitable for His majesty, when there is none like Him How can He have a child then Verily, Allah is Glorified above having a son.
Allah can not do something which is ungodly or beneath his majesty like having a son. God only does Godly things. So it is not a contradiction it is that Allah is far above having a son.
For example Allah is All powerful but Allah can't create a rock that is too heavy and big for him to lift because if he couldn't lift it then he wouldn't be All powerful. This does not show a limitation or a contradiction but only displays how powerful Allah is.
Allah having a son is a contradiction to who he is not him not having a son.
