Martin, the Torah is more or less the same thing as the Old Testament.
I have a biblical question, if anyone would care to field it:
What is the message of all those boring "so-and-so begat so-and-so" passages?
Yes. I think that most scholars attribute the Tanakh, which corresponds more or less to the OT, to the 6th century BC. I can't remember exactly, though. Most of the NT is supposed to have originated in the first few centuries AD. The Qur'an was revealed from 610-632 AD and the order of chapters was standardized in the 650's. It's important to point out that most Christian churches have their own respective versions of Biblical canon and many of these weren't finalized until the 16th and 17th centuries. There is only one Qur'an.Approximately when was each written? Does the Bible (Old and new Testaments) pre-date the Koran?
Yes, many times. Here are a few examples:Is Jesus mentioned in the Koran? If so, in what way?
Not by name, no. Some Muslim scholars have speculated that the Bible refers to events in his life and that he fulfills certain Biblical prophesies.Mohammed is not mentioned in the Bible, is he?
Thankies,

When the angels said: O Mary, surely Allah gives thee good news with a word from him whose name is the Messiah, Jesus, son of Mary, worthy of regard in this world and the Hereafter, and of those who are drawn nigh. - 3:45
And We sent after them in their footsteps Jesus, son of Mary, verifying that which was before him of the Torah; and We gave him the Gospel containing guidance and light, and verifying that which was before it of the Torah, and a guidance and an admonition for the dutiful. - 5:46
And when Allah will say: O Jesus, son of Mary, didst thou say to men, "Take me and my mother for two gods besides Allah"? He will say: Glory be to Thee! it was not for me to say what I had no right to (say). If I had said it, Thou wouldst indeed have known it. Thou knowest what is in my mind, and I know not what is in Thy mind. Surely, Thou art the great Knower of the unseen. - 5:116

No problem.
You are an ass, Hister. But I'll say this for you, you're an ecumenical ass.
Did you ever say why you lapsed? I'm curious, was it a real reason?
