Again, this sad lie about Islam being an ancient Christian cult. It is not. As for the moon god thing, I don't know enough but there is evidence to support that argument especially the symbol of the crescent moon in many of the Islamic countries flags. As for the Wycliffe thing, they changed their minds and are looking at the issue again. As for the allegations against Rick Warren, I find them unfounded, I have seen nothing to point to these false statements said about him. The Bible is not required to correct and clarify the Koran. The Bible is for when it is read and acted on, it transforms the person from inside out and helps one to give the skeletons in one's closet to Jesus, whether you are Christian and still have these or you are in the process of coming to Christ. I have not read the Koran all the way, but I did go to a site that was Islamic and had the Quran on the site and I was shocked to read a Surah that was so wrong and yet some Muslims want to say it does not say what it is saying.
Surah 9:5
And when the sacred months have passed, then kill the polytheists wherever you find them and capture them and besiege them and sit in wait for them at every place of ambush. But if they should repent, establish prayer, and give zakah, let them [go] on their way. Indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful.
That type of verses never shows up in the Bible of doing such things.

That type of verses never shows up in the Bible of doing such things.
We are told, even within the pages of the Koran itself, that the Koran (i.e. ‘the collection’) is a mere fabrication – which is an open admission that it is not the original.
Sura 10 is an excellent example of this.
The ayahs leading up to 10.37 are discussing “alhaqqi” (i.e. The Truth), of which we are told refers to only Jesus Christ (4.171).
This is fact.
Therefore, 10.37 is also a continuation of a discussion of Jesus Christ, as thus…
وما كان هذا القرءان أن يفترى من دون الله ولكن تصديق الذي بين يديه وتفصيل الكتب لا ريب فيه من رب العلمين
Wama kana hatha alqur-anu an yuftara min dooni Allahi walakin tasdeeqa allathee bayna yadayhi watafseela alkitabi la rayba feehi min rabbi alAAalameena
10.37 And that this was the collection, that fabricated one, from superior (to) “allah”, and but (a) confirmation (of) Him in His presence, and explaining The Book, no doubt in it, from the lord of the jinn and of mankind.
The first thing that we observe in this ayah is that the Koran (i.e. “alqur-anu” i.e. ‘the collection’) is called a fabrication (yuftara).
Further, this ayah states that ‘the collection’ is shown to be superior to “allah”, but still is a confirmation (tasdeeqa) of Him (allathee i.e. Jesus Christ) in His presence “bayna yadayhi”.
What this means is that while the Koran is admittedly a fabrication of the previous scriptures (i.e. it is not divine in any manner whatsoever), it still contains the Biblical message of Jesus Christ.
Further still, ‘the collection’ is said to explain (tafseela) The Book (alkitabi i.e. The Holy Bible) – of which, the Holy Bible is stated to contain no doubt whatsoever in it (la rayba feehi).
Finally, this ayah concludes with the admission that ‘the collection’ (i.e. the fabrication) is from “allah” lord of the jinn (demons).
Thus….this ayah does nothing to support the false Islamic claims that the Koran was divinely inspired.
It does, however, promote the divine origin of the Holy Bible, and 'The Truth' of Jesus Christ.
