The Korn IMO is relatively coherent compared to the Holy Babble. My opinion.
As to faith. Religion and philosophy asellm has always been about finding some peace in a chaotic dangerous world.
If you get upset over a few words om your beliefs than you do not understand religion or philosophy. It is about a sense of well being.
If not then your beliefs are just an affectation, an external ornament for show. That is why I ask theists how does faith manifest in their daily life and never get a real answer.
Academic debate does not equate to understanding religion. I doubt most theists of any kind really understand it.
If we're talking bible and koran we're discussing translations of translations of translations. That amounts to hearsay at best.
From my reading of the JKoran the intent was to set up a framework for society, in this case a theocracy. In the day there were progressive elements. Not what we imagine today but rights for women and children. In contrast Torah books books were written by unconnected groups at different times and outside of Leviticus and 10 Commandments there was no real structure.
