A recovery and discussion community for those who were once followers of Islam.
General rules:
- Keep memes and low-effort posts for Fridays only, and make sure you add "
(Fun@Fundies) ๐ฉ" to the post title - Remove confidential/personal data.
- Don't call out other users or communities
- Content needs to be in context of the subreddit
- Self-hate and concern trolling is not allowed. We understand that it can get tiring to see numerous dogmatic/extreme Muslims around you which might include your own loved ones BUT that is no excuse for people to then generalise their personal experiences to hate in a general sense people who might just happen to be Muslims. Posts like "I hate my dad because he forces me to pray" are OK however, posts/comments like "As a Pakistani myself, I hate Pakistanis, they are so dumb and stupid" will not be allowed
- Follow the general Lemmy.World policies

Why refute it? It's the circular reasoning of an unsound mind.
The answer is of course all of the contradictions between various versions of different "holy" texts. Which is the infallible version? How can you tell which version is infallible? If something is proven false or contradictory within the infallible version, how would you reconcile that? And if none of the holy texts are infallible, how was the message corrupted? How did something incorrect become a part of the holy text? Mistranslation? Mistake? Deliberate editing for personal or political machinations? If one of those is possible, how can you trust any of it?
A believer of any faith will not find this argument convincing, and a non-believer will find this conclusion obvious.
