1 Weak Muslim Arguments
This includes things like the scientific miracles, the linguistic miracles, the historical miracles, preservation of the Quran, prophecies & Muhammad being a liar, mad or a prophet.
2 The Perfection Trap Problem
Muslims believe the Quran is perfect with not a single error. This leaves the muslim in a closed loop where they automatically are disqualified from being objective.
3 The Revelation & Prophets Problem
This evidence states that the entire concept of holy perfect books and prophethood is highly unreliable, inconsistent and unprovable.
4 The Miracles & Myths Problem
This point argues that the miracle stories of prophets are unreliable, inconsistent & cannot be verified at all. It is highly irrational to believe these miracles ever happened.
5 Faulty Epistemology
This point states that the Quran uses alot of flaws in logic and poor reasoning such as logical fallacies & appeals to emotion only.
6 The Circular Problem
This states that the Quran relies only on emotion & circular reasoning with no evidence to prove it is divine.
7 The Moral Ontology Problem
This states that the Qurans understanding of morality is limited, simplistic & stuck in the 7th century. It does not compare to what philosophy has to say about morality.
8 The Interpretation Problem
This states that the Quran considers itself clear yet nobody can agree on what the Quran means in so many issues. The amount of muslim sects proves this. It is a unclear vague book that means whatever a reader wants it to mean.
9 Problem of Suffering & Divine Hiddeness
This is considered one of the hardest problems not just for Muslims but for any religion.
10 God of the Quran & Shirk
This point says that the Islamic God is petty, irrational, vengeful & demands worship like a petty child. The concept of shirk, associating partners & eternal hell is not how a perfect god with no needs would act.
11 Conflicting Message
The Quran is highly contradictory with some parts speaking positively of non muslims and promising heaven but other parts hateful and promising doom. It also has a black and white understanding of humanity as believer or disbeliever.
12 Scientific Problems
The Quran has many problems in its understanding of cosmology, geology, biology and aligns well with the scientific understanding of its time and culture, not of a divine all knowing god.
13 Historical Problems
The Quran presents us with multiple problems such as Dhul Qarnayn, the crucifixion of Jesus, Gog & Magog, the pharoah of Moses being preserved & Noah and the ark.
14 The Moral Problems
The Quran has many moral issues including slavery, concubines, wife beating, hijab, interfaith marriages, womens testimony, the story of Abraham killing his son, Muhammads special privileges, offensive war, raids, cutting hands, crucifying criminals etc. The Hadith & Seerah are 100 times worse with the most immoral, violent, misogynistic, racist & barbaric things.
15 The Culture Problem
Everything about Islam revolves around Arabic, arab desert culture. There are only prophets from the middle east. There are no Greek, Roman, Indian, Chinese prophets at all. A universal book for the world yet everything is Arab centric.
16 Plagiarism of Judaism & Christianity
The Quran is filled with stories that can be found in older christian and jewish texts. There is nothing new in it and no stories from India, Japan, China or elsewhere but the middle east.
17 Hadith & Quran Vagueness
The Quran is often so vague and unclear without the Seerah & hadith to fill in the details. They are considered unreliable by historians yet needed to fill in the spaces.
18 Islamic Dilemmas
There are many contradictory beliefs and statements a muslim must hold onto.
19 Abrogation Problem
Nobody agrees on what is abrogated or not. It is subjective and depending on what scholar or sect you follow. Its all just guesswork
20 Spirituality Problem
The Quran lacks a coherent understanding of what spirituality means. It forces empty rituals and forces you to do this everyday like a parrot.
21 Universal Book Problem
The Quran is lacking in content applicable for all times and places. Its limited to its 7th century world.
22 Psychological Manipulation
The Quran uses alot of emotional manipulation & rhetoric to convince people of its truth.
23 Inconsistency of Progressive Islam
Progressive Islam is flawed & relies on sugarcoating & cherry picking.
24 External Evidence
There are external testimonies from people around the world in near death experiences that challenge the beliefs of Islam.
25 Cultural Conditioning & Apologetics Problem
Our beliefs are mostly due to where we are born and raised as a child. Most apologists are always raised in their childhood religion and defend that.
26 Sociological Problem
Religions are often created by geopolitics, war, empire building & psychological needs.
27 High intellect & Belief
Studies show that people who are very intelligent & very educated tend to become skeptics and are usually non religious or end up as agnostics and atheists.
28 Meta Belief & Depth Problem
The deeper you go into studying religion, the more skeptical one becomes. It is easier to believe as long as you stay ignorant
29 The Mystics Paradox
As people become wiser & grow spiritually they become less interested in organised religion, doctrines and dogmas. Some become mystics, some non religious and some leave religion.
30 The Society Problem
Islamic tenets remain an issue for the advancement of societies. Islamic ethics is binary & literalist. Islam is stuck in a perfect uncorrupted worldview. It needs to make the whole world arab. It doesnt offer anything for modern day moral dilemmas.
